Glad Nic Newman is getting votes. One of my favourite playes. Always plays with ticker and I certainly believe he provides the composure and mature decision making our young kids/players need. Terrific recruit.

Decision making?
He loves to turn it over in the backline under no pressure.

Defensive structures are poor and still need a lot of work..
But...
How good is it actually having a midfield that actually clicks and works together...
Walsh, Dow, Cripps, Kennedy, SPS, Curnow, fogarty & Newnes all worked great together tonight
and the best thing they lowered their eyes going forward and connected with our forwards...
hallelujah!!!
He takes risks, no doubt, but I don't mind that in a defender. Take the game on, kick it on, instead of the usual boring chip chip, sideways kicks that go nowhere.
In light of Doc's absence, he provided a steady hand down back last weekend, least from where I watched the game in the Olympic (still haven't watched the replay)
That's a weird spread of votes, trying to wrap my head around it.
Something like:
Coach A:
5 - Darcy
4 - Brayshaw
3 - Weitering
2 - Walsh
1 - Dow
Coach B:
5 - Cripps
4 - Weitering
3 - Walsh
2 - Darcy
1 - Silvagni
Coach A being Longmuir, Coach B being Teague who may have rewarded Cripps playing through injury as captain?
Wondering what people think of development after tonight
Dow, Kennedy, Stocker, SPS, JSos
SPS drilled a couple of blinder kicks….and squibbed it on 3 seperate occasions, every time it was his time to go. Also couldn’t get near a contested possession when in the middle. Not even close,won’t even try to win a contested ball - watch the game again, it’s why he was tried at half back, and he only ever win 12-15 touches, all soft receives. Martin showed more on one leg.
Stocker - love his toughness - desperately what this team needs - another 10 of him. Can’t wait to see him fit enough to play midfield. Gun.
Kennedy - another good game, kicking has improved -he’s slow, so needs quicker players around him - not sure him and cripps together work.
dow - great improvement in almost all areas, still went missing, most likely due to fitness - needs to get fitter and a lot bigger. Great improvement in skills. Would like to see less of the hot potato handballs, he’s good enough to take the game on and do something good with it! Have confidence!
JSOS- always gives 100%
He’s always had big legs.I saw him up close at a VFL game huddle a couple months back. Boy has filled out well, looks very solid through the hips, gluteus and legs.

Liam Stocker has a mug of nails instead of coffee in the morning.
SPS was at HF, not the middle. Could you point out when he squid 3 contests and I will have another look

Look, it was a terrific goal, but I don't think it's the goal of the year.
It most likely won't win GOTY. But if Krakour can win a MOTY when Walker should have, I will vote for Walsh's goal just to mark it along...Look, it was a terrific goal, but I don't think it's the goal of the year.
