What is with footscray games lately they are really boring to watch.
Probably Tom Boyd's fault. I'm enjoying watching the Bont, Stringer, Murphy, Johannisen, etc.

Definitely a better game than the Adelaide Brisbane match. I think Alan Richardson is doing a very good job with St Kilda - very disciplined and well setup team despite the lack of experience.

Anyone notice Brian Taylor refer to Paddy McCartin playing a blinder in the VFL today on 2 seperate occasions?

Sandringham have the bye this week lol.
I actually looked this up. they don't have a bye, but they play tomorrow so still valid, stupid BT.
(Also i had great difficulty on sandringsham website which says they play on the 25th, but the actually fixture says tomorrow)

Huh, now I don't know who to believe.

Also, the yogging chick in the Toyota ad is well put together.

Boyd is very weak at the contest. I don't think that body strength changes that either, you either have that mindset or you don't. He lacks a hunger, doesn't look like a footballer to me let alone an imposing forward.

He's a 105kg Jack Watts without the skills on 2.5 times the cash. Thank **** that's not us.

Boyd is definitely improving but he needs to work harder and play a lot smarter. Has probably spent more time on media training than on game plans to date. Certainly hasn't done much against any decent opponents - Delaney is ordinary at best.

Was thinking that too, especially that last contest with about 1 minute to go. Just fell over like a tree being chopped down by a lumberjack. Tiiiimmmmbbbeerrrr.

Lucky for the bullies it didn't cost them.

Come on mate, don't derail the thread.

Ford girl or Toyota girl?
Ford girl for sure.

Incredible amounts of scrutiny on Boyd. FFS he's a 19yo 20 game player who is 200cm. Surprise surprise he's not going to dominate the competition in his second year.

He'll be fine.
Of course there is going to be scrutiny, he left his original club after a year for huge money.

I agree he will be fine just pointing out what he is lacking in his game at the moment and that the media will come after him soon enough, all I can say is thank god we have Hogan :D
