However...... He does not chase hard enough on the way out. proved again tonight. Hangs off waiting forward, not pushing into dangerous positions when we don't have the ball. Simply, he does not work hard enough.
Finally we disagree!!!

I didn't think TDL's pressure that bad. I thought all our deep forwards including Goodsie & LRT were a bit loose at times tonight. I thought even Maca when he played forward for a while was allowing his player a bit of ground on the kick ins. We seem to play the zone that allows them the first one or two kicks and this is no good against the Hawks or a side that has someone like Jetstar who can break the lines. They had a bloke like that in the second half tonight and he is very quick just like Jetstar. I think his name is Leon Patrick and he caused some consternation tonight.
I thought the first half was pretty ordinary. We played about 10 mins in the first that was really good but the second and the rest of the half was crap. The injury to Reid would not have helped our balance at all and restructuring didn't work too well.
The second half was much better but I still thought we overused the ball and fumbled our way to a win.Comment

Yay- couldn't get 7mate up here at Nelson Bay- and the wireless was Steve And statics - but reading this yay doesn't matter how we got there - we won, we won well and we are stand alone first- no complaints from me- I think another drink is required. The unholy trinity are painting the town beige!I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

Totally agree. Nice to have an actual forward who tries to kick goals like a forward is meant to do. LRT & Benny play those defensive forward roles, we dont need everyone doing it. His pressure was good, he tackled and chased well. Did enough in my opinion to keep his spot and continue to make us dangerous when it goes inside 50. Good Job TDL!Comment

LRT: 12 disposals, 6 tackles, 4 goals
TDL:11 disposals, 5 tackles, 2 goals
How does that fit? Especially against a young side?Comment

The Swans got the job done, however I liked watching the Suns have a crack and how many of them have cloned some of the skills of Ablett. He's had a massive influence on their style of play, speed of disposal, dodging and weaving. Gave Sydney something to think about for awhile."He was proud of us when we won and he was still proud of us when we lost' Tami Roos about Paul Sept 06.Comment

TDL is not hard enough at the ball for mine, he is the first man out as far as I'm concerned, although we may need him again next week, given everything tha thappened in that game. I loved watching Goodes speed bump Brown, supposed hard manYou can't argue with a sick mind - Joe WalshComment
