Re: Lin Jong on TAC SHOW NOW
Lin Jong is such a great story, East Timorese dad who he said liked Aussie rules before Lin got into it and Taiwanese mum who 'tags along' with it now. He got into Aussie rules only three years ago as a ruckman initially and picked up the tapping but not the kicking and the rest of it. Was lucky to be picked up by the Oakleigh Chargers and seems to have responded well to some good influences. He spoke charismatically with a modest manner but a glint in the eye. He seems inwardly very confident, as balanced as his kicking action and running. He received a letter of congratulations from the Prime Minister of East Timor when he debuted.

Re: Lin Jong on TAC SHOW NOW
I've never seen the replay, until now, and it's making me sick... But I'm going to do it because I blame Mark West for it (no one else seems to) so I want to see if what I remember from sitting in the GSS is accurate.
I've already sworn once, at Romero for spoiling Cook. 22 points now at 3/4 time.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: Lin Jong on TAC SHOW NOW
I forgot Romero hit the post. Arghhhhh.
Ellis, no, what were you thinking.

That was a goal to Libba.

Re: Lin Jong on TAC SHOW NOW
No goal for us since 19 minute mark of the third.
If the result was different, the boys holding Libba up would have been an iconic moment in our history. Unfortunately, it was Bubba punching the ground.
I take some on my annoyance Mark West, but he should've kicked the one with 3 minutes to go. Hudson should've made space for Grant.

Re: Lin Jong on TAC SHOW NOW
There's no need, trust me.
As for the things of note, Jarman had 3 kicks to 3/4 time, so maybe Wallace was right not to change.
Libba kicked a goal, it just wasn't paid.
West, Mark, should've kicked the goal from 40 straight in front. My memory was Cook had given a great lead which West ignored, but I didn't see it on the replay.
Hudson should've guarded the space. It would have only saved 0.3 seconds, but I would back Turtle to kick it with a better angle and the spoilers a step behind.
My take from the replay is he had a lot of top liners but also a lot of good ordinary players in 1997. I think the talent in 2008-10 was much higher, maybe they were worse losses??Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: Lin Jong on TAC SHOW NOW
The club better promote him - it'll look terrible if they don't. He has probably done enough to get on the senior list.Officially on the Bus-wagonComment
