    It’s not easy scoring from ur back half most of the game because u on average get less inside 50s

    It will fascinating to watch opposition adjustments and our own adjustments this week and the next couple.

    I mean let’s be honest …… do it as clinically and efficiently with our scoreboard pressure last 4 weeks or and good luck to any team to nullify that.

I know his form recently has been flaky but he had a very good match against Brisbane two weeks ago, and he's certainly capable of winning a game off his own boot if the ball gets down there enough. Sam Day, his replacement, is no dud, but he doesn't loom as a potential match winner in the way King does.
      Lukosius is the one to fear now. Casbolt can take a grab, so can Day but they are not going to win games off their own boot.

        When the fixture for the remainder of the season was released, I took note of the times and it was initially 2:10pm. From reading Big Footy it seems like the time changed at least a couple of weeks ago.

          Probably a farewell game. He slogged away and deserved it, particularly given his recovery from the hip injury incident a few years back which if I remember correctly, was described as the equivalent of what someone would suffer in a car accident and basically ruined his career.

          Our contested and clearance game will get tested this week in the midfield. They’re not a cohesive side, but they have some serious ball winners in the middle.

            Maybe it's your methodology? Rather than leaves, try using horse viscera or scat for your auguries. Flight is the other possibility, but we're playing at the SCG this week.

              Can someone start the match thread for me? I’m not in good service area.

                  We are playing far too loose. We upped the pressure. But we are allowing them to play their game. Not playing ours. Everything is rush, rush, rush. 5herevis no system and we are just bombing and turning the ball over. We need to make them play our game. Our blokes need to work harder. We are dropping off the lead and just setting up for a long kick. No second lead.

                    It looks like the Suns have come to play with the pressure they are applying. I hope this time we can withstand the pressure. Seems to be a lot of holding the man without the ball that is not being paid.
