    If we are going to judge all potential contact frees by the resultant level of hurt, the game is in big trouble.
    What's more Caldwell had an obligation to turn his body because he was running with the flight and did not do so

      Gotta say, I’d watched a bit of Ladhams at Port and thought he had some potential, but didn’t quite appreciate his skill and decision making around the ground in general play.

      And don’t get me wrong, he’s still a ruckman. But he’s got quite good, quick hands in close and feeds it out to the right choice, and his kicking skills are pretty efficient. He largely plays to those limits too, and does it consistently under pressure.

      You’d like him to develop his marking skills around the ground, but overall, he’s been a clear plus.
      'Delicious' is a fun word to say

        I wrote off Ladhams after the 1st three rounds this year.

        In the words of TB, Ladhams has proved me wrong.

        I apologise for getting this prediction wrong.

          Surely you are taking the PI55. He was ordinary all right, he didn't play the first 3 rounds.

            It’s ok Bangalore- we all can make mistakes- even TB: though it doesn’t happen too often on his part!????

              That's a bit too clever, Banga. But I like it.

              You are well and truly fair game now. I know you'll enjoy hearing that.

                Two rucks is the way to go, you are never compromised at CB's and around the ground, rucks stay fresher during games and also as the year unfolds into finals

                Papley back in form after delayed start

                Mills immense, 79 pressure acts!

                Warner's best game?

                Errol was great, what an asset, what a footy brain

                the Iron McCartin impassable

                Blakey doing the kick ins - yes!

                Essendon, pathetic. Parker just adding to their mental agony LOL. I'm enjoying their continued ineptness :-)

                  One week for Rowbottom. Careless, medium impact and high. As I suspected, fact he ran past the ball appears to have cost him. Hard to argue with.

                    I wonder if they'll give Clark or Taylor a go? Wouldn't mind seeing Clarke on Cripps or someone similar to be honest

                      But I got Ladhams so wrong. I wrote him off early and now he’s playing very well.

                      I let down everyone with my erroneous prediction.

                        You really need an emoji at the start of posts like this to confirm that you’re kidding. You are kidding. Right?

                            About expected I guess. Not the end of the world

                              Buddys activity around the ground, his quick shimmies, and his low bullet stab passing to a team-mate are just a thing a class .
                              He looks really well (despite a blow to the kidneys) and in terrific shape . He still loves playing so much. How many more games in this bloke ?

                                Time for Roberts debut or Stephens . These are the future stars
