I fell asleep during the 3rd quarter but if the AFL was going t bring back a SOO or some form of All Australian vs Someone game, this time in the year is the best time for it with the unlimited interchange* and bigger bench.
As a Victorian I couldn't give a * about Victoria or the All Stars and if it was SA vs WA I wouldn't care either. I loved what I saw from Mills and Papley during the game though. Game was too run and gun for Lloyd to really be seen much from what I saw.
*Interchange cap needs to * off otherwise that with stupid 666 rules scoring will just keep falling

To be fair Richmond's turnaround has been nothing short of a miracle. It's not like they turned over a whole lot of the list. The squad that won the premiership was almost the same as the one we smashed by 100 points a year earlier... Dusty suddenly became the best player in the league the next season

It was worth a watch and started real well
The longer it went I was conscious I didn’t care who won
Maybe vics felt differently but as an all star state I didn’t care bout the result
Playing in pre season was a tick and the players put in etc
Think the only way to have actual state of origin long term is to have the states and a round robin that means something
Other than for nostalgia I don’t think we need it, have to say that big v jumper is a great one though

I'm a Vic and I didn't give a * about Victoria winning. Possible idea would be to have SA vs All Stars then WA vs All Stars and back to Vic vs All Stars on rotation to keep all the teams fresh and not isolate the non-3 main states

As a non Victorian i stopped watching after half time. Was boring. I dunno. Couldn get into it.
Yeah. It is very clear what he is going to do with the ball, before he does it. It's quite predictable for the opposition.
May not be an opinion that others share, but I think we should upgrade paps contract at the end of the year. Perhaps make it a mix of slight pay increase with a performance based bonus. I think, if we've paid under, and he's outperforming his salary, it would be a good gesture to reward him for it. Perhaps with increases each year.
Try and kick the ball to a teammate?

he should put it up his jumper one time and stop, shrug his sholdours and pretend the ball vanished
Watch Rod Carter kick the ball out from Full Back. You try telling me, you can't tell he doesn't telegraph what he is planning to do with the ball before he kicks it.
Mills isn't as bad. But he is very one sided, and not particularly skillful. It is an issue if he is playing as a rebounding defender because it becomes very predictable up the field for the opposition if they know what Mills will do every time he gets the ball before he does it - usually long, and towards the boundary line.

i kmow what you are saying just mucking around
I think he looked to have a bit more time and space/composure last night, that may help go to the next level
Yeah, I think he is (going to be) a great player. I think his go though is going to be the Dylan Grimes/Tom Stewart hybrid defender - rather than Malceski/Mcveigh creative half back.

Dusty had Touhey on him when resting forward. Zac doesn't exactly shut players down. The All Stars whole game plan was attack, attack, attack. No real shudown defenders except Andrews. The rest were either interceptors, Mills etc, or running half backs, Saad, Touhey, Johanison etc. That is why they lost in the end because the mids only ran one way and the backs were caught out attacking and not defending leaving huge gaps and so much space for opponents to run into they may as well have been playing on the Nullarbor.
