Plowmans best game for us.
I am not as harsh in his game as others have been but he was fantastic back there today.
Stay in the long sleeves.

But although he didn't get many possessions I was cautiously pleased with what I saw from Cuningham. His defensive game was first rate. Pretty sure N. Jones checked his shorts from time to time as it must have felt like Cuningham was in them with him. Then later in the game the kid got a bit of confidence and showed us some of his quick thinking and other skills. Early days, but there was a, dare I say it... definite green sprout!

I'm happy for him TBH. I hope he keeps it up.
Like...thumbs up!

Just saw Q2 highlights. Docherty layed 2 of the best tackles deep in defense. First on the giant Gawn, then runs down and buries hardnut Jones.
Sensational, just sensational. Our future looks bright with the likes of this young man leading.
Loved Crippa's tackle on Gawn too. We ended up with more than 80 tackles, and by Scott, some of them were bone crunchers. Last year I was dreaming for this sort of effort and intensity. Well done Blues.
Agree with others Liam Jones played his role well today. His effort is unquestionable, as is his ability to dust off after being defeated and face up again (unlike sooky Hogan - he needs an attitude adjustment big time). From what I saw on TV, he looks to have read the play much better than earlier in the year.

if, for the sake of the argument, we play Weeters, Doc and Simpson as our half back line, then at the moment, this would have to be the best (or close to the best) half back line in the game IMO.

Weiters should win the Rising Star award but probably wont because he plays for Carlton. Either Parish (the feel sorry factor) or Caleb Daniel (everyone loves the Doggies factor) will win it.

I had a good look at Hogan's set shot routine today and he makes Casboult's set shot routine look smooth and polished. Hogan has no rhythm and his ball drop is high and awkward.
