Round 22 - the dead goldfish games.

Losing Tom McDonald has hurt the Sheemons set up as they now have no lead up key target who would open the forward line behind him and offer the second get out kick option with the Ruck.

Ben Brown is also not as effective as a stand alone Key Forward, hence the importance placed on Fritsch (the campaigner) and Fatty Petracca to hit the scoreboard.

Gawn playing Key Forward is not ideal considering he is the best ruck in the comp. I understand he is resting rotating with Jackson, but the Demons looked much better with McDonald and Jackson hitting up to the footy last season its one of the facets of their set up that made them dominate.

Added to the fact that Maxy can't kick for *smile*!

When is the media blow torch going to turn back to GCS? Another failure of a season despite having a seemingly endless supply of first round picks handed to them over the years. How much longer do the AFL persist?
Reckon Ellis will win their B&F at least.
 
2 goals in 25 minutes.

How about that Steve Hocking, eh?

Look at all those Dustin Martin moments.

Does anyone know the actual rule when a player has a fresh air kick trying to kick the ball? I see around half paid as frees.
