Always Right Match Committee Round Two v Carlton at Marvel

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round Two v Carlton at Marvel

Then we can throw back to the media and a responsibility on player mental health and the role they play.
It would be interesting if a young player quits the game on mental health grounds and sues the media for lose of earnings.
It's not like you can't find the proof as its all recorded.

The media certainly fanned the flames but the fire was pretty well lit prior.

If you’ve ever seen the analytics and telemetry they use to see a trend breaking it’s insane.

The best metaphor I can think of is a wave. Like a tsunami rising out in the ocean a social media trend gathers momentum from something like the Weightman frees for eg.

Telemetry picks it up, notifies and then you can get out your virtual surfboard and ride the wave for cash in the form of clicks.

News is irrelevant.

Any chance the club can give us an update on how the Footscray boys went?

It's a secret.

No one is game to leak it

It's pretty shit (well really shit) that the club is yet to provide it's members & supporters a detailed report on the VFL practice game.

They sprout they want to push past 50K members, but the lack of fan engagement is embarrassing.

Supreme benevolent overlord gruppenfuhrer Beveridge won’t allow such insolence ! What if somebody finds out something about what we are up to?

Do you want us to fail??

And using covid as a cover for slack engagement no longer cuts it. The club obviously doesn’t put a priority on keeping the fans up to date.

We received a message from the club on on Friday outlining the process for game day. It was pretty good and informative, however; due to reconstruction work we’ve been shifted from the wing to a pocket (very late we were told this) and at the end of this very long email there was one line that said entry to the room is now via the spectactor bowl not the dining level which we have used for years.

I’m pretty details focussed and I nearly missed it, surely you put that at the top. Wait for the confusion and extra work Thursday night.

I get it’s a little thing but it’s endemic of many small issues currently happening across the board. I’ve fed it back hopefully there’s an update.

I want some hope.

We were largely poor (against very good opposition) in rd.1 on the back of a largely dysfunctional forward line.. there was a comment in the VFL thread that JUH performed well in the practice game so it would be great to hear about his performance as we need some hope that our forward line going forward isn't going to contain the same bodies that were in it in Rd 1.

Totally agree. It's hard to guess changes too xD

I'd bring in JUH, O'Brien, Duryea

Out : Schache, Hannan and Williams. (based on last game Crozier stays).

I'd imagine as a sub for round 1 he's very close to selection.
Cordy may well make way for Marra. Mitch McGovern in no way deserves a defensive forward on him who will touch the only ball 3 times. Marra's 3 touches by contract will probably be a goal, an assist, and a ball to a contest.

TOB will be available so Schache goes forward. If he's going to be terrible at least he has the tank to be terrible by splitting the defenders.

Hannan?
I though he played his role ok. 8 touches and a goal in a dysfuntional forwardline where his off-ball work is more important anyway

I've been a big defender but he was pretty average I thought.

No tackles at all his forward pressure wasn't there. Just running to position isn't enough at times. Didn't take a mark either and only 8 pressure acts in nearly 90 mins on ground.

In contrast VDM got 17 and had 2 tackles and 15 pressure acts they play similar roles and he's copped a fair whipping this week.

Schache for second ruck?
