We can't get Pickett, Cuningham, Williamson & Docherty on the park to give us some dash up both ends and it wouldn't hurt for us to go hard for a senior mid again re: Rockliff, Shiel, etc, can't be expecting SPS to play that well every week. Also some glue for charlies hands to get him back to his 2018 form would be nice.

I hope that day comes, and if it does then I won’t even need to eat humble pie, as I’ve prudently / cowardly set out my stall as having no idea as to whether or not he’ll make it!
Wonderful allround performance by the boys today.
As so many have said before
the first half from SPS was outstanding and hopefully the level he can produce consistently
Harry, those hands were so solid all day the boy can take a grab
Walsh continues to amaze for someone playing just his fifth game, his ceiling is so so high
Cripps just leads by example week in week out and os nice to see him smiling a nd happy after the game
Fisher his best game for the year and hopefully he produces this again next week.
So good having Kruezer back out there, he sucha barometer for this side.
Enjoy the win and look forward to the Hawks next week

Woohoo we have a winner.
I really dont want to single out players. There were a lot of very good performances. Some all day some in bits. Which is the normal thing in a match.
Best games by a few.
Harrys hands
Samos kicks
Fishers space to draw opponents around him but no catchy.
Jack..I've said it over and over that blokes like this win you games.
I liked Newman and Plowman and Simpson fighting and fighting... our working it out of defence improves each week.
A ruckman with presence and heart and nouse.
Jones not having to save us time and again.
Blokes that did team stuff.
Walsh icing the cake was special. That is the moment you know the footy gods are with us again.
An oppposition rattled with no answers.
Go Blues.

It’s a great problem to have.
Height got sfa to do with it ,Williamson has wheels and had a penetrating left foot, different players altogether.
FWIW if I was a young fella lining up In the backline I reckon id feel reassured that plow had my back.
Let’s have open robust discussion about what makes us better. Maybe you’re right maybe I’m right.
MSR off the short run, utterly nails it.
Always been an agitator, unless it’s her seedy lot.

Don't record live games. Always been a jinx for me.
**** me. 28 possessions. 75 percent disposal efficiency. Top three km travelled on ground. Kicked a goal.
And yet he still gets bagged. Seriously all Murph baggers:

Gibbo too , the last a game and a half ..been much better ..
It takes our young ones a few games to get used the pace imo
When your 5th game first year mid-fielder runs 16 Kim’s per game it’s got to lift the entire playing list to push harder.
This kid and Cripps will take us to 17 and beyond.
It’s still a long road ahead, but we took a couple of steps forward today and our young talent lead the way.
Strap in, the rides going to be amazing.
Charlie needed a day watching his teammates do it....thats the internal pressure we have missed for so many years
So most things that all clubs experience? I thought it was something serious that couldn't be addressed

His gut running today was outstanding..didn't always get the ball but was lurking around contest after contest ..
Will be our Kane Lambert, both his and SPSs opposite foot kicking stood out today.
This bloke can play, just needs to work into what his role is going to be.
More on the ball to Dave. Just think it’s his go and helps the kids

Good defensive structure all around the ground.
Interesting stat: first 4 games in 2018 we copped over 100 points in each of those games; and 13 in total for the year. This year that number is zero.

What you have to understand is, other sides are going to go him physically in the next month.
They will test him from now on.
That’s the nature of the beast.

Does anyone know why gibbo was played up front up until todays game? He is clearly a better mid
I'm assuming that W sign Walsh made signalling a win?
You know, I share a lot of mutual connections with the Walsh family, all from the same community etc and no matter who and where I ask, I cannot find a single ****ing bad word about this kid. I thought surely there is a bit of arrogance in him? Apparently not.
However this little W symbol along with his ridiculous drive and competitiveness, tells me that he may just have a tiny little bit of arrogance about him that he keeps under wraps.
I like it.
