Good bump.

It actually was.
He'd get games for intent today but didn't hit him in the head from memory.

Ripper bump.

Saying that, it's not that hard to bump someone clean when they only see you just before contact.

Need to protect the head, and if that means the game changes then so be it.

You are kidding? Hardest draw in the first 5 weeks for a team that finished equal bottom last year.
GWS, Carlton, Brisbane (all predicted as probable top 4), Geelong at Geelong & Freo who should really be 5-0
Imagine if we got WC, Rich (hello Port) to start the year, the Crows or Hawthorn…
It’s all about perspective, we know where we’re at, it’s going to take time.
Scrutiny after 17 games, turn it up.


Well you answered my question… so thanks.

Every draw is hard when you are at the bottom, you are often going to play teams that finished above you last year, I get that.

You have the crows and hawthorn in the next 2 weeks, so that should balance out the tough start a bit then.

I read a lot of comments today asking similar questions, about when the questions can be asked of the Clarkson period, so I asked that question on here.

17 games is too early. Noted.


I dare you to ask again next week.


Is it still too early?

No doubt, we are garbage at the moment and North should be feeling confident playing us in Hobart.

Beating the crows in Hobart still won’t make my original question last week any less relevant.
