Round 4-The other games

[GoodOne]

Sure are. They're also missing Watson, Salmon, Van Der Haar, Baker...

and Sheedy

 

[mb64]

Hird firming as the next Bomber coach?

Missing Lovett's run & carry & the focal points of Lloyd, Lucas this season no doubt.

Would think so

 

[GoodOne]

That Spanger is a bit of a Spanger in that backline. Very slow when he get the ball, poor skills. We should recruit him.

 

[zippadeee]

I watched last weeks game, North against west coast and i thought west coast were worse then us, but tonites game the bumbers are an exact replica of us.. knighter looks like he might be burnt by these useless bunch of footballers

 

[IanG]

Yeah. Sometimes I think the hype is going too far but watching some of the stuff he does and the dominance over a game he can have already for a 2nd year ruckman is amazing.

I can't remember another player, especially this young, where almost every one of his possessions makes something happen. Gary Ablett snr maybe, maybe others like Carmen I guess, who I'm just old enough to remember. Even Franklin doesn't have what Nicnat has.

 

[mb64]

When do we play the Bombers?

 

[marsinvenus]

When do we play the Bombers?

Was just thinking that, could have a team we could beat here.

 

[Barnzy]

Absolutely shocking game tonight, shocking. Worse than anything we have dished up. Turnover galore. If we can get Foley back up and running on top of Deledio, Cotchin, Martin we're seriously a good chance to win a few games. Some terrible teams around.

 

[Leysy Days]

Good luck to this kid, I was a wrap for him last year. Shattered we didn't grab him in the rookie.

Gee Trav Collyer looks the goods. Will be a player, same with Melksham.

Pressure will be huge on Knights if they get rolled here.

Yes Melksham will be, not sure of Colyer to be honest Scoop.

Very small & light, not clean on tonights performance. Maybe still adjusting to the pace though.

 

[Elmer]

On the radio they're carry on like he's Jesus reborn. Lot of hype around that's for sure.

Gotta be some chance

 

[IrockZ]

Jo Beth Watson is one hell of a overated player.

34 Touches, 7 Clearances, Most Supercoach points in the game.

Did you watch a different game?

 

[johnson2richo2003]

Picked West Coast by 23pts. :thumbsup

No - watched the whole game. Effective rating of 53% if the want to get into stats. It's not how much you get the ball it's what you do with it when you get the thing. I think we all know about that being tiger supporters...

Watson - 64% disposal efficiency, 20 contested possessions, 8 clearances, 6 1%ers, only 1 error. He's certainly doesnt have the silkiest disposal but stood out in the Essendon team last night. Most don't class Watson as an elite player, so dont really think he's over-rated.

 

[GoodOne]

Whats the go with Mark Williams. He was an unbelievable player at Hawthorn at one stage.

 

[Tigers of Old]

Wouldn't go so far as unbelievable but a fine third forward. He was certainly a good foil for Buddy & Roughy.
The Hawks miss him but he misses those class talls at the Dons a heck of a lot more.

Spot on.

That he's considered their best is indicative of their current plight.

Without wanting to pick on poor old Newy too much, I'd rather have Jobe as club capitan than a okish HBF
