    Question Three things I've learned-V North round 6

    All we want are three things that you know now that you didn't know before the game.

    Write them down and post 'em up and we'll see how many are the same.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    I really like Ben Brown. I didn't think I did, but I do.

    We never lower our eyes when we're 70-90 metres out.

    The deliberate out of bounds is an absolute crapshoot. That one against the North guy just after he'd put on an incredible spoil was ridiculous.

    We need a big key full forward especially when we bomb it long
    Missed JJ and Murphs run from the back, we seemed to go sideways to much
    Our skills and composure need to improve, but in all it was a good test tonight. We are not to far off it.

    1. This feels so bad. I want a dig hole and jump in it.
    2. This will give our haters much ammo.
    3. A reality check it seems.

    Reckon we need to play another key forward
    Need more composure going forward, and not bomb it.
    Our effort was great, but we need to improve our field kicking under pressure

    1. Adcock - just a hack - we are wasting games on him.
    2. Dale - 1 season at least from a big game. How did he get a game ahead of Webb, Honeychurch or Redpath?
    3 No mark forward line. Pretty embarrassing when Jong and McLean are the only guys who can contest a mark.

    There was no lack of effort but injuries have set us back.
    Jake Stringer is being crucified up forward, 1 against 2, 1 against 3, get Jack Redpath in.
    Bailey Dale is not yet up to it and Fletcher Roberts is just not up to it.

    I'll do my best Damien Barrett impersonation...

    IF

    people think Jack Redpath would have helped with those forward entries,

    THEN

    they are sadly mistaken.

    If only we had a 200cm+ beast on our list who draws defenders and brings the ball to the ground every time...oh, wait.

    1 - Fans don't look hard enough at our inefeciencies when we win but go pretty hard at them when we lose
    2 - We have a way to go to really be considered a genuine contender but we still have an exciting list
    3 - We need Bontempelli and Stringer and a few others to lift soon.

    If you're really Barrett you'd be saying 'The Dogs overpaid for an untried kid who didn't even register a single mark or goal tonight. Pretty embarassing really, and you'd have to think Talia would've been the difference and Libba's issues are impacting the club. What a basket case.'

    Your #1 is pretty to the point.

    I think that's pretty normal for fans from every club.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Captain's pick for a 4th point.

    4 - Catching up with Bornadog made the result of the game a bit more bearable

    1. Until we develop some poise, the ability to pause for a nano second and sum up a situation better we will be performing well short of our full potential.

    2. If you can miss a second year third round pick player then we did. Would have loved Caleb Daniel to slow things down hit a few targets and maybe get behind the defence and kick a goal or two.

    3. If Jaryd Waite had of played for us we would have won.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
