YEah Ellis was awesome today, what I liked was he went in hard, took some contested grabs and was a lot cleaner, something clicked for him today.  The other bloke who stood up was Newman, he was rock steady today, came out of nowhere to save our bacon quite a few times and turned the flow around.
Lots of people name their swords......

just got here
havent seen coach
he might be under the chicken salt sign
crowd not looking great hopefully stays that way

I heard he's been working the frog cake stand. If you can't find him just look for the guy carrying 2 pie floaters after the game.

His dick is a frog cake

tl;dr thread but Ellis fumbled some easy ball because he saw a few blokes' pupils

has no probs going in for the ground ball or back with the flight, craps himself in pack situos

Def not an inside mid

Also reminds me of magilla gorilla, I do like him, no neck mofo

Ellis's second half was much better than his first half. In the first half he coughed up possession and fumbled. He is a good mark and can lay a good tackle but he needs to work on getting clean possession without fumbling. Deledio and Martin were outstanding. On this form Martin will win the best and fairest. His ball use was outstanding. King was really good. Happy with Stephenson's and Jack's performances. Newman deserves special credit. Played his best game for ages. Was very good.

Batch looked ordinary yesterday, slow too.

Ordinary but not bad IMO. Hasn't seemed to improve since his first year, potentially gone backwards actually

Batch played a very good game IMO. His direct opponent only had 4 touches for the game.

I guess what we look for from Batch is some drive out of the backline,considering hes a pretty good kick,and we don't get a lot of that from him,but maybe that role is primarily given to bacha,pettard,newman,and ellis
