It's cold and pissing down too.Except it’s at Marvel
I’ve been trying to think of a comparison for Chito, cos everyone seems to love them… and I’m not sure I can.
The usual Bont/Dusty/Fyfe/Dangerfield mid-forward stuff doesn’t cut it. He’s basically a full-time forward at the moment, and he doesn’t have quite the class of that mob… yet…
Then I went old school, and thought Gablett Snr, as an undersized marking target forward… after all, the Chito can take a PURE grab… but that’s not an accurate one either…
I really don’t think we HAVE a proper comparison for the big dog… and I think that’s why he’s been such a horror matchup for everyone we’ve played so far!
At this rate… even when the “names” are back… I think we have to seriously consider playing him as a forward 90% of the time…
Get someone in to give him some goalkicking lessons! They all go wide right, if you notice such things.
TG for the roof.It's cold and pissing down too.
To me I thought we were super lucky to be 8-3 , I wasn't expecting us to win a lot more after the break, this year we have have had everything go wrong yet are 3 zip, I'm far from saying we will win it or make top 4 but I doubt we fold up like we did last year, my guess we end up 5th - 7thI remember some of us talking like this last season at the bye.

Just curious who will play on Casboult and Jeffrey?Gold Coast have a really solid midfield, but I’m not sure their forward half can put a score on the board the beats us.
Ben King is still working back to his best from the knee injury, and Battle & Wilkie should blanket Lukosius.
I’m not 100% confident but I’d expect that we’ll be in a position to win for the majority of the night.
If you go with Casboult, King, Lukosious and Jeffrey then they'd better mark everything that comes their way otherwise the ball will be streaming out of your back half.Just curious who will play on Casboult and Jeffrey?
They will be allowed free rein to scupper your chances by themselvesJust curious who will play on Casboult and Jeffrey?

They’re back half isn’t that great!Just curious who will play on Casboult and Jeffrey?
Battle on Casboult..They’re back half isn’t that great!
We play 3 talls backJust curious who will play on Casboult and Jeffrey?
Luko is roaming CHF, wing, sometimes square.We play 3 talls back
Doog, battle and Wilkie.
V king casboult jefferey,
Lads here talking luko but he’s been playing on the wing right?
So an everywhere but nowhere man?Luko is roaming CHF, wing, sometimes square.
Mostly forward and delivering inside50, got good tank.
What we should do is kidnap Ben and replace him with Max and Max can play badly.We play 3 talls back
Doog, battle and Wilkie.

Lads here talking luko but he’s been playing on the wing right?
Aaron Hamill, anyone?There is definitely elements there. Pretty hard to compare a kid to someone who is probably the GOAT of the league but that deceptive body strength and tall and small game is very Ablett. His possession numbers and run suggest someone like Ryan O'Keefe who was a bit of a small tall forward with running power.
Hope is one hell of a drug.God bless you gringo. 3 weeks ago it was everyone's hopeless and we are going backwards, now we're walk up winners every week.
This is a sick, sick disease and I am just saddened and angry at what it's done to you. I think you need an exorcism.
An Investment of Boomers........!I think you'll find that the collective noun for a group of boomers is a "Smugness".
Luko is roaming CHF, wing, sometimes square.
Clearing the lane for the inevitable successionross certainly has made some shifts that are putting him in good said for some strong growth as a coach and also for the club. the bigggest change i can see is he's far more open and comfortable in front of the media and fans, but also he's very complimentary of his coaching team. he speaks more about the good someone like enright has done than himself. previously it was all about ross.
this puts him in good stead to attract talent into the club IMO.
the talk about the drinking. classic ross. he's very very calculated.
Also - easy to be like that when we're winning. What does Ross 7 losses deep look like?ross certainly has made some shifts that are putting him in good said for some strong growth as a coach and also for the club. the bigggest change i can see is he's far more open and comfortable in front of the media and fans, but also he's very complimentary of his coaching team. he speaks more about the good someone like enright has done than himself. previously it was all about ross.
