Dal is a gun
I'm not missing him as it's our ferocity which is exciting me at the moment and that was not Dals wheel house

Coaching panel deserve accolades. The match ups and team selection were first rate.

It was great to hear the excitement of all the Bombers fans when they saw Jetta just had to race someone to the goal square, and that collective sigh of disappointment when Jimmy beat him.
Would anyone be kind enough to tell me at what point in the game this was? I remember it during the game and would love to see it again!

Think it was in the first quarter

But last night, admittedly from the small sample I saw, pace is really going to be an issue. The interchange cap and lesser stoppages won't do him any favours. His overall movement and running patterns looked awful. No spread whatsoever. I hope I'm wrong and he makes it but I'm starting to get concerned that he will be caught in between a VFL and AFL player. Prove me wrong Seb.

There was a moment where he was spent in the chase....he'd only been on for a few minutes which was a worry. I didn't see the efforts leading up to it so maybe he was genuinely out of gas.
Yeah saw that and was a bit concerned, but a minute or so later, just near the end of the game, got free in the middle and presented a good target for marking and taking the gas out of the Injectors.

Body language never looks good with Seb, maybe he will take a bit longer to develop a tank. I remember opinions saying Jobe Watson would never make it as a footballer because of no tank. Could be a while before Seb Ross can run out a game

true. Like I said I didn't see his effort leading up to it so may have used his tickets.

The Webster footrace with Jett was in the second quarter with about 16:30 on the clock

Jetta started behind Webster in the centre square (at about CHB) but got the drop o Webster and took off, but the time Webster turned he was level with Jetta, reeled him in and was about three metres ahead of him when he got to the ball.

He is very quick once he gets going.

Just on a Dal - a crows mate of mine said that Dal just looks weird in the kangas jumper, have to agree.

Saints players after the game were as pumped as I've seen them in some time. They were buzzing going into the rooms to start the club song and then there was some confusion as to who was going to do Milney's old job in the song. It stalled for a bit but then they picked it up- very funny. We need a cheeky rascal to stand up here.


I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

2004 is one of my fav seasons... Frasier really made our footy fun and unpredictable... he made crazy leads kicked bags and was never shy to get into some biff. we came from no ware that year to just about hit the pinnacle. if we had beaten Port we would have been premiers that year. :(

I also miss Aaron Hamil Steven M, and Harvey

** I really wish Milne went around one more time... we're missing him a lot this year in the park.

The young guys are intense when they don't have the ball and that's what I loved most.
Also out-wrestled Watson (though he probably interfered illegally with the marking contest!) and played in Rooey for his last goal. Webster is a chance at being an 'A' grader.


Hird... The unflushable one is now... just a turd...
