I don't know about you, but I worry about McPhee. He looks stressed, tense, almost as though some people are picking on him, yelling rude things at him. He worries because he hears voices urging him to eat waffles (or offal or something like that).
Anyway, "Flinchy" is not a very nice moniker for one of our guys - so how about he becomes "Smokey" again. I'm sure he was "Smokey" a few years ago.......
Couple of blokes next to me were having a crack at him as he lined up for that rather tidy and decent goal he kicked late in the game and I tried to point out that he was putting in a lot of hard work around the ground off the ball... then, on the way home, I heard someone who sounded suspiciously like Ken Judge talking about how, over the last 3 years, Freo hadn't traded anyone, only drafted. That talk turned to Smokey and the idea that he'd been recruited to fill Dean Solomon's role around the ground... despite the obvious flaw in the timing as Solomon was still on the list at that stage, it makes sense to me.
He's providing a fair whack of thump out there. Bloody handy stuff, that.
Just found this and thought it was all wrong until I saw the detail on the magazine cover at 43secs...
Adam (No it's not right) put in some ripper tackles late in the game and was also at the bottom of a few packs (where a melon like that should be). Kicked a couple of important goals (none more important than his last one) and I reckon he is going OK - not great but OK. No way known could Kep Kep fill the role that Adam (please can I call him Flinchy) played at the weekend.
That he was still an obvious clanger exponent in team full of dubtantes and skinny kids, just establishes Flinchy's place in the pecking order of those of us who've stuck their bum on a bench for a decade or more every fornight.
