i'm very curious as to whether he stays as a wingman his entire career or eventually shift to being able to rotate into an on-ball role

his ability to break away from the contest is a weapon

Feel for Harley Reid. His plight is not dissimilar to that of Jack Watts in terms of expectation. Even more so of course. And I just wonder if playing for a team so bereft of structure and talent will end in unfulfilled potential and bad habits. 

go get him, tim lamb

1990. Was almost unheard of to do that to the Hawks back then. Then we got a week off due to a final being drawn, and subsequently gave WCE their first ever finals victory.

1990 was indeed a year that could have been.

the exceptions that proved the rule

i was sitting high up in the ponsford; the only row behind us filled up and the chap sitting behind us looked through the gaping hole where the southern stand was being built and said "huh...you can see the dandenongs from here"

you couldn't see what was happening deep in the forward pocket underneath us tho

the half time switch of petty to a defensive forward role on aliir was inspired

I think Derm rates us, how couldn't he. Derm loathes us though, and it eats him up inside that the Dees are a quality side.

i think derm just recalled beating up on us his entire playing career and, as such, considers us inferior

an inherent bias

OUT: Hore

hore to be the sub again

We do have to acknowledge the umpiring, too. Sparrow's fourth quarter goal came after two massive throws from Brown and Fritsch. We got a really good run with 50/50% decisions in the first quarter, too.

But then again, they got a goal early from a mark that was further out of bounds than the Higgins goal last week, and they got a goal from the Rozee flop that should never have been a free.

And they can't blame the umpires for Ratugolea's brain fade.

the maggots had no effect on the result i don't reckon

it was a super game of footy which, in the cold light of a win, i can bask in the glory of watching

another jt special

his defensive efforts are even more impressive than his run and carry

the amount of whinging about the umpires - from both sets of supporters - is pretty extraordinary

imo that was a win for the ages

two top 4 sides who failed in finals going hammer and tongs 

great footy to watch as a neutral; absolute nailbiter as a fan

6: neal-bullen
5: gawn
4: oliver
3: rivers
2: brown
1: langdon

apologies to everyone in the backline, who were unreal i thought

two super important goals in the last minute

so good sideshow bob

three frees should've been there and they got the last of em 

clock em in the head and they tend to get frees

lever has gotta be jabbed up with the way he's kicking

+ gus

two players down on the list

it's a great contest; hating / loving every minute

good contest currently

maggots haven't made as much of a difference as some on here think

ratugolea areas

clayton on butters ain't gonna work

when you play that brand of footy you'll lose some close wins

Tholstrup is getting better each week. What position would he take at AFL level

He’ll be a mid who can drift forwards I think

I don’t mean to labour the point, but Lobb’s accurate goal kicking at one end vs Jefferson’s inability to convert at the other is the difference between the sides at the moment. Given who Casey have unavailable, it’s a bloody good effort to still be within a few goals

you don't mean to, yet you keep doing it...
