Makes the win even better. Our club is tough.Same flu that's in the broader community but unlike Scott last year Voss didn't want to use it as an excuse
Some of his defensive efforts were amazing.Well done blues, big mention to Lochie O'Brien he has moved to the next level and anyone who does not recognise that does not understand footy
From me memory one hand was on Cripps' left hand and the other hand knocked the ball out. It's holding the ball I reckon.
I thought it was the same action. Slaps the ball out of his hand and follows through to grab jumper.From me memory one hand was on Cripps' left hand and the other hand knocked the ball out. It's holding the ball I reckon.
I got $3.40 and Sportsbet paid out halftime of the bulldogs gameThe $3 that I took for us to make the finals is looking like money for jam.
Disappointed that I didn't take 70% to make the finals 20% top 4 and 10% for flag.
Regardless of whether it was a free kick or not, my original point was that sometimes, it looks like his thinking is confused. And my theory is that he has the relics of convoluted coaching still running through his mind.I thought it was the same action. Slaps the ball out of his hand and follows through to grab jumper.

I was just genuinely confused as to why we would boo him.
I know I was agreeing with you

Simple equation.The gruop around me confused Kennedy for Parker. I didnt correct them.
The better teams give less timeRegardless of whether it was a free kick or not, my original point was that sometimes, it looks like his thinking is confused. And my theory is that he has the relics of convoluted coaching still running through his mind.
On these occasions, and it is not that often, I think he's having a brilliant year, but he doesn't take the first option, which is fine, but when he doesn't take the second option, he has usually been swamped. And then assuming he hasn't been tackled yet, he is then looking for a third, and relying on his strength to still get it away.
I have seen this on a regular basis and it is something I have seen others say "he's trying to do it all."
We used to need that, but not anymore.
These are delayed views, because I was working for the AEC yesterday.
Cottrell and O’Brien are great examples of what a system does for more limited players. For years, we’ve bemoaned coming up against players we think are bunnies, who then go on to destroy us. David Hale would be one example. But that’s what happens when you put players in a system. They can build confidence in their game because they have confidence in the team’s game.
I don’t care what anyone says about a lid. That second quarter was premiership football. Every single year I’ve watched footy since 1982, that football wins a flag. Our task is to hold it up for longer. Then we win a flag.
The fade-out was qualitatively better than other games. We basically did control the terms on which that last quarter was played. We haven’t done that in other matches.
That said, I do wish our crowds would try and lift the team when we start to slip. After all the heartache, I can understand the tendency to sit back and look pensive. But if there is a concerted effort to find voice and genuinely lift the team during a run-on, then it’s not coming through over the tv coverage.
We could have looked at Williams as a guy we’d recruited to play midfield and been shy again. So credit to the recruiters for sticking fat with Hewett. Like Williams, he’d played midfield at the Swans and done well, but they’d always found other players for their rotations. You can’t overestimate the value of a guy who just does his job every single week. Absolute gun.
100% this although no doubt the coverage may have given it that bent to help with the narrative that we are prone to blowing leads, but it did feel like the supporters went into their shell in the second half.These are delayed views, because I was working for the AEC yesterday.

Before we crown Austin the mastermind he needs to fix the key position player depth issue which has happened on his watch after he delisted 3 in on off season without replacing any of them with like for like.Nick Austin, son of curly, has shown that he can pluck value from anywhere- It is remarkable. He will take our list to a string of premierships.
Instead of chasing a papley- as sos did , he backed his judgement and got us Durdin and Motlop , to add to owies and fish. Suddenly our Achilles heel is our strength. Its looking like the tiger premiership forward line, with 2 elite talls (Reiwaldt/Lynch>> Harry/Charlie) and a fleet of small forwards ( caddy, rioli, castagna, butler etc) . Not sure that we have a player directly comparable to Dusty, but Cripps drifting forward can be pretty unstoppable as well.
Just thought you should know that watching your vids (also Pommy's) has become a standard weekly ritual. Cheers for the top work that you do!
