Very good win against a side who were a bit of a rabble.
A massive test on Sunday after a ridiculously small break. Although it would be great to make no changes, the reality is that we will have to give some players a rest.
Expect Sier to debut. Watched him a few weeks ago and couldn’t believe how massive he is. Very big bodied midfielder

Add Tom Lynch to that side today is like adding six goals to our score, so the 8 goal win would have become a 14 goal win. That margin would be about enough to land ourselves next year's premiership cup. That is the pitch we should be making to Lynch's management after the season if we want to secure his services for next year.

Actually we should pitch his opportunity to join a Premiership team, after we win the 2018 flag.

Same Here. Still Cautions as we been very poor for 4-5 Seasons. Are we just have a Purple Pitch OR have we turned the Corner.
Not Sure Yet

Fascinating game against Richmond now - a really good test to see where we are at. |
5 months til September, past the morning sickness now! |
The cravings have begun in earnest and it's definitely starting to show!
The best thing about this joke is barring any miscarriage, it can deliver for months.

In defence. No doubt. Reid and Cox are doing their job up forward. One extra tall down back would make sure an opposing tall can't get hold of us. That's a risk at the moment with an undersized backline.
Adams is the interesting one for me. He's going to need to play a bit differently to fit into this side now. Seems strange to say of the Copeland runner up, but his lack of pace and running ability is a hindrance to the way we're playing at the moment. Brown played the Adams role today better than Taylor has this year. |
and Not the Best Kick Either is Adams though he thinks he is

Oh, so you've personally talked to him about his kicking efficiency Dave?
If not, how would you know what he actually thinks about it?

Justin Longmuir deserves plaudits for what he’s done with the defence. They’ve been miserly as a bunch, even though they mostly aren’t stars. They structure up well and are hard to get through. They’ve had the 4th-least points against over the first five rounds.

Another challenge to be faced at the end of year is keeping JDG. That's if we want to keep him He does seem to be trying his best to atone, but a while to go yet.

I thought Varcoe was fantastic today. In saying that, I think he may be rested this Sunday.

They way he tried to Pin Point Kicks when he can't do it.
Another Reason why I tend to keep off here now
