    I couldn't tell as my mates 2 yo daughter turned off the TV as he started lining up. She was a little startled by the noise that was made after she did that.

      Whitfield, on the other hand, is a poor man's Macrae.
      I think they are all excellent players, and all three clubs would be very happy with who they have got.

        Whitfield has more pace and is a better kick than Jack, but doesn't have the same work ethic or elite hands.

        I was right behind the kick, it started gun barrel straight and then hooked as it got close to the goal square.. Probably finished 1m inside the goal post.

A vital cog in our midfield and out and out gun.
          Great comparison. Lappin was one of the best two-way runners in the competition when it wasn't very fashionable to run the other way.

            I couldn't bare to look knowing he's not a great set shot. I didn't watch the ball but I did watch him to see what his reaction was. When he punched the air I went ballistic.

              I think I'd stopped breathing at that point. Macrae's reaction was just phenomenal - so much emotion in that one fist throw!

              Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath

                  Absolute best on ground and only reason we weren't further down at half time. Only positive in the first half. Mr Reliable

                        Even hit a target on his right boot. Obviously working on his weaknesses.

                          Never seen him run so quickly. Chase down tackles, breaking away from packs, kicked a goal and got free inside 50
                          If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
