    Yep.

    The way he uses Blicavs is genius. Totally stymied Wines tonight as well as putting up good numbers himself.

    I used to think that Corey Enright only used to make the AA team because they forgot to rub his name off the whiteboard from the year before, but his form so late in his career is remarkable.

      Agree RM we can certainly match it with the best we just need to capitalise and beat those 'struggling teams'. Hopefully we can capitalise over the next few weeks.

        A lack of composure at crucial times has really cost us a few times this season.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          Good observations. The Cats really shut down that movement out of the stoppages as you say. They gained many metres against us over the back of boundary throw ins but Scott obviously watched our game closely and worked it out.
          But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

            Always rated Enright very highly. A model of consistency throughout his career.

                Our round 1 performance is looking better and better
                If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                  I think our coach is going through our list looking for a player who can do at least some of what Blicavs can do. Every club will want the next Blicavs. His type of player will become an obsession with recruiters and the media.

                    I'd love Gary Rohan in the tri colours.

                      Ah but BT isn't our Rohan, one J.Grant?
                      More of an In Bruges guy?

                        Yeah I said this after the Sydney match. Just what we need.

                          Blicavs is a freak.olympic contested runner with a good footy nous. Scott once said he could run all day. He topped the cats time trial in one of his first preseaons. He is the stynes of the current modern era of mobile ruckman. He topped the tackling count last night for the cats!

                            Caught Carlisle staring at Nic Nat with an exhhasabated look on half time .
                            Sydney's outside run beat North tonight, as well as Cutting off their forward entries.
                            North look off top 4 pace, and the pressures on with their recruiting .

                              No doubt we'll get his press secretary Mark Slobbo Robinson going in to defend him again.
                              Apparently we're all " Hird Haters " if you critique his coaching
                              Sounds like the offering of a teenage pop star

                                Hardly remarkable that a middle distance runner just off Olympic Qualifying Standard would win the time trial.

                                He has been remarkable in the way he competes in the air and on the ground.
