I remember that on draft night JT was very pleased to pick up Bowey and Laurie as they were great kicks with footy nous.!!

We will pass my prediction with an extra 427 members, we are going to get close to that 65,000 membership mark.💕❤️💙

Yep yep.!!

Agree Dundee this is our first real hurdle to be able to respond to the challenges we really need to tweak what we are great at.!!

That is a great report coming off a Premiership next three weeks will be decisive.!!

Hopefully Sam is getting some help from the football department and family and friends to get through this awful situation.🙏💕

I watched Nathan Jones on the DYL and friends podcast last night and you feel his hurt about the years prior to PJ Roos and Simon Goodwin. They changed our environment and culture to such an extent that our kids are now thriving as footballers and people in a safe environment. You can hear it in the voices of our youngsters like JJ and Tommy Sparrow so confident and knowing their role. No more train wrecks for us under Goodwin and his excellent team. Love Goody and what he has bought to our great club.💕❤️💙

I failed to mention Joel Smith and young Howes as mid size talls so hopefully Howes comes on in leaps and bounds next year and how handy would a fit Joel be at the moment. My wish list is for a young ruckman, another tall utility and a young tall mid with clean hands and a big heart even better if he has red hair and can impact immediately.

That is awesome have the whole Team at the G for the Swans game.!!!

That’s a bad plan Dazzle.!!

That how May got concussed as well competing with Lever and Petty for the same ball doesn’t look good when your three tall defenders all go for the same mark and one gets knocked out by his teammate.😢😪

We need Langdon back to his best so it may take a couple of weeks to get him right. I would rather bring Baker in for Melksham as he has a bit of pace and unfortunately Jake is to slow for a winger and we need Spargs in the pressure forward role with Kozzie and ANB. Also Alex take your shots we need our forwards kicking goals not wasting opportunities. You are good enough just do it.!!!!

On a different slant my concern is that we are scratching to fill the holes. Thommo played a great game today so he is an in but who could come in for a JJ or Sparrow or Spargs. Freo have a lot of height in their team that can kick and mark very well let’s hope that Rosman and Turner can step up in 2023. There are a number of sides building height into their teams and that is the area that we need to focus on going forward.!!!!!!

If fit TMac, Langdon and Tomlinson in Out - leave that to the coaches. It was a shame that Majak and van Rooyen were ill today and non of the youngsters really stood up.

I guess those stats reinforce our own opinions that we were poor, a whacking -17.5% below our 2021 average.!! I have to ask the question have our training loads been increased?

In the past 18 months each time we only kick accurately 33% of the time we lose, Dogs, GWS and now Freo. We missed goals that we should have kicked, would normally kick. Freo grew in confidence every time we missed and I thought that their team work got better as did their marking and goal kicking. Time to reset and make a few changes to the team and get our best back on the park.

6 - Clayton 5 - JV 4 - JJ 3 - Gus 2 - Max 1 - Kozzie

Tracc - injured or ill After half time - far from best

Thanks Fork’em we have watched this on a number of occasions how bloody cool and switched on is Simon Goodwin, some great and exciting insights into the game as it progressed.✅✅✅❤️💙💕

Any info on his stature height weight speed??

Maybe the kid knows something we don’t.😀😀✅

NARRM is doing good.!!!

The last two games the opposition have thrown everything that they could muster at us, we kept resetting slowly grinding them down and then kicking away to win comfortably. Very difficult to take advantage of forward 50 entries when they have the bulk of their team in our forward line. Not to mention the questionable tactics like blocking, holding and punching arms that they got away with on most occasions where we had to resort to team brilliance and silky skills to penetrate the mall. At least when you play good teams you have the opportunity to display your skills and team work to full advantage. The good thing is that we have shown that we have the toughness and grit to tough it out until the worm turns our way. Go Dees.!!!!!!

6 - Clarry - (magnificent dragged us over the line) 5 - Lever (playing himself back in) 4 - May - (flew the flag) 3 - Tracc (made things happen) 2 - Sparrow ( tried his guts out) 1 - TMac (plays better when angry)
