    Spoilers, Guns and Money - R9

    Give us your thoughts

    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.

    Spoiler - Hard one in a side that wins by 70 but i will go with a ten minute period in the last quater. We really need to put sides away and dont. we let north kick 3 goals and didnt look intrested.

    Guns - Cooney, Lake and Grant. Cooney was awesome all day. Lake was very very good and Grant is really coming on in leaps and bounds, should hopefully be right up there for a Rising star this week

    Money - Griffens Left foot snap in the first, no time no space, one step goal.

      Spoiler: Eagleton. Disposal was awful at times and has lost a lot of pace over the last couple of years. Running out of chances.

      Guns: Cooney. Absolutely outstanding. 12 Touches 20 minutes into the first quarter and never looked back. Best game I've seen him play live.
      Williams: By no means best on ground but contested/defended extremely well and decision making impressed me. Firmly cementing himself in the side.
      Boyd: Mr Everywhere. Tackled/pressured all day, great composure all day and used the ball beautifully.

      Money: Jarrad Grant's hanger. I think he used today to remind a few people why he went at pick 5. Had a very good day IMO

        Spoilers - The monkey whistleblowers.

        Guns - Cooney: Explosive, exciting, enjoyable.
        Lake: A lot of 'nothing' possies, but still rock-solid
        Hall: for slotting a few, giving off a few, and for NOT belting the intestines out of Thompson.

        Money: Griff's left footer in the first quarter.

                Unless we stick to the script of what a spoiler is in this thread each week it's just too easy to point the finger at the umpires.

                  In this instance, it's justified.
                  Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                      I'm sticking by my post, but I'll amend...Shaggy wasn't as bad as previous games, but still doesn't seem right to me.

                          Spoilers - Eagleton..shouldn't be in the side ahead of kids if he's not playing decent footy.

                            Spoiler - Betfair odds.

                            Someone must have had a massive plunge on North at half time because they were only paying $3 at 3 qtr time, despite being down by 75 points.

                              That was strange.
