Can you do a Goad Gallop?

 

[Samsquanch]

Better to do that today tho...

Provided he learns from it.

Just thinking about it, Chom's opportunity to give a whack to young Harvey during games will be pretty limited so he had to do it today. I don't see Chom playing too many VFL games this year.

It’s about time we got a bit angry onfield we have been pushed around for way too long

Thats a different anger.

Sheez, Powell, Daniel

^ Best 3 on the ground, in that order for me.

Duursma was really good. Phillips provides an important defensive element in our midfield that feels right when he's in there. Thought Parker was a little underwhelming but it's a preseason run around.

I like LDU, Sheez and Powell as the starting 3 in the middle with Phillips the 4th off the bench. Guys like Parker, Simpkin and Mckercher to run through there

300% worth of CBA TOG. For mine, to begin the season, ideally we'd have minutes split :
LDU: 75%
Powell: 70%
Sheezel: 65%
Phillips: 50%

That leaves 40% for Mckercher, Parker and Simpkin. Sometimes we might throw Zurhaar or Curtis through there.

I'm okay if Sheezel has less CBA if he's playing that 4th mid role, where he immediately pushes up from half forward.

The centre bounce can be more structured and you need a defensive aspect, but after the bounce Sheezel is essentially a full time mid, either way.

If you can win the centre bounce clearances with Xerri, LDU, Powell and Phillips then you may as well have Sheezel forward of it. But if he is needed in there then he needs to be there.

Still no link - anyone else still waiting?

Its the missing link

At one point I reckon we led the league in half time brawls started when five goals down

I dont know how to take Charlies behaviour in this intraclub. I think he was a bit of a knob to be fair. There was quite a few moments where I questioned his mental capacity under pressure

I think he just had some pretty basic errors, that were then accompanied by some self anger, and multiplied by one Chirpy Harvey. Don't make the blue, Harvey has less to chirp about. I like Chirpy

Boom was one of the chirpiest blokes in footy

I’d hope the Chom/Cooper stuff is a group of blokes who are so ****ing over losing and want to fix the tag as the easy beats.
I doubt the players harbour any ill feelings towards Coops. Chom is as competitive as they come and Coops might be a cocky prick but he is playing for his football future.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

had a strong game
kicking very good
provided good run

Bailey Scott is 3 times the player Stephens could ever hope to be.

 

[rickety]

I get Robert Flower vibes from FOS, wonderful mover, skilful and good overhead like the great Demon no.2

Superb footballer. Him, Greg Wells and Garry Hardeman were my 1st footy faves before making the cross to Arden St at the age of 6!

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Everyone on here is so ****ing pessimistic.

If pessimism had a cheerleader on here you'd be dressed in a tight pleated skirt and a boob tube.

They're probably having a beer laughing about it right now. Just a couple of young bulls butting heads .... they'll be right.

Agree. The other clubs have been bullying us on and off the field for a very long time now, it's about time the tables turned. That's why I liked the aggression between Chom and Coops.
They're team mates. Could have been a bit of banter between them.

Yep all stars of the game

 

[franjon]

That is incredibly ******* high praise. From memory, Robbie was perhaps the best wing man of his generation.

If he is only a quarter as good as Robbie, then we have a very good player.

No offence to Robert, but Keith Greig was probably better. Actually not probably.

Two Brownlow Medals says absolutely.

 

[Augustine]

I’m scarred on mercurial small forwards. They’ve just all turned out shit recently - Phoenix Spicer being the worst of the lot.

So I’ve been very cautious on Bobby HJ. But that was the best I’ve seen him play. He was genuinely one of the best players out there today. I’d love to see him make it because we’ve lacked that type of player for a decade

 

[The Nostradamus]

Bailey Scott is 3 times the player Stephens could ever hope to be.

Didn’t show it today for starters

Is 3 times worse a kick tho

Which isn’t surprising one is a top 5 pick the other a 3rd rounder

Stephens is scared of his own shadow

Scott the twig is too

Don’t bother arguing with him mate haha

This is why I think people are way too harsh on chom on here

 

[Nylex]

Did Will Dawson play today?
Thought I saw he was picked for the pink team?
Hopefully he’s tracking ok with the shoulder surgery recovery
