He reminded me of buck red kangaroo.

The old saying was " Mugs to the backline"......

My late father  was a Carlton man, he would use that expression, mainly on forwards who couldnt kick straight.
Reckoned they were mugs who belonged down back....he loved Harry" Soapy" Vallence and Fev.

Papley looked threatening but Plowman’s positioning meant that Papley wasn’t able to use his pace.  More importantly, Plowman backed himself, took some good marks and provided run out of defence.

His disposal was spot on at important moments too.

Yep agree. I liked his game and he seemed to back his first instinct and looked confident whether spoiling, defending or when moving the ball. 

Think it was the 3rd quarter when he took a nice mark going 3 up and that is something only confident defenders do.

Is a much better player than many give credit for.

Ive heard that saying EB, I was being cheeky suggesting its still applicable now. I should have added a laughing Emoji.

GTC, I did get the humour suggesting it's a mugs fest today ;D

I just got an email from Crippa and Doc.  Among other things, they wrote;

“We’ve been in every game, we now expect to win every game and know our best is good enough to mix it with anyone in the competition.”

I think they are right, provided we don’t give opposition teams a start, sort out our kicks inside 50 and improve our goal kicking accuracy.

It was a good win but it would have been a travesty if we had lost.  It goes a little way towards making up for the last two losses.

Plowman was outstanding but it was our defensive pressure all over the ground that enabled him to play as he did.  Good signs indeed 

Got the same email. The bold was my favourite line.

Was Plowman good or Papley terrible? Been following Papley's games and form (he was in my Fantasy Footy Team) and he has been putrid the last 5 or so weeks.

Probably a bit of both... maybe Papley has already 'checked out.'
