Roosy been doing the votes in Sydney games? Loves himself a bit of Kieren does Roosy

Played bloody well on the weekend.

And the reigning premiers have a had a bloody tough draw thus far. 

Very true Mr T but I wouldn't fancy the job of negating SOG on any given day, let alone getting 28 disposals myself!  To do both was a very very good effort indeed.

I was at that game and Nick Smith was on Gaz for decent periods and when they subbed on Craig Bird he went straight to him for basically the remainder of the game. Jack's first half on him was great, had a lot of help though over 4 qtrs.

Fair enough Gerks, probably helps explain why Jack got away himself.

We were having a bit of a laugh at Horse being such a bastard – you can imagine what Gazza was thinking, wet and heavy conditions, hard tag all day, then this fresh bloke comes off the bench and starts trotting towards you...

Great game by Cotch. Excellent.

Cotch has racked up 100 disposals in the first 3 games  . No.1 in the AFL

I thought he was getting Lower'd this week?

  Shows the difference in mindset from preseason to real stuff

The only thing that was "Lower'ed" was Nicks pants. By Cotch. To his ankles.
Possibly the best opening month by a new AFL captain in a generation if he can lead us to a win next week.

Cotchin = Champion!!!

[Hellenic Tiger]

Love how some in the crowd call him Brownlow. He could easily win two or three. Has the mindset to be one of the games best ever players.

The only worry with Cotch,Is like Ivan we don't run him into the ground.

And cheer out loud when he gets the ball.

Getting more than his fair share of attention this year not only from the opposition tagger but also the rest of the team. The opposition are very conscious of shutting him down and roughing him up at any opportunity. I thought that was one of the major reasons we beat the Saints in Rd 2, their focus on 'Brownlow'(going to use that from now on Tucker  ) allowed the rest of the midfielders to get loose. Lids, Martin and Conca must be loving the relative freedom.
