Jarrad Grant catches a body:

My takeaway from this is that Tom Campbell might still make it with us.

Jarrad Grant had talent oozing out of him, just must be a massive space cadet.

I think he got stuffed around by Macca. Grant was a forward goal sneak, but Macca tried to use him elsewhere which didn't work.

I seem to recall a player being knocked out and that seemed to be the catalyst for a vastly improved focus after half time.
Libba led, and many others followed. Didn't we kick 7 goals in the last quarter?

Wasn't that Ablett snr running through Rohan Smith? Smithy was playing half back and Ablett came running out from full forward and pole axed him.

That was at the Western Oval. Kretiuk was playing on Ablett Snr and had him under control.
Ablett got frustrated and whacked one of our guys and Kretiuk got in his face and said something along the lines of "I thought you were supposed to be a tough player but that was just weak as" (I've cleaned it up a bit)
3 or 4 minutes later Ablett lined up Smith and knocked him out.
A brouhaha followed and when it cleared Ablett and Kretiuk were running back to the goal square where the normally quiet Ablett said "Tough enough for you?" Kritter clearly got the message decided to shut up for the rest of the game to protect his team mates.

I heard Kretiuk being interviewed after the game and that was his account of what happened

Do I get a bonus point for using "brouhaha" I'm going to try and use hullabaloo soon

Remember the final in '94 or '95 when Ablett really took Kritter to the cleaners in the first quarter? Ablett kicked 4 or 5 in a devastating burst. I asked Kretiuk about it one day and he said "First contest and as I reach for the ball Ablett throws his hand as hard as he could at my face and the hard bit at the bottom of his hand caught me in the eye socket and pushed the eyeball right up into my head. I couldn't see a thing but there was no way I was going to let him know that"


How. *!*!*!*!ing. Tough?

I saw Kretiuk the week between when Wheeler got the sack and Joyce took over and we were chatting and I said hopefully you and Croft can remain fit for the rest of the year. He then said not going to happen - Joyce went old school and made everyone get out on the track regardless of fitness and Croft tore his hammy.

I think Kretiuk was totally shocked someone recognised him in the middle of the cbd.

Barry was fantastic for us and he loved playing at the club he grew up following. Would have been handy in 2009

I love how Chris Grant takes approximately 50% of all these marks.

The 6:10 mark of this clip though it deserved more than clumsy editing. That game made me realise we were building something real.
