Round 2 v Adelaide at the SCG

[tlock]

The rookies are making Oliver Florent look second rate, don't know why Horse keeps persisting with him.

[The Great One]

Only used 73 rotations so I think it was about looking after two of our most valuable and not replaceable players once the game was safely in the bag.

Agree with that. Why risk those 2 when we are 50 points in front. I guess this is what Longmire means by "managing buddy". I would like to see Buddy used more regularly as a decoy when being double teamed.

[Bangalore Swans]

I didn’t see the game as I was at a Catalina lunch. Very Sydney. I saw the Swans won and scored over 100 points. How did my flankers go? Florent, Guldon, Campbell, McInerney, Blakey?

Was Wicks on fire?

[Blood Fever]

A George Hewett special. Will he ever learn.

Still learning to play in the backline

Thought he was solid today. Rampe was worse when taking people on. Still looks a bit rusty.

Where has this nickname come from? I've seen it on here and on Bigfooty a number of times.

His name is literally Chad.

If you're not "in" with internet culture, a chad is a term for someone seen as an alpha male

Gulden and Campbell were terrific. Great games. Florentine and McInerney both solid. Blakey was very ordinary. Poor game. You could add Lloyd and Rampe in that group as well. A lot of work in the defence is required.

Blakey a touch quite, but did some nice things. All the rest were very good and a few would argue that Campbell was BOG. When we really put Adelaide away, in the second and third quarters, he was probably the main driver of that surge. Wicks topped the side for pressure acts and was equal top for tackles.

[The Great One]

Anyone think if we continue with a,fully functioning forward and half forward setup with Buddy, McDonald, Heeney, Gulden, Papley with cameos from others including Warner that Reid might spend more time in the back half and/or the ruck?

Unfair on Lloyd and Rampe. They tried hard. Men in green gave them nothing. In fact took away from them.

That was a 22 man effort. Maybe 21. Blakey no good. I would replace him with Stephens on the wing. Hopefully he comes in next week. Then we probably have our best team out on the park. & we will need it. Tigers at the G is the toughest ask in footy right now

I would be happy with that, depending on the opposition.

Good point.

Yes I know his name is Chad but didn't know where "The Chad" came from. Thanks for explaining.

Ho hum.

That's the correct response to such dribble being dished out as per normal from said poster Bexl. Always got the claws out for those that have done some wrong to them in a prior life.
