felt sorry for Nason last night
The handball from Rance in the last quarter on the outer side was suicidal.
Nason to his credit took a big hit and was slammed into the ground.
He could of pulled out of the contest but didnt :thumbsup

yeah that happened just in front of us - heard the whack = OUCH
Tucky is a hard ball/contested machine - no doubt. But there is a reason why he has not been played up until now - he is not a great user of the ball, not a good decision maker and does not provide run and carry. We all love his strength around stoppages but if he hands it straight back to the opposition then it is a waste.


yep you're right but I don't think the reason is his decision making or disposal. If that was the criteria, half our team wouldn't have been dropped by now
:lol

Lack of pace to spread from a stoppage would be Tucky's main reason for not being picked in the first few rounds. He'll stay in this week with Jacko out. Both can't be in the same side every week if we are to improve.

Hopefully the footy show squad is right and Batch is back.

someone from the club recently said that after 5-6 rounds the pace of the game slows which suited tuck better so they were waiting to play him.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

That was Craig Cameron who said that.
