I'm pretty sure Tivendale had a lot of pine time, however when i did see him (not often) nearly EVERY possession of his was effective (or not a complete stuff up), so i've got no problems with him playing next week.

IMO he is suited a lot better at the MCG, where there is more space for him to do what he does.

I'd like to see him play against the saints at the G next week.

As for Simmonds, i made a post about him in another thread about him, but i wouldn't drop him.

Tivs did alright today. No noticable stuff-ups with is kicking. In fact did a great pass along the boundary line when squeezed on the members wing. The guy behind nearly spilt his beer when he found out who kicked it - "sh...., that was Tivendale" lol.

As for Chaff he's making me forget how bad he was last year. Totally spanked Hird. I can only think of two influential things Hird did - a chip pass to Lloyd and a goal to himself. The latter shouldn't a free to Hird either.

Joel will be happy - perfect winning record as captain  ;D.

Ok i am convinced now that Tivendale plays 20 times better at the MCG then Telstra Dome!

As for Chaff owning Hird today, :gobdrop :gobdrop :gobdrop

Yeah you're right Razor. Tivs does seem to play better at the MCG. Maybe the 'G being a bigger ground gives him more time and opportunity to swing on his left foot and kick long.
