10 things i've noticed this season

[Bengal]

1. The 2 talls up forward with Ivan floating through to pinch hit works better than having 3 permanent talls.

2. Moving Edwards into his new role may push Nahas out of the side.

3.  Ivan and Morris have been astute choices for the game style Hardwick wants to play..

4. We may have the best midfield in the competition

5. Kicking straight wins games

6. Newman, Houli, Rance, Griffiths, Grimes, Astbury, Ellis, Batchelor and Morris cant all play in the same side..  hard decisions will need to be made at times.

7. Hardwick is a very good and so far, under rated coach

8. Craig Cameron and Francis Jackson have done and are doing great jobs in recruiting.  More hits than misses the last few years

9. We're only belief away from getting into the final 8.

10. The players are finally playing for the jumper...  with no big headed over paid egocentric players ruling the roost.

Nahas and edwards are different players...nahas can push up into midfield and win some ball , applies good defensive pressure....edwards is more effective close to goal, is a good mark and great through traffic...can also push into midfield, not as good defensively

Thats where we disagree, i think Edwards is a far better defensive player than Nahas and Edwards can and does push through the midfield.  IMO they're similar players but Edwards is a better mark and player in traffic.  Time will tell.

[Penelope]

edwards is a better decsion maker and will kick on hi non preferred foot rather than always look to get on his right and/or kick with the outside of his right when unbalanced

[Tigermonk]

Nahas started the game in the centre.

[Coach]

3 Tall forwards can work. It's just that Vickery has been ass this year and Miller & Jack inconsistent.

Bengal, WTF are you giving Cameron wraps for  B.Hartley  Or Hornsby as Stripes calls him.

I like them rotating our best mids through the forward line and i think with another tall in there its just way to busy..  having 4 targets is confusing.  Have to give Cameron and FJ and i will add Brendon Gale to them as well for getting things right and appointing the right people..  Ross Smith, Lade, etc.. And the recruiting has been second to none in the past few years..

Quote from today:

“Craig Cameron, Blair Hartley and Francis Jackson have worked incredibly hard to bring in draft players to improve our footy club, but also those guys who weren’t getting an opportunity at other clubs,” Hardwick said on 3AW.
