Toast 83 tackles!

And our best tackler and biggest mid have barely played as well.

Yeah it's a great and scary thought.

Love the tackles. Love the smothers.

22.

Insane.

Would be close to a record you'd think.

Can we do Rd 1 over?

Can I say this again?

 

[ozzyoslo]

Yeah significant improvement in this area this year (other than round 1).

I saw Atley, Gibson and Mckenzie lay some hard tackles yesterday and last week.

You know the boys are switched on when Well's does it within the 1st minutes of the game.

Lets not get too carried away.....this is the same side that got beat by the babies of the league 3 weeks ago......when a bloke gets $9M for a so called 10 yrs bogus contract, the other blokes quietly start to question their worth for the same club.

Sensational effort. After Sundays performance, I tipped North to beat Sydney. We look ten times better than Sydney at the moment. We look harder and fitter than Sydney and I hope Thompson destroys Franklin to pieces. Imagine we had Swallow in our side...

Brilliant!

While yes you are right, but there is a huge difference between that team and the team that played on sunday...we were embarrassed in round 1 and the players know it, we underestimated the * and were outplayed, the players know that and are making sure it never happens again.

Given our last 2 wins the players can also see what they have done over the pre season(s) and what the new coaches have taught them along with Brad has merit and will keep improving.

Just one week at a time abster, one week at a time.

Another stand out tackling display last night.

The thing that has characterised our wins against the Dogs, Port, Sydney, Freo and Weagles is great tackling pressure - we must bring it to every game. If we do we're a much better team.

It's a reflection of the attitude we have, in addition to the actual physical pressure it brings to bear.
