Yeah, I could hear it on the tele too, it was loud. I wonder how much of the crowd the players block out though, especially when they're focussed like I would like to think Goodsey was?

I'm betting they hear none of it. They would hear the background noise but not distinguish parts of it. They will probably notice when the volume increases or decreases, but not with the same granularity that the spectators would notice.

Davey is ridiculously quick though. Its not the first time I've seen him do that.

I thought this thread was about the dogs.....that's a slick and quick backline.

We used to be pretty slick and one guy is quick (Tadgh) - now we just look sick....ick.

I think this applies to most of the team..You only have to watch after they take a mark, their first point of looking is sideways or backwards, they ahve done it so much it has become instinct.
Almost like roosy has gonbe back to eades old ways and not that exciting attacking football that they so bloody capable of playing...
