RWO #AFL Round 2 weekend discussion thread

I know we got a 2nd round pick for this years draft off of Collingwood for Sam Murray but everytime I watch him play I see something that we have been lacking for many years, a player who takes the game on with his pace and kicks it long from half back.

Doesn't Newman naturally do that? I suspect we don't see as much of that from him because he's been told to alter his game style.

Okay, I'll be the first to say the unclean words, "Go the Pies".

Don't forget, we want them to finish bottom this year so our 2nd pick is as high as possible. The fat campaigner is going to be spewing ???? .

Yes, but I can imagine a best of both worlds situation, where the Pies finish bottom and their only wins are against GWS and Hawthorn. Possibly one or two more, against Essendon and Carlton.

I see the Bulldogs further cemented the truth of actually being fraudulent premiers.......

Am at the Hawthorn game and they are looking very quick. Impey in the forward line has added speed plus they have Cyril and Puopulo.

McEvoy has been best on ground...how nice would it be to have a ruckman like that!

Scores level......Cats on the march! Dangerwoodlett doing nicely now.

Hate to say it but the Hawks look on the rise and dangerous. Clarkson is a good coach indeed.

Selwood continues to get head high frees

Great to see we play both these teams twice (NOT), although if we want to play at the pointy end of the season it is a necessity.

Have to say I am a little bit over the gushing of Tom Mitchell (although this has nothing to do with him leaving us) as I am also over the same thing with CYRIL.

I know it's been commented on before, but I wonder whether Chris Scott has yet realised how much of a dork he looks riding every umpiring decision as if he were a barracking fan. Most coaches will sometimes react when they think a horrendous one has gone against them, but they don't bang the table in glee every time their team actually does get a free.

I really liked Clarkson's reaction at the end of the game. Rather than stand up, jump up and down and bang the glass (which Scott would have done had the result gone the other way), he just sat motionless for an age. It wasn't unlike Longmire's response after the Essendon game last year.

Geelong got an amazing run of free kicks in that last 10 minutes.

C.Scott strikes me as a smug know all unlike his brother.

Happens quite a lot. Umps seemed to help fuel their comeback. Found myself barracking for Hawks!

He is a disgrace to the game.
