    And I think that looks like a brother in the shot too. Probably the whole family are there.

      Watching it again, brings a tear to my eye.

        Is Dan Lonergan actually THE Danny from Droop Street?? Seriously, he wrote 6-7 weeks ago that he felt Sht Kilda's rebuild was going better than ours! If he couldn't spot that the Aints were experiencing a new coach "cat bounce" then he shouldn't be commentating on the game!

        Had we lost by a kick today, the take away would surely be that Cloke was the difference between the two sides. We don't have a monster target and therefore have to work bloody hard for our goals. I tend to count our inside 50's versus the opposition in the knowledge that, when we get our list balance and on-field structure right, we'll be a force. The Aints are staring at Hayes and Riewolt retiring well before their next window opens.

        As one or two ex girlfriends would testify on my behalf, I'd sooner be a Dog than a Saint!!

              My observation is that he looks better playing in the forward pocket than when he plays in the midfield or in the backline.
              Yes agreed. This area is his place for the future once the younger, cleaner-possession kids come on.

                It gets pretty willing deep in the forward line, there is no room - it's all hot potato, probably suits his style. He can do the defensive stuff, he can take a mark overhead and he can sniff a goal. With Dahl in midfield, Gia retiring and Stringer probably earning his keep further up field, Kobe might be serious competition for a FP role for Dickson and Hunter.

                  IMO our best win since the first semi in 2006. IIRC we haven't had such a win against the odds since then.

                  Hard to fault any of our players and all the youngsters were good. Pleased to say Jones was very good.
                  The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

                    I'll have to watch the replay but it looked like in each of his goals there was an opportune moment to give off the panicked, hospital bandpass that has stifled his output for us and finally he managed to make the right decision. Some good goals on the back of good bustling in close and being prepared to hang onto the ball.

                      Agree entirely. He is a pretty good kick for goal too. His intensity suits the forward line and the occassional "hot potato" handpass may not be as glaring as in the middle of the ground.

                      Our day will come
                      And we'll have everything.
                      We'll share the joy
                      Just like '54 again.

                        Honorable mentions to Jones (best game for the club)

                        Safe to say as a club, as supporters, we needed that.
                        At last - a tall forward. So happy for the kid.

                          A great day in the history of this team. Grant was brilliant with his tap ons and processing of the ball, Bonte the octopus, just everyone seemed to contribute. Loved everyones desperation and composure. Loved the move the ball on at all costs style, we were great at it, like we found our true style.

                                Why are you paying that much attention to the photo?
