It's that "we together" mentality that generates sacrifice, and creates those blocks and shepherds that the likes of the Nthmond running brigade hand out for Dusty or Reiwoldt. Those things we see off the ball that we hate seeing go unpenalized, mostly because we do not do it too! Burn team mates? I don't think the pass came off. He burned his team by not taking the shot.
If i'm his teammate and i see him with the ball 40-odd out, i WANT him to have a shot. Thats his role.

Yep. Let's not start jumping at shadows yet.

I know it was just a pricey match hit out against an opposition team and I have said in the past I never want to see Callum Moore in a Carlton jumper every again but...
I have to admit, he a did a few nice things and his pace for a big fella is impressive. In one ruck contest, he buttered up, gathered the ball below his knees at full tilt and burst out of the middle. He sprayed the kick a little but the idea was there.
Yea or nay?

Yea or nay? I saw that and was impressed.
However, can you remember anything else he did......because i can't.

I thought that he played quite well, in fact amazingly well for a bloke who I thought was nowhere near AFL standard.

Qtr 1 - He did a burst out the centre at around the 17 min mark after receiving a HB from Dow. He rucked the middle part of the qtr.
Qtr 2 - Didn't play, OMac provided relief for Pitto in the middle of the second.
Qtr 3 - Minute 17:55. buttered and burst out the middle spraying the kick (thats the one we remembered)
Qtr 4 - Didn't play, OMac provided relief for Pitto in the middle of the forth.
So I was right, he did "a couple" (literally) of nice things.

I can't. Oscar maybe. Helps down back too.

Dont fancy Moore vs Richmond rnd1...he wont touch it and his opponents like Nankervis in the ruck or Grimes, Astbury, Balta etc down back will tear us a new one.
Who did Essendon have in the ruck...kids?
McDonald probably makes more sense, any long term injury to Jones or JW and we would be done for the year without some cover IMO.
