  1. Always been quick. Ask any knowledgeable Bomber fan..( there's maybe 5 lol ) theyll tell you two things... they'll never forgive Pig for defecting...and Milkshake was always quick.. sometimes lethal...often erratic. That annoyed a lot of Bombers. My eldest lad ( from blended family ) is Essendon ( as is sister ) ...he always rated Milkshake...said we had a bargain. I wasn't convinced early...he said...just wait. There weren't many he laments having left Ess. Pig and Melksham were excellent pickups in his view.He is/was right
  2. Max was right . Umpire wrong. McKay judged to kick where Max stood...NOT allowing where the mark was. Max a little clever was denied by umpire error.
  3. I still think he was within the actual mark..his action made it look otherwise perhaps...ie.he moved forward....but for me it was from behind the mark. All moot now.
  4. Possibly among most astute observations. Im still not sure if we've the ideal makeup down back. Thats not to bemoan anyone as such. Oscar continues to impress...and tbh that's surprised me ( gladly ). Hibberd is a gem...Lewis ...a capable General... Nifty ...the quiet assassin. All in all very good components....and yet im not quite convinced/ comfortable that it's quite clicked properly. Lever is growing into a role. Has talent to burn. He'll adjust his decisions. He did yesterday. Against better teams he's crucial.
  5. There was a sense of group niggle wasn't there. Unsure whether instructed or just a thing but they were just as inept with this as they were with the football ! Oh...JL ...IS.. an absolute dh. Even some of those with me yesterday...(family..partners ) who are Blues were groaning !!! Mind you.. there was a lot of groaning from them ?????
  6. Possibly not THE catalyst.. definitely a reason. He is far less 'reactionary' than many inside mids... especially ours !! Some players are mercurial in that when they possess the ball they suddenly seem to have space where there's none. Gus has a slightly different take on that....he seems to harness 'time' . These extra moments that manifest allow him to better think the next move. He's generally very clever with possessions, seldom wasteful... that's gold, that's class. Where some players can often be where they ought not, Brayshaw manages to hunt the ball and be where he can effect something. It's a rare commodity...physicality with nous. He is very important to a successful best 22.
  7. Tbh id have to look at a replay. It didn't look like he'd transgressed. I just thought the idiot had kicked too close.
  8. A thoroughly enjoyable afternoon's flogging. They'll be red and blue all over after that jolly roggering.
  9. Umpiring is beyond atrocious
  10. Cant say am overly impressed.
  11. Still happy with gut feeling. 120 defeating scum 72
  12. Trying to drizzle before. Should be ok...just not sunny
  13. Crowd building.... maybe a 1000 ????
  14. Not sure....never bartered one for the other.... Just eaten.
  15. between you and me I could honestly say That things can only get better
