This happens at the start of every year, it's that training difference between training drill runs with no pressure and playing against an opposition. This is where they need to get a bit more...

Josh Bruce looking a lot leaner

Thanks for the PM Bornadog your a legend ;)

Just emptied it, please try again Bornadog.

thanks again

For some strange reason i didn't get the email with the link to the practice game. Can anyone share the link here?

So we keep him for at least another year, preferably two. By 25 we should know what he is or isn't. If they still want him then great, if not then there would definitely be other suitors out there....

I've been thinking the same thing this year that it's been getting worse but i didn't realize via these stats actually how bad it is.

1.38 rhetorical questions per minute with 41 minutes of...

I would say the Willingness/speed in transition from a contest is a key point.

Our biggest failing this year has been our inability to stop sides on a role until a break in play (end of quarters)....

I'm not sure about pricks, but yes i agree we are unbalanced. Too many lighter running players and not enough of the types that win you those finals/tight physical games.

I also think we are...

Not complaining at all but just wondering how many other clubs Maccas sponsor?

Are we one of a number or have we been singled out for specific reason? (community work)

I like Richards a lot but averaging 11.2 disposals a game (5.8 kicks, 5.4 handballs) isn't good enough for a player of his ability.

I'm not saying he specifically should make way for Jong but to...

1. Nothings changed, we still look great against weak opposition with no pressure applied. Great at running hard offensively, and poor the other way. Even Adelaide scored several times in a row...

Definatley sounds like libba out, porter in as a direct replacement.
Got some big games coming up, good time to rest him.

Wouldn't surprise me to see Bont rotated forward a lot and less in the...

It's clear our forwards are still terrible at the long ball, we made poor decisions going forward and that was our problem.
However still you expect more from Schache in that he barely touched it...

I thought Suckling looked proppy last week, definitely see Butler as his replacement.
Looking forward to see him play at this level. He has had zero chances to prove himself at VFL level, so he...

I feel like you jumped into my head and stole all my thoughts and opinions on the game MJP.

Totally agree with you on most points, although I thought English was much better in the ruck, still...

Exactly, they shouldn't get seats at all as far as i'm concerned unless they are afl access one or medallion club members

So Every year we sell our soul to the big clubs, in particular the magpies, for our home games at Marvel Stadium.

Last time we basically reserved half of level 3 for Collingwood 'away' members...

Not that greatest list of draftees from the Jets really (Rayner the exception).
They certainly pale in comparison to the cannons and the knights.

Maybe it's got to do with the potential of an injury occurring and all the social media posting updates reporting it shortly afterwards.

Still seems stupid to me.

Looks good, has good hands. Worth a punt. I guess.. ;)

Would be mad to give 4 years to Elliot.
Has never played more than 20 games in a season. Missed 2016 and 2018 entirely with injury.

3 years with some caveats attached should be best offer.

Keath also toured Moorabbin but chose us, so a good nod to our people and plans that we have attracted the player over other clubs.

This doesn't happen often.

Perhaps they waited this long on Williams because they now realized they couldn't get the targets they were after.

At least he got kicked in the nuts, and it was because of his push on Dunks that it occurred, so he effectively kicked himself in the nuts.

Apparently now he thinks we are leaving Dickson out of the 22 because of selection.

1. We still struggle with the big forwards, Trengove even though I don't rate him, will have to come in I think.
2. Bailey Dale looks awesome when we are on top. Let's see what he does in a close...

Collingwood in front of 70,000 mad pies fans against a team we haven't beat twice this year, and got smashed by their ruck,
or GWS in front of 10,000 against an injury depleted team who we smashed...

I'm feeling exactly the same.... :(

There are just too many factors all aligning for the bulldogs pre 2016 to disappoint us.
I'm hoping this post 2016 bulldogs will not revert to the past.

So we are barracking for Collingwood to win both their games, and then we will probably play them in an elimination final at the G.

Yeah I don't think it's fair to judge him so harshly, sure he hasn't been the leaping leap frog intercepter we have seen in the past, but as Mofra has said he has had to adjust his role.

In 2016...

Yeah it's a bs stat.

They should really just quote revenue from membership sales.
How much do we make compared to Collingwood for example. I'm sure they will be more than double our figure.

Still if we had Cameron we would of easily won that game. Or even if Dickson was anywhere near his prime or Lloyd had a better game then it could of been different. Dickson has been great for us...

Hunter says hello. He butchered the ball today worse than I've ever seen him do. So many times they just banged it on the boot when they had time, and when they actually had time they missed easy...

Fletcher Roberts lack of pace worries me, especially on Hipwood, but I guess as long as he isn't getting the ball in marking contests in the goal square then he can lead out to 50 if he wants to find...

Cameron and Hipwood are my concerns.
I think we are a bit slow down back. Only JJ has the pace to go with Cameron but we need his drive, so that will leave
Cameron free a lot. I'm guessing...

I think it must be part direction from their producers. I'm sure when the game might be slowing down in parts that they are fed instructions to engage in banter. It's been obvious the direction...

Yeah I guess they see him as someone who can add that outside flair but I just don't see it. Bit of an Eagleton type for me.

I thought Bailey Williams has been showing a lot more toughness at the...

It certainly is, always less confident against teams below us, and ones that are going through a change in coach.

If we are going to play finals, we basically need to win every game, allowing...

Cavarra needs to come in, he looks a class above vfl, and we could use some zip around goals.
I think Tory Dickson is struggling to be honest, sure he still kicks straight but he's not the same...
