    Three things you have learned-round 5 v the Northerners 2020

    Tell us three things you know now that you didn't know before the game vs the cow interferers tonight.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Easton Wood is reborn without carrying an unreasonable load.

    Schache needs to play.

    Alex Keath looks like a perennially pissed off high school PE teacher.

    1. Rhylee West has all the tools to be as dominant as his old man.

    2. Schache worked super hard for not a whole lot of reward tonight, still picked up the two goals. He cleared space for our other forwards to lead by drawing his opponent up the ground.

    3. Tonight was Vandermeers breakout game, he led everyone on the ground for metres gained and he was always willing to move the ball on or take opponents on.

    1. Bont had no influence, and yet we played like it didn't matter. Very good sign.

    2. West, Vandermeer, just two of the youngsters that are starting to create that pressure on the more experienced squad members. That can only be a very good thing for ensuring all guys are focused, working hard and putting their best foot forward. There are just too many ready to take their place.

    3. Mclean may've just found his mojo playing a role he's not really been accustomed too. That can only be good for the flexibility of our midfield unit.

    Can’t improve on those three.

    All these.
    Keath really does look constantly pissed off, and I’m 99% sure half the yelling I hear through the umpire mics is him.

    1. It was worth chasing Keath and Bruce (still think he is over weight)
    2. A team effort is better than relying on one or two players
    3. The forward line structure looked better tonight

    Honestly that's exactly what I'm picturing.

    1. I thought if it were no Bont, no Baz it'd be no Bulldogs. But it wasn't.
    2. Luke Darcy tries so hard to be fair in his comments that he is unfair
    3. Josh Bruce and Alex Keath have been great pick ups at either end.

    1. The tough midfield work of Tom Liberatore and Jackson Macrae is absolutely invaluable.
    2. Vandermeer is an outstanding prospect.
    3. McLean does his best work through the midfield, very good hard running game.

    1. Josh Schache has to play. A smart, natural forward with a big tank. Ran up and down all night.

    2. Vandermeer made me eat a boulder tonight. He was very lively and deserves his spot in the team.

    1. Tim English will be the best 200cm+ player in the comp when he is 25.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
