thanks.....How goes it 'maniac.
Nice start to the season for you although the Kangas were woeful.
Looks like you finally learned how to score again instead of playing Lyons rope-a-dope game.
(and despite being dudded with the Hogan deal. )
The general views was Lyons 2nd biggest concern was the tactics, his biggest concern was playing youth.....
Saying that, People said Ross Lyon was forced to change his style, that's half the truth.
I have Said the only reason Lyon plays a low scoring style is because of the cattle he has. Last 2 years the excuses were lack of fire power up front and injuries.
I have posted on here, In Norths defence, they were playing in Perth Stadium, like the Subiaco oval of old, had more space on the wings compared to docklands. North had injuries too, especially in the back line.
I never gave up on McCarthy. It took us 2 years to finally play to his strengths. At GWS he thrived as a 3rd tall behind Cameron and Lobb. Last week he thrived behind Tabs and Lobb. I posted on the freo board, I more happy getting Lobb than Hogan as Lobb is a ruckman and a tall forward. Had to play both of them. North Beat us at home last year with their 2 main talls in Waite and Ben Brown doing the damage.
Ironic that this 666 rule was introduced to quell the Ross Lyon super blockage in the stoppages though
