Jones got in curtesy of playing closer to goal than Jaksch and kicking slightly more goals. Bizarre situation where Cas gets injured and our next best tall fwd isn't even an emergency. BB hates him.
Hate is a strong word jeza. I dont think BB "hates" anyone, but he is strong and uncompromising in his demands of the players. Read the article in the HS on him.

I have not personally seen him play this year but there have been plenty of reports to indicate that KJ has yet to reach the standards required of him for senior selection.
Unless he has been hampered by illness and injury, I now hold grave fears for KJ's ability to make it. He should be well and truly "firing a shot" by now. Something is not right.

Thanks GTC.

I think given our outs, the club has done pretty good damage limitation work. On paper, that group doesn't look too bad. Realistically, I don't see how the club could've done much better.
Agree. Dont know how good or bad Gorringe has been in the 2's but I guess its irrelevant now. I am sure BB has told him:
- Take hold of your opportunity
- Rip into every ruck contest as hard as you can and absolutely give it to Goldy. Especially the first one, needs to hurt him (legally) if possible.
He cant match him for talent, he can match him for effort and physicality.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Our tackle count
Tackling is like chasing ladies/men at a pub/club/bar. If you ask enough, you'll miss a few but you'll eventually cut one from the herd.

I'm with Shades, I think we can win. Why? Just because of what I have seen thus far from our boys. "Its the vibe". One of the two streaks will come to an end this week, I reckon our fellas are keen to maintain ours and will leave nothing on the ground trying. And if we do win? To quote the Bristle:
"Boy-o-boy".
