No mention of Freo or Pavlich anywhere to be seen? Well Pavlich was mentioned but not like usual.

Thought it was right one the money except for one point. I am just not convinced that Waite is the right person to play on big key forwards.

He is one of the only true matchwinners we have and should be used in a role similar to Richo or Brennan, playing loose pushing forward and back. To me he could do some real damage that way.

With Thornton, Bower, Setanta, Austin & Jamo we have some big bodies that can develop into those positions.

I would just hate to see us curb his natural flair, I think we need it.

Liked his comment on Stevens and Scotland about hard ball gets...

In saying that, I would like to know how Craig Bradley would have gone in the hard ball gets statistics.

We should all be celebrating.

Whenever Wallsy gives a team a bake in the Age, don't they normally win?

He always used to bake every team that was about to play us and inevitably they'd win.

He's given some players a roasting and said our club as a whole have no excuses. We should win if the Wallsy Bake does its trick.

I think Wallsy summed it up well. Identified the boys who need to lift and here's hoping that we have a strong effort tonight.

Objective and constructive. Reading between the lines, he is identifying the need for improvement among some of our list leaders. I think Wallsy 's on the money

If I was picking our best backline, I'd have Walker, Thornton, Jamison, Hadley and Bannister in it. I think for a team with no depth, we've got a pretty high level of expectation on us.

It will be "tonight" somewhere in the world....

Wallsy could've gone a bit further...

great point. i think we have to at least give waite a chance to play on the wing. there's no doubt he's got every bit as much talent as richo and brennan, it's only a matter of how ahdr he works. if he works hard enough to run both forward and back i see no reason why he can't be played on a wing.

I have said it all year. Your are totally right . Good observation. It is a nice way of saying he is a Center Half Forward

Absolutely no comparison there mate.
Bradley's skills were far superior to either of them.
