    Re: AFL Game Day R6

    Soldo was a fair bit worse than Sweet (who was no world beater). It was very poor selection to play both, actually poor to recruit both when they only needed one of them.

    Port were exposed badly today across all areas. Their defence is shaky, their forward line is impotent and their much vaunted mids still cannot handle real heat. Butters and Rozee got a lot of cheap junk late today (JHF got a lot more hardball). They aren't top 4 material.

      Averaged 8.18 touches and 21.36 hit outs for us at AFEL Level.

      First up, 5 touches and 21 hit outs.
      But it's more the intangibles you have to focus on with Jordon, not the tangibles.

      FWIW he was OK around the contest from what I could see, but doesn't do enough around the ground. Only his first game for the year, so hopefully he can get some form under his belt.

        I personally still don’t see him really making the grade. Nothing against him, but I think his lot in life is the back up ruckman. And more power to him, I’d love $150,000-$200,000 to work out all week and party with my mates while not ever paying for drinks. Great if you can get it. But I didn’t see anything new about him today at the top level. I don’t think recruiting Soldo and favouring him as the the number one was going to overly help him.

          I’ve been saying it for nearly 12 months. I like watching GWS.

            Yes they do play a great brand of footy.

              I’m finally seeing Zendaya manipulate two tennis bros tonight so missed most of the second half of the Collingwood game, but that second quarter was as electric as you can play football. They sadly still have their fast ball.

                    Toby apologists will be out in force this week. As he's not tried to do anything other than bump a player running back in a marking contest Anthony Hudson asks what else can he do?

                    Um......not run up and jump into a vulnerable player running back with the flight of the ball? Yer ****wit.

                        Watched the second half. The Blues were very, very good. It all started with them with enormous pressure. When they lifted with pressure GWS could not go with them.

                        Cats are also taking it right up to Lions. Their form this year has completely caught me off guard. I though they were in decline.

                            We have got Freo and we know what happens when a side gets hammered the week before.

                              Let's just hope they don't have a new coach for our game next week, because we know what usually happens.
