  1. A chance. Fancy that. Round these here parts.
  2. It's commendable that we fought it out. But it does bring up why did we not play our best in the beginning. It's the same with our season. We have beaten the.luons at the Gabba and lost by a point to the pies. What gives? Why the inconsistency? Our forward line has probably been the most inconsistent in the comp so that's a part of it. But the rest of the team? Is it a coaching issue? I'm also concerned by our lack of depth. A few youngsters that showed heaps of talent a year ago have really dropped off Hard to see the club playing finals for a while with this current team. The sad thing is many of them won a flag under four years ago. They are not all that old. We used to have the best midfield and defence in the comp. Both have disintegrated. Viney is getting too old although he probably gives the most effort. Oliver....well his disposal is all over the place. Tracc....not sure if he's the same player he was. The good news is we have some great young defenders. Just have to stop playing them fwd. There are players like Sparrow that play every week and you wonder why. Is it down to lack of depth and why? Anyway I don't have any answers. Just that the club desperately needs to go shopping. And to stop picking up players other clubs don't want.
  3. No but he is hands down apart from KP our best fwd . Better than Fritta. He's very inconsistent though. Always has been and why he was never a superstar. Shows occasional glimpses of freakish talent. Losing him in that Swans game cost us another flag. But the fact he's our best fwd at his age is actually a real indictment upon us. Not sure what the future for this club is. It's frustrating. I want someone to blame but I don't who . At least the one on charge of goal kicking is a start.
  4. Salem Lever Oliver Some big stars that no longer are. Sparrow never was. Tracca plays some iffy games. Petty not a fwd. Fritta comes and goes so apart from Melksham turning up we don't have a fwd line. This team is unrecognisable to the one that won a flag. It's interesting because there are still quite a few of them still there. At least a dozen. And they're not all old.
  5. Why the club has let Max fly solo for so long is disgraceful. We have gone from having two premier ruckman TWICE in Jackson and Grundy to Jvr and Petty. Wth? Clearly the club thought we needed two ruckman so why didn't they replace Jackson and Grundy? Probably the same reason we haven't bothered to find another key fwd for three years I suppose. Maybe this is what happens when you win a flag after such a long drought. You think they will rain down afterwards.
  6. Sock of being in positions we we need to comeback. Why do we start some games half asleep? Why do we beat lions at the Gabba and lose to low teams at home? Goody has this team all over the place. The only thing we are consistent in is poor shooting at goal.
  7. GCS midfield makes ours look like little league. Is Kozzie injured? Genuine question. I haven't watched all the game but haven't sighted him lately. I don't question Oliver's work rate but his disposal is at best.....very ordinary. He just seems really anxious to get rid of it and turns it over way too often. Undoes all his effort.
  8. Max has improved his goal kicking which leaves Tracc with the title of the teams worst shot at goal. In all areas. Lucky we don't play him fwd too often.
  9. It has been but it was matched only by our lack of it in the first. Good to see a fightback when the game was almost over. I do wonder why in so many games this year we have been caught napping in the start. Game prep not up to par.
  10. Good quarter. Shame we were sound asleep in the first. The umps were not as heavy on the whistle and it showed. Actually missed a few opportunities with Tracca burning a few but he was good on other areas. Well down in marks but at least we showed some intent finally. Need more from Fritta and Sparrow.
  11. Umpires have a clear bias today. Gcs to play finals.
  12. That is the best piece of play from Petty I've ever seen. I have always wanted to see more of it. But alas, pretty sure it won't happen.
  13. Good tackle Petty but that's the usual poor kicking. Why is he bkggfy smiling? Is that funny?
  14. 38 to 11 marks against us. Putrid and unacceptable.
  15. Week in week out he fails to impact games. Sometimes a fwd just has to go and get the pill no .....matter what. I'm sorry DD but one touch is on him. Totally.
  16. Could be the catalyst today. If this pans out we are in for a 100 point drubbing.
  17. Really. How come he only has one handball...no kicks and no marks for an entire quarter? On track for a game of four disposals...no marks and no goals.
  18. This has all the hallmarks of that Saints game.
  19. Remember when Salem used to give us momentum and drive from halfback? Those were the days.
  20. It's difficult to get excited about games given our season is a bust and Goody insists that Petty is a forward. My real interest and enjoyment is watching Kozzie going from strength to strength.
  21. I'm here for the personal attacks on my character every now and then. And the positivity.
  22. And even the odd goal scored on or after the siren once in a while. One can dream.
