    Basically bands allow you to produce more force (ie. quicker) and for longer, they are a great tool for improving explosive power and strength (perfect for athletes like footballers).

    Shane Ellis excited me like Marcus Adams excites me, both coming into a great team, both good marks.

    Do you mean Craig Ellis. I don't think it could be Shane Ellen.

    Craig Ellis excited my girlfriend at the time too.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Not sure that the post football success of Ellis is luck, but he is certainly now very successful.

    Maybe BIDS'54 is referring to the fact that Ellis was holidaying in NYC (with Dogs teammates) when 9/11 happened, and 12 months later he was holidaying in Bali (with Demons teammates) when the Bali bombings occurred.

    With the below average forward entries, I can't properly judge the forwards tonight. I'd like to see what he'd be like with decent delivery.

    With TBoyd looking like being on the sidelines for a number of weeks it could be another one of Bevo's mnaster strokes

    I thought he was beaten tonight. In fact he also looked tired.
