Goddard looks proppy
Got crunched in a pack
Possibly concussion

Paddy with another.
Great stuff from Saad and Hickey

Sinclair is a jet!

Shenton just kicked it out on the full from a relatively easy shot.
Sandy 68
Dogs 53

Eli and Sinclair just kicked goals.
Assists to Saad and McCartin

Holmes has served the last couple of hitouts on a platter for our mids.
I'd feel pretty confident that he could be as effective or more effective than Longer

Richo seems to be doing a great job, some selection decisions, particularly the subs confuse me a bit. I agree that the sub rule needs to be abolished, but in saying that, it's part of the game so we need to play with it. I don't understand why players like Seb Ross are selected as the sub, it's a p...

Like so many games, it will be won in the midfield, and Armo, Steven and Dunstan need to get a lot of the ball, and do a lot more off the ball defensively as well. Our defence is pretty ordinary and that may be our undoing I think- might be worth giving Lee and Goddard a run, as Delaney is just off...

Hitouts is a fairly useless stat on its own though. Really disagree with this statement. 7 out of the top 10 teams for hitouts are also in the top 10 for clearances. I'd say there is a pretty direct correlation between winning hitouts and winning clearances, aside from us. We go from 10th in hitout...

Interestingly though, we lead them in Hitouts Dogs 13th Saints 9th Amazing that we rank 9th across the league for hitouts yet 14th for centre square clearances & 17th for clearances & stoppages. Does this say more about where the ruckman is hitting it or how our mids are reading it? We're a...

It should be a good match, but looking at some team stats, the dogs should smash us. Clearances Dogs 9th Saints 17th Stoppages Dogs 6th Saints 17th Contested Possessions Dogs 6th Saints 14th Interestingly though, we lead them in Hitouts Dogs 13th Saints 9th Amazing that we rank 9th across the league...

Just a quick one, feel free to delete/move afterwards. For those of you that listen to Triple M What is the prize for the Vero Buisness Quiz that Ash asks via Twitter at half time or so I think. I think it's a double pass to the Grand a Final but not 100% sure, I got put into the draw today so I'm j...

A forward line of Bruce and McCartin is worth more than 5 Brayshaws

This kids is an absolute gun.. Why didn't we pick him? Looks to be the best player of the draft excluding Petracca I thought we would have our forward stock with Bruce, lee and membrey? Firstly Bruce hadn't played much as a forward, butin the backline from memory. Secondly Lee and Membrey arent any...

Big game next week against the Doggies. I know we played an awesome second half against them last time and created some history, but they SMASHED us in the first half. They dominated the poor old Lions tonight with a massive spread of goal kickers How will we stop Stringer and Boyd who kicked 9 betw...

P66 & bigcarl's love child. Maybe two negatives do make a positive.

Bruce at times looked spent when he was running around in the ruck, and Roo hurt his leg in the last. But I'm with you, the last quarter was frustrating and stressful to say the least. Bruce has been dropping marks over the past 3 or so weeks which doesn't help. I really hope we can sort out the ruc...

Was sitting pretty much right behind him on the weekend as he was the boundary guy for Fox. He seemed like a good bloke, was smiling and talking to the other Fox people around him and also chatted and smiled to the people behind him. Like saintsRrising & Plugger66 said, they get paid to make big...

Having to play Bruce in the ruck when Longer had a rest absolutely kills our structure. At one point Bruce was in the ruck and Roo got the ball from a kick in from the back pocket and had nothing to kick too. If we persist with this Roo has to be instructed to stay deep when Bruce plays ruck so we h...

A lot of love for a bloke who plays a couple of good games and then gets injured. Hickey is fragile as hell. What are their contracts like? One will likely get moved on for an early pick of the coaches believe Holmes or Lewie are ready. Hickey must either be struggling with injury again or really on...

Acres because he told me I've got a good beard

Acres told me I have a great beard when they ran around the boundary at the end of the game.

Mincho was good. I'd like to see him get a couple more games and get his confidence high

Good for Minch. It's ridiculous, what more can Acres do to avoid the vest! Someone has to wear it, thankfully for the 12th last time. Shenton got bloody dropped and now he's named to start on the wing. Acres can actually use the ball well, someone the whole team struggles with. He has time and comp...
