    He’s been just fine for a first game. Defensively, hasn’t missed a trick and got a few possies late. Of course he’s raw but he’s done nothing wrong.

      Well a good half I guess. Very poor opposition but we need to go on with it. Chad and Charlie seem to be confidence players so hopefully they continue.

      Ladhams fairly amazing really.

        Hope we can somehow make Ladhams and Grundy fit in the same team. I think Ladhams has some X factor and would allow Grundy to rest. But it’d mean we’d probably have to drop one of our key forwards

          Good to see Chad come to the party after a quiet patch. Geez Heeney is a player though.

          We’re a bit easy to score against though, particularly when the ball is on the ground inside 50. Love Wicks, but he had some sloppy moments down back.

            2 Rucks, 3 Tall fwds = Deep entries

            Poor opposition but it has to be the game plan

            Glad to see Warner in the Mids, defensive talls very good

              15.7 (97) is Sydney's highest-scoring first half since 1995.
              "Unbelievable!" -- Nick Davis leaves his mark on the 2005 semi final

                Yes agreed it gives us a lot more options though 1 tall fwd will be cut

                  You know it's your day when both Amartey and McLean get goals from run down tackles.

                      Grundy might get another week off at this rate

                        But then again they are playing an extra tall today? Wonder if you can play 3 tall FWDs and 2 rucks, and just increase there time/rotations on the bench?

                            In range of our biggest ever win against Richmond, which was 118 points back in 2006.

                              Logan, Charlie, Amartey Fwd

                              Grundy and Ladhams or Mclean

                              All of a sudden the mids get open and even the ruck can drift fwd

                              It works because Logan and Charlie mobile, which helps up the ground

                              Ladhams is covering alot of ground

                                Not to much we can take out of this game - but surely 2 ruck system stays - lots of individual goal records on offer
