Lucas

[Memories]

I don't want to come off as a troll, and I think lucas is a great player... but why does he keep doing the "ive just been pushed in the back" routine everytime he goes for a mark and he misses it? Last quarter against Carlton the player wasn't even touching him and he went down like a swandive.

He really needs to stop doing stuff like that because it taints his image, just like Lloyd.

We were actually lucky Lucas didn't kick 5 or 6 goals. He's still the in-form player in the competition as far as I'm concerned, and still leads the Coleman table.

I thought Thornton did a wonderful job on him after Lance was moved off him. Didn't have much of an influence after half time, but a lot of that had to do with scarce inside 50 entries for 'em.

It's not something lucas normally does, and i didn't notice it on the week end... but then i have notice a lot of others do it, and I think it's because of the stupid new hands in the back rule...

Well, if thats the way the game is going...players may as well exploit it, as for when they are legitimately there, the umpires seem to miss them also. Professional basketballers do it to some degree, they call it 'drawing the foul' Ill agree it looks ugly, but the hierachy at the AFL can be blamed for that.

if lucas kicked 5.3 instead of 3.5 you wouldn't be talking about this

Charles Barkly was the greatest at this... Shoudl have got an oscar...

Its a shame the game is heading this way mind you.
