Were you watching the game?

He did kick 2 goals. 1 from right on the 50 if I remember correctlty and our only goal for the entire second quarter.

But since he is a favourite wipping boy of some of the "supporters" on this forum we shouldnt let a little thing like the truth get in the way of our bagging should we :roll:

Soft. Too many missed/slipped/avoided tackles. Love my IQ where I can watch his 'efforts'. Another turnover merchant. Soft.

A low grade priority from GWS...

Speaking of GWS- does anyone else get the feeling BJ is playing like he's not going to be at St Kilda in 2012?

Heard this said a few times.

I don't think he's going anywhere, but even if he was why would that cause him to play so poorly :?

Got Emmylou's new album the other day, she's written a new song about Gram called The Road.

Lower GWS pick which Id take.

They'll need some experience may as well go as hard as we can...

He's frustrating to watch. Can't question the endeavour of the majority of the side but to see if effort just before half time, bouncing the ball past the centre and out of the corner of his eye saw a hawk approaching. Shat himself and turned it over. I could mention another two efforts where he could have taken a hit but piked it.

My 11yo will never be a champion, but is what you can call an honest tryer. To see him today throwing himself onto the ball, smothering in front of flying boots, head long into contests ..... then getting home to see what Gram offers. Not good enough.

Right at the moment, this bloke, who came second in a best and fairest, was best on ground in a Grand Final 20 months ago, and who at 27 should be playing his best footy, is probably the only player on our list who at times I feel genuine contempt for.

Last year was a shocker for him, groin surgery, other stuff happening.

He still appears to run like he is sore, perhaps it's a mental thing?

I always thought Luke Ball still played 'injured' when he likely wasn't.

Dunno.

He literally dreamed of playing for the Saints, I wonder if he forgot to pinch himself.
