    Spoilers, Guns and Money - R8

    For all the guys and girls that are not going to the game today you can posts your thoughts as they appear on the TV.

    Spoilers = A (One) player that did not quite measure up to expectations and the reasons why?
    Guns = 3 players that stood out on the night and the reasons why?
    Money = Someone who's skills stood out in the game? This can be one particular passage of play.

    SPOILERS: Shaggy, still really struggling with form, was a bit better this week but still not where we need him to be

    GUNS: Cooney- very good in tight today and led the way with his attack on the ball
    Bazza- 5 goals, worked hard and presented well
    Lake- just makes playing in defense look so easy at times

    MONEY: Stack's knock on in front, ability to keep his feet and run onto the loose ball for goal

      Spoilers - the final term, really should've kicked on and got a big win.

      Guns - Hall - great presentation all day, and was clearly the dominant forward.
      Lake - another polished display in the back line, took some good grabs and got forward to kick a few goals.
      Cross - was very good in tight, and dropped back into the hole a few times to take a couple of good marks.

      Money - Got to agree with dogs4ever, Stack's tap on, gather and goal was great. Made it look very easy.
      Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

        Spoiler - last term effort: stick the fork in, Dogs! OK, for one player, Shaggy: still looks a bit behind the pace..

        Guns: Bazza! Back in form with a handful (and could've had more!)...
        Briza: Rock solid in the backline, would've enjoyed the Bradshaw-less game.
        Cooney: great in close, worked hard in Griff's absence

        Money: Stackalicious' knock on, run in and GOAL!

          Spoiler
          - Hargrave is struggling at the moment

          Guns -
          - Hall who turned it on against his old team
          - Lake who was almost impassable
          - Gilbee with his creative and quality use of the ball

          Money
          - Hard to go past that knock on by Stack

            Spoiler
            - Shaggy's form is becoming a concern, and another knee injury for Murph.

            Guns
            - Hall wanted to inflict some damage today - and did
            - Lake was back to his defensive best and is starting to add goals to his repertoire
            - Cooney stepped up with Griff out and led the midfield

            Money

            - Lake's stop, prop and goal was nice - try and outdo that Scarlett

                Spoilers = Our kicking in the last quarter! 7 behinds is not good enough.
                Guns =
                - Hall with his goals against his old site and was willing to maintain pressure through 4 quarters.
                - Cooney with a solid performance
                - Lake was unbeatable at the back and excellent going forward
                Money = All the young kids playing well (Stack, Grant)

                  Spoilers:

                  - Poor converting in the last qtr.... I was kicking them from everywhere post game proving it wasn't that hard.

                  Guns:

                  - Lake - awesome performance, if he stopped kicking off one step he would be the complete package.

                  - Cooney - great to see him running around in this type of form. I say we re-sign him every week if he is going to play like this after signing on the dotted line.

                  - Hall - good to see him have space to work in.

                  Money:

                  - Gia's gut running lead which resulted in our 6th goal (Hall's 2nd). Gia would have ran 70m to create an option which was honoured by Grant.
