Don't want to bring up the old chestnut but everytime TDK was rested in the ruck the bombers got back into it

Jake stringer walking off ground as if blown it. 3 marks, a handful of disposals, 1 goal. Reminds me of the starring role he played in the dogs flag

Yes keep Williams forward.

Brilliant kick to Hollands in the third.

No, but looked like he was ready to come on if needed. Corky. Not risked.

He came back on the boundary and didn't seem too hampered. I think they took a conservative approach.

Which means 6 weeks :grin:

I enjoyed the game, although we screwed around in the third. Overall I thought we were efficient & boring. Not in a bad way

We're finding all sorts of ways to win & tonight it was all about nothing spectacular, just good conversion & good input from the lesser lights.

Charlie just the 2 but thought he was really important

Newman seems to do a mandatory couple of dumb things each game but I still love him :grin:

Honourable mention to Hewett, solid consistent game. Love it when he sneaks forward for a cheeky goal!

i nearly posted during the game asking if, this time last year, anybody would have marked Gov and Setters down for the two players leading AF points at QTR time… but didn’t wanna jinx us.

… both went off injured.

Can’t describe in words how much I @#$%&! hate those cauliflower. Just wanted a win.

Huge for the season. Full circle from last year.

Much room for improvement too. For mine, our two biggest weaknesses are the small forwards (comes out of F50 way too easily) and D50 stoppages (concede way too many goals and shots at goal).

Rapted to be second going in to the bye noting our draw and injuries.

Sets us up for a legitimate assault on top 4 and the flag. Been a long time since I could type that :smoking:

I didn't think that was a problem tonight. We only had 40 inside 50s and scored 21 times, so the ball hardly ever exited at all :D. I do agree we let them exit from kick ins too easily. The way we stood way behind the mark makes me think that was a tactical decision to force turnovers further up the ground. I thought we locked it in quite well otherwise.

Best game fron TDK tonight ,by a long way ,..Cincotta shut down merrit ,and Saad really strong performance ..If Williams wants to stay up forward he gets my vote,and I hate to admit it ,Kemp did some good things tonight ,although he frustrates me with some brainfades sometimes .Nice to be up toward the top again at NO. 2 ,lets get the injuries sorted over the bye ,and be spoilt for choice and depth

Ben McKay should have stayed at North ..... at least he would have had a win this week.

I shouldn't have expected people to understand anything related to probability.
