    Re: 2014 Game Day Round 12 - Western Bulldogs V Brisbane Lions

    One thing I did notice, when the whips were cracking late in the last Bonts, Libba and Wallis were the starting mids. Still teaching on a sinking ship?

        No problems with Wallis and Libba starting. Who would you replace them with?

        I was at the game so hard to quantify this comment but Griffen appeared to spend more time starting at CHF and CHB than in the middle. Looks to have hurt his back again.
        More of an In Bruges guy?

            Who recruited Howard?
            I will not go to another game that he is selected in.
            He is a disgrace and does not deserve to wear the jumper no matter how much of a great bloke he is.
            Seriously had enough of this shite.

                Not saying id replace them with anyone, just found it interesting that when we need a centre clearance late in the last we went quite young and not with the griff, cooney etc.

                        Exactly right. Sadly I wouldn't be surprised to see almost the same team again next week, the playing football part of football doesn't seem to be high on our list of priorities.

                            If not his back, I would say adductor - he can only move one way and doesn't load up on his left. He's certainly playing under duress.
                            Any tagger who studies his game this year will nullify him (ie Crowley last week).

                                Missed the game but how did Minson go? Brisbane's ruck stocks have been decimated.

                                    Stefanson beat him around the ground, and got 32 hit outs. That said, I thought Minno's 1st half was pretty good. And he missed a clutch goal late, but so did several others.

                                        I think he will keep improving. He has shown so much in his short time at the club.

                                            He had 8 kicks for the match and all 8 were clangers, that's just the start. Triple M gave him the 3 votes for worst on ground.

                                                How dare you Craig. Howard is great bloke, therefore he should wear the jumper. Champion bloke, real pie. Cracks in etc etc etc etc mumble mumble.
