  1. i tend to agree. That was me last week. i'd love nothing more than dees to prove me wrong. Goodwin to prove that he can coach and motivate his players to start the game well and not get flogged out of the middle. And the forwards to have some pride in their profession to kick straight.
  2. I wonder if we'll kick 7.13, 8.12, or 9.16 tonight
  3. Nah season defining was against GWS. It was all on the line last week. People just didn't realise it except for me. In fact, the top 4 was really lost when we lost to Collingwood based on the fixture.
  4. here's some rocket science. Maybe we kick a low score every week because we miss so many easy shots every week.
  5. We need someone who can kick straight for goal. I'm so over this bloody behind business. We needed 10 points to beat GWS last week which by our standards is 1 Goal 4 Behinds. At what stage are we going to prioritise goal kicking? Gerard Healy mentioned on 'On the Couch' about moving Petracca forward. This would be yet another example of not prioritising goal kicking as Petracca can't kick for [censored] at goal. We can't carry Fritsch, Weideman, Jackson, Gawn, Petracca, Pickett and expect to win games consistently. Every time we miss easy shots we're basically saying 'Here, take the ball, and have an inside 50 to go with it'. I'm sick of it. We either trade for it (which we did with Ben Brown but he can't make the team) or we draft for it. There's a reason that Weightman has gone ahead of Pickett as the best small forward of the draft. He is accurate! Time to start prioritising it because the momentum you lose from a missed shot loses games. Our misses on the weekend were a big reason for our loss.
  6. did we really need to start a new thread just for 1 pic of a good mark.
  7. if he is a straight kick for goal then I'm not against it. We can't carry Weideman, Pickett, Jackson, Fritsch and Petracca and Gawn (when rested forward) who are all bad set shots. (*Fritsch is ok around the body). Mcdonald has also been off recently. We need a dead eye in our team asap. I'M SICK OF BEHINDS!
  8. lol. all these people criticising my opinion and now people are joining my opinion. I'm like the Nick Kyrgios of Demonland. People are so fickle.
  9. it's all because of this [censored] mentality of being tough by pushing trainers away, I'll soldier on mentality. I would've loved the trainer to say 'Jack, you're coming off because you're torching the footy and kicking it blindly out of defensive 50m in the air to a GWS player'.
  10. He played like [censored] yes. And he didn't respect the football in terms of not turning it over. He was extremely loose. He needs to stick to the defensive stuff and either handball or kick long. None of this finessing stuff.
  11. Definitely no need to panic. There's currently an article on the AFL website that says we may struggle to make top 4. What a crazy, negative thing to say. We should all rally together and tell them we don't like their opinion and therefore it is wrong. Thanks for the PM's from all the people that have now admitted that they were wrong and I was right (again) and a week ahead of the mainstream media. I'm also not hearing as much about my Kozzie Pickett projections. hmmm
  12. people talking about grand finals need to have a good hard look at themselves.
  13. huh? People were saying 'we must play Ben Brown'. Then after people seeing that Brown is still [censored] in the vfl retracted those statements really quick. myself included. But we can't play Brown for 2-3 more weeks until he has been consistent in the vfl.
  14. can someone tell me why Petracca, Oliver and Harmes consistently start in the centre square if they've consistently shown to get smashed at clearance? Why have they earned the right? Surely it's time to try different guys there and have Petracca coming off the half forward line or carry off a wing or something. We just can't keep rolling off the same guys expecting a different result.
  15. where are all the people that are like 'we recruited Ben Brown for a reason, he's a 60 goal a year goalkicker' etc. Yeah no. If he isn't doing it in the vfl, he ain't doing it in the afl. So based on today. He'll need a few more weeks out.
  16. In: Brown (for his goal kicking accuracy and nothing else). Out: Anyone who missed easy shots for goal and ruined all chances of gaining momentum.
  17. A bit generous on Mcdonald. As good as he was, his goal kicking undid all of his good work imo. Langdon still got 25 touches too. So I thought he got involved, especially late. Also Jordon is spelt Jordon
  18. 6. Salem 5. May 4. Gawn 3. Jackson 2. Langdon 1. Lever. Yes, Fritsch, TMac and Petracca were good but at the end of the day, their misses on goal lost us the game. I place a premium on goal kicking conversion more than most, and more than the players it seems so they can't get in the votes based on that alone.
  19. Just a shout out to the following: hopeful demon, Dante, Flashinthepan, pollyanna, Drysdale demon, dr.gonzo, AmDamDemon, Garbo, John Crow Batty, Click-bate, Jaded, whatwhatsaywhat, titan uranus and superunknown. I told you all! This is exactly WHY I feel the way I feel. Completely justified by thinking we won't make top 4 and now just wait for all the media to follow Dr.D and start talking about our chances of coming 5th. Hopefully now you can put your complete blind faith aside and be impartial and see the Mac for what we are. A team that you CAN NOT TRUST. Go back into your little hole and justify to yourselves all the excuses you can come up with as to why we lost that game. We have lost to 3 poor teams this year with EVERYTHING TO PLAY FOR. (top 4). We have come out flat in most first halves this year and our goal kicking continues to screw us over. This is yet another example of me going against the grain of popular opinion, analysing our form, our matchups and stating with a high confidence that we won't make top 4. Feel free to PM your personal apologies. Kudos to Roy11 and Cyb for agreeing with my sentiments.
  20. GOAL KICKING U DUMB [censored]!
  21. Statistically the worst goal kicking accuracy club in the comp. Fritsch disgraceful, Petracca the same. I'd prefer you have 15 touches and 2 goals then 30 and 0.2 I'm so [censored] over this [censored] goal kicking. We almost have to put Salem forward as he is just about the only guy I trust to kick straight. Bloody hopeless.
  22. Good job Fritsch and Petracca. You're only as good as your set show goal kicking.
  23. Oh. DR.D, you're so negative. Pull your heads in you biased know it alls! The players are playing the way you think. We've lost to Adelaide, Collingwood and now GWS. Say Goodbye to top 4 officially.
