Can't disagree with much there Joe

[leave it to deever 17,521]

Amother good analysis. Matt Jones a few clangers though but its tough for selectors now to make changes.

[Left-Field 71]

A bit harsh on Tyson perhaps, but otherwise I agree.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

You may as write Tyson's now for every game:

Tyson - Holding the ball

[Adzman 2,154]

Wagner- 2016's surprise packet

Without wanting to hijack Joeboy's thread, you seemingly have a vendetta against the GWS boys in our team Clint.

Yes, they have their moments and yes, there is plenty for them to work on.  But outside of that they bring all of the traits we want in footballers who pull on our jumper and you need to get behind them.  Tyson, Bugg and Frost were all positive contributors to our win today and I think it's disappointing that you're in every thread taking shots at them.  Poor form mate, and as I've said earlier, you're better than that.

There were a few horible and hospital handballs but great intensity from the captain and incredible number of touches. I did think Matt Jones was good today and last week.

Nathan jones coughed it up more than anyone today. Played a good game all the same...

[monoccular 17,575]

Hunt - quite impressive debut 

[rolling fog 1,208]

Tyson seems to be the new Demonland whipping boy...aside from pretty spot on

Tyson - What coach's want...

Seriously 'Clint', the times he gets caught with the ball is when there are no options. He could let it spill but they have been instructed to hold the ball in rather than blindly dish it off.

Better to give away a free and stop play than let the oppo run on with it.

Tyson's work inside was really good today.

 

[nutbean 8,838]

He made a few blues but his positives way outweighed his negatives. I do like that he is not starting to mark well overhead as well.

I do find it interesting that his detractors for today's game, but our captain , who also played a good game today, handballed to opposition more than any of other mids and that has not rated a mention.

How often he's at the bottom of a pack stoppage!? As long as he's not getting pinged I don't see a problem, for the time being. 

How that will work under Goodwin, and what his vision is for Tyson, who knows...but it doesn't look like he's going anywhere whilst Roosy's in the box. 

His blocking and tagging work on Pendlebury around the stoppages was brilliant IMO

Joeboy, I'm not quite sure what you mean by "Kennedy - Tough little bigger"

Typo? Or is it some clever wordplay which is too clever for me, either because it's the entry after Kent's "Tough little bugger", an ironic reference to his size or something to do with his playing against his old side? 

Joeboy - got me stumped.

It's the Kiwi pronunciation, no might be the South African version now I think about it.
