We have a lot of salary cap invested in a midfield that doesn’t deliver It’s been so for years

Who is our tackling coach?

May pathetic Had an overlap and wouldn’t run

So true

Out marking is useful but not tough i love that he could be an enforcer type fritch aint and the rest of the fwds aren’t scary enough at all Sadly in the modern game if someone bangs their head in a tackle - 3 weeks

I don’t see particularly “tough” I see a fwd who has a defensive aspect perhaps we lack fwd pressure and presence and AJ brings that sheesh having a shaved head and coming from the country isn’t instant tough guy cred for mine low bar backing into packs head over the ball that’s tougher

I don’t think a failed forward is a good role model for our younger forwards JVR would be a good mentor for SW

You didn’t get any impression of a club with culture problems his respect for Gawn was highlighted his injury challenges are discussed above great interview and very likeable guy

Not questioning his skills at all but he gets good quick entries into the forward line which forwards love

Hoges

And hate for Zorko and Daniher

Mind you to be fair we have too many fast small versatile midfielders who can tag the likes of Lachie Neale

Where?

Traded Bedford

I found it interesting apparently Branson explains his success as not be being the smartest guy in the room but consulting and convening the smartest i thought in the context of our President and her ability as a media performer it was relevant to consider her role and need to steer not row also to reflect on some posts and posters

“The Dunning-Kruger (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect) effect is a well-known psychological phenomenon that describes the tendency for individuals to overestimate their level of intelligence, knowledge, or competence in a particular area. They may also simultaneously misjudge the intelligence, expertise, or competence of others. In other words, they are ignorant of their own ignorance.” Is there wide application to this discussion? how many posters have any experience in a governance role or a senior executive role? how many know the difference between a board/ director role and an executive role? A board’s role is to steer not row. the President doesn’t have to be the primary spokesperson for the organisation or negotiate with an employee as suggested here mostly the judgement here has been on the media skills or lack thereof of roffey as if that is the one determining factor in judging a president and at the end of the day CP having courted alternatives stays put!

…To work on his self indulgence!

Cash converters?

Why isn’t this just a win / lose scenario? why would west coast do it?

For a deal to get done both sides need to win we don’t have a surplus of elite mids so the deal would have to fix another problem like a forward who can ruck and backfill for Trac - that is a major challenge A team with a weak midfield but still some tradeable assets for Trac? Which club fits that script?

Underwhelming news

If it bleeds it leads

Real scientific that approach

We don’t know the specifics of the contract why couldn’t the club contract so that if Gawn isn’t available a lesser payment is made? the assumption that we pay the same salary if players play or don’t play - can we assume that?

If he had that in him I’d extend his contract but he doesn’t
