You’re saying we’re a 9th to 14th team without him. I disagree. If he got injured I’d be disappointed but still think we’re a chance with Ladhams, Marshall and Georgiades surrounded by Gray, Rozee, Butters etc.

This little blast from the past came up on my feed.
Love how much he's bought into this club considering where he has come from.

Don't give me these pissy easy goals to kick. Give me the tough ones - so I can celebrate properly - close to the fans.

85/65 split with GC.
Another 15 games for his spawn to be eligible to us under F/S rule. Should be encouraged to donate his gift to a sperm bank.

If he spawns with an angry redhead ( aren't they all)we might end up with Mitch Robinson 2. Now I'm not saying that's a bad thing.
My sister isn't angry. Does Tony Lockett have any female offspring?

Can we just acknowledge that Mark?
That for me is better than Odell's great catch.
1. Wet
2. Slippery smooth surface compared to an NFL Ball so harder to grip
3. Bigger than an NFL Ball so harder to palm
4. Not running back with the flight for more give when it hits
5. Ball moving in a harder motion to catch
6. No glove
That's epic. To top it off, was held.

I love how the blatant hold on his arm didn't even get one mention
Should have had 5 goals just a few minutes into the second quarter. Instead finished with what, 1 goal?
Butcher might have been a hack kick, but at least his mung floaters went through about 50% of the time

Finished with 2 goals 3 points.
I checked the top goal scorers in the league and they are all running at about a 55% accuracy. Thought they would be around the 70% mark.
With our players inaccurate kicking i always wonder if they just need another player to walk up to them and tell them the basics of not poking at the ball when closer than 50.
It's actually bizarre, the field kicking skill is so high these days, but you look at goalkicking compared to the olden days with the likes of Dunstall, Ablett, Lockett, Modra etc where you just knew they had a set approach and kicked it more often than not

Lockett, Dunatall and Co spent 99% of the game sitting on their ass waiting for the ball to get kicked to them.
Pretty easy to kick straight when you haven't run up and down the field or put pressure on your opponents.
It's a mental thing from there for him. Only explanation I have for it. Rather then just kicking through the ball, he leans back to steer it through. I'd hope someone in the break between the Collingwood game to our qualifying final it's worked on.
Look the game has changed but those guys were goal kicking technicians the fitness/sports science guys limit how much the modern day player practices goal kicking.

I know, so you can't compare them.
And hearing the constant sniping from them I think is pathetic.
They probably laid less tackles in their whole careers then Dixon would in a season. Likewise handballs....
If I practiced goal kicking and nothing else I'd be pretty good too....
The only time fat *s like Dunstall and Lockett would break a sweat is when they are off to the pub.

The thing I've noticed with Dixon is he either shanks them horribly off the boot or they go straight through the middle like an arrow, there's no in between with him.
