    1. Ed Richards should be in the conversation for the 40-man AA squad. One of those players that makes you feel safe when they have the footy.

    2. One poor moment on the wing aside, really impressed with Bailey Dale's defending this year. He has that spurt of pace over 5 metres that means he's never out of the contest. There was a really good defensive spoil on the wing that I don't think 2022 Bailey Dale makes.

    3. Bont has the Hird-like ability to switch it on when he needs to get going. You could see the hackles went up in the second term and he decided to go to work. Think he's the only player in the comp at the moment that can put a team on his back and change a game's momentum. He reminds me of Chris Judd in 2010 at the moment - the side needs a rough and tumble inside mid? I'll go and do it.

      If you look at his heritage it is Richmond.

        Sure. And my heritage is Welsh/English but I'd lead the revolution if I was promised a Coa$tal Life$tyle.

          What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

            We still concede consecutive goals. still. good teams are going to beat us every time. Part of that is we seem to go to sleep at centre bounces/clearances
            We need tackling practice
            We can't put teams away
