Back man not Bl........n !

Just let This year take care Of itself Jaded. Thank our luck that Tmac did not find a suitor so he can be a key forward or Blackman as Well. He can interchange with Petty. Weid will get opportunities This year and we hope he also performs up to his best. But I am not sure he is a better forward than Tommy In the team aspect of forward play. He makes room and opportunities fir our other forwards and his physical strength is impressive plus his high marking at the top of his reach. Tommy might also be a better replacement for Adam down back than Petty but I believe It will make Petty giving him first op on the Key Position in defence. We can always flip Tmac and Petty from back to forward and reverse. PS Credit to Simon for pulling the trigger on Sunday plus his move of Jacko to the ruck in the third quarter. We are starting to get some versatile soldiers with ability to influence results let's not let the baby out with the bath water far too soon.

Yes you nailed it Loges. With BBB ( just acclimatising) Tommy (even quiet) The third defender ( or fourth) if you count Jacko it's no wonder that they ran out of defenders viz. Bailey 6 goals and Kossie 3 and about 6 others on the loose kicking goals. Its a team game P2J so don't Go potting BBB in his first game. 2 goals is just about his average by the way and he was quiet but also credit to his opponent. Will have big days like Bailey did and above all each forward and mid are up for scoring. Even Salo drifting down. Total wins and Roles played are the way we will be hardest to beat.

Yes and they never even bought it up in a moment of anger!!

You said it unbelievable didn't even make it in the 3 !

You don't think Fritta and Kossie got goals because of BBB taking the first defender.? He also gave some team play and one just was an inch too short.' Two on his first day a couple of Score involvements and getting his hands in the ball about 6 times was ok for a start. Give him time he might even get a good pass or two. It's about all the forwards as a group also.

You have not thought this through! Looking for a quick fix and not looking at the long term. Petty deserves his chance and was getting his confidence vs Hawks in the second half. Tommy was great on Sat but fir a better team balance we need Tmac up forward. Where this leaves Sam I am not sure but I am convinced the above is the first solution for us to try. OurTeam balance is crucial and Tommy does so much more than either Sam or BBB Fir the other forwards and can muscle his way to a mark or kick.

Really DS Your gut feelings are way off the mark and there was info last week that an offer was very close. Obviously it's not as complicated as you thought. Trac is not a complicated person and knows now what he wants. All power to him He deserves his contract snd the spoils. A boy has grown to a much more mature man in about 3 years. We are ready to embrace our new found attitudes and selflessness and ability. Results on the field have never been more important now we have set strong standards and group ideals. Maybe all the stars are aligning in 2021 and a long wait For success could be nearing its end in the next season or two. Go Dees

Kent not Lent !!!

Really ???, loved hIm in 2018 But too injured and never the same. Frankly saved him from delisting by going to Dogs. Maybe you also want Lent back!!!!' Seriously Chandler should get call up for Baker.

Not BT !!! Gerard Whately !

Agree

Agree completely Billy. Tmac brings a different and more combative game style which helps players our smalls in particular to be a real part of the forward line. Also he marks mostly at the top if his arms outstretched ( BBB does also) and in congested packs. We need him also for accuracy ( Both Weid and BBB are accurate also I admit) but ho can also go to defence if needed. Hail T Mac.

Jacko is a rare beast and refuses to make many (any!) errors.Great game agsin,

I said to myself in the first 20 mins that same comment We were not handling the sep up in class at all well. Made every mistake and fumble in the book and could have been 5goals to nil down at 20 min. Mark. But credit where credit is due we kicked 10.8 to 2.5 in the next 70 mins till 3/4 time to totally control the game. Last quarter was a holding operation done without much fuss and much attention to team ethos and structure till it broke the Tigers discipline level. Just as they may/will recall Kossie was a little cheeky ( didn't mind it at all no backward steps from this new Demon) then we can bank the Tigers lack of Team discipline for future Occasions. Round 2 whenever at MCG will be worth waiting for!

Bloody oath it will have been worth the wait. And when it happens it will be all the sweeter!!!

Leave him for the Blues or Cats!

The resulting Media contract pays fir the Thursday and weekend TV firm Ch 7 and Foxtel. it's a million rupees less than the AFL Start of Round game and plugs a gap on Thursday to at least give AFL viewers a choice rather than a Rugby experience!

No No No Tmac DOES NOT take over Melkshams role. HE continues at CHF and plays as he has done. Mediums and LJ are now in Melky role same as BBB at FF with LJ next to him running around or leading or marking with a small forward in the pocket. LJ is the X factor who can play HF FP or FF if necessary or ruck as required. It may mean Maxy limits his time up forward depending upon the game situation etc.

Jordan should not be dropped ( only managed if necessary ) for Harmes to replace him. Harmesy needs a good 2 game block at Casey to earn a recall as JJ has done as asked from about 70% game time only.

So right Tony 90,000 forget about Covid!!

Lions are more likely to win more H and A games than Eagles as they win away Have already done that with Carlton and Pies. Lions also have last 4 games at home from memory 3 of those are Pies ( in lieu of Covid Easter Eve Game switch to Marvel) Freo and Eagles last round. Eagles will need to win at least 2 away from home In H and A fixture, and need Home games in Finals really. Impossible for them to do a Doggies 2016 as likely all games away!!!

That was Jake Niall That said that !

Give = FIVE

Brown untried at this level??? Give seasons of AFL is hardly untried and played in finals!
