Just checked, it is true. I think its only 76 too (last year vs Swans).

My immediate reaction to that stat is that I don't believe it. Insane.

I think we have to play him at half forward unless we move Chappy to the wing. He's not displacing any of our current half backs. If he wasn't always injured maybe. Finally started to play consistent football last year. Too many soft tissues I think. Looked him up today. Not sure where he's...

I'm guessing you don't watch much Freo in the wet? At least not in the last 4.5 years? Propaganda. I had a kick on the SCG once and I can confirm I can kick goals from a kickout half way up the sticks. Ground is barely 40m total.

That's a nice kick in the teeth for DragoDelph Welcome aboard!

I reckon this is often the case with flankers and wingers and it's hard to know without asking the coaches.

Joey is hands down my favourite media pundit. Aside from having heard of us and all of our players, and giving us a fair go, he's also not a moron and actually thinks before he speaks on camera. His commentary on other sides is usually pretty good too.

If Switta doesn't get up I agree. Not sure a wet game against a seasoned side suits Cooper at all. Even though Sturt isn't exactly a brute, he's significantly more physically developed than Cooper is.

Well, hopefully not 6 @ 900k... Honestly don't think Carlton could do it. Especially with players OOC next year. Must be a length over dollars deal, at least partially. Also, good chance that Swans finish higher than any of our picks. Warner has close to the most punchable head in the AFL...

Yes I agree 100%. The other one is once the defenders/mids are all confident to take the first kick/handball receive quickly. Often if you miss the first option the opportunity passes. I think it's always been part of the plan but we're still developing and as a result, we tend to take the...

English is the one. That dude is triggering band 1 for sure. McCluggage as well but I reckon he stays based on all the noise. I suppose there might be a world where Zurhaar or Hayward trigger band 1, but I think band 2 is more likely.

It makes sense that we're not that good on fast footy through the corridor as we don't usually do it. It takes practice and we haven't prioritised it. I suspect it will evolve over the years and then we'll have gears/modes because we've already shown we can control the ball. The infamous "plan...

I think he's been delisted twice in that role...

It would be Johnno at most threat from Warner. Look for the angst there.

Sydney are mature. Only 2 under 50 games and neither of them are 1st or 2nd year players. Good gameplan (for H&A at least) and a side that can execute more times than not. Have a lot of blokes who can kick is probably their POD.
