Match Day Thread Rnd 5 V Western Bulldogs.

We havent had a big score kicked against us yet, so the backline is not doing too badly defensively. Being overseas for a bit of this season (missed 2 games so far) I cant comment too much, but from what I have seen and read on RWO it appears our disposal from defence, and maybe lack of players presenting and spreading has caused too many turnovers, and our midfield disposal scrappy and without purpose apart from Lloyd. We have lost 2 matches by narrow margins and coming back from a tough game in the West and playing poor conditions didn't help.

I know this sounds like a trivial comment but - I think it is time Longmire told Rampe to either get his hair cut or wear a head band (such as Fyfe does). There are so many times that Rampe has one hand up pushing his hair back out of his eyes. It must distract him even if he is not aware of it. Given his form is not great at the moment, he can ill afford any unnecessary hindrance.
The first option (get his hair cut) would follow the trend set by a lot of the other Swans e.g. Tippett, Jetta.

Or maybe his form has dropped off because he has been on the gaspers. Has he got ahead of himself.

I was thinking the same thing during the game. There was a specific moment when he was getting up from a pack and his hair was covering his eyes. I thought to myself he needs to borrow one of my headbands!

By the way, does anyone know where Gatorade Girl has gone? Footy's not the same without her

Well I hope neither of them head to Melbourne next year!

Agreed. Losing both of them would be a huge loss
