  1. Why can Geelong kick a ball inside 50 and hit a target? Why can basically every AFL team do that bar us? Coaching? Personnel? List management? In the last quarter I reckon Geelong hit more targets inside 50 than we did in the last two weeks.
  2. Remember guys, the fitness department primed us for this week...
  3. Still waiting for this theory that we tactically managed our fitness so we could out run the Suns today to come to fruition
  4. Ok, so no coach should ever be binned off if any of their players get injured during the season. You would rather talk in hypotheticals rather than face the facts we have been performing like a bottom 4 side over the last 17 games.
  5. Respectfully, I'm tired of injuries being an excuse for two simple reasons: 1. Every team gets injuries. 2. We've been beaten badly and trending downwards even with a full strength team on the park. Our form line is our form line. If it never turns around, we will finish bottom 4 (After trading our first round selection out).
  6. It's insane to me that we are supposed to be contending for finals and premierships yet we have won 5 games of our last 17 and have suffered 3 of our worse losses since he took over in that time. Are some people really genuinely happy with what they're seeing from this group? The excuse of the way the game is played catching us out is laughable. Why are we so slow to adapt? why aren't we the ones innovating? I said at the end of the last season, someone at the club needs to pull Goodwin in and say if you don't get us in finals you're gone. No hard luck stories, get results. 0-2 to start the year, 5-12 since beating Geelong. It's done in my eyes.
  7. Do you think we can get our pending top 4 pick back if we ask nicely?
  8. This just shows that people would rather complain than turn up.
  9. If Chandler gets 3 goals in his next 3 games I'll donate $100 to the Jim Stynes foundation.
  10. Quick thoughts: - Nobody played well (No Chandler PR please) - Count the broken tackles and fine them a $1000 for each one. - Count every turnover that led to a scoring shot and fine them a $1000 for each one ($2000 if Comben was the one who intercepted it) - Count every attempted fend off or shrug off that didn't break the tackle and fine them a $1000 for each one. - Gawn can't 1 man ruck anymore - 4 seasons with no key forward trades - I'm so glad we traded our first round pick for no reason - Why Langford is omitted for Spargo/Woewodin I'll never know All money accumulated from fines can go to Jim Stynes foundation. Season's over and it's round 2 but what did anyone expect. Our premiership hopes relied on a forward line of Daniel Turner and Jacob Van Rooyen.
  11. Thank you for educating me. I didn't know the coach had nothing to do with the list build.
  12. Barlow had pretty big wraps on him.
  13. Some great content, hopefully more of this going forward.
  14. Windsor, Lindsay and Langford for many years to come 😍
  15. God we have the best jumper in the comp.. 😍😍😍
  16. Cal mentioned that Adelaide are interested in Draper and Langford. Carlton also have interest in FOS and Draper. North seem most interested in Tauru. I think we could very well see Jagga slide to our pick.
  17. Pick 5 you want a point of difference player. I think the guys in the range for that will be Langford, Smith and Tauru. Pick 9, depends on what will be available. I have a feeling North split 2 with Richmond and try grab Tauru. Saints might bite on Armstrong. I'd almost consider Reid if he is available. A future one, two punch of Smith and Reid sounds exciting.
  18. What's everyone got against Armstrong? I'd love Lalor and FOS but those guys aren't attainable. I reckon the idea of a year 4 JVR, year 3 Jefferson and year 1 Armstrong on the books gives us great optimism for a dynamic and functional forward line for many years to come. For what it's worth, Armstrong also looks more ready than Jefferson did.
  19. 5 and 9 in the draft?!? it's like the good old days hey fellas EDIT: Surely, Sam Lalor and Harry Armstrong are who we are targeting
  20. I can find little things to be positive about of course. But man aside from the kids we draft and the kids we have, it's tough to be excited about what's coming. Hope I am wrong.
  21. Considering how bleak the trade period looks, Taylor is going to have to work miracles in the draft. Thanks Brisbane.
  22. They say backflip as if the person who said we wouldn't do a review didn't just resign.
  23. Sorry I've mistyped. Is it revisionism? if the play in general improves significantly and we don't find anything better then aren't we wrong?

  25. What did Goody see in Sparrow that he didn't see in Jordon
