Put it this way. SUpercoachses' should have Brad Johnson as captain in thier side for this weekend. as he will go on a rampage! Mcviegh needs to play on him, but in doing that we are almost conceding defeat before a ball is bounced as Mcviegh is going to need to play a blinder in the midfield for us to be even competitive tonight. Wouldnt be surprised if there was a late ommission and Courtney Johns comes in. We desparetley need a Tall Marking Forward. If he just brings it to the ground, Froggy, Lovett and NLM can get underneath him and get some crumbing goals. If CJ was ever going to do anything for the red and black the time is now.

Brad Johnson is a quality player and a great guy from all that I can tell, but don't let the fact he's played a lot of games and kicked a few goals the last few years get the better of you. He is not a superstar. One of the reasons he's done so well forward for the Dogs is because they didn't have any other forward for quite a while.

Over the last three weeks he has been pretty average apart from the last 5 miniutes against the Crows. The Dogs aren't focusing on him as much as before and he is older. Any expectation that he is going to dominate against us is one made without logic or reasoning.

We have to keep track of Murphy, Cooney, Cross, Gia, and Gilbee those are the big ones. If we can get on top of them we can deal with Johnson.

BTW: Stanton, Watson, and Pev all had lots of touches last time we played them. Lloyd only kicked 1.
 
Ive had enough of this. Slattery has played one bad game and all of a sudden he is the new Kepler Bradley??? :mad:

Give the guy a break! He hasn't even played 50 games yet..
Last year when he played on Kerr and did a very very good job. Do we all remember that.

Good Luck Slats, come out and show all these people who don't believe in you what you can do

I agree with you, and can anyone remember Slatts v Hodge near the end of the year, so who else thinks that slatts is a bad tagger?
 
Interesting game. Made 1 early mistake but otherwise beat Johnson soundly in 1-on-1s, which would normally be enough. Did however make a few blunders like poor disposal & decision making.
Would need a match-up vs Saints

Expecting quite a few nuffies to jump on his back though, despite keeping the comp's best small forward to 1 goal

I was at the game so not sure how many possies Johnson had but it seemed like he would have had around 20 odd? One goal does not tell the full story.

That one goal that you are refering to was a discrace. The lack of intensity which Slattery showed was embarrassing to say the least. His decision making and disposal is almost as poor as the intensity he showed in that contest. He is clearly out of form and needs to go back to Bendigo for 2-3 weeks.
 
If you watched last nights game you will see why people don't rate him.

Yerp.

His performance is being over rated and Johnson has been right out of form this year, apart from the first game he played against the Crows in his 300th.

Slatts let Johnson kick an easy goal by not attacking the ball.

He has no confidence in his ability, no wonder, and is always second guessing himself and not committing totally to certain situations for fear of making a mistake.

Regardless, he's a quality player and has cut up every team in the comp - including us
Beat him in a number of contests, there was only that early goal which was a clear win to Johnson

Most of his possies would have been when he was in the midfield early on, don't think Slatts was on him all the time

Peverill was on him early. Thought Slattery generally did an honest job but to be fair Johnno is terribly out of form at the moment.
