One might say, a tad premature, a bloody practice game at best. !

| Why? The OP is right. Nothing has changed. If that is a glimpse of our game plan then we will struggle. It is just bomb and hope, bomb to a contest, bomb to a 2 on 1. We scored 1 goal after half time FFS! And as usual, lots of behinds. |

Means about as much as winning an intra club match.

I follow your logic. |

But we smashed Hawthorn in the first game, doesn't that mean we'll be Premiers? I'm confused.

Hate to say but Cloke didn't play against the Hawks. The fwd line was open and we weren't cloke conscious at all. As soon as he plays we just bomb it in, even when they have 2nd loose defenders back to go up 2 on 1. |

Bomb it to Cloke who always has 2 or 3
players on him!
It is a winner every year!
He should qualify for a major in the
air force. He certainly knows what a bomb looks like!

No such thing as a major in the air force. Try squadron leader.

Well there is in the US air force!
But then again lets not worry about such trivial nit picking.

I don't see it as trivial, Thomsoc. I see every day a little bit bloody more of wonderful Australia being taken away by bloody Yankland. We can't win such an unequal fight, the bastards will destroy this place by turning it into the western suburbs of Texas eventually, but I'm damned if I will ever surrender. I'll keep speaking Australian English for as long as I live, and I'll never, ever stop resisting every "lootenant" and every "I am pissed" unless it means drunk, and every attempt to turn Aussie Rules into Gridiron or basketball (or Soccer!) and every other illiterate Americanism. I never, ever high five anyone. If I want to say "well done mate" I'll look you in the eye and shake you by the hand like an Australian. And I'll bloody mean it.
All that said, and on the other hand, the poor bugger who gets the best view of the bombs coming down isn't in the air force anyway, it's Private Snodkins of the army who gets the bombs landed on his head!
And with that said, if Cloke would try leading for a pass instead of wrestling in the goal square all day, someone would get amongst the goals. Maybe him, maybe one of the smalls, doesn't matter, just so long as there is some movement and unpredictability in our forward line. Or perhaps we could put Elliott at CHF and Gault at FF to take the speccies and play Cloke as a small - he seems pretty good at crumbing to Gault!

| On the other hand, Brett Favre could throw it 60 yards onto Clokey's chest, every single time. Just sayin'. |

Well said! I like your passion, also well written.
