Re: AFL 2nd Semi Final - Geelong v Fremantle/Hawthorn, TBA
Stupid rubbish it would have been too. He would have competed on a night not for tall forwards, and yet still been bagged. Oh and in general, I did a statisical analysis during the week on our games at the G this year and they prove that bar Stokes, all our forwards have been borderline useless in averages terms (in our 7 games at the G), and yet everyone singles out the big fella. Grr. How about we actually dominate a game at the G heh? Shows how ridiculous some people's expectations (not bagging you, more a general point), the bloke's kicked more than Mooney or Hawk this year and we still pretty much practically expect him to part the red sea and walk on water...crazy expectations. He should come in though, has earnt his spot, and will make a big difference because he's a big body and doesn't get outmarked, and has earnt his spot. I just hope we don't expect because our best contested mark is back in that it's going to come easy, we need 22 bloody hungry contributors.
I agree on Hawkins and Blake, personally I'd sit Hawk out for a week but Bomber won't...sorry Blake.
Well thank god Pods didn't play last night.
The way that was played I think he would have been ineffectual and would have copped the label of 'can't play at the MCG' and he would have been dropped.
Plenty of players had patches where they went missing vs the saints.
But for mine I thought both our rucks were pretty useless. Yes Ottens was as bad as Blake.
Hawkins was very ordinary too. So I guess the logical step is to move him into the ruck again and drop Blake for Pods.
