Crap, their mids know that Marshall only taps it at his feet so that is the area they need to cover.

Half time will be much more useful for us than them.

Acres 20 disposals, $900.000 man 10 and not amazingly good either!

We kept being told the umps don't look at the stats at half time but expect a few soft even-ups in Q3.

He is on him isn’t he ….. standing next to him on my tv
Needs to put the clamps on him instead of going after his own ball

Yeah - watch some clear marks be paid as frees!

It's like they have to find a position for him so it's around high half forward or wing.

He works his butt off but he's a headless chook defensively. Same with NWM. Nas struggles once the loose ball is on the deck.

Nas will hopefully be playing wing as he builds a tank.

I don't know why our selection committee doesn't get its head around the fact that the whole list should be used during the 22 games.

Probably Highmore would be perfect assisting in marking contests but also tough around contested loose footy in the backline

Yeah getting thrown to ground without the ball should have done more.

Phillipou, Steele, Membrey....all ineffective. Pretty good strategies by Voss so far. He was and is a clever bastard.

Not to mention a much as it pains me...Blues have some flippin class players that when they lift have the raw talent to leave us standing I
'Membrey one our best.
When I commented he had kicked a behind, had 4 marks ( 1 contested) and 6 disposals for 51% effeciency...yes, hes taken more marks now but only 1 was contested and lifted to 56% effecient. He has been a target but not too effective...but hes been a champion in his role as a #2 and doubt he will be held for too long.
