Saints are now 6-3.   The difference in tactical nous between Ratten and Goodwin is huge.

They’ve certainly left us for dead as a club.

Very sad, but full credit to St Kilda.

    They brought in ready made players in Ryder, Howard, Hill, Jones & Butler over the off-season, all of whom had an instant impact and have played a big part in getting them to where they are now.

    That's not tactical nous.

    Was very frustrating last night watching Nik Nak dominate the taps the way Gawny does but it actually being an advantage to them

    he also took possession of the ball on many occasions and dealt with it in a manner that benefitted his team.

    Have always wondered why Gawn does not do the same as an occasional tactic.

    No, its good recruiting. 

    What he does on game day is tactical nous.

    Dear Gil,

    I've watched (too) many games on TV recently and I have no idea when holding the ball frees will be paid or not paid.  Please explain.

    Yours sincerely,

    Dear Foory Fan

    I have appointed an inquiry to consider this issue. It would not be appropriate for me to comment publicly in advance of that inquiry.

    Respectfully Yours

    Serong is already having an impact on games this early into his career. Looks a future gun mid/forward. Another one missed *sigh*

    We could make a premiership team on players we've passed on to pick others.

    True. Maybe our picks just don’t develop because of the rotten culture they are put in?

    In these bleak times, we can still take enjoyment from Collingwood losing a match they should have won.

    While it is always good to see the Colliewobbles lose, it means Freo join us on 12 points. A draw would have been better. Haha

    They were very impressive Freo. Loved the fight and grit attitude they showed throughout the game.

    They were ferocious. Interesting tactical battle given longmuire had lot to do with the pies defensive systems

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
