    Me too. I think his preseason training and news reports of same could've been outstanding under Bevo. As for today, I'm surprised a missed almost certain goals with his kicking. Happy, but surprised.

    Glad to see Higgins miss that shot late. Hopefully his recent form departs him and his career amounts to nothing.

    He got a bit of it tonight but only had 1 inside 50 - not a particularly damaging performance.

    His one inside 50 hit up Ben Brown with a nice slice of a pass though.

    That kick went about 9 metres, 10 at most.

    I was dissapointed with Hrovat. I've always seem him as a slightly worse version of Daniel. Zippy and small, gets a fair amount of possessions but not a heap (around 20 instead of 30) but is very tidy and doesn't waste a disposal. Daniel has always been far more damaging with his disposal, but Hrovat shouldn't be far off.

    Yesterday though he turned the ball over a lot and when he had it was rarely particularly constructive or damaging. I'd be hoping for more if I was North.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    Yep, for a 'small outside good user' he's not composed or damaging enough. Has elements of Lewis Taylor and Jason Tutt in his game
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    So the ballad of Liam Jones needs addressing. Last week he was trialled at full back and had 7 kicked on him by former Hawthorn and Brsbane potato Jordan Lisle. This week, he was trialled in the ruck, and gave up 67 hitouts to a State league ruckman. He did, however, show enough of that competitive beastiality to win the Northern Blues Barrel House Distribution Sympathy Award of the Week per their fb page.

    I'm never going to forgive that gronk for conning me into rating him.

    They just need to bring in his hundred plus thousand left in wages to any him in cash and beg for him to just leave. Including signing off on his contract to allow him to go to a country league club and earn some more cash. It's just getting messy now.

    What's going on with Koby Stevens? St Kilda haven't exactly got a great midfield and they're down Armitage, and he's still not getting a game. Seems the excitement to get him isn't as strong as the will to select him.
