I'll take 3% at this point! Second time ever in the round of 16, it's a great feeling!

We've done it! These last two games have really typified what this Soccer's team is about, relentless work rate and working to a plan. Matthew Leckie has been a great contributor for so long and his beautiful goal was reward for his work so far in this tournament. Once we scored that and went to 5 at the back you knew they were ready to bite down and put in a good shift for the rest of the game. It's the World Cup people, anything can happen. Dare to dream!

Definitely not Macca! Caught up on a bunch on mini matches last night. Definitely expect this thread to ramp up come the round of 16. Despite the location and other controversies surrounding this WC, the football played so far has been brilliant I reckon.

The only 'magic' thing about magic round is the magic most of us will need to be there in person.

He'll make Gawn's story look like a picture book! 😛

Patience is a virtue.

Seeing a few Lever comparisons here, from the looks of it his one one defending is his main strength with an intercepting flavour. Sounds more like May

Beware Count Tracula and Kozzie. In Thickness and in health.

Frozen bananas aren't the same.

Well we just drafted a guy from WA. Long live threads like these..

So how did Barnett slide so far? Edit: HS made an error and said pick #53.

I AM THE LAW!

Ran out of bananas so no breakfast smoothie this morning. Was not happy to say the least..

There's usually a high number of retirees that are moved on my their club and a number who feel they still have it. It wouldn't be a shock if someone in his position nominated would it?

Yeah both good comparisons. Frame wise he looks a bit like Hipwood.

Oh sorry I meant in terms of coin LH. Draft capital wise they got a very very good deal. Happy for him to have some personal success but yeah no flags.

Reckon they might shut him down? Surely he gets back? Although with that line there's more chance of that big hit, gotta protect the merchandise.

That was my take when watching his highlights in the lead up. I think he'll bulk up and put on some size but I do feel that this will generally be his frame. Hopefully we play to his strengths and get a nice one-two punch with JVR as the ruthless aggression forward and MJ as a lead and mark.

Boy did the Ravens lay an egg in that one..

Did very well Gorg. Plenty of playmakers on the roster, just a couple of key players short it seems. Packers and Eagles was a real fun watch! Blankenship's interception was a key moment in the game but even better was Mike Tirico's call "You sunk my Blankenship!".

Missed it, last night was NFL catchup night in my household 😝

Pfft, there's a highway right here for them. If go home factor doesn't involve a plane then I'm not interested 😛

If we're going to have a sub then I'd prefer this version. Take the faking of injury and empty threats that club doctors will lose their license aspects out of it.

The Dockers paid almost purely for potential and the hope that it will come through. It's a good investment but absolutely a risky one, there's no way around that and there's no way of knowing until some time passes.

Couldn't agree more and honestly I think you if don't have that attitude you don't survive as a key forward in this game.
