I think Fletch had a good game last night from what I could tell he played on Mannagh for a lot of the time and kept him pretty quiet, two behinds for the night. Fletch had 22 disposals and 504m gained a good confidence builder for him and good contribution for the team.
Did anyone else see Conor McKenna's interview on Ch-7
I love his answer about the dimensions at Kardinia Park - 'I don't mind it - it's long there are a couple of goal posts at each end and I just kick a goal really its my first time playing here at AFL level its just another field.'
Love the thinking - plain and simple. In saying that I think the Lions brought a good strategy to counter the home ground advantage.
So Fages was taking about Neale and Bailey last night on Fox and he said players come and go its part of the way things are now. It was interesting that he mentioned he hadn't spoken a lot to Zac yet and that he might have to get involved.
I was thinking about how much we supposedly can pay him and the idea that we don't pay overs. I was then reading about Darcy Wilson from St Kilda - never heard of him and don't recall his name in the limited Saints games I have watched - nonetheless according to Fox he is worth $1.2m a season. How?
