Have had the replay on in the background and it's always handy to watch bits again without being so emotionally invested.

We really started turning the screw around halfway into the second quarter but we were so wasteful going inside 50.

Higgins more involved than I remember, seems to be involved a lot with harassing and keeping the ball live. Baker is like the energizer bunny, seems to be every where and just keeps going. Grimes is so unassuming the way he carries himself but he's a genuine gun.

Get Bolta out for a start. I was shouted down for that but if we aren't going to put him in either CHB or CHF it's useless. Get Macintosh out full stop.



I'll look forward to the count.
Can’t be serious about Macca.
Bloke runs more kays than most and has an amazing tank.
Yes, he’ll occasionally muck up a kick but Shedda turned over 5 handballs tonight and nothing’s said.
I’ll take 6 brilliant touches for every poor one.
Top 5 in B&F.

Yep, he has been probably our most consistent player so far. Just coming into his prime too.

Oooh I am serious. KMac is a workhorse but for the most part he is like my grand dad - a bumbling, . fumbling hard working honest person.

If you don't have Ellis in your votes, you are wrong
Went for the 3 amigos of the backline.Vlas,Grimes & Houli.
Had to give a vote to Stack.
Gave the last to Baker.That pass to jack in the pocket was subline.
Ellis was very stiff.1st qtr he kept us in it.

Let's see how your boy leads the pack. As I said I look forward to it in the count. You're a dedicated fanboy. That's fine. I see a lot more wrong with him then you do. A damn lot more wrong with him.
Haha he’s not my boy. I don’t have boys.
I just watch games and see who’s playing well and who’s not
For example I could look at say Brandon Ellis or Nick Vlastuin at the moment and say “let’s drop them” and i’d sound like a dickhead , much like you do right now.
There have been times I’ve called for Macintosh to be dropped too I’m sure, but now isn’t one of them.
No point saying you see a lot more wrong with him without pointing it out. So tell us.. what’s he doing wrong?

Bests for mine
Floss (2 weeks in a row flawless)
Grimes
Prestia
Houli
Baker

Very unlucky to miss the votes - Ellis who is in career best form and Broad who was again a wall down back. Maybe Ellis squeezes out Baker but i think the other 4 deserve votes.

Shame about Jack, hope its not a nasty or lingering one..

He does look a bit like a dope but he is playing very well this year. Bad call. Coaches will disagree with you and everyone else here

Edwards did my head in tonight.
Love him but he needs to stop rushing his disposal.
There's no need for it.
I enjoy watching Edwards but sometimes he tries to be too crafty/cute/ambitious with his disposal and the ball is turned over.

I think we are obsessed with kicking to the pockets and with some of the worst set shots in the competition it's just not where we need to go. We seem much better kicking to about 10 metres from the top of the square, that's where we have historically done our best forward 50 work

Our forward coaches need to rethink our structure, you just can't have over 70 inside 50 entries for only 12 goals, something has to be changed.
To be fair, we butchered so many chances.
