He was interesting. Rucked. Played forward.
No shrinking Violet? That's his 1 wood. Shrank at premium wage for most of the night. And climaxed when he ran away from a ground ball contest with Brodie "*smile* Slayer" Grundy. Just ran away. Some time in the third.
Is it seven years now? It feels like 20. Watching Ben Miller avoid the football.
"He keeps going where the ball aint." Slowly.
Shrinking Violet ran away from mild physical contact with Brodie Grundy in the third? That's great news - the *smile* has never run before.
I can guess what Dimma said in the box. Something about "Blub, dribble, vomit, Minse." "*smile* Minse, *smile* you!". But I'm just projecting.
What I said in the stands was "You *smile* dog, Minse! *smile* you! Get him off! *smile* him! Run, *smile* Minse, you *smile* bludging dog! You big *smile* head! *smile* get him off! Get him off! The *smile* *smile* *smile*!" Those around me said "But he's a match winner, Diarrhoea, why would you drag him?" And then I went fully into orbit and set fire to the stand. (It's extant so somebody *smile* that up.) And they said "Diarrhoea, Diarrhoea, we can't *smile* think."
So I calmed down. But while all that was going on Ben Minson was dragged and put on the phone. And I guessed that Dimma said something. Something like "*smile* you, you big *smile* head! *smile* run, Minse!"
And then there was a miracle. For (seven?) years we've been posting on this thread that *smile* is about to get real for Ben Minson. But he's never understood the notion of urgency. Once he had a hungry mouth the feed he was better able to feign it. But he still wouldn't run.
In the final three minutes of the third quarter Ben Minson "blitzed in" for the first time in his life. And he was good at it. He went back to sleep when posted forward after the the 3/4 time break but Minson finally ran in minutes an instant prior.
In doing so he proved his critics right. And his fans. His critics think he's a bludger. His fans think he has more to offer. They are the same people.
