While our tackling and pressure last week was unbelievable, I think another part of our game was just as critical in setting up the big win - that was the way we moved the ball forward fast, playing on at every opportunity. When we went forward Geelong's defenders had no time to set up, we gave their midfielders no time to get back and plug up holes, and its the most dangerous our forwards have looked for a long time. If we do the same again this week we'll win easy. WC have some good midfielders, but looking for too many negating matchups I think is unneccesary. Our mids are in form - let them worry about us.

that quick movement may have been as a result of the fact that we were underdogs and had nothing to lose, and players were instructed to play freely because everyone expected us to get smacked anyway.

Hoping we go out playing that same attacking footy...because coupled with the defensive pressure we showed, we will account for the eagles comfortably.

We are yet to really play 2 good games on the trot this year, so the challenge is before us.
There's more to life than footy.........just not much more.

It's great to have an unchanged side, and really no one deserves to be dropped after last week. Bryan is a great inclusion against West Coast, he is an intimidator and gives us plenty of grunt and hardness. He also kicks the odd goal or two and takes a good contested mark. Mick has always been horses for courses and if something isn't broken why fix it, as long as we don't get too cocky and too far ahead of ourselves we should go alright.

about bryan, it would be cruel to leave chris bryan out after his great performances...he has been great and deserves his spot

it also sends wood a message. he has the potential to be so much better, make sure he doesnt take his spot for granted
