In Harmes Way

It's just as disjointed if you ask me.

I think OMac is a good selection this week - both Sexton and King are strong overhead marks and we need two lockdown defenders and Lever intercepting as much as possible. I'd like to see Viney and Hugh Greenwood go head to head in the guts. Give Clarry a bit of space to roam. Not sure Vanders on a wing is a good match for Weller or Brandon Ellis. As with most, very happy with Weid in the team as a 2nd tall, and can't wait to see both Kossie and Bennell in the same forward line. Congrats to Fritter on his 50th game.

Connection though Saty relies on one player kicking the ball to another player who is able to catch it. I don't think 5-10 handballs until somebody is tackled and we turn it over counts.

This thread feels just like the conversation with my in laws trying to explain the difference between mobile data and Wi Fi

Absoultely Agree with the above. We could have had Ben King with Pick 6 - we already had Weideman with Pick 9. Even their graphics showed we absolutely needed to focus on defence based on 2018 stats - didn't rank in the Top 8 for defensive stats for a team that made a Prelim.

The board should ask for financial assistance from the AFL now if they think the members are going to fork over $700K watching that rubbish then they’re living in fairy land

We do need a good striker

Dazzle, the intra club game was 2 weeks ago

I like that Goody's trying to stabilise a best 22 but agree with others on here we should do this with one more tall in the fwd line. And I'm still waiting (less patiently) for a Bennell/Kossie forward line. It's not too much to ask, is it?

If that's the case, then I'd prefer Oliver kick the ball to him, he then stuffs it up as Oliver expects and the coaches then have a basis to drop/educate him. We need to ingrain good habits with all our players - take the right option quickly and hit up players in space.

He expects finals, but presumably he agreed to Goodwin's contract extension? Oxymoron.

Good summary on Footy Classified. https://www.9now.com.au/footy-classified/2020/episode-32?welcome - you'll need to setup an account. At the 35:20 mark of the show, so you can flick past the ads.

Whilst this is terrible, haven't they also lost some or most of the premiership flags? https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/demons-discover-five-more-premiership-flags-are-missing-after-1948-flag-sale-prompts-search-20140724-zwkyn.html

Just like every breakup HFF - It's not you. It's me. Time to remember how to setup ignore.

It’s not big enough. I want one the players can read from Level 4

It wouldn’t surprise me if the AFL gave a chat to the umpires dept this week and request the umpires to call play on more often for the cats 8-15m chipped kicks, which would both open up the game and shut down their system somewhat (and favour the Suns as well)

Getting back to Charlie Cameron, I wouldn't trust the reason anybody puts forward publicly for leaving Adelaide. He may well have wanted a trade "home" to Brisbane, but looking at the [censored] show that is Adelaide, and the way they hung Lever out to dry, you're always going to float a reason that is least likely to rile those in Adelaide when you're at the departure lounge. So I wouldn't automatcally assume he's not gettable. That said, I'd rather we put the money into a KPF however.

Perfect question for Glen Bartlett on Wednesday DL.

Chandler's goal was a cracker and loved Bennell's last two goals. Reward for effort for the last one, following the ball into the 50 and sprinting to the goal square.

I'd swear I was reading the three word analysis from last year's game where we lost by 80 pts.

I'm in two minds with Lockhart - yes I was screaming at the TV when he took forever to get rid of it and was pinged twice for HTB. On the flip side, I thought Joel Smith was heaps better this week with another run when many were calling for his head after last week. That said, if I was Goody I'd drop Lockhart for having a laugh about it with the opposition. That was just not on. Vanders will be better for the run. I didn't think HIbbo and Rivers would do well in the same backline, as I see them as the same type of player; but I was pleasantly surprised. I reckon we need a second tall KPF at Sydney, and recall Preuss did well in that role last time up there (but is obviously not available). Hopefully Tom Mac clunking that mark and goaling in the last qtr will give him some belief. He tried his guts out all day. In: Bennell, Weid Out: Lockhart, Somebody.

I don’t know how many times I yelled out “that’s not 15” for all the 8m kicks by the cats, but I’m still apologising to my dog who thinks I’ve got mental health issues.

Looking forward to some inspired commentary later on Ox.....

I agree with the OP sentiment - we need to keep the trolls + social media platforms accountable. Ongoing education + holding the line will hopefully diminish trolls over time. I'd like to see SM platforms take a lead on accountability - or adversely businesses refusing to advertise on their platforms as money speaks louder than words.
