    I thought Woods arms were telling him to slow down.

    Anyway on a better note there is this

      That was superb and I'm glad it's being recognised.

        Also great effort by Williams keeping his feet. He does it a second time either shortly before or after this as well in another crucial contest.

          I know its only very temporary....but its nice to be 3rd on the ladder. Probably around 6th at the end of the round - but it sure beats being a chance to drop as low as 13th or 14th. Amazing what one straight kick from the Suns could have done to our ladder positioning, finals prospects, confidence going into a tough run, and all of our Friday & weekends....

            Now we can sit pack and hope GWS pummels Richmond into the dust
            Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              His footy IQ is really only matched by Pendles. It's off the charts and his ball use (as we know) is first rate.

              My only question at times is if we could do with him playing further up the ground, delivering into F50 because our entries can be a mess.
              And I don’t see the point of having him do the kick in. I saw Williams do a kick-in that put the ball close to the centre line. If we had a plan to get it into Daniel’s hands out there I’m sure we would have a more effective forward line. At the moment most of our scoring is not coming from structured forward play.

                Daniel has the skill to hit a 30m pass in the backline, to a player who can then send the second kick beyond the centre circle, or turn and run to break the lines. He is also very capable of the quick play on and 45-50m kick which gets the ball 60-70m away, when there are no other options.

                I like having one of our smartest players taking the kick ins.

                  My only concern is our percentage.

                    He was ranked as the best kick in the AFL by champion data. We are also the number one team to go coast to coast - so I don't have any issues at all.

                      Just watched the replay and I thought Bruce was bad with his love affair with Carey but OMG the love for GC by Dwayne, Riewoldt and Brown was incredible , every player is a champion and every time one of their players got the ball their voices raised to Dame Nellie proportions, when we got it it was a low disappointing voice over.
                      They were willing GC home like they had a million on them.
                      Must say I did found it funny when the GC player apparently pointed out he didn’t touch the ball that went through for a goal but Dwayne knew better ?
                      Terrible one sided commentary.

                          I've been watching Nick Cave since the '80s and have all sorts of war stories. I can still remember where I was the first time I heard Release the Bats because that song changed my life and I didn't think I could have idolised him any more more than I did when I was younger but damn almighty he has grown into the preeminent Australian song writer/musician. Each album is almost perfect but then the next release is even better.

                          As a matter of interest did you know that Graeme Richmond the man who put together those Richmond premiership teams in the 60s and 70s was the manager/licensee of the Crystal Ballroom in St Kilda where the Birthday Party used to play? No Richo=no Birthday Party= no Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds!

                          How was that with Dwayne? THE PLAYER HIMSELF SAID HE DIDN'T TOUCH IT but Dwayne was ready to leave his commentary position and run onto the ground to overrule him.
                          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                            Williams' effort to beat two GC players and knock the ball out of their attacking zone is pretty good too.

                              It was wonderful by Williams, composure, smart thinking. I really rated his game. Vanda has the right stuff. I thought he’d be overtaken in that contest, his legs looked heavy, but he just willed himself through.
