I don't think anyone ridicules your support of Chad, I think we're all in the same boat there.....but I think they might balk at your fawning over him because you met him and now he's the greatest bloke on earth.You're becoming TB2. Chad's is not a superstar yet......he certainly could be but he's got a long way to go and still has a lot to prove.
But the minute it gets back to Chad that hes superstar material you can forget it. He needs to keep his head down and bum up and just keep doing what hes doing which is working hard and staying focused , the rest will take care of itself as he's got the talentComment

. What I'd like to see in this game is a rise in intensity. Our intensity has been down the last 4 weeks starting with the Dockers game. The stats only tell part of the story. Visual evedence is far more damning.
Players not applying defensive pressure when the opposition have the ball.
Mids being outrun by opponents.
Lack of true tackling pressure.
Lack of scoreboard pressure.
Far too many missed tackles
A growing trend to leave the middle of the ground exposed
Too many relying on too few
Laziness, lack of real effort on the part of too many leading to the backs being highly exposed
This needs to change if we are any chance of a finals birth. If we don't fix all these things this week we will get flogged. We need to bring, in one word, INTENSITY. Without intensity we are @@@@@@.
I hope we are refreshed and eager for the contest. We should be flogging sides below us not losing or only just beating them. We are far too soft. Teams in the Eight, we should be really challenging. We need to do that tomorrow. Not fold like Origami

As for calling me TB2. That’s good but I would prefer to be called TB12. If you think I fawn over Chad then wait to you here my fawn over TB12.
I hope Chad studies everything there is to study about TB12. Who knows, if he studies and emulates the winning habits of a GOAT in one sport he may become the GOAT in his own sport.Comment

Back in the early 90s I became a very morose individual from not coping well after our defeats, and there were an awful lot of defeats. A conga line of shellackings. I would find myself still completely miserable on a Wednesday after the game about the way things had turned out. In the interim years I prided myself on not taking these results too seriously and I'd shake it off over a few hours or so. After all, there wasn't exactly anything I could do about any of this, being as it was completely outside of my control. It probably helped too that we developed a winning culture over that time.
However that loss to Hawthorn too me right back to 92-94. It's still gnawing away at me. There are multiple reasons for this that I can't be arsed going into, but I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's game. Some redemption, effort, drive and purpose is all I want. I don't know if we'll win or lose but I sure hope we bring some energy.It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.
