Straight Sets Simon

No, he plays.

When we got Oliver I was excited because he was in a similar mould to Cripps. Both already are stars, Oliver has more polish but Cripps is more of a physical beast.

Fritsch almost looked better on a wing, which is scary because he has looked bloody good in the forward line.

Spargo instead of ANB I think.

What about the bloke who almost died during Hogan's Heroes on Anzac Day Eve?

It's a fair effort against any opposition.

We've not lost a quarter since I started this thread. You're welcome.

This week the two teams will be playing for the Johnson-Garlett Pennant.

Whilst his kicking needs to improve, I think the biggest problem is that he is always kicking while under a lot of pressure. A big part of that is he is very predictable with where he runs - always in straight line. For a player with his pace, he rarely has much space to execute his skills properly. In short, he needs to develop a sidestep so that he can shake opponents off in close to then give himself space to break away from the opposition.

The Charlie decision is correct but the Ed one is ridiculous.

Blocking isn’t even that bad.

We all know Neeld isn't great but typical Essendon to throw an assistant coach under the bus.

I really like Brown as a player but this is spot on, did it against us a lot too.

Is he a chance to replace Weideman this week?

Cunnington is a very good player, but since his debut Oliver has been the best handballer in the game by some margin.

ANB was better this week, but I still feel more comfortable when he doesn't have the ball, Tyson is the same.

Kill me now.

Easily best on ground. Kicked crucial goals when the game was there to be won.

What.

Playing players in their best positions.

He did it pretty well when Gawn was injured last year. Besides, the ruck component of that role is very small.

Weideman's playing a role, but Pedersen would play that role even better.

Good Tyson has been rarely sighted since 2014.

That's what I was getting at. I didn't notice him much in the last quarter.
