    Adams is a gun, speaks well and as you say has cleaned up his onfield antics

    Huh? I think you mean last Saturday Arvo.

    He hasn't been charged with assault or drunk and disorderly for a little while either, so that's a pretty good effort too.

    Greene’s offield was even worse.

    Interestingly Adams was very strong on DeGoey and his off field issues. Hypocritical to say the least.

    Maybe he's grown up? Maybe he's seen the error of his ways?

    Spot on. I really hate how we seem to not allow anyone to improve.

    No one's stopping them. Perhaps let's establish even a moderate form line before heaping praise on them however.

    It depends on your threshold I guess.

    I don't consider being arrested in the past 3 years particularly impressive behaviour, but that's me. Granted it's been 6 years since he's been arrested for serious assault, but again having never been charged with assault in 30+ years I'm not overly impressed by lasting 6 years without another arrest. Maybe if he gets through the offseason celebration without being arrested again I'll tip my hat to him.

    Before we heap praise, yeah of course. Has anyone heaped praise on him. Maybe he's grown up isn't exactly doing that

    WC defense holding this team together and I don't know if they can hold it all game. Pies pressure is just far to good up the ground andbthe Eagles just want to get the ball out as quick as possible. Darling always has been fools gold.
