Re: Round 3 Discussion
With how rich West Coast are and with the beltings they've given us over the past 25 years, I'm really, really enjoying this.

It's official: the Suns are the softest team we've seen in years.
I can't believe it's not butter.

I like May though. Do we an inside player and non first round pick to trade? Would allow Roughy to play back, forward or ruck.

Soft mentally or soft physically?
I watched a bit of the game and thought GC were all over them, but just couldn't put them away.

Should we be surprised ie. Clayton's recruiting and his obsession with outside soft skilled players?
Yep, although I really liked what I saw of Jack Martin yesterday. He's had no continuity due to injury but he has some serious tricks and is also very brave for his size. That last goal he kicked was class, skill and natural footy smarts personified.

Both.
Have they ever won a game without Gary? They're mentally the weakest side I've ever seen at the moment. They allowed a depleted Geelong side to kick 6 unanswered goals in the third quarter and didn't give a yelp during this period. They have no leaders - just talent.
Physically they started getting more desperate late yesterday but the fact remains they still couldn't get the job done against a side without many of its stars and many inexperienced/average young players. Selwood slaughtered them because he simply wanted it more.
They have huge issues and Rocket has his hands full given the sides weaknesses have been a hallmark of his previous sides weaknesses.

Agreed - he was really impressive. Definitely puts his body into the contest, despite his physical limitations. Great mark overhead too.
