  1. That used to be the talk of Monday, the genius/[censored] move (or not) made by the coach.....not any more Now it seems so much more scripted; most rotations seem to be at the behest of the performance guru, who might not even be watching the game. And there seem to be some set rules; if player X goes off, then player Y takes his position and Z goes....
  2. I am fairly certain that Clarrie was on Treloar when he kicked his first, ANB was on the Bont when he kicked his last, Viney on the Bont when he took a pack mark (like really), Spargo gave away an head high to Hunter, not sure of the rest....
  3. Mrs wanted to watch some crap on the ABC so I sat that out and watched the replay. Had some quality problems with the videos so watched the 2nd quarter. With hindsight it was a very good quarter of footy. What I have realised is that the Dogs midfield kicked most of their goals. 7/10. Room for defensive improvement next year?
  4. Tom Scully!!!!!
  5. Well to be honest it is all about relationships and team mates. I assume Howe is happy for TMc. Bevo keeps in touch with some mates from his days at the Dees. If we weren't playing against them I am sure he would happy for our win. I wonder who Scully keeps in touch with.
  6. Michael Hibberd? If it wasnt for a hamstring and an ankle may not have been picked for the GF?
  7. My memory of Big Carl as a demon was Carl throwing a back hander and hitting Kelly O'Donnell in the gob.
  8. Depends on your definition of success I suppose. Geelong are a well managed, very professional club. They have made the most of their natural advantage, playing at Kardinia Park against sides down the list. Furthermore their list over the years has been rather durable. So they are doing lots of things right. But they hadn't added any silverware. Now the ex Cats coaches have resigned and Scott has been given an extension to do what....? Even Scott has said that they have trying to fill gaps for the last few seasons. So long term success, no.
  9. Cats game plan I would assume.....
  10. Yeah right, okay......well its Aliens for me and I'm easily going to pass that. Not sure how to count those little cameos that spontaneously pop into my mind.....
  11. So we have a run on and the dogs defence left Sparra standing unmarked directly in front on the 50 metre arc.....they were doing a zonal defence in case some one tried a blinder from the boundary??? who is their defensive coach?
  12. Can anyone surmise as to what position he was playing when he kicked his big goal and why wasnt any dogs player on him?
  13. Not surprised. The way they treated Stan Alves I hope it continues.
  14. Clubs didnt have a clue on the draft or how to pick players or use picks. (Febey at 250+ games was the most successful? player from the first draft?.) When the Hawks picked Alex McDonald as Nos 1 I remember Jeans saying he was not the best footballer, but the type of footballer they most needed. And remember when the Saints picked 'Jack' Frost? Or when we picked Luke Molan? Picks are no longer used to send a message.
  15. One of the very few we got rid of who went on to ultimate success. From the implementation of Vic Country Zones to the start of the Draft we were terrible.
  16. Is KRock the old 3GL? or similar? if so the prelim final call would be like Bounce of the ball, Stanley up high, Dangerfield clearly held, play on, knocked forward, great defensive work by Henderson,........goal to Melbourne Bounce of the ball, Stanley up even higher, Selwood clearly held, play on, knocked forward, great defensive work by Bews,........goal to Melbourne. Special Comments : I think the Dees have shot their bolt. Repeat
  17. We wanted to keep Cam so got rid of Jnr, and then Cam walked. We were left with our pants down and egg on our face. PJ said one of the first things he had to do was repair the damage caused by getting rid of Jnr. The mind still boggles.
  18. Are you joking?
  19. I was trying to find a definitive reason why a quality side like the Dogs, 19 points up in a GF, got flogged by the MIGHTY DEMONS. Self believe, fitness and exuberance of youth with younger legs were key factors. Not sure about experienced players not declining until 30. Any occupation that requires quick reflexes does not go seeking people in their late 20s. Still thats not everything, the Bont was so slow in getting to his feet that he was in excellent position to kick his 3rd quarter goal.
  20. It is enormous!!!!! 😄
  21. In what seems like another life I was at a Pies/Tigers game at Vic Park - every time Peter Moore went for a mark, Mark Lee punched him in the back of the head. I also remember Luke Darcy punching Woey? so hard in the back of the head I was surprised his noggin didnt end up on the top deck of Colonial Dome.
  22. True Detective - got half way the 2nd series..... Better Call Saul - I was into Breaking Bad but got nearly to the end; I asked a friend how did it end and they said What do you think?, so I stopped. Ozark - yes. (There is a line in there where the wife says she would like to start a new life in the middle of nowhere, Mullumbimby, which is inland from Byron Bay. Obviously the writer has been out that way) Any comedy or sci fi?
  23. on permanent replay on my computer....
  24. I have had a couple of wines or two but Libba is 29, Treloar is 28, Mcrae is 27, Hunter is 26, Bont is 25, Dunks 24 and Smith just a kid Viney 27, Harmes 26, Tracca 25, Oliver 24, Sparrow just a kid, who else do we run through the middle? Now the Dogs are a quality side and I am trying to understand why we won the way we did. I think you can see the difference in the ages. Libba played like he was 29 and it was a shocker. Treloar played a good game mainly because he kicked 3 goals. The Dogs midfield was too old when they came up against the Dees. Add in Jacko at 20 vs English at 24 or Gawn at 29 vs Martin at 34. Our aged players were mainly down the goal to goal line - BB, TMc, (Gawn)....May (and btw thats why I think we need to use pick 17 for a tall).
