Best game since 2018.

 

Tracc and Gawn were immense.

 

Ive seen a few mention it, but I reckon Langdon deserves a heap of praise. Last week was good, this week we saw exactly why we went after him. Runs and Runs and runs and hit his targets today. 
 

also thought Clarry improved as the game went on. Getting better at picking when to handball and when to kick. Still has to be a focus though. 

Definitely an improvement from Oliver, but that handball to Max was a shocker.

Smashing Hawthorn makes the apocalypse feel way better. 

Oscar has come in and said listen [censored], don’t listen to what Simon says, this is my world and this is how you’re setting up. 

Petrecca is something else. The balance and movement plus  explosion stands out likes dogs balls in an era of ugly footy. Really bringing the joy back for me. 

Gawn took the [censored] all day. 

Oliver and Viney were a driving force. Bullies. 

Brayshaw half good half awful. Which one is really him?

Jackson played a better game than Tomald has for 12 months. Promising stuff. Bennell and Kozzie also played really well up forward. 

So good to see Weed making a difference. 

And Langdon played like what Scully should’ve become. 
 

Speaking of Scully, best part was when a 200 kilo Italian ran away from him like he wasn’t there.

We've been building towards this kind of display. Can't wait until we do it against a good side. Next week hopefully. 

With Jackson do we actually have one of the few, true 'all rounder' type players.

If his tank is good enough he can run around with the midfield, kick some goals in the forward line and take some saving marks in defence. Similar to Gawn in a way, but more athletic and dynamic at ground level.

Exciting!!

Who are the other 4 above him out of interest? Can’t imagine any of them are bossing games like Trac is at the moment.

 

Two of them have only played 3 games.

Within 10 mins we stopped Hawthorn playing the way they wanted. Game over.

Agree. Which is why I am happy to praise the good work, but coaches must continue to highlight the poor decisions. The want to go back into traffic and create issues for himself and then dump a handball to relieve the pressure, which in turn puts another player under pressure. He has to cut it out of his game, but I will back him to do so, as it’s apparent he is working on it

@picket fence   Still want Brown and Joel Smith in the team ahead of LJ? 

Just busting your balls, enjoy the win

Still want us to go and get Ross Lyon?

Neale wasn't great this week. Still susceptible to a tag.

I could easily write about the performance of our Hollywood midfield.

But instead I am going to make special mention of Oscar McDonald. I've been incredibly hard on this kid but he's proved me wrong and making me eat humble pie. He's a complete different player and it's no coincidence that May and Lever are back to their best.

Well done Oscar, you've shut me up for good.

Kozzie and Jackson are going to be something else huh...

No.   Goodwin is the man.

Good four quarter effort. That should be minimum expectation.

Well done Weiderman. Imposing performance.

Yeah just not inside the defensive 50 to Maxy when he is doing his shoelaces up.

The way he moves reminds me a lot of Bontempelli, though maybe that's the hair!

Pathetic effort from Scully really. Didn't even try and catch him.

How good is it to have a real wing man that has a tank and is quick? And knows how to find space. 

I keep hearing about his poor kicking skills but I think he is alright. He was really important in the first half

Totally agree, it’s not out of his game yet, I’ve conceded that. He needs to continue to review it.

Ah me too I agree! But also I thought Clarry Choo Choo shut a few up on this forum up as well
