Good call. The other outstanding nomination from the plastic surf club has to be Ben King. Or is it Max King? I know it's not Jake King, but I'm a big fan of Freddie King. Anyway, whatever his name was that had his arse handed to him by Noah Balta was certainly worthy of consideration.
 
ryan struggled big time 2night but I am still backing him in, give him a block of four and if he is still not performing. send him back, quite a few hyenas were out and about for Taranto and hopper, yet both brilliant in our 2 wins. now we have our two bookends back in balta and Lynch. give ryan another 3 or 4 and maybe give nank a week off.....we ain't making finals this year so why don't we mix it up a bit as we mount our next dynasty.
Ryan is coming off the bench for Nank, Lynch & Faull. Yze has had a look at Bauer & Blight doing it. I only watched the replay. Ryan stepped in OK for the KPF rotations, let Faull take a pack mark, and he's a better ruck option than Blight. He broke even with Witts at some throw ins
Yze don't leave Nank on the bench for so long.
Ryan is staying in the 22. If they want Trainor to play, sub Banks. Mansell for Green.
Melbourne have Gawn in form and a KPF rucking.
Sims been doing no rucking & Blight won't come IN. Miller or Blight, they chose Miller.

I like the idea of bringing Blight in as the second ruck. He was more than serviceable in there when called upon and he gives us another strong marking option around the ground.
 
Trainer in for Brown
Mansell in for Steely

Brown has a good looking kick but defensively got some concerns…I think Trainor might take his spot long term.
Steely could’ve handballed to a player running in the f50 corridor at goal in the second for an easier shot but had a ping missed and a few clangers.

Play Ryan again. Witts is a good Ruck, was at the game and thought Nank was injured.
It looked bad going to ground in the ruck contest but it was the not competing hard enough in the “get out” kick that was disappointing.
It’s something Faull needs to improve at too.
MacAndrews outplayed both of them.
Happy for Hopper to get some games together and stop the panicky handball to someone a mtr away that’s immediately tackled and Dow is looking a little stronger around the contest no big change in his numbers but he looks better when Taranto and Hopper are playing better.
Him standing Rowell, I hope he realises he needs to build to that sortve effort if he wants to keep his spot.

I reckon our back 6 is better than the Dees fwd 6 but if we let them run outve the stoppage like Rowell did last night they’re going to score pretty easily, like GC in the last.
Reckon we got a chance if we stay healthy.
 
Atmosphere was so ****ing awesome tonight Sat directly above the sons cheer squad. Gave it to the ****ing campaigners all night. Best win in ages even better than round 1 .great defensive play so good to have noah back
Did he turn around and have a go back at you?

strange to hear some tiger supporters booing Balta at the start of the game….at the end…they had changed their tune and were applauding everything he did

There was even a Noah Noah chant at the end

Played very well Balta…great to have him back …freed up Vlas, Broad etc….and you see what happened last night
 
Is Mac Andrew the highest paid player on the gc list now
If he is wouldn’t you be filthy being one of their other players that he is earning more than yourself for being a hack and try hard tough guy
He is that skinny you could snap him like a twig

The Q should be …Is Mac Andrew the highest paid flog?

Bloke is very lippy…has no CV behind him yet

I assume it’s him or King and next year it’ll be Rowell

Still cheaper and better than LDU though
 
This season is the best. Way more enjoyable than the last few years.

Faull looks exciting, MRJ twinkle toes definitely has midfield potential, Seth impressive, last year's draft looking ridiculous already with so much more to come, steely/tresize/brown brewing away.

one irritation...watching Ross especially but also Ryan and Banks is excruciating. It's the opposite of the "time stands still" type player. Time actually speeds up and I find myself yelling "get the f&@/$ rid of it".

Best thing about the win... Seeing how angry Trainor looked after the game at only getting 10mins game time.. this is the attitude that builds great clubs

Trainor was angry at the fact that he had to sit on the pine and watch Ryan spud it up



Fair enough I say …Trainor has showed more in his 2-3 games than SR in years
