Big upset with Adelaide knocking over the Pies.
Dangerfield and Thompson murdering them in the clearances , and Jenkins prominent up forward.
Collingwood looked right off, and Adelaide were on. How Mckernan was playing ahead of Jenkins is mind boggling.

Bet Essendon wish they hadn't let him go now.

Become a good player. One of the worst MC decisions in 2014 was the Ravens not playing Jenkins early doors.
You'd imagine Nathan Brown would return to The Pie line up next week.
What would people here think on recruiting Brown? They've got a plethora of tall backs

Is he too much like Roughead? Big, not so nimble or agile.

How fun is it watching Buddy when he gets his tail up?

Re: 2014 AFL - Round 9 Discussion

One of the loveliest sounds at the footy. The bummer fans booing the umpires. Must mean they are losing. How I love that sound.

Commentary is all about Essendon's endeavor rather than just how clinical the Swans have been.

Re: 2014 AFL - Round 9 Discussion

I haven't been the biggest advocate of key forwards on this forum but gee, the Tippett-Franklin combination is just looking incredible. Perfectly complimentary players.

Where does this all leave Sam Reid?

At the Bulldogs?

Not sure he'll function as the third tall.

He's getting lost as third wheel, and even Parker is ahead of him.
Dogs should be looking IMHO

Tend to think the same, he's not mobile .
