We didn’t play terribly, we actually disposed terribly including kicking for goal. We actually now hold the league record of 40 for F50 interceptions. We had 20 more inside F50’s. We kept Blues to lowest score under Voss. If we kicked straight we win by over 10 goals. That is not terrible, but disposal was.

Judd McVee fantastic. JVR best game. Bowey playing his best game of the season when hurt. Very disappointing. Langdon best game also.

Not much better. Get our disposal right and it will be better.

58% kicking efficiency is as bad as it can get. 66% overall same as last week. Get that right and we are so much better.

You can have less interest, now that he will stay a Sun for 4 more years. What do you think of Andrew? I wonder if the Suns are not as thrilled with him, as they were when they drafted him with pick 5. I just wonder if we are still interested in him as a long term player and could get him cheaply, given they need later picks for Academy players and may be happy to save his salary. He could be a project player for us, if he could be physically developed and his brother is an NGA of ours. Just spitballing.

This will be a real test tonight.

Hopefully, we need him and another key forward, firing for the rest of the year.

But he might be in the years to come.

Certainly not at the moment. Give Watts the ball last week a couple of times, instead of Harmes and Spargo when they kicked points from 30 out and we would have won. A 196cm, accurate and long kicking Watts, would certainly help our current side.

If Watts was with us now, he would be best 22 every week.

Since I left you.

Tells you where the Coach thinks BBB is at and he is probably not wrong.

That’s the positive.

JVR 193 Smith 191 Fritta 188. McKay 203, Curnow 194, Silvagni 193 or so.

We look to have a very small forward line this week.

And he is our one tall key forward on the list. We need another desperately and Verrall to also develop into one.

Thanks for the compliment and I do receive the post as you intended.

Yes that’s what I said and what I saw. Hard tough tackling has been stopped because of uncertainty with the MRO and Tribunal. Will Schofield last night said the Cerra and Laird decisions were laughable and players didn’t know what would be acceptable in tackling. Drew Jones agreed with him.

He would be great, but just can’t see it happening.

On 360 they said that the North President put out a statement saying Clarkson had been cleared and that it was the right decision, as she had seen all the documents. What’s that about? Really? Also said that two of the complainants “Zac and Amy” weren’t indigenous Australians. What does that mean? Is there a suggestion of bad treatment to non indigenous players or partners? It’s all very confusing.

Don’t think you will get a lot of arguments on that. Interestingly they only spoke about his forefinger as the one near the eye, while in fact, his middle and ring fingers were right over the eye.

Will Schofield just rubbished the Tribunal and said Cerra and Laird decisions were laughable and have made it less certain how to tackle. Drew Jones also rubbished the Tribunal.

Another loss for Ando. Zorko unsuccessful.

I don’t think it is in any way an exoneration. It is just simply that no adverse findings are made, because only one side has presented any form of statement and the party paying the bills for the panel have forced this outcome. No allegations have been properly tested and the Investigation has been stopped and brought to a crashing end, as another “deal” by the AFL.
