Trengove smashing Phillips in the ruck, Phillips is years away!

We are in real trouble for the next 2 or 3 years!

Didn't have a pre-season as he was on the LTI list.

Comes in because we didn't have anyone else available when Kreuzer couldn't come up.
Comes up against an athletic beast in Ryder who has come back off a weeks rest.

Not sure what you were expecting from him, but we were asking a lot of him given the above.

18 seconds apart ;D

We are actually two goals a game up on our first four games of last year after 4 rounds.
So we have improved our goal average a bit.

That really bad weather day against Essendon probably knocked us back another 3 or  4 goals.

Currently we're a tick over 10 a game.
The interesting part will be whether we pick up that average per game as the season progresses.
If we finish up  averaging around 12-13 per game we'll have improved significantly on 2016.

You didn't touch any wood did you.  :-[

I'm fairly happy with our defense and midfield.. ( I say fairly )

What about our forward line.... ?   Can we kick a winning score... ? Where are our Goals coming from.. ?

I'm not happy with our forward line... our Goal Scoring power is not there and I can't see 10 - 12 goals getting it done .... :(

Been saying that since the day the rookie draft finished.

This might have been mentioned before but last night (maybe it was the haircut) I couldn't help thinking that Charlie Curnow bore a strong resemblance to the young Kouta - maybe it was wishful thinking after watching Kouta highlights on Open Mike and before the game..

You obviously haven't been spending a whole lot of time on the boards of late.

I dubbed Charlie C 'Curnofides' last year based on similar observations, mannerisms and glimpses of ability out on the footy field.
