Three things you've learnt round 15 2022 v Hawthorn
Golly it's round 15 already. This week I've found out how quickly time flies these days.
Tell us three things you've learnt tonight.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

1. Weightman probably should have been rested.
2, Aaron Naughton is very protective of his headband.
3. With more aggression Josh Schache could be a very valuable player, certainly has the ability.

Schache certainly showed more aggro tonight, marking, in ruck duels and even strong sticking tackles. But I've seen it before so fear it is fool's gold - sigh!

Josh needs to watch all the incredible Hulk movies and scenes from the Avengers.
Lewis took tome telling Marks by using his 207 cm physique and just force his presence in the contest. 4 goals
Schache could be anything with his 201 cm frame and 94 kg weight ... he just has to absorb Hulk's aggression for 90 mins for the game. BRING IT ON!

I was about to post the best thing for Josh would be to watch some pretend stuff instead of working hard at training, thanks for getting in first.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Josh's father who played with the Brisbane Bears wasn't considered to be tough enough for coach Robert Walls. Story is that to toughen him up Walls had player after player box Laurence with the intention of making him tougher. It was cruel to see according to some witnesses. It wasn't known at the time but Laurence had a heart condition and unfortunately died at 35 years old. Sad story. Later in life Walls attempted to down play the incident.

I didn't know his dad copped that treatment from Walls et al at Brisbane. I did know it happened to Shane Strempel.
Walls is a dick.

Josh later moved to Seymour with his Mother hence the WB connection. He works out at a local gym in Seymour run by one of our Club’s major donors. Still young enough to be a very effective key forward with good skills but has lacked confidence in the past.

1. West is becoming a real threat. Offers plenty offensively and defensively at the moment.
2. Crozier is cooked and McNeil isn't up to it. Add McComb but I knew these things already. I hope our MC realise it.
3. Libba is still king. What a player.

Crozier has been cooked for 2 years so it was a surprise he was picked. McComb it is staggering he still in the team.

Happy for either Hunter/Garcia for McComb. Not fussed on that as any would be an upgrade. Would like to see Cleary get a chance of half back. He shows a bit of composure for someone with little experience which is something Crozier no longer has.

1. Our backline continues to be our Achilles heel.
2. Sign West for 4 years
3. When Libba is on, he’s an unstoppable beast
I will never see #16 the same!!
