Round 24: the Datsun Stanza games.

Shockers at it again. Plenty of talent there but discipline out the window. Coach well he was a Buckley protege so that sums it up. Reckon Ross the Boss as St Hilda's will have a " I told you so but ya would not listen ". Hope Shai looked at game & sum up 'do I want to be coached by him".
 
What a goal by the Higlet. Shame it didn't end Carlton but it's always good when they lose.

I like Frederick and Switkowski but they both missed chances they should have taken and are levels below Shai. Think Frederick kicked 1.

Nah, disagree. Without him, they finish 10th. If they had him they're top 4.
I can just see them wasting their opportunity. Longmuir looking more and more unlikely the man.

He clearly makes them better but they seem to lack a killer instinct. Tracey might be the leader/spark they require. I am pretty sure It ain't Shai. He's mostly talent, little else as far as team goes. There is no aura around Shai.

Dusty was massive talent/massive team. He led. Shai doesn't. Doubt he ever will.

Shai gets a bum rap. Excellent finals performer.

If Freo had Shai today they win.
I think they are mad not to chase him hard. Add Shai, Darcy, Pearce and Tracey to todays side and they are almost flag favourites.

They need his talent.

I like the look of the Hawks small forwards. All of them are arrogant wankers but can play.
Well, not so sure about that. Depends on how you define 'play'? I know they can drop and duck, stage and get frees from the Dummies in lime.
