Ok...might be Lobb and Darcy jr rucking, that would suit us.
Wasnt Naughton who was concussed? or both?
OK, maybe it was Naughton. I heard English from someone.

We should of put Charlie down back.

I called that during the game.

He was doing it at the start and middle of the year.....for some reason he isn't doing it now.

I think Lods said he might be injured, and for his sake, i hope he is because that was his worst game for the year....and his lack of efforts in chasing were at an all time high IMO.

I had a feeling last week and now this week that Charlie is playing with an injury that is affecting his athleticism. He's hasn't been getting any seperation from his opponent nor has he been able to get off the ground like he usually does.

I'm surprised he wasn't pushed down back during the second term. The player that we're missing most is Silvagni unfortunately.

We must've been yelling at the TV at the same time...haha.

It's hard to know for sure.
As well as the lack of chase, it seems to me he has trouble bending down. He does it in a pinch, but there's a real hesitancy in some of his movements that haven't been there in the past.

One highlight of the weekend is Collingwood is out of the eight and Richmond is last. Silver linings.

Fun fact.

The last 11 grand final winners come from 7 teams and only 1 of them is in the 8 right now. (Tigers, Pies, Cats, Dees, Dogs, Eagles and Hawks)

10 of our starting 22 were more than 30% down on their average rankings. The Giants only had 2.

That tells the story of what I witnessed. I kept thinking "we've got nothing" in terms of absorbing or controlling long periods of the game.

Does the Toby Greene “studs up” rule apply to all players or just Toby?

I'm tipping with all the stats you have that you are related to Bruce McAveney...lol.

Yes, it would have been a free if it was Toby, particularly with the extension of the leg after the mark was taken.

I think the rule was relaxed under Steve Hocking’s reign.

I just have a good memory for such things.

I see a pattern and I look into it.
Eg... tigers are last and they won 3 flags recently. Pies are outside the 8 and they won last year. Hawks won a few but are outside....etc.

Just like stats i pull from games. I use my eyes first and then check it against the stats. Eyes are always first though.
