    Agree, probably a bit like Crozier has become. Just not able to get it moving quickly enough, is too one-sided and ends up using the footy a bit haphazardly. I feel like Doc is becoming a bit the same with age.

    Why should we plan for the opposition. Never seems a priority as we follow our clog up game plan.

    MJP - it’s an interesting criticism that I hadn’t thought about before with him being a ball stopper, but his defensive work is so good that I think it more than makes up for it.

    We could've done with a ball stopper in last year's GF to slow some momentum
    They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

    It's a huge game.

    The Aints losing means we can close within a game of them.

    We do need to get on a roll, particularly with our first choice players increasingly available.

    Have I told you if win our next 12 will be in the Grand Final.

    Best case we need to go 6-4 for the rest of the season to make the 8, with a brutal run home. To do more than scrape in we need to storm home from now. This is as close to must win as a round 14 game can be.
