    Anyone have Sparrow in their finals side?

    No been average last few weeks. Viney will replace him. Prefer Nathan Jones

    I don't post much on gameday threads. Wow you're a negative bunch!

    Are we just exhausted? Because these sloppy skills are a big worry.

    New team rule -  don’t let sparrow kick inside 50

    Or Oliver kick for goal

    Has there ever been a more depressing 21 point half time. Team changes and travel last week has to be a factor.

    We are messing around with it. Dropping marks, missing kicks. We are lucky they can't kick straight

    Gee we have some lazy players when we're favourites.

    Disposal has been 💩 in perfect conditions. 

    Strong wind out there. Doesn’t excuse all the kicking but some

    Decision making/execution/game awareness forward of centre is a killer. We need a bowey/Salem like half forward. We cough up what would be simple possession chain goals or set shots kicking or handballing to the wrong spots a lot.

    Could be better, but if you said 21 point lead at half time, I’d take it.

    Better decision making moving forward will be the cherry on the sundae.

    Subconsciously keeping a bit in reserve. Not surprising given the turmoil of the last couple of weeks, and the big games to come.

    Our inability to defend their running short possession game through the middle is almost comical. They’ll lose the sniff in the second half I suspect, but it’s very frustrating, and offers a lesson in how to play us. When our all court defence is right on, it’s harder to execute, but the Crows (again a shadow of their best personnel) are making it look very easy at times. If I were Brad Scott, I’d be liking what I see.

    Max couldn't catch a cold at the moment. His contested marking has gone backwards

    Clarry needs to stop talking about what an ordinary kick he is. It’s becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

    Or he could work on it. Probably doesn’t see it as important. If his hand balling started go awry.....he’d then probably work on his game.

    Oliver a great player but unfortunately the criticism with his kicking is 100% true and and accurate. 

    Its why petracca has passed him. Trac was a sho ker too and did something about it

    Clarry a brilliant engine room player though. Just dont kick inside 50.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
