Pro:

Great team match. The trust and reliance on teammates was sublime out there.

Won big with Judd playing a lesser role

Con:

My tipping margin is stuffed.

Judd did not play a lesser role - he was as brilliant as always - he just had 21 mates doing the same

Fair point.

Lesser role in a relative sense. That better?

We needed a big win and we finally got it.
The injuries made it a certainty but we won it in the first.
I really want to beat Essendon* now. Really bad.

Con - Thornton should never be dropped if the alternative is Bower forward.. T bird is a better option as a swing man than Bower.

Other than that we get Walks back and its ours to lose.

Pros there are to many to mention

Cons we could have won by more we missed at least 5 to 6 easy getable goals it could have been a 90 point thumping

But hell who cares

Pros: What an absolute brilliant team effort, which proves when the boys click
we are going to be unstoppable.

Cons: More like a question. Watchin the game on TV, if i was to pick one player who struggled
for us, it would have to be Bower, he looked a little out of his depth.

They were saying on TV, that Ratten has stated that one position players are a thing of the past,
so with that is Bower able to play other positions ?

Is Thornton a more versatile than Bower ?

Pros - pretty much everything. The midfield dominance was eye-opening, I think everyone was shocked at how one-sided it was.

Zac's Robbo-like attack on the ball. Scotland magnificent all night, loved his smother at half-back that ended up in Garlett's goal about 4 possession's later. Murphy's work rate - after a bad Swan turnover was the first to tackle Toovey, a few seconds later was running into an open goal. Hammer growing in confidence every week.

Cons - Jamo's shoulder, doesn't appear to be the strongest of joints. Was about the only heart in mouth moment all night.

Pendlebury wetting his pants when he knew he was under pressure.
Eddie's speed!!!!
Jeffy's speed!
Juddy's speed!
So many other pros
Cons
Those misses for goal from so close in. Robbo needs to nail those.
What's with all the vision of the Filth at the end of the game - we won the bloody game!

Pro:

Hammer took a genuine pack mark in defensive 50. That was the positive sign that has me now believing he will turn raw talent into a genuine star.

Pros:
- The rebounding out of defence resembled my boxer shorts...exceptional ball movement.
- There was almost always an option by hand or by foot.
- Kreuzers' and Juddy's first quarter was incredible. If Kreuze isn't one of the best tap ruckman - wow...
- Stoppages. Paul Williams will pick up a senior coaching role if this is what he brings to the table. Hawthorn the challenge in this area now.
- Nostalgia. That took me back to another decade. Reminded me what it was like when I was a kid.
- .....there are so many more...

Cons
- nah....can't do it this week...
