Clint Bartram - We've Got a Fantastic List

"I honestly can't see us not making finals this year because I think we've got a fantastic list.'' - Clint Bartram (Geelong Advertiser)

Good to hear that Clint is upbeat about the season and our list potential - And you have to think that someone in his position would have a good idea about it.

It sounds genuine to me....You Guys?

"I HONESTLY CAN'T SEE US NOT MAKING THE FINALS THIS YEAR" - BARTRAM

 

i work with mainly Blues and Pies supporters , verbal jousting is a daily ritual about the footy but i find it insulting that our own suporters write us off so early. while we have a new coach we shouldnt be compared to the Hawks because ND with all of his faults continued to blood new talent leaving DB a lot more to work with than outside supporters think. if we finish 8th with other Victorian teams finishing above us we could play ( on the basis we win) all our finals at the G. and with a bit of luck and this new mindset..............

Yes....and can someone give me all of the names of the critical players that we now don't have on our list, compared with the '06 list which played off in the final against the Dockers just two seasons ago?

 

I am happy to read that, I for one am glad that he believes that the club should and will make the finals.

This should please Jaded!

Indeed, although there is a whole lot of fluff in the article and not enough "I'm fit, ready for Round 1 and will win the Brownlow soon" :rolleyes::lol:

He's a gem though!

I've read a couple of times how DB has the players sitting regular exams on game plans etc and find it very reassuring.

I've not heard of this being done before in footy (although doesn't mean that it hasn't) and feel that it is an excellent way to ensure that every player knows the team rules inside out. All players will want to do well in these exams with a new coach on board and DB can also pinpoint who he needs to spend extra time with based on results.

Neil Daniher did this kind of thing in his first year in 1998 and a lot of fuss was made about it.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
