58er

I'll go one better as a midfielder and also a get out of jail firward (Kenny Hunter Carlton style). Also he will be a Melbourne Captain Within 5 years No pressure Riv

ANB fir Harmes or Sparrow msybe Tom

Yes DR D what in the medical / football field constitutes an upset NOT GWS beating Saints who have lost last 4 out of 5 !!!

If he's fit let him run around and get ready fir a Final! Locky for Nev is a must. Tommy fir Browm msybe although Browny leafs well but isn't really a goal kicker Weid needs a big one also.

What's more Tommo minded Cameron for most of the night enough said

Sorry D4life sorry I agree with you re Locky on Tippy

So GWS beating Saints an upset?

Careful what you wish for. Many on here are doing the obvious Looking at Jacks faults And not his strengths. Can I remind You of three of our best wins in the last 4 seasons being Eagles in Round 14 Jacks inspiration was heroic in getting us across the line. He was Easily in our Best 3 in both the Elim and Semi Finals wins vs Cats and Hawks after a long injury lay off. I can't see who in our Club can replace his physicality and agression. Yes he is selfish and I was not pleased agsin last night about this part of his game. But what rules are our mids set to play with? It all comes back to team football and first option and might I say kicking in his right foot more as he is pinged immediately as left side very dominant.

Lockhart not playing is a mystery He has set a standard fir a small backline player and no one else has hit anywhere near it He is part of the May,Lever, Another 3rd tall,Rivers,Lockhart and Hibberd (2021start ) Could be Jordan maybe Replacement Hore for Depth and Petty part time For tall watch. Salem you ask Well I think the sooner Salo gets nearer the forward line the better we will be. He has played some really good football this year at Half back but conversion Is our nemesis and the better and classier our players in the forward line The more we will score and be harder to beat.

No Saints losing to Giants by about 5 goals is best result or Freo beating Dogs. Providing we beat Bombers by 5 goals or more (Saints) or just win no margin (Freo beat Dogs )

What about the 4 flags !!!???

Not sure DrD you have looked at a replay and seen some Goody magic plus other touches. Smith barely noticed means no errors and top job on Himmelberg no goals! Petracca 19 contested possessions out of 23 ! Watch replay and see his work Top game without the flair Fritsch yes is defensive but I'd rather 4 goals! Tommo was on Cameron mark 2020 not 2018 admittedly but great job defensively.

Agree terrible selections Spargo OK Smith NO Tmac gives greater versatility and marking strength Nev ( love him) but can't understand why Lockhart has been overlooked again ??

Why ? It has gifting a game all over it Lockhart should be in (the Last3 in fact need his pace and carry)

That's why Ross Lyon should be our 2021, and beyond with new Assistants Coach Game Plan and organisation of troops miles ahead ! Discipline miles ahead. Record miles ahead

Thanks

What's the 61 you quote Werridee? yes May be a couple but I would keep young types likeBaker Bedford and Dunkley in lieu of Hannan and ANB who ate really not going to inprove much. Lockhart has had a good developmental season and should be playing these last games. his style is what we need run and chase and break lines (like Rivers) . Our developmental coaching is very poor even if Covid training restrictions are factored in. Trac and Locky plus May and Lever ( who have plenty of ability anyway ) are improvements. Jacko and Kossuexwill be good and Rivers Langdon and Maybe Tommo Are stars for the long haul. Dont trade Angus get new coaches. RossLyon eg. And assistants. Be more creative eg Smith forward etc.

Don't agree Both will be better next year agsin its not our defence it's been tight and Petty or another third tall ( not Hore) would be good so Petty can go forward.

Seriously if Petty and Lockhart are not in the best 22 there is very little hope of a better season AND Jordan, Bedford or Baker would be better Options surely than AVB who sadly is only a shadow of his best. At least a couple of strategic trades Viz Zac Williams and say Narkle or similar would benefit the team. Very little culling of the list also looking at Reserves. Smith KK Jets (retire) ANB Hannan have proved this season that They are not up to it. Abd the one big addition that would solve many problems is a new Coach IMO the best available by far is Ross Lyon And he can bring his assistants!! All of them. Then maybe 2021 could be the season we all crave for.

Febes the season is 17 rounds not just 1-4 and as you know teams have good and bad results at different stages of the season. No real excuses but season is nit over fully yet.

Probably not no real base it appears. One if those why let a good story get on the road of the truth. Or did It originate in US where stories are more likely to be lies than Facts.

Excellent post true and so obvious

Sorry Smithy but your complete ruling out of the possibility without reason or knowledge or fact blandly dismissing any hope for consideration or the fact that that Club May wish to recruit him shows no thought whatsoever. Indeed your first remark about you thinking he would be Wanting to be going back to WA Was a wild stab And as ambit as nearly all WA fans think every Player that heads east wants to return as soon as their 2 year recruit contract finishes. Getting with the spirit in this post is not in my opinion what D/L is about in fact it is as you say a diversity opportunity and as such I have Expressed my opinion fairly and reasonably and positively putting fat more accuracy in this topic than your rash predictionwhich is incorrect in the first place and a wild guess in the second. Yes you can state your opinion but if wrong and really Doesn't she'd anY accuracy on the subject it Behoves me to point out the true facts and also place a more positive spin on our aClub in the process. Thxnk you for deciphering me as a troll they 600 odd posts is about 100 a year ie 2 a week really hardly trolling figures of any note.!!!

Wayne That's where figures lie! AVB brave and all is only getting single digit possessions turning them oveR and with his Misapplied aggression is not really in the positive Figures. Look at Clarry and Trac and Their efforts and possessions and as they are in the play all day virtually it's ok as their figures are a plus by a mile. Admittedly Harmes is fumbling and Free kicking his way through 2020 and Kosi is having a dip but misapplied aggression and tackling should be trained out of him now and concentration on going the small things correctly at a slightly reduced speed would serve him better when without the ball.

Can't believe after all the talk of Harleys build up as 2020 was just for prep fir 2021 that he would not be a rookie next year. very disappointing if not and a waste of all they has gone on for 12 months training etc.
