    No surprise with the umpires. The team must expect it when we play a Victorian team, it's just so predictable. Edwards must be the find of the season for us...
    I think you can add Serong to that. But, yes he is shaping up to be a permanent long term player.

      How about our old mate Hamling. Doing so much off the ball work to make space for Charlie and Hayden.

        Not hating but Datolli and Phillipou need to come in for Hannily and Cleary
        Both can't pick it up and Hannily is a flower bag kick into the fwd line
        Ladhams much more of a ruck than a forward unfortunately. Additionally I wanted to really like Dattoli but hes been very average in the reserves.

        Also controversially, while I do think hanily and Corey Warner probably aren’t AFL level, I think Cleary is starting to show signs

          Heeneys micro second handballs while he’s falling to the ground to someone running past is pure theatre.

            To be fair, Serong was a gun at Hawthorn, he just couldn't get a game. Was ripping it up in the VFL at a great level and just needed a chance. So glad we gave it to him - there is a 200+ gamer for us right there. Love how he plays the game and his versatility is a huge asset.

              We ain't winning a flag with Hamling as a fwd
              I can't see it with Cleary, yet to see him pick it up off the ground.

              Can't have guys in your fwd line as non threats like those two

                Yeah I knew he was bloody good at Box Hill. But you just need to give a consistent performer a go. Maybe Josh Kennedy was similiar lol.

                      Cody Weightman's @@@@wit instincts taking over and umpires lapping it up.

                      Makes me hate AFL

                        That was completely unnecessary.

                          You can argue it was soft but so so dumb Errol. You idiot.

                            Oh Errol! He is a bit rusty and seems frustrated due to it.
