I heard she got a selfie with Harmesy before the Geelong game and she was so nervous/excited/psychotically obsessed that she just stupidly held her phone up and didn’t say a word, and Harmesy had to take the selfie since he, unlike her, wasn’t catatonic. 
 

Cool under pressure. To be fair I imagine all you were thinking was ‘hands to yourself, hands to yourself’. 🤣

Yeah and the bugger did keep his hands to himself. So much for playing hard to get. 🙄

Bennet was a perfect, goal-kicking example. With almost no lateral force exerted, he also gained incredible distances, straight as an arrow. He was a really big bloke, too - but made a consistent effect to contact the ball as low as possible - the start of a straight kick, following through with the regulatory knee/thigh and then the extension of the lower leg in line.

A perfect model for Gawn - whose stylised approach and delivery throws him off-centre, out of target line; often, sky-scraping the elevation of the ball in its trajectory. If he'd kicked the ones he has missed this season, we'd still be top of the ladder and headed for the Premiership.

 

It's settled then, DB for new goalkicking coach.

He'd probably do a very good job at that task. He's not the sort of bloke to mess around with - very serious, almost intent and he's as big as Barry Round - except meaner. Heaven help those who fail to learn under such tutelage.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
