Interesting debate, how many talls is 2 many?! Pies and lions played 5 and 2 or 3 hybrids (Lester, Howe, etc). We played 6 or 7 talls this season.

Yeah that was good. We played a mostly straight bat structually with Martin as first ruck and English as 2nd ruck + Bruce and Naughton.

2021 we had a great start and mostly maintained it. We really need wins early and maintain momentum.

Round 1 has been a bit painful in recent times. We seem to find our groove mid year most seasons after a bit of experimentation.

I sent them a new weighing machine and height measure, so they are slowly checking every player to update the site :D:D

Right if we did the trade and North took Curtin then there might have been value. Probably too risky though

The knock on Bramble from Hawks mates is that he undoes a lot of good work by missing his kicks so there is work to do there. Both Hawks mates were...

I think they would have taken Duursma before Watson. And I think we would take Duursma ahead of Sanders. I'd suggest our rankings were Reid,...

Hopefully we play more than one practice match so we can properly trial our set up and playing style… and play competitive teams too.

I can still remember my dear old nan (who died in 1980) watching Steptoe and saying 'oh that filthy old man'

I still remember that famous afternoon listening to the transistor radio at my uncles house bouncing on his trampoline. As soon as the game ended I...

Hopefully this works better than the 4 headed monster experiment

I don't get the 'Dale to wing' obsession. He's an AA quality backman, and in the last 12 Months we've signed Williams, Scott, Baker, Poulter, Arty...

Bench rotation is a difficult issue and is one of the reasons second rucks really don't exist. They have been replaced by the forward ruck as the...

Surely we can play both with one coming off the bench. Especially with Darcy?s ability to play all 3 lines, it makes him the perfect bench option.

The results of our review: train harder. I'm being facicous of course. I think. It wouldn't actually surprise me if our training standards have...

Welcome aboard. Kickit2koly, I'm thinking you're a long term fan with that username :) Loved Kolynuik.

The club does seem to have lifted the quality of some of the content it's sharing now. I'd imagine the player details will be completed today. I...

Welcome mate - love the user name! Are you based in Japan?

I agree. We either play him the middle, or we don't play him as I don't see any value in that forward role. If we don't want to play a 3x AA in...

No I agree, I just find the idea of closing off basic parts of the site in response to the good stuff we've been getting recently funny

That's exactly where my mind went. So wtf have we been doing previously? Cynicism switch on, it feels like a nicely stage managed message for the...

Certainly more chance of a meaningful contribution. That may change when we see him play.

Is it just a sign that the site is being updated with all the new players and their numbers? I checked earlier in the week and it still had the...

Agree. It's a bit of a shame that we're talking about a first year player driving higher standards in senior players.

You want access to inner sanctum moments? Well now we're taking away the ability to know who the players and coaches even are. Congratulations you...

Do you think the Hawks were more keen on Watson than those two? Personally I'd expect it means Watson falls to Melbourne

Also I still think Macrae will play a central role in the centre next year. maybe Sanders will play high half forward for a while to begin with.
