Great half of football.

Loving Richards and Fin Macrae’s performances.

Don’t know the rule but he might not be eligible due to being a mature age player.

Richard’s’ first half was absolutely stellar. He reminds me of Tony Francis. Injuries can have positives.

Great quarter of footy. I'm loving the contributions of all the newsters. This is the perfect game to blood them and they so far are delivering. I think Beau had better pull his finger out because Richards is showing up his performances of the last few matches. Howe's injury means Reef has to take responsibility and looks like he is starting to do that now.

Sidey has grown an extra leg this match and its good to see him being creative and playing more like the Sidebottom of previous years. Nick, Pendles, and Crisp are cutting them up so far.

With the rejigging of the backline Quaynor has had to stand up and he has had an improved game too.

At the moment we have most of the play on our terms and we have a significant buffer for when our reduced bench starts to take its toll in the last.

IS he any distant relation of Lou, as Ed Richards at the Doggies is ? :o

Great to have a big lead, but we must bury them. Here's a big chance to build our percentage into positive territory. We are right back in the mix this season - despite our horrible run with injuries at the moment.

Hoping we don’t put the cue in the rack. Knife is in, need to twist it.

We won't get to play many sides in the bottom part.of the draw, I'm sure Fly will keep the players aware of the percentage we can pick up from a big win.

He's too old for the Rising Star, but he is playing well. Dual sided, quick, team player and he has time. Just looks composed with ball in hand and comfortable at AFL level.

Sullivan is like a bull terrier.

I wonder if we will go into tempo footy mode for the second half? Given our injuries we might I think.

Five exciting points to savour
McCrae showing what is possible
Ditto McInnes -but both must launch their career of what they show
Richards more advanced as is Sully
The fifth went off but HH is in our future

OK competition poor but it is what it is
I'm not arguing--just explaining why i am right
