Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. Our defence is a rabble without Morris, Boyd and Murphy.
2. Adelaide will go in as favourites next week.
3. If Stef Martin is up for grabs we'd be crazy not to offer him big bucks.'And the Western suburbs erupt!'Comment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. I remember a time when I came onto Woof and there was a lot of friction on here. It was annoying and I'm glad it has moved on and developed into what it is. I guess I realised today how much the nature of the board has changed over the years.
2. Our ruck is an ongoing concern ( Should we be looking at getting an American import as other clubs are starting to?) All options are on the table.
3. Today we gave up massive amounts of ground in a very short space of time to a lowly ranked club. Spells trouble.You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships every day. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity. ― EpicurusComment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. It was as unemotional footy as I've felt once Geelong got out to a good lead.
2. Finals baby! Only 8 teams to talk about on footy shows this week. Hopefully the media decide the narrative is our 'under dog' kids living a dream of a club and its supporters. Exciting to be back in it with the talent to win finals.
3. I learned that there's a bit to raid if Brisbane collapses again. Martin, Luey, Rich, McStay would all look great in our jumper at the right price.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. We need to bring effort consistently
2. We need a ruckman
3. Pointless round 22 wins can bring false hopeComment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. Weird things happen the week before finals.
2. You go in a couple of % off against anyone and you'll pay the price.
3. As great as our kids are, those few older heads make a big difference.Comment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. Our game is based on intensity and effort, when we take it easy we look terrible
2. Roughead isn't a #1 ruck
3. We rested a lot more than the 3 players who didn't make the team sheetIf you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
Hehe, last week everyone was lauding Roughead's job on Goldy and now he's not a #1 ruck. A week is a long time in footy, especially after a loss.Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.Comment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
The concern with Rich this season has been with his effectiveness when more closely checked by the opposition. Let home roam free and he can be very destructive with his kicking but he has gone missing too often when he hasn't been given the latitude, granted that this is his first season back after his ACL.Comment

Re: Three Things I've Learned - Round 23 Edition
1. As bad as we were today, Adelaide were worse. Both results will have little relevance next week.
2. This should have been a twilight or night game.
3. A meaningless round 23 win may set back Brisbane football 5 years if the Lions miss out on both Weitering and Schache (would happen if Blues lose Kreuzer and gain pick 2).Footscray member since 1980.Comment
