RiC not sure anyone cheers for our footballers to fail. I think years of "ordinary' has taken its toll.
And footballers like Edwards cop a bit. Not his fault as you pointed out. I've never had a go at Edwards, my wrath is normally reserved for high priced recruits, 1st and 2nd rounders.
Which is the sweet spot of mediocrity that we have managed to reside in for way to long.
Great to see our VFL team playing well enough to make finals. A good sign that we are on the improve. On Edwards I hope we retain him as I see no harm in keeping him on the list. He's only 20 plus change.
Not sure we'll see the best of what he can offer for at least another 3 years.

In general terms I think we've become accustomed to losing and the angst towards our players has subsided. Not sure that's a good thing, as we don't want to become another St Kilda. We have always expected our boys to be competitive and at times fans frustrations boil over.

This of course isn't helped by some media types questioning our viability. I think that fires posters up and causes the occasional s**t fit directed at a player
Yes. But in saying all that, I’m sure if previous lists were checked you’d probably have labeled him a shitmen.

TT stats not flattering. Curtis Taylor's excellent - do they flatter Curtis or playing a good game?

Good first half from Curtis, quieter in the third quarter. Turner likewise. TT stats aren’t quite right (missed a disposal or two), but has been better in dryer conditions in the third. Tucker has cracked in, though disposal decision making can be a bit iffy.
 
54-27 at 3QT.

Tucker, Taylor, Turner and Perez are best on. Keogh is very likeable and is dominating the hitouts. Thomas had 7 disposals that quarter (I think it’s more than 10 in total, 12-14 is my guess as they missed a few in the first half).

Sellers with 2.1 and 5 tackles. Is competing hard.

Lowson having a dirty day.

This VFL team has plenty of guys with AFL experience, could be way more bar the injuries, plus a few getting close to getting a look. They could be real dangerous come finals time.
Thomas not looking in AFL condition just yet, probably explains why he hasnt been rushed back in.
