Re: Three things I've learned-Round 12 v Port Adelaide.
1. We cannot replace Dahlhaus.
2. Not sure we can ever rely on Stringer in a big game.
3. Until we win games of football away from a roof, we're not a top side.W00F!Comment

Re: Three things I've learned-Round 12 v Port Adelaide.
1. This team believes they can win games that history says we don't usually. And they can win them, back to back if needed while travelling.
2. When our entries are better, and forward craft better we are more efficient. The leading of Redders & Dicko show that we can play Boyd deep forward and have two good leading, and accurate kicking forwards around Bonts, Jake and others.
3. We can address forward entries and goal kicking accuracy. Caleb Daniel is a good part of it.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: Three things I've learned-Round 12 v Port Adelaide.
1. Bevo is not afraid to change things up - Stringer to wing, Suckling to HFF
2. Bevo has confidence in his players, and gives them a big task, no matter how old they are. 6 players today with less than 20 games.
3. Daniel, Williams - cool in high pressure games.FFC: Established 1883

Re: Three things I've learned-Round 12 v Port Adelaide.
1. We are starting to hold on and win the tight ones.
2. It's the youngsters that are willing us across the line. These young men, The Bont, Stringer, Libba, Daniel, Wallis etc. Are winners.
3. Redpath has only played TWENTY GAMES. You hearing' that? TWENTY GAMES!!!!
He really is on a massive curve upwards atm.Comment

Redders has 14.4 this year & 35.13 in his career. With his accuracy him getting a few more marks and touches a game could take him up a level.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.Comment

Re: Three things I've learned-Round 12 v Port Adelaide.
1. You can win games with half a bench. I knew that but Collingwood didn't know that.
2. You can win games with a lopsided free kick count going against you. I knew that but Adelaide didn't know that. So we went to Adelaide to show them. I don't know if Mark Ruccutto noticed though with all the tears in his eyes from all the sooking he did.
3. Marcus Bontempelli is a star. I knew that. I no longer care if the media will ever work it out. Not one of them had him in their mid year AA team.They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.Comment

Re: Three things I've learned-Round 12 v Port Adelaide.
Our team has more self-belief in their talent and abilities than most critics.
Jake Neade is just a sniper. Pity our Cameron McDonald from the 60's wasn't present at the Suckling incident, very lucky you Jake.
Fletcher Roberts again did some good things, I hope he makes it for his and the team's sake, I was a very harsh critic.Comment
