Garlett may have been a bit quiet, but he has laid 6 tackles this evening.  You can't fault that effort, even if we all wish he had hit the scoreboard a little more.

 

Nice leading chest mark to Hogan. With how many entries we get, we should see that from him 10 times a game.

 

Hogan has been reading the forum!

he led, they kicked it too him, he marked... simples

edit: kicked the goal too, the perfect finish to a perfect passage of play

If Oliver isn’t a pure star, I don’t know who is. Seriously he is insane.

FFS, we're over 50 points up in Darwin. You'd think we're down by 80 with some of the negative Nancy stuff

I was just about to write - I've done a hell of a lot of whinging for what's going to turn out to be a 10-12 goal win!

 

I think the changes this week have been ok


Lewis fresh kicking the footy at every opportunity. Bend down old man.

No, but you can fault his lack of impact.

Looked superb, but it's hard to do when there are generally 8 other players standing in front of him most of the time.  If you give him the space he'll lead up and mark it 9 times out of 10.


Note to self eff ark is sweary

child 1 is going to be wearing a Fritschkrieg jersey. Lotta love

Probably because we should be up by 80

For his first game back for a while, I'll take 13 touches, 6 tackles and a goal.  He can build on that in the coming weeks and I've liked his pressure in the forward half of the ground.

22 inside 50s for Freo could well be the impact we wanted from Jeffy and his tackles.

Jeez reading this thread... Who knew we'd win by ten goals.

With respect, mate, that is a very, very long bow.

Self protection mechanism - complain until siren sounds with a win. Based on work cover advice

8:8 since half time v 5:15 in the first half

I think it's just a bit of pragmatism based on the significantly under-strength and youthful opposition.

We're not going to get away with this amount of wasted forwards opportunities against a half decent team.  

Around the ground we've been fantastic though.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
