Love the way he delays the handball until the right moment

That is one extra tall in the forward line than we have played all year. Could be worth a look but i reckon it will upset our balance again and we may see our forward pressure suffer and Walkers output decline.
We have scored a large chunk of our score this year by locking the ball in and then hitting the scoreboard with the repeat fifty caused by the press. We don't need so many tall forwards for that to work. In fact it probably works against it.

I like two nimble talls (walker, Waite/Henda) and a ruck/forward (Kreuzer) moving through there occasionally. Surround them with Garlett Betts and another resting onballer or defensive forwards.

I'd swap waite/henderson - waite is better at ground level and probably more value deep with henderson as the mobile CHF

I'd also leave Hampson & Kreuzer in the area where they do their best work: in midfield taking the ruck role and pushing forward. As good as Hampson's mark was, his midfield play and tap-in goal were much better.

Agree with Cazz. Laidler for either Bower or Thornton and that's our best 22.

I love the quickness and run that we have playing a smallish side. We have not played a true CHF all year.

However, I reckon come finals time we need to play the extra tall. We can always sub one of them off in the 2nd half.

Thinking about All the guys having their best year at the club

Murphy

Loved a nice stress free day at the footy
Loved hearing "KROOOOOOOOZE" again
Loved everyone going mental when Zac kicked that goal
Loved Robbo being applauded after copping a heavy one then trotting back down field like it was nothing
Loved Jeff cheekily running into goal while everyone was shoving each other around

10 goal win over a bottom side, we did what we had to do.

come on mozzy, loosen up, you can get a little excited!

and welcome back no. 8. No more Kreuze-free football!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RAPTED with the win. We still need to get better and converting our match dominance on the scoreboard though.

A wee bit disappointed to let them get 5 goals in the last qtr, but equally I was happy that we fought back and ran the game out quite well.

Our general team work and combination play has come on leaps and bounds this year alone.




Pfft, Gibbs won't let anyone get near Goodes. Not even his teammates.

Just thinking back to a young Michael Voss talking on television about how the lions had caused the demise of a carlton coach (was it Jezza?) and that they were hoping to do it again. Could karma be knocking on the door?

the curse of hamill has been lifted

darknavy is that lid coming off or going back on? It's hard to tell - perspective maybe?

Jamison 3, Murphy 2, Hampson 1.

Jamison did an exceptional job on Brown limited him to four kicks. Taking brown out of the contest took Brisbane out of it. Then started a lot of our run oot of the back.
Murphy is up there with Judd now. Judd still gets more hardballl slightly but Murphy's disposal is better then Judds I believe.
Hampson dominated the ruck too mark of the year contender.

Walker , Robinson and Judd not fgar behind. Thing is we are not really getting standout players it is an overall team effort. We have some depth. Have proven we can beat Geelong (despite the fact we didn't), Collingwood will be a test but we have improved quite a lot since they got us early on. Need to beat Sydney, WCE and Richmond in the next three however.

I am beginning to think it is possible in 2011. There is a bit of Hawthorn 2008 about us at the moment.

Awesome interview. Brilliant. Did he say anything good, because I watched it on mute.... (twice)

It was Parkin.

Well done for bringing this up....the karma train.

Voss barracked for Carlton as a kid.
Lions beat Carlton in 2001 and claimed it would cost Parkin his job.
Didn't want to take the Carlton coaching job (Pagan's at the time) on offer?
Wasn't interested in anything Carlton?
Got caught on camera king hitting a walker by in StKilda. True colurs on display.
He got great joy as his team came back from 5 goals down in the last to beat us by less than a kick in the Elimination.
Wanted Fevola at all costs to win a Flag.
Wanted to offload mate, and a broken footballer in Bradshaw in the swap for Fevola.

But what did Voss get from his snub and pertulance towards Carlton?
Lost Fevola, Lost his Team, Lost a lot of money they didn't have, Lost respect, Lost, Henerson, Lost Lucas, Lost games against Carlton....Lost Lost Lost.
Rhymes with Vosst Vosst Vosst.

Up yours Vossy. So glad you didn't come to my club and @#$%&! it up like you did up in Brisbane. Karma
