Anyone notice that the club gave Kynan his father's first jumper number when he started.  No. 41.

Perhaps playing a different role SthSea22, we shall soon find out.

I simply cannot justify his inclusion 

10 touches per game

I am assuming tagger?

Cant wait to see what hair style Nathan Carrol is rocking when he presents his jumper to Brown

How does Kynan get a game in front of AMW?

Not sure, but suspect it's based on the club seeing AMW as a defender, and therefore has to replace, Bowie, McVee or possibly Salem.  Not saying they are in great form, but they aren't our poorest contributors either.
Brown seen more as a small forward currently, and as such there is an opening in the team.

So McAdam can't get another crack

Fortunately for you, we have the match committee to do that role, you can take the night off 👍
10 players had 10 or less touches for the game when we played the Pies a couple of weeks ago.  The kid isn't going to be a midfielder yet.

Asking the wrong guy :)  but he looked ok in the VFL a couple of weeks back, but did very little in the AFL in his first 3 games. Maybe he's been asked to work on some areas of his game in the VFL and will get another crack soon.

Bound for the Swans, as his third club, next year then?

Game-saving tackle for his first touch; forget the dime-a-dozen ”goal with his first kick” - that’s a memorable stat to be really proud of.

Like his Dad, first game was a cliff-hanger win - Doggy’s being a famous Princes Park 2-pointer against Carlton.

Well done young fella!

May I ask where people got the 'VFL 10 disposals a game' figure from? The source was not reality.

And for the other thing people were sulking about; players making their debut as sub is completely normal. Kynan wasn't even the only debut-sub player that day.

 Anyway, Brown looked like a nervous excited kid the whole time, but I'm glad his son quickly found his focus! 😁

Just watched replay what the hell is wrong with Clayton?

Absolute liability so far off its sad to watch

6 years to go and $6000000 What do we do ?He is a shadow of his former self hard to watch

Clarko doesn't think so had a hard tag all game.

Everyone knows Oliver is struggling at the moment and everyone is also terrified of being the one who plays him back into form because it would be a disaster for any opponent.

Oliver regaining form would be like giving back the missing limb of a three-legged dog. We'd go sprinting just for the joy of it and there would be no restraining us.

Only got 10 minutes ,  in my view should have been much longer.

but that 4 point saving tackle, quick and a hard tackle saved us last night. Will live for a long time those 10 minutes.  And the faces of old Dog and Yse sitting in the stands  really great. 
 

go Dee’s    A win is better than a loss but a zero score in the last .  ?

[whatwhat say what 23,627]

1 kick, 1 tackle, 21 championship data ranking (aka supercoach) points

that's impact, folks!

[chook fowler 19,734]

Will he line up for Casey today?

100% agree on playing time. If your going to announce a debut and make a big deal of you should probably do so if you plan to play the kid in the 22. I think the same for any debutant. Sitting on the bench burning nervous energy isn't great IMHO.

His was close to another Schache debacle.  Really Simon has just scraped in by his teeth in this one.

Slow learner Simon imagine the ruckus if he didn’t use our sub AGAIN.  

Instant dismissal or resignation!!    

Gee his match day methods are archaic at times.

Unbelievably negative and so disappointing just shows why he should have let Josh Shak Attack have his 15 mins in the sun. We might have won!!!!!

Nathan Brown's exposed authenticity makes me a little emotional.
