    But i wonder if instead of kicking forward if the player looked for support behind or to the side where we had numbers might be better. We did that so well last year. Buy immediate time to close support by hand, let runners get forward of play then move by foot

      I love Zaine. He hates everyone and likes hurting people. It's something we've been missing for about 15 years before now.

          It's a wet day, little possession close to opposition goal is not ideal. It's so hard to tell what is going on across the field watching on the couch.

            Love Zaine playing as a dedicated backman. He improves us.

              Liked Stringer's game so far. Certainly been more active tonight.

                Geez Fletcher Roberts is an honest footballer. Not a compliment.

                  Great tackles this quarter, some very important ones.

                      Fletcher Roberts has embarrassed himself and should be ashamed. Pathetic effort on the wing, worst of the season.
                      TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                          That's why Roughy was playing in defence in front of Fletch.

                            Roberts playing with the confidence of a bloke perpetually in and out of the side.

                              Roberts constantly makes me nervous - no that's not a Bruceism.
