If he was in his 20s he wouldn't even be a discussion point.

I appreciate that he is approaching the end, but I still feel very positive when he has the ball.

Stop equating that he is holding up and coming players back. There will always be room to bring in those that deserve it.

While we are playing for a higher ladder position there must be a balance between youth and experience.

Dow was in his teens and he was being derided for his poor disposal...
Murphy is on the fringe of the best 22. If he kicks or handballs it to a contest it's an effective possession. If he duffs the kick or handball to it goes within reach of our player, even if it's behind him or a bump ball, it's an effective possession.
You are right. He is in our best 22 based on the last couple of weeks on possessions gathered but he had a run of shockers a few weeks back that had to be called out. Same with Eddie. We all love Eddie but he is in the team based on his pressure acts alone. Not good enough.
Ratts dropped Polec after he was BOG two weeks earlier. Caddy got dropped for giving away a 50 metre penalty. There's your difference right there. Ruthless v feel good.

Lockdown has done weird things to people. Even Dwayne Russell was full of praise for our game today.

Cottrell's goal had a bit of Fraser Brown about it. Superb kick.

Can anyone work out what Newnes says after the goal?

Taberner surprises me, but obviously polled from both coaches

No problem with Ryan. Great game.
Fyfe played a great 1st quarter and a reasonable last quarter. Didn't do much inbetween.
Taberner goals through more than doubtful free kicks, commentators.

Anyone heard if Newnes has been fined by the AFL ?

Throwing the chair ?
Covid 19 breach for touching the extension chords without sanitising them ?
Bullying the cameraman and security guard into moving ?

Surely they are going to come up with something to pay us back for pinching the game :smile:

Don’t worry that’s going to happen this Friday night versus Gold Coast, you’d better bring your own personal supply of KY, you’re going to need it.

The free kicks get the tick, but Newnes taking the kick does not, although they stop short of saying it was a flat out mistake by acknowledging the umpires would be bound by their "view" on gameday or similar.
