Is that the rule? So after Tigers and Dees performances it was ok?
Maybe best to wait for two bad games in a row before writing them off then?

Yeah we seem to do well against the better sides. I'd almost rather Saints knock them off this week as we'd almost be playing for a spot in the four next week.

I spent a lot of time watching him during the match. He was always very wide and very deep. Unsure if this was deliberate but felt like he was told to play there.
In saying that it would not surprise me if he was dropped

We bring that first quarter and I'm confident against everyone
Am really happy with that. Play at our best and we are unstoppable
Loved Reid's game. Really stepped up. Was nervous when Ladhams went down but Reid did very well.
Ladhams also played well before his injury
Papley good hopefully hos yipps are gone
Heeney better
All the mids were better. Warner outstanding. Mills bounced back well
Clarke did really well in his role
Think Amartey is better as a deeper forward than McDonald. Buddy might get in his way a bit too much
No complaints really. Other than a fit ruck and putting Cunningham to the sub again, no changes for next week

- Kidding, right?
Don’t we have, like, an exceptional record against WC in Perth, but a very poor record against Freo in Perth?
Even when WC are firing and Freo ain’t?

According to the rulebook, it was there. The problem is, they never call those: players are always given 14 steps, which is more than what Stephens took.

Could have had more touches, but it's a bit hard playing on a wing when we're keeping the ball almost strictly in the corridor when we have possession.
Still think we should have gone to him more than we did. Had acres of space on a number of occasions, and was flatly ignored. Probably a combination of game plan, and him needing to earn the trust of his teammates that he is a good option to be moving the ball forward.
His kicking has been pretty good since he returned though IMO. Think he has more upside this year than anyone else that could feasibly slot into that role.

Thought we stuck our tackles much better tonight than last week. Stephens, Rowbottom, Gulden just to name a few who were tough in the contest when needed.

Woah that post is insane the amount of data and information that was extracted from the game.
Thankyou Oliver Gigacz

Interesting that Clarke was brought into the team for Campbell, not that Campbell was injured or unwell. Horse said he did his job. Really happy for him and hope he gets another year.

How often does a team win by over 50 points after dominating contested possession, uncontested possession, tackles, pressure and still lose the free kick count????
Ugle has plenty of talent but his body is at least a year behind Logan's. Doesn't go nearly as hard as any of our three, including McLean.Glad we have McDonald/Amartey rather than Ugle-Hagan.

I don't understand the bashing JUH gets. Very good young forward. Weird obsession some have.
Might see Big Cal back in seniors. He's been going well in VFL. Freo very strong in the ruck.
We played straight down the middle most of the time. Very rarely wide.
All three of our "flankers" Gulden, McInerney and Stephens saw only a little of the ball.

Dogs gave us a lot of space in the middle. When we're allowed to play our rapid fire handball game we're hard to stop.
