    He was dropped after 15 possessions in a game last year , and again after 14 and a goal against Adelaide when the team scored only two. Disgraceful treatment.

    and that’s not criticising Richards.

    1. Tim English's tap work was a vast improvement. His around the ground efforts continue to impress and I loved his forward work.

    2. A win is a win is a win.

    3. Pat Lipinski played his best game...according to Bevo. Shows what a stint in the VFL can do learning new tricks.

    I agree, but what new tricks? I think he played nearly as well in a few games last year. He has some talent.

    Learning to play in and under to add to his outside work.

    Richards showed something in all his games, Webb didn't. Disgraceful treatment, really???

    I certainly think so.

    The previous year , 2017, he got 2 consecutive games against West Coast and Geelong.

    He had the same number of possessions as Clay Smith and kicked more goals. In my opinion that is showing something.

    Naturally he was dropped.

    Against West Coast that’s 2 goals out of a team total of 8. in my opinion that is showing something.

    I dont think theres any doubt certain footballers get more of a chance than others with Bevo. He has his favourites.

    Well I see it differently, so we will agree to disagree.

    You don't know that, it is just a perception.

    1, Libba makes us a far better side. Interesting the first half we set up more like our best kids stay on ball. Wingers just stay out and run the lines.

    2, We miss Morris. He would have taken Curnow and taken the pressure of Cordy. The back six just need his leadership

    3, We have done serous talent on the list. We just need to play In position and be well coached.
    BB.

    Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

    I think Daniel is having an outstanding season overall. He's now our go to in tough defensive situations because of his decision making and elite ability to execute (most of the time). He gets it right more than he gets in wrong - more often than not under intense pressure. It is still infuriating when he kicks it relatively free from pressure directly to an opposition player 35 out directly in front of goal, but take the downs with the ups.
    The dam wall has busted!
