    Re: The Moment, Rnd 22, 2019 vs GWS

    Naughton staring down at Davis after being manhandled all day was fantastic, last week it was Smith on Stringer, our young boys have the arrogance and hardness to make us one of the best.
    I can’t believe Smith with half a pre season was pushing stringer around, Stringers no light weight and had apparently been in the gym building up all preseason.
    That’s scary what Smith could become in the next few years, the same as Naughton he will be one big strong hard unit in a year or so.
    Bring back the biff

      Was that the “hit” that led to the suspension of Jack Redpath the one that continued into the following season because of more AFL farce in ruling that he shouldn’t have played in a practice match? Seeing it again makes me see red (sorry). Davis should be embarrassed. I did love the posse supporting Aaron, I’m sure Big Tough Davis had been into him all day.

        That's the one. I believe it was 3 weeks

          Smith was getting stuck into Shaw yesterday too. Our boys hunt in packs these days and it's one in, all in (as it should be, footy is all about supporting your mates) it was Shaw v Smith and Lloyd yesterday and Stinger V Smith and Wood (I think) last week. Shaw or Stringer would push one out of the way only to have the other in his face.

          That's the one. It ended up turning into 4 weeks and it's a fair point to say that it ended his career prematurely.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            I mentioned in the '3 Things' thread how satisfying it is to see Shaw being stuck into.

            For whatever reason, we are able to rattle him far more than any other club. He was exposed in the prelim for it and again yesterday.

            As for the 'stare down', I have no doubt that Davis would have been trying to get into his ear at various stages during the game. To see him sprawled on his back with 3 of Aaron's teammates reminding him of his rightful place brought warm feelings to my heart.

              Any other year, he’d be hands down rising star. If he was at another club of course

                Was downgraded, we appealed - lost - and then full 3 weeks handed down I think

                    He could have. Thankfully the GWS doctors put him back out on the ground.

                      Yes and that is what the MRO would have taken notice of. He played out the game.

                        To be fair a lot of didn't notice the fact he was playing in an iron lung.
                        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
