I am really glad I found Demonland (thanks Browney!). It is really opening my eyes to footy and is a really insightful read. You guys do an ace job.
(Also, embarrassingly, caused me to sign up as a member for the first time in the 31 years I've been barracking.)
I thought he was good - and I agree - give him some confidence that the club backs him. I don't think he deserves to be dropped yet and has a role to play. Unless (note I said unless, not until) he has a run of offs (or there's simply no space due to the opposition that week), back him in.
Couple of goals, some marks, good disposal...
Agree with this. Having max "resting" floating around grabbing marks whilst Tmac is running riot is great flexibility and dynamism. Hard to match. (At least until we run into better opposition).
plus he jagged two. Goals are still goals.
Agree re SYDNEY and Geelong - I think pretty much any team is gettable if a side with Viney plays for 4 quarters with no stranglew$$$nk and no going to sleep for a quarter (both traits lurking below the surface - still to scarred to trust them).
Think Geelong have our measure, they're still a bonza side. Think The same for Sydney.
QBH is the key. Lock away everyone's LR Evoque and ski lodge keys to make sure we're there.
Eagles look hot to trot but hard to tell from over here
Realistically
2 losses to adelaide
loss to port, wce and probably freo (even though they were pus today), SYDNEY, cats, pies
win against gws and others
miss the 8 and rue Max's r1 miss and hawks tigers floggings and not flogging bombers saints
Was it just fatigue in the last 1/4, but we were caught out of position trailing a sainter a fair few times. If fatigue , fair enough. 21 and sunny in brissy next week but sundown early (5pm), hopefully weather not a factor.
