If we finish 9-11 th position ( kinda ironic ) then we need to cut the list hard and start building the list with quality. We cannot hang on to list cloggers and players with deficiencies. ...

I got struck by de ja vu reading that grear post
Like last season
And the season before... same old same old bummers

They just cannot do anything wrong

I wonder if clubs are cautious as they see what has happened with Grundy and how its impacted the Salary cap of Collingwood, as a result have to offload players .

its crazy that we played him out of position, for someone who gets nervous and does not yet have the physique

Young has played 11 of 14 games in navy blue, holding down a crucial role in a...

Josh needs to watch all the incredible Hulk movies and scenes from the Avengers.

Lewis took tome telling Marks by using his 207 cm physique and just force his presence in the contest. 4...

Is that all ?

How many " Is that a being a Tool act? " did Sicily get counted for ?

I recall at least 3:

1. pulling Naughton's headband
2. pathetic attempt to shirtfront bonts,...

Interesting now that pressure acts are recorded as a stat
When did this start happening ? It is another KPI i guess they measure

Don’t really see this on the tv as it may be off screen

Can...

I am more concerned about playing injured players. Hope Cody is ok after the game and can recover

Sicily tries to bump Bont , and he puts him on his backside.
What a thug Sicily

this is becoming a common theme against hawks.

2 goals on the rebound, same familiar story. Crap delivery into fwd line, no crumbers and keeping pressure fwd.

Geez, ironic Syndey was mentioned in this thread earlier. Its a place DeGoey would find less scrutiny. Him and Parker would just cause havoke in the fwd mid half.

They exploited the salary CAP to get franklin to the max. Not only drafting players stealthily, but with their live trades in one of the last 2 drafts . They are just so good at playing the...

1. Schache field kicking is elite and forward craft on the lead. We really should play him on the wing, like the way Richardson did in his last season for the tigers. The only thing that makes me...

Bring Back Basil Zempilas ( entertainment) and Dennis Cometti actually good commentary!

1. When our precision kicking game is on, we are very efficient at the ball. Also our work rate improved, we start wining the clearances. Macrae and Libba were amazing tonight . Macrae tackles in...

Schache got better in the second half, but geez, someone teach him how to throw some physicality in the contests. He got out rucked by Green at one stage.

He got out rucked by Green in the last quarter on the first bounce

Thats 3 goals to free kicks tonight to the GWS. Absolute rubbish

Injury to Duryea , we really miss his discipline

But not good, we are leaking goals.

Dale has been poor tonight defensively. Zero contest for that mark on Toby Green. Not even in the picture frame.
Green gets 4 goals

Ball ends up fwd of GWS and they get a goal, now 5 points the difference instead of 16 .

We have had the majority of inside 50s for this quarter and only 10 points in front ,
bad miss from Naughton
miss from Treloar

you got to kick those 30 m in front McComb!

Hogan is playing on one leg as well.

Schache has offered very little physically. No Preuss. His chance to exert some influence and does not even get the ball to ground in favour first minute of the quarter.

Even Naughton's...

We need to block their mids. Tom Green and Ward are having too much of an influence in the second half of that quarter

West very good early on with that assist on goal going back to that flight of...

I kinda guessed that.. sometimes hard with subtle humor. But really enjoy the discussion

Keep it up.

I wonder if Goldy is asking for 2 more years , so he can stay a 1 club player ? His stuck in a wooden spooner team until he finishes.

or.... betray loyalty and come play for a top4 team...

Maybe McComb’s kicking gotten better ? He does offer more in the midfield and plays wing, than McNeil
I hope Schache swallows some angry pills and towels their 2 rucks. This is his chance to shine...

Hujst and EW your knowledge of players is uncanny , almost spiritual like . Was thinking of the bald eagle but for some stupid reason I could not recall what position he played Becuase I was away...

I know Suckling's defensive efforts were questionable, but when he kicked those goals from outside 50m arc, it was beautiful to watch.

Add to the 60 m kickout from the backline were awesome to...

Can we just hire Twodogs as kicking coach ?

Can we get a goal kicking coach? Restraining myself from using any expletives

They got rid of some of their senior players too early.
Petrie and Harvey come to mind . Petrie went to have 1 good year in 2017 with WC and might have helped with subsequent 2018 flag. They...

Great post , totally agree

Prolific Goal kicking HB and wingman don’t grow on trees. They are game changers :
Issac smith , Gilbee, suckling , Peter matera , Winmar , such good players …and...

I had them at round 4 capitulating to their old ways . Voss has kept them for 12 rounds at least . But agree it’s starting to unravelling now, their snowflake overpaid players will bear their true...

I am not convinced on this asking players to be multi positioned , as in reality it’s a hard ask and it requires a different skill set

Run +12km a game, be able to read the passage , mark in...

McStay offers that tall mark option from kickout in the backline. I have seen it a few times , the Lions rely on him to be part of that link chain out of defense. This is something that we are...

I hope both get to 50 games. I see more upside with Scott as he seems the more natural footballer, knows how to find the ball and can play in multiple positions

McNeil, his shown he can get the...

Is that because they are both known cheats ? ;)

It would be good to have Bruce back in the forward line to give Naughton support

It will also allow Buku/JUH ato take the third tall

We just need to sort out the fwd leading patterns and...
