    Gee how good is Cameron? I've seen him live 3 times this year...he has played unbelievable.
    Just like the grand final. Every 50/50 going their way, every bounce of the ball going their way.

    I want him to be useful but what exactly does MacLean offer?

    Stephens having a 'mare as well.

    Generally when your first to the ball you get to the drop quicker its a intensity workrate issue

    I ask this every time he gets a run. Just don't get it.

    I don't listen to the 7 commentary unless I have to - Watson is the WORST special commentator in the business and Darcy is bloody hopeless.

    BONUS - we get Lingy as well!

    I really don’t get Francis forward when we’re challenged for height down back and we need Mills in the midfield winning the ball.
    'Delicious' is a fun word to say

    Agree - Francis down back, Mills in the midfield

    He has attributes to be a good forward in the square. But he offers nothing when it hits the ground, doesn't create much pressure and too busy trying to line up a man than play the ball.

    I know why they've selected him - but I just can't see what he is bringing to the team at the moment.

    Blakey swap with Francis

    Blakey's pace may worry some of the Geelong backs - worth a try I think

    Just bizarre isn't it. Can have Lockett up forward and it'll make no difference if our midfield can't win the ball.

    The extra average weight and height is really showing all over the ground. They are better plus they are also getting the rub of the green again too.

    He's so slow when it hits the ground. He has the turning circle of an 8 wheeler
