    Yeah , that only leaves them with Chapman, Ling, corey , bartel, scarlett , milburn, mooney, etc etc etc etc etc etc.

    If we play like we did in the second half against Geelong , its a fifty point plus loss. Then again even if we play like the first half we still probably lose by twenty.

    Now is the time to put some $$$$ on Ablett for the BRownlow

    Bad luck for GAJ. I was really looking forward to watching him play and wondering who his matchup would be.

    Whilst he was on the forward line it would have been the Bevanator. On the ball it might have also been the Bevanator, but probably Buchanon. Damn shame that the clash between SOG and GNOB (Great Nephew of Brian) won't eventuate.

    Damn shame for anyone who has Ablett in their DT, that's about all. As I have said a number of times, I don't mind Bevan at all, but Ablett would destroy him.

    One great postive from Richmond again is that we were not very Hall focus. We adapted to his weakness on the day reasonably fast - credit to the players or coaches? Hall played his team thing, not getting too aggro when the balls are not coming to him. Our multi-dimension attack brought us goals earlier except the second half. Umpires also played a negative part in us for not dominating? We relaxed and dropped intensity way too early?

    Multi-dimension attack is best. If Hall is not getting the grab or winning one-one-one, or lose confidence in kicking accruately, as in Vs Richmond, he is better suited half forward where he can contribute or used more often as a decoy taking away their key defender. The last thing we want is he losing one-on-one often, losing grab on any other kind, wasting opportunities for quarters.

    If we play like first half with full intensity with quite a few smart stepping opponents and confidence over 4 quarters, winning over 20 on Geelong is achievable. I swear I am not taking fancy drug when I say this.
