Higgins seem to have a few opponents but none were able to subdue him IMO and we suffered everytime he got the footy.....
Agree EB - this is the 4th week in a row we have been cut up by the opposition's small forward - Robbie Gray against Port, Billings against the Saints, Wolters against the Dockers and now Higgins. Not sure who would be our best option to mark these types, but it's an element of our gameplan that we definitely need to put some work into.
@ Brettie - I usually agree with your posts, but I'm sure I speak for all the females on this site when I say that your comment below is an insult to vaginas, which are actually pretty useful, effective and extremely tough (try pushing a baby through Warnock)!
"Warnock....as I said at the game, he's a 206cm vagina. What a poor excuse for a footballer, let alone a ruckman he is. Soft, ineffectual, basically he's a nuisance and nothing more.''
After the Richmond game, we were walking to the tram stop and right next to us was Casboult and his girlfriend leaving the ground with the rest of us plebs. We said g'day and I said to him "I bet you would have sunk those sitters if you were on the ground"! He gave a wry grin and said "I'd like to think so". Couldn't believe he was just out there with the crowd - not in a suit sitting with the rest of the non-playing team members.
