The Moment, Rnd 22, 2019 vs GWS

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in today's game against GWS Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage.'

Bonts aggression. Dialled it up today and I think they were surprised by it.

Agree with the moment Bont started throwing his weight around, and the shirt front on Haynes, knocked the sail out of not only Haynes, but the whole team. 5 behinds in the second half to our 10 goals , 12 in a row.

Yes Bonts 5 minutes of aggression was it in a nut shell. Good leaders see an opportunity and take it. He was quite and thought what can I do to impact the game. Didn’t the boys lift after this.

GWS didn’t like the hard stuff.

Yep. The shirtfront on Haynes, some treatment he gave DeBoer when he had a chance and then one where he made a GWS player 'earn it'.. just seemed to send a message to the rest of the team to up their aggrrssion and intent.

Yep, this in spades.

I love how because he's a pure ball player some teams think he might be susceptible to some 'attention'.

Onya, Giants' brains trust you absolute geniuses.

I reckon it would be player ignorance more than anything else. Some just don't understand that there's players who you can rattle with physicality, and others you can't.

There was the game against Norf where they tried it and the competition should have learned immediately from that the rough stuff just makes him go up a notch.

As a tagger you're better off trying to get between him and the ball drop, do absolutely everything you can to try and cut in front of him, rather than rough him up. He's much to big to play from behind.

Anyway, I tend to agree with everyone, as soon as Bont took it up to them the rest of the team was triggered.

The last qtr, the plastics simply gave up, Shaw copped a 50m penalty Lloyd goaled and half the team got into Shaw.

I loved seeing Bailey Smith first in line to get into Shaw's gig face. The Baileys have really come good over the last few weeks.

Naughtons death stare on Davis after that mark in the last qtr was gorgeous

[Eastdog]

The start of the 3qtr with all their misses. We got it back after that then never looked back and they never got going.

Reminded me so much of how EJ played the game. Bont you are a star.

Good observation Eastie. They really blew their chances. And i think we went forward and snagged a goal soon after, and they dropped their bundle.
It almost seemed reminiscent of how we had played at times earlier in the year, where we shot ourselves in the foot with poor goalkicking after dominating play, and then conceding a goal.

If he is going to do that, he must nail the goal.

Another good year he has had but I little bit to work on in front of goal.
