PODCAST: Rd 04 vs Geelong
Just finished listening to the podcast, thanks Andy, Binman, George and all contributors you covered a lot of territory. We are in a lot of trouble but I agree that we need to press on with the new game plan and we need to get a better tactician up in the box, we really do miss Adem Yzeโs management and guidance, especially with a couple of new coaches and I donโt think that learning the ropes is the best way to learn coaching at AFL level. A great listen but so many problems, hopefully getting a few more young guns who can kick may bring us all a bit of joy going forward.๐๐

Kicking Inside 50
Donโt disagree totally SWYL but we missed a number of opportunities and burned a few players due to poor decisions by their teammates.

Kicking Inside 50
The coach or are our players not looking inboard and making an easy pass to a player making space to open up the game, selfish, dumb football. Not rewarding a teammateโs efforts or not trusting their ability to make the kick.

Tom Fullarton
Iโm with the rest of you Tom Fullarton deserves a run of games, Fwd pocket, CHF/Ruck, donโt care who comes out for him. Maybe Disco down back?

TRAINING: Monday 7th April 2025
Big thanks to Ghostwriter, Kev Martin and all posters, sounds like all our young brigade in Kolt, Judd, Jeffo and perhaps Lindsay are ready to play but that is bad news on Rick. Still I would rather him get that troublesome ankle sorted out so he can get back to his best. Some tougher calls this week I hope.

PREGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Petty, Spargo and Sharp were annoyingly poor so all three need a taste of Casey until they show that they are trustworthy. Depending on who is fit I would hope for :- lever / Adamโs for Petts Fullarton CHF needs to be rewarded and we need JvR out of the ruck Brown in for Spargo he runs hard and tackles with intent (10 tackles) Seriously consider Seston and Verall If any of Lindsay, McVee or Tholstrup were available I would have them back in as well.

MEMBERSHIP TALLY 2025
48,401 slowly sneaking up towards 50,000, I thought it would be a significant drop off but not to this magnitude our current form is not helping our numbers. Will be lucky to reach 58,000.

Stats File - 2025 edition
Thanks for your efforts DD it appears that some of our veterans are really struggling with the new game plan do you think JV is more suited to our old crash and bash contest game style. We have an ingrained contest to contest game style and now are looking for a fast transition game relying on a more skilled subset, Iโm thinking the young brigade will adopt quicker than our older players. I think that we need to enjoy the happier environment and now concentrate on getting our fitness and skills up to scratch.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
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 didnโt matter that they always had a stack of uncontested possessions and marks. What I donโt understand is why canโt we revert to a more close checking game plan when required to close them down allowing opponents to have 17 uncontested marks is ludicrous.๐๐

DD is that our lowest ever team score? The new game plan is pretty shizen, looking at the coaches box last night didnโt give me any confidence that they have a handle on our situation. They beat us in all kpiโs, they played keepies off racking racking up uncontested possessions in our forward line all night and we were powerless to stop them.

VOTES: Rd 04 vs Geelong
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.

GAMEDAY: Rd 04 vs Geelong
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.

Thanks Ollie, Ghostwriter, Harvey Wallbanger and all posters, greatly appreciated. Looking forward to seeing whoโs in and whoโs out tonight.

PREGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
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 canโt wait to get Judd, Kolt and Lindsay back as well.

TRAINING: Wednesday 2nd April 2025
I think that Lever and Disco will get a recall this week as well FTB as long as Rick has fully recovered.

PODCAST: Rd 03 vs Gold Coast
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 โ25.
