Was it? I have an open mind but if your taps aren’t resulting in better clearance numbers it doesn’t matter. it seemed to me that we were losing the clearances - what do the stats say? it’s like bombing the ball into the fwd line with “no connection” there is not the connection we used to see between Gawn and the midfield taps without connection are worth what?

Great highlights for his first game speaks to why he has calmly slotted back into that role this year

Why have Brisbane started badly? any key outs for them?

The amount of territory the guy covers is amazing it means effectively we have more cattle on the park In his first game against Geelong (memorable win) his second effort and goal announced what he had massive tank always wins the 2k trial

The thing BBB does that Schacke doesn’t is present to the half back line to get a mark that helps us exit defence I think Schacke has been tried and tried with us and other clubs and is just too lacking in impact it’s what you bring when the ball isn’t delivered lace out - Jvr bbb make it a contest

ANB is not only an unsung hero but also a great spokesperson for the club This is only a recent example 29 possessions and 2 goals aerobic beast but it’s his leadership his passion for good that most inspires i think he will be captain soon

Gawn too good for soldo

Anb searched for a lead none came and turnover forwards failed there two to tango

Boak father time on the line

Fritter!

Good kick Dixon into corridor

Petty fail

Sh@&$ from Max

Rescuers would still be doing them a solid though

Unless they cotton on of course

If he breaksdown it’s alright?

The pluses. I think we tried to lower eyes and hit up more and less dump kicks but I don’t think we had forwards leading to available ball carriers enough. Howes and Windsor showed enough Clarry got through and was handy already the minus Gawn didn’t adapt to Grundy’s tactic which will be copied Do you think running and leaping at the ruck contest would be a better option for Max? Blocking that should be penalised

Pickett beware

Shaping up to rugged Ronnie Andrew’s?

Isn’t Windsor faster?

Great thing having Salem in the mids what he lacks in pace he makes up for with delivery by hand and foot essentially we move one of our best kicks closer to where he can deliver to fwds his tackling and capability below his knees has always been good

No!

If Verral was serviceable both as a relief ruck and as a fwd vs Richmond why not try him vs Carlton? he can rotate through ffw and ruck with schache

Guys he didn’t have to retire because of one concussion but because of a history of them. As deplorable avoidable and unpunished as the Maynard incident was it alone isn’t the reason for retirement.

I thought this guy was worth a look he is third in line behind Darcy and Jackson at Freo
