    #AFL Round 3 Weekly Discussion Thread

    Cats going well again.....I like the way they play, I wish we would play that way. While Gary Rohan has only 3 possessions at half time, he keeps bobbing up with pressure acts or competing in the air and bringing the ball to ground......looks very at home in that team and he'll get away with low possessions while they're winning at least.

    Adelaide look fairly average.....how does that make us look? I hope we improve....a lot!

    Some very interesting games this weekend and a GF replay.....

    Have a good one....

    Adelaide are very average. We are more average t g an Adelaide I think. Sad. But sometimes you have to have a bad season for the club to realise it needs to change.

    Bruce becomming more excited as the Crows get closer. He was very subdued when Geelong dominated early on.

    6 possessions, 2 tackles. Lucky he kicked the two goals.
    Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

    As I said before, it's the pressure acts as well, one which lead to a Cats goal in the last quarter when they needed one and yes, I will say it....an X factor....of bobbing up when needed, as he did in the last quarter tonight.

    I reckon the Cats would be loving him at the moment. His challenge now....is to keep it up and not go quiet. While they're winning, he's safe as....

    I was surprised by the stats just because at least on TV he looked more involved, in the sense of often being close to the action.

    Seems to be playing a similar role as for us but more consistently visible, 3 games in at least. Will be interesting to see how his season progresses.

    I am so disappointed that we traded him. What a terrific player, crushed by the meatgrinder that is the Longmire gameplan.

    Its certainly a different perspective seeing him at another team. But his output ( the commentator said 6 possessions for 2 goals, sometime in the last quarter I think) is pretty much on par with his Swans performances in the 2015-2017 period.
    I do find myself barracking for him when the ball enters the geelong forward line. I wish him all the best.


    The ball does enter the forward 50 more often at geelong than it did at Sydney.
