Left Foot Snap

So not the Adele version then?

I have a slightly different view on Ben Brown and what his inclusion will provide. Now that he is getting some fitness back and his work rate up and back the ground he will demand attention from good defenders and they will not be able to zone off so safely. That in itself provides a variation of pressure. Attention on him will free up others with a lesser defender and can help disrupt the opposition defensive zone which will allow the smaller defensive forwards to create more havoc as there is less support for their defence. If the opposition try to push more numbers back to rebalance this we get an outnumber around the middle. I think the structure will be better. Everyone will still have to apply manic effort and application for it to work as always, but I think it will work quite well, especially once it's settled after a few games. At the moment I don't feel the opposition defence is too unsettled, Tmac roams, they hold Fritta and we have to scrap for the rest of the goals. It may be working enough but it is not optimal. Ben Brown can change the dynamic and help others get into the game. He is also an accurate kick, which would be very welcome.

Ah, thanks.

I normally love your work Ethan, but really struggling for context with this one?

It certainly is easy to forget how young he is.

For me it is usually a beer, and if it's not its a good substitute for what I was meant to be getting ?. I try to avoid the kitchen before lunch....

Fair enough. Not sure if its right but good reasoning.

Glad I'm not paid on that 2 week cycle!!!!

Little Giant Shiraz, from the Barrossa. Has a Wombat on the label. To plagiarise Molly, do yourself a favour. They also do a nice Pinot Gris if you can find it.

Hooded Oranda?? They are known to be quite smart, and delightful.....

Was going to ask how long Tooheys was on board, thanks. Hertz have been around for a long time. I had a training jumper in the mid 80s with Hertz across the front.

We certainly tried to top up with talls in the 2015 draft. So far to no avail. Max King and Hullett were unfortunately busts.

Wish they would hurry up. I want to book accommodation for the Gold Coast game. Your prediction would be only be slightly improved with a 2.20 start for us on the Saturday. Would get to an earlier sitting at the Teppan after the game. Sunday afternoon would be fairly disastrous.

I initially thought you had done a typo but couldn't quite find context, then I looked up piety. Great use of an old word, kudos Deemania. And I agree. Selwood is a sniping cheating little [censored], who I could never understand the afl community's love affair with; and a big reason I hate Geelong. I need to use piety more often in the future, along with f@$k Essendon, but that was a given.

I agree Mr Leg, it is far from time to write him off. But I think he will benefit from a stint in the backline where I think he could excel. Start with spoiling and then evolve into intercept marking. Could be great development for him. We have invested a lot in him, no need to throw it out now when there is still more things to try. He is far from the finished product.

No, the damn umpires are keeping us in it.

I agree with Weid to the backline, but after he adjusts to it at Casey for a bit.

I have no inside knowledge but have a gut feel that in a few years when they start to do worse and loose a little prominence that salary cap anomalies will start to surface. They must be rorting somehow. Have thought that for quite a while.

Wouldn't shout you down, but I don't agree. I think Viney will make a comeback at some point, even if it's to fill the gap between Max and the next. Lever is a good candidate and May is probably too old. I am not sure on Trac still.

That is cruel and triggering Bob!!

See the Bombers shoot up, up....!

Thanks for the effort Deespicable, good read.

Give him a break for a few games then play him in defence for a while.

Not sure I agree with the Max Gawn badge. Always picked her as a Salem fan.

And shorter games and a shorter season, we were coming good save a few hiccups and ran out of rounds.
