if there were such a thing.
says a lot though that someone would prefer the visy dump over westpac.
Urm...a bit like Banger preferred it over Moorabbin...
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'
he's a good kick and hopefully will spend some time with gilbert over summer.
I mentioned we should nab him for his kicking...then remembered Travis Cloke plays for Collingwood, plus their woeful conversion rate, and thought it best to stay quiet.
So either he is a bad teacher.
Or Cloke is a dumb pupil.
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

i'd suggest the latter.
huddo is cool with me now.
Cloke wasn't the only dud kick in the team...the Pies make us look pretty good, if you're to take there perennial excuse for losing to us of "oh, we didn't kick straight" onboard.
Always been a fan of Paul Hudson's though, thought he was a good footballer who spent the best part of his career stuck in lousy teams.
BTW, avatar...great shot with that kick drum...ouch!
Cloke is unreliable in the way Loewe was. Given too long to think he shanks them.
But the pies style is to attack wide and when corralled take a shot, often out wide and from a fair distance out. They then zone up to stop the ball coming out.
It is low percentage risk taking football but they back themselves to win the 50/50 ball.
I can't imagine Ross ever going so cavalier but wouldn't mind seeing us try a little more risky footy, maybe Hudson can get them a little more unpredictable.

Huddo's on the team as a development coach though, not a tactical forward coach, is that right?
The Pies had to play that way, to utilise players like Didak, Thomas, Dick, Davis, etc. Our 'mosquitoes' are far more likely to take a set shot, which fits in with our style of play. You're right, I can't see Ross being as cavalier either...he'd be after something more consistant with set plays and several drilled options.
