best game of the year, albeit against no competition. Nonetheless taackled chased harrassed

Cant fault him today. Should never be put in the same breath as spuds like Graham and Edwards. Much younger and has plenty of upside. I would also say he is played more quality games than those other 2 have in their careers, although today Shaun played well.

I look forward to watching the replay because I can tell you that sitting in the wonderful boutique stadium that is Spotless Stadium enjoying a "Ian's soft serve" ice cream I didn't see that much chasing especially when it came to 2nd efforts, certainly didn't see much harassing

Did see a fair bit of standing behind packs waiting for the cheap kick again. Saw a few tackles though which was pleasing but needs to do a lot more when he doesn't have it.

Well your blind WP or were blind drunk.  I'm sorry to say need to get those lids checked out or get off the grog

He was good yesterday. Has played better but compared to his usual output this year thought he did his job

Yeah it means you can't make out the forest from the trees. But hey what do I give a skata about it.
Lets just wait and see how the team performs against some opposition providing a hint of resistance and please
don't tell me how long you've been a member or how many games you go to if you go them I reckon just quietly I may have you covered. Whoa :shh

FFS we beat  side who lost by 111 in their last start prior to yesterday. It's not as if we were playing Port at Adelaide Oval.

I want to see Brando in the next few weeks before I even say he's reached the corner let alone turned it.

Now Angus, always have to have a bit of whack when you don't agree. Wasn't drunk, because I don't drink at the footy that is well known by everyone here  >:(

Wish though you'd actually read exactly what I wrote

I said I haven't watched the replay because I was actually at the game. I've always said a number of times that what you see at the game and what gets shown on the TV is very different.

Will watch the replay and see how his game comes across but based on what I saw at the game his work off the ball was no better than it's been all season. Yes something's he did better than he has been but still not where it should be

And I'll say it again lets not get too carried away with performances yesterday, the Giants were non competitive

Let's see if blokes back it up next week  :thumbsup
