When we signed him I watched several GWS replays from last year. He can play and has heaps of improvement in front of him yet.
Bam Bam will be a big plus for us.
I hope you're right S. So far he's been more "Sister Nancy".

CheatsFC will probably try and use some sacrificial spud to take him out Carrazzo style!

On balance, its one of the best sides we've had this year IMO.
Not sure if i would've dropped both Phillips and Casboult at the same time. If Kreuzer (not 100%) gets (re)injured....what then?
McKay/Curnowfides from the forward line disrupts that.
Jones/Rowe from the backline, disrupts that.
Personally i'd throw Oshea in as the sacrificial lamb and see if we can find a use for him, at present i cannot.
In any event, we've gone for a smaller side, which will suit the conditions on saturday.
If Kreuzer stays fit, this is a very winnable game. Bombers are not going well and i like the setup of this side. Only maybe the 2nd time all year i've been relatively happy pre-game with team balance.

re: OShea, watched him for Port play on the wing and he was BOG that day, his disposal wasnt such an issue like it is when he plays down back. He can get a lot of the ball and that day Port directed
a lot of ball through him. Its his disposal that got him the boot from Port and he doesnt seem to have fixed it at senior level, not sure he will be anything other than backup, I have heard he is very popular with the playing group and a coach favourite as he trains hard and follows instructions well......

Yep
Just feels like they may have targeted it as winnable and have selected with the intention of going all-out for that win.

Getting a bit sick of Bolts and the other coaches & even players reminding us that they are “learning their craft”, drives me nuts. I see Bolts has said that Bam Bam is “learning his craft” in the twos this week..... >

I hope you're right Lods. The Bummers on the other hand would take great delight in denying us, especially us.

I think we're a good chance...but once again I'll be happy with effort.
A bad loss to this mob is just unacceptable. >
