Re: Interesting Video
Amusingname says 'if you can't kick, teams will sag off and make you kick and possibly turn it over'. There are 2 Saints that attract that sort of oppo tactic. Geary and Ross. I've noticed that oppo players don't care if Gears parks in a pocket or flank to mark a kick-in after a point. In fact, the...

Re: Billings injury free.
He is over his foot injury which required a weekly jab in the second half of the season and will play mainly half-forward according to Mitch Cleary. Our forward line is much more powerful if either Gresham or Billings play primarily as a forward . With Gresham probably the better of the two in the ...

Re: Assistant Coaches
Who was the person celebrated today by the players?
The players called him to lead the players off the ground and brought him into the circle to sing the song.
I saw similar with Choco last night with Melbourne.
