Dangerfield and Selwood not far behind.



:shock:

Selwood is highest ranked player on the ground.



I also think they are 3 of the top ball winners on the ground


All 3 of them are always up there for possessions but they burned it big time.
Danger had 25 possessions with 11 clangers.

Ablett is a champion but he’s nowhere near as effective as he once was.

We expect a lot from those 3 but I don’t think they delivered last night.


i thought ablett was terrific, tried his heart out all night, did more than 10 of their other blokes did put together

i saw dangerfield refuse to pass to him, because danger doesnt want ablett to get more possessions than him ;)

Ablett was better in the 2nd half once the game slowed a bit, and whilst I know the Cats had to address their aging list, there were times last night it seemed they could have used Enright and Mackie. Hopefully Ratogolea stays healthy and continues his development next season to give them a target when Hawkins pushes up.

true story, did u just login just to insult me and the factual event?

danger got ball 40 metres out, ablett standing on his own danger looked right at him, but danger decided to take on the 2 guys and have a shot on goal around the body and got smothered

ablett cleaned up the mess, collected the smothered kick, then nicely handballed it back to danger and 15 metres out on the run he kicked a point

saw duncan do it as well to ablett on the wing

danger not in it for the team

i doubt danger wouldve gone to geelong if ablett was there originally, taking away all his lime light #bitter

Still scratching my head. And we are going to top up again. Madness. As for the Dream midfield maybe in 2015 it was the dream midfield but we got owned by Gawn, Harmes, Oliver and Brayshaw last night. The only thing worse than you being right (which is bad enough LOL) is that ******* David King was right as well. :(

Ok to all my fans,
Quick summary of Thursday night
Why the **** when we are a so called possession team would we try and knock the ball forward at all cost instead of taking the ball in our hands.
Young ones didnt handle the occasion, id expect them to be better for the run next week.
Burgoyne wont put 2 games like that together and Breust choked.
Stratton out a real concern, hope we go with Brand rather than Mirra
Im expecting a massive reaction next Friday night and we will win. Melbourne celebrated like they won the GF
