  1. They have always played that game style Roost it, chipping around in the backline waiting for a loose man but we used to be able to score on turn over so it didn’t matter that they always had a stack of uncontested possessions and marks. What I don’t understand is why can’t we revert to a more close checking game plan when required to close them down allowing opponents to have 17 uncontested marks is ludicrous.😁👍

    DD is that our lowest ever team score? The new game plan is pretty shizen, looking at the coaches box last night didn’t give me any confidence that they have a handle on our situation. They beat us in all kpi’s, they played keepies off racking racking up uncontested possessions in our forward line all night and we were powerless to stop them.

    Thanks DD not sure how we hung in that game for so long, we had 10 of the bottom 12 players on the ground. Fritta and Kozzie both played well but 0.6 between them is atrocious.

    6 - Steven May 5 - TMac 4 - Max 3 - Pickett but wasteful 2 - Jake Bowey 1 - Clayton Tracc & Chin were more than handy, our bottom six really stunk it up.
  5. Like most on here hoping for an ice breaking win but expecting a loss, odds are against us. Will tell us a lot about our season.
  6. Thanks Ollie, Ghostwriter, Harvey Wallbanger and all posters, greatly appreciated. Looking forward to seeing who’s in and who’s out tonight.

    Totally agree Roost it they are only young but Oozze class and outside run that we badly lack, getting Kozzie and Windsor back this week will be enormous but can’t wait to get Judd, Kolt and Lindsay back as well.
  8. Thanks DemonKolt and all posters, did you get inside DK?
  9. I think that Lever and Disco will get a recall this week as well FTB as long as Rick has fully recovered.
  10. Just listened to the podcast and like to thank Andy, Binman and George plus all contributors. A great listen but also very sobering I also was very disappointed with our efforts over the past two weeks so have modified my expectations for the rest of ‘25.

    That would certainly force our hand Macca but we aren’t in that situation at this point in time.

    I’m thinking more long term Roost it far, White will provide one of those three needs if we get him. I would be putting more intensive training into Woey, Bill and Seston this year to try and salvage at least one of them.

    That is true Macca but fortunately we don’t need to turn over 30 players now, we turned over or retired 8 last year and possibly need to retire or turn over another 8-10 this year. We need a KPD, a KPF a Ruck and another Sml Fwd plus quality depth. Then rinse and repeat each subsequent year.

    Try and remember Bluey and everyone else wanting to give away or suggesting that we actually pay the salary of our top end players, get a grip it is round 3. They are coming back from a multitude of issues that may take 6-8 games to iron the bugs out. Oliver is playing so much better than last year, Tracc needs some match fitness and belief, they will all play better as we get all our young guns back out on the park and they rekindle the spark. We just need to keep adding quality each year and replace those that aren’t up for the Fight. We all need to be up for the Fight and get behind the club. 2024 is Over!!!!!
  15. Strange that all the players mentioned that it was a gruelling preseason and that they were feeling really fit. All players have their own individual programs based on the number of sessions completed and our fitness team have a much much better idea of individual and team fitness.👍😳
