    I would really like Sam Reid to really get into this game, agree no forward structure whatsoever so far!

      So based on the game so far I'm assuming we're taking ever spot in the AA this year? Maybe Jamar can get a guernsey!
      I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
      We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

            I think that Tommy Walsh is getting better as the game goes on. I think he's definitely part of the solution.

              Today is the day that players can play themselves into form, a good percentage also would be great, touch would no injuries.

                  True - needs to get his confidence back. Moreover, Walsh and LRT have both been terrific.
                  He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                    It is so so so very important we go on with this. You only have to look at the ladder to realise at the end of the year the difference between finishing top 2 or as low as 5th n 6th will most likely come down to %

                    Heck if we go on with it n results go our way tonight n tomorrow we can jump to first on the ladder.

                      Should play him in the backline in the second half. Watts looks a different player in the backline. Maybe Reid is not a true forward right now.

                        Well Port beat Norf, so anything can happen, Tigers beat Essendon? I doubt it

                          Pyke may not have a lot of stats but he sure gives a contest. We should be smashing this mob out of the centre but we're not.

                          Jack continues his good form.

                              It might seem churlish to say this when we are sixty points up but this game is leaving me more rather than less worried about our forward line, and the delivery into it. Our goals are almost entirely a result of stoppages in the forward line. Is it too much to try and hit a leading forward. Next week we are playing a decent team with a decent on ball crew. I want to see us actually hit a target occasionally this half.

                                The biggest thing I want to see is a four quarter effort. Can we actually keep up a decent effort for the whole game? I would be very surprised if the final margin is above sixty, to be honest.
