He's a good pickup apparently

Bombers have Port away, Dogs, Crows away, Collingwood. Not the easiest month. Would do well to win 2 of those but could lose them all.
Useless St Kilda! Sickening.
Bugger that. Will never want the bombers to win under any circumstance.
Would happily watch Lyon park the bus and win 1 - 0

In 3 games maybe. He went at 65% today so they can't have been in one game.
Edit: It was. How does that work? Counting fumbles?
Essendon are a terrible terrible team. This is a good result for us.

No matter the result, a happy empty couldn’t care less result…

Yeah, they must count fumbles that the opposition picks up or something. He can't go at 65% efficiency if the turnovers are all from disposals.

I'm feeling better about our prospects the more I watch other teams. Sydney are the big worry, Giants and Dees close. That's it really. Top 4 seeming very doable and then it's an open flag race.
They’ll beat the current Crows. And Collingwood are no certainty against them.

I’m wondering why you are more worried about Sydney than GWS, ODN?
So would I if I was them. He was awful.
But they lost in the second quarter when they could have put them away

It’s simple for us.
Finish top 4 BUT must play in Melbourne if so very confident of playing in the GF.

Yep. Their set shot accuracy was atrocious.

I shouldn't be because GWS are stronger on every line. Swans have got a hard edge back to them though. It's a long season so we shall see.

I really think Sydney are gettable around and behind the ball. Papley, McDonald and Heeney is plenty of xfactor ahead of it, but around the ball they rely on being just good enough inside and sensational outside; deprive them of supply and they need to carry the ball from end to end to score and they're good but not so good as to do it sustainably for 4 terms.
GWS absolutely are able to move the ball from back half to front half by hand or foot without ******* it up, and absolutely have the grunt to beat us around the footy for an entire match.
It's going to be an interesting year.
Boekhorst v Laverde
Was projected to be the clear choice around our #19 draft pick, Laverde’s career has been pretty ordinary to date, looking back it was a very average draft from our pick onwards only a handful of players who become decent players…

Modern footy is more about system than talent, and that's where I rate Sydney.
They do have some players up and going who are known to be inconsistent, Hayward and McInerney come to mind immediately. Grundy makes a massive difference.
I literally just spit my drink out.
