A lot of folk were laying into him on twitter after that tweet. One even showed you tube footage of him laying a bad tackle on Murph. Think he apologised later, probably all the crap he copped had something to do with it
Usually go to games with friends, they have slowly dropped off over the course of the season, to the point where I went solo on the weekend foe the first time in a while. Refused to not go whilst we were losing.
I am glad that I stuck with it cos it was a great game on Saturday. Only 20 odd K people at the game but atmosphere was amazing. Fans have their swagger back, and are enjoying what this team is putting out. Could not sit down in the last quarter cos I was so on edge, SO I stood in front of the Corporate boxes on Lever P. Was pacing up and down I was that nervous, all the time listening to radio counting down the clock. People in corporate box must have thought I was mad.
The emotion after the siren went was amazing. One of those rare moments in footy.
Bingo! All focus should be on the next game... plus Byrne, Gibbs (as you mentioned), Jamison, Thomas and Yarran should all be in contention for the Port game.
(and hopefully over the coming months we'll get a squiz at, at senior level, Fields, Russell, Holman and Walsh)
I can see club elevating Walsh from the Rookie list to replace Juddy. Has been very solid for the NB all year.
To take up from the in game thread, Hendo had an ordinary night. However, when you consider how we get the ball forward, we really don't give him a lot of opportunity. To be honest, I'd play him in defence for a while to get some form. It has worked well for him in the past. Unfortunately it leaves a forward line looking vacant. Levi isn't doing a lot and Jones is a waste of space.
I think we should drop Jones and play Jaksch up forward. Cant do ant worse than Jones who is a witches hat out there
