The Giants? you cant be serious mate they are shite. Both those teams have had the picks of the litter for the last 3 or so years, most of our guys are from the rookie draft |

Well, you come up with a better explanation! |
Couldn't have been the RSPCA. If the RSPCA took responsibility for that many dogs in one go it would have resorted to euthanasia. |

Yes he isn't offer much in the way of goals (Same effectiveness as Dawes last year) but he is offering more disposals, more marks and more hitouts than Dawes did last year so we have gained something from this selection, an improvement on the player he replaced.
With Witts not ready we cant play a genuine 2nd ruckman because we would lose out too much around the ground, Lynch offers us a decent effort in the ruck and a marking option around the ground, maybe we are expecting too much for that player to also be kicking bags every week as well? |
Totally agree on this ES. I reckon Lynch is playing a role and certain parts of this role, Bucks would be very happy with, others clearly need work. _________________ Buon Giorno |

When was the last time Jack Spain was happy with a Collingwood win? Most of us now have realistic expectations of this bloody pretend Magpie fan and perpetual "perceptive fellow".... |

Was it just coincidence that the tide of the game changed when Reid was subbed out? I think not. |

A good win. Nothing special. More games into younger players.
I'm Happy.
We could have been better in a number of areas, and the second half, but you cant have everything. As others have said this is not the 2010/11 team. _________________ go pies |

Quite good, first half brilliant, then our bevy of kids tired out, and we died in the ass abit, but we won at their home ground, lots of experience out, by nearly six goals, so we take that and damn well run with it. Now a rest up, and we can all recharge our batteries for the business end of proceedings.! _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

* Umpires where Bad in 2nd Half
* Harry was Hot and Cold
* Did not really see much of Lynch
* Sinclair had no Impact again |
Not sure which game you were watching DTM but Sinclair wasn't too bad at all. When the heat was on early he had their little goer with the dreadlocks under wraps. Great speed & tackling. Not brilliant but definitely good.
Lynch for mine is better than Dawes in the ruck so that problem has been fixed however as we all know in the last 4 weeks or so Lynch has not been much chop as a power forward.
Hopefully if & when Goldy returns this may well have a positive impact on Lynch. _________________ “I even went as far as becoming a Southern Baptist until I realised they didn’t keep ‘em under long enough” Kinky Friedman |

MKII we thought. He played ok last night as he should have we played the dogs who have won how many games? As far as the season goes, he has been pretty average. I don't know what's happened to his kicking. He used to kick 50 metres easy. Now he can barely kick over a jam tin. I expect more from his past and his experience. As it stands he is serviceable but that's it. |
