Magpies by 40, as we start the 2nd term.

Roosters kicking with the aid of a 3-4 goal breeze to the Batman Avenue end, but at this rate, they'll be flat out getting a clearance even...

I've finally worked out who that is for us in #54. It's old mate Blair!

I say only just now, because he's scarcely been near it to date...

He escaped from Dyso. :shock:

Awesome work batty! Thanks for the running commentary.

Btw traditionally Blair has performed in the VFL much like he does at AFL level.

Typically low to mid teens possession winner.

^Not at the beginning of his career.

He was very good making the VFL Victorian side and hell even I was a fan back then and wanted him in the 22.
He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD!

His last appearance at this level vs Willy in 2015, he picked up 30.

So, if he's struggling to get a kick against the favourite for the spoon, you've gotta ask yourself 'just how far from the perch has he fallen'...?
