I was at the game tonight and he was phenomenonal. He and McGovern will anchor that backline for the next decade

Those two are gonna break all the rules of defensive set ups.

I can't remember how many times in the first half we were pressing all the way to the forward 50, Adelaide would kick out long and you could see both TB and JM there, knew both were going to jump and were like 'yeah well one of them is going to get it'.
 
As his player sponsor I knew this guy had the goods from when I first saw him playing early last year

He only needed the confidence that he belongs at this level to shine like he did tonight

Sexualbarassment baby
 
Surely McKenzie is traded this year? Surplus to needs and hold genuine currency?
No I think Barass maybe the player that allows Gov to play forward once eMac gets confidence back in his knee
 
what a difference a year makes. This time last year jenkins and walker destroyed him and now he walked over both. Still has a bit to go in terms of strength. tex was able to get rid of him with a bit of ease on 2 ocassions.
 
Now that I think about it - almost exactly 12 months ago I went to the West Coast V Adelaide game in Adelaide and we got our shit handed to us. Barrass dropped his head and I posted about how ugly it was.

Fast forward 12 months and he's best on in a win. Funny how young players improve.

EDIT - hate being beaten to a post.

There was a sizeable difference in the way the ball was coming though - it does show however that if sides can't bring the ball in cleanly then gov and sexual are going to kill them

It does but Barrass has been playing with a lot more confidence this year compared to last year. Also he has but a lot of size and he has been a lot better in 1v1 situations.

He learned a lot that game. An absolute shit ton. Not least the understanding that you can't always zone off and fly for the ball but sometimes you need to defend

His judgement of when to go and when to defend has been much better this year. Tonight it was close to perfect

We all remember the Adelaide game last year and I'm not painting over it but wasn't Barrass pretty much on his own KPD wise? I think that game we were without Schofield and Jez and I'm too lazy to check facts that back up things that I say.

gov played. Im not blaming barrass. He had to play on 2 of the most potent KPF's by him self in his second game. His form against adelaide so far havent been great. At subi he was average and today he was close to bog.
 
Gov played against Adelaide last year but hurt his shoulder early and struggled to play out the game leaving Barass to fight almost a lone hand as a KPD

Yeah Baby......... now your talking......... that would be awesome.

Good God we are really becoming a team that will dominate the aerial contests.

We have some seriously good over head contested marks on our list now.
JK, Jack, The Big Easy, NN, Lycett, Barrass and of course the King of the air McGovern.
 
Did a right foot pass tonight that didn't look out of place for left footer. No more shaky KPD kicks coming out of defence.

Very true - but there were a couple of times Barrass was caught with the ball going over his head and he pushed back hard and got the spoil in whilst out of position.

Whoever our recruiter is for talls needs a payrise. To think we might even lob Lobb.
