  1. That’s the kick Garlett should have done last week. We look so lethargic, lucky to be this close.
  2. Lewis an excellent kick for goal.
  3. Hogan had a terrible start.
  4. That Hogan handpass to Melksham is everything that is wrong with our ball movement.
  5. I've been banging on about this for a long time but our decision making when we take a mark is atrocious. If you are going o play-on then play-on straight away, otherwise get right back behind the mark (far enough so you can kick back over the man on the mark and not on an angle) and give yourself space to take a kick without any pressure. Too often in that last quarter we rushed the ball when there was no need and didn't use our full seven seconds.
  6. If we beat Adelaide I give us a 40% chance of making finals, if we lose I think it will about 10%.
  7. Melksham’s one-handed marking attempts need to be coached out of him too.
  8. I like how we allowed Stewart to play loose despite the fact we were dominating the midfield and had no trouble getting the ball forward.
  9. Garlett out.
  10. Tyson is at Trengove levels of slowness now. Must be his knee, surely.
  11. Have we moved O. McDonald off Hawkins yet?
  12. Frost actually got within a few metres of Hawkins while O. McDonald wasn’t in the same postcode.
  13. That Garlett kick and O. McDonald playing five metres off Hawkins all night. Good stuff.
  14. Menzel out would be massive.
  15. The spine is there, some genuine star players already which we never had. It's just the rest of their team is woeful. SOS was terrible at GWS, some of his top five picks there make Prendergast look good. If only we took Curnow instead of Weideman.
  16. I don't rate Tyson and I've been saying he's too slow longer than most, but this is his (last) chance.
  17. This is Tyson's chance with Viney out of the team. He needs to show he can still win the ball in the middle.
  18. I got WiFi in plane, what’s happening?
  19. There was always football games being played, but there was never one set of rules or code. Different schools had different rules and so on. Even Rugby Union wasn't actually a code that it is today until 1871.
  20. From memory he played one decent pre-season game for us and that's about it.
  21. To be fair, we've gone back to we were before said bucket was dropped.
  22. Fun fact: I'm going to miss tomorrow's game as I will be on a plane (assuming it doesn't have WiFi). The last time this happened we lost by 186 points.
