    Blakey in particular will be a superstar with reasonable luck. His last quarter for an 18yo 1st year player was enormous in the absence of Buddy and Sinclair.

    No matter how we are going, how damn good is it to beat the Poos and Wees - great way to start the weekend!
    Ling said it actually, he's mentally strong.

      Out coached? How? We beat them, don't confuse a better side with better coaching.

        Was Clarke on Scully or Henderson? He did well if he was on Scully (8 possessions) but got creamed if he was on Henderson (29 possessions).

          I stand by my assertion. Post win hysteria.

            I thought Clarke played decent regardless of tagging

                I haven't bothered watching Roaming Brian for ages. I am remembering why. The main problem is, that as an interviewer, he rarely listens to the player’s replies. Which makes most of it pointless.

                  Yep. Footy brain is great, he is mentally strong and can think through his play. Once his body starts to catch up with that he will be a very fine player indeed.

                  Gee I think we are going to enjoy watching our team of Cygnets grow up over the next few years. There is the basis for a very fine football team starting to come together.

                    It’s going to be an absolute blast watching Nick Blakey for the next 15 years. Great game from a young, and again, undermanned team.

                      Sorry everyone I jinxed Buddy ????.
                      We finally beat the Hawks up in Sydney but I feel deflated. It was going to be his 300th next week too.

                        Another good performance by Rose, solid contribution by Clarke. Menzel did some good things. Good sign when our fringe players are looking the part in seniors.

                          Poignant interview with Roughead just now.

                              The baton exchange between he and Buddy couldn't have been timed more perfectly. In a couple of years Buddy will be struggling whilst The Lizard will be hitting his straps.

                                Loved Dawson's game tonight too. He has an excellent pair of hands and always measures his kicks. Let's hope there's no issue in resigning him this year.
