Time for a well deserved Jimmy Beam , hey T P ! 8)
Also time for the posters who want to delist C. Brown to man up and admit that they were premature in wanting him out. I thought his performance with doing the one percenters was elite. Top game from Browny.

That goal he kicked from 55 off a step was ridiculous

A big shout out to Noble.
His gut running in the last quarter was great to see.
STILL THINK cox is a better player than Cameron or LYNCH
Really, did he? The first quarter and a bit was extremely similar to all our other games this year other than the Cats game. What was different was we executed much better and Jamie made sure we kept the scoreboard pressure on. When the acid was put on in the 2nd and early in the 3rd quarter we went back into our shells and our mindset became somewhat defensive and we didn’t take our opportunities allowing the Crows back into the game. Good coaching along with improved positive mindset kept us in the game and eventually got us the win.
Agree regarding Cox - however the rumour regarding games played and triggering of extension clause is true. Good management by us to control this and take the power in relation to contract negotiation (has Wrighty written all over it)

That's more like it!

Shows what a difference it makes having a reliable and creative forward like King Billy.

Had Grundy played we'd have won by 5 goals. Lynch gave us nothing, but at least he made a contest in the ruck.

We've got a couple of beauties in Poulter and Bianco, the latter destined to be our captain in a few years.

As others noted, Pendles and Sidey were magnificent in the 2nd half. In fact I thought it was one of Sidey's best games for a couple of years.

Oh, and I nearly forgot to acknowledge the coach. Well done Bucks!

He was a party boy who was downhill skiing and a turnover king. By his own admission, Seedsman said being traded was the kick up the bum he needed.

Really, really happy with that win. We showed mental toughness and will to win that seemed to have gone missing for a while, and it was largely driven by our kids: Poulter, Bianco and Rantall. They were fantastic in that last quarter. And Sidey was huge as well. Cameron summoned up everything he had in those last frenetic moments and that is a testament to his desperation to win as well. Callum Brown made an impact by nullifying Adelaide's midfield domination. Jamie Elliott..what can you say, a star, and when you see him there you realise how much we have missed him. Our structure is totally revitalised when we have a brilliant leading forward to aim at. It releases JDG to play a more active role in the game. I look forward to seeing Billie and McCreery working together in our forward line next week.
Noble made a few blunders, but he was often stunning with his explosive pace and the way he generated forward attacking moves, often streaming forward himself to supply an alternative if required.
Maynard was often brilliant, and i liked the way he kept encouraging our young players, or consoling them if they made an error.
Lynch looked good in the first quarter. It was too easy for O'Brian to beat him in contested marks though. He certainly was competitive though. Not sure whether we keep him against the Dees, or do we bring in Cox instead? My instinct suggests to me that maybe we should go with Cox instead of Lynch against Gawn.
Overall, I am really happy with the improvement in our team's competitive spirit, and the fantastic contribution from our kids. And with the return of Jamie Elliott. It will give us much needed optimism going into the QB game.
Free Julian Assange!!

Aaah. I had a feeling it enabled an important trade for us. :wink: Thanks.
