Re` Hartlett,with the suspension of Austin and withdrawal of Setanta there was no other option and i thought he did well considering he was not playing in his best position.
Agree with bringing Browne back.

Yeah, it was more just whilst watching he was one of the guys that when he had the ball wasn't able to do much. I'd love to see him thrown forward for Fisher.

Fev's goal is in the middle, or thereabouts.

Not for the first time, I think Houlihan is drawing some unfair comments. He was far from our worst player yesterday, IMO.

His lack of burst is a major concern. The game is getting quicker than ever and i think his lack of pace makes him a liability. Several times yesterday he was caught simply cause he just did not have the quick burst to get out of the traffic

Did anyone else notice a behind being taken off our score yesterday? It happended early in the 2nd quarter when the score was 4.5 29, a few minutes later it went to 4.4 28. I watched the replay last night and the commentator on channel 10 said at this time there was a discrepency in the scoreboard.
After watching the replay i didnt think Houlihan played too bad at all.

I noticed it too Kezza, I think the umpire awarded a Richmond free kick and reversed the point.

At this stage of the season I will take 4 points. When you think about the conditions, the wind was just swirling around. Sitting in Bay 50 you could hear the wind.

The boys had a big 4th quarter last week and probably didn't return from Perth until early hours of Monday morning, so it was only a 5 day turnaround.

Betts quiet you cant be serious. Obviously ones that are saying this were not at the game. He chased, harassed, set up goals.

No one can accuse him of not working hard.
