  1. This is not a criticism, I'm just curious if you still feel the same about the new rule
  2. How are we supposed to vent now?
  3. I have to admit that I thought the new manning the mark rule and reduced rotations would do bugger all to reduce congestion, but watching the game this season reminds me a bit of how the game was played in the nineties. Just hope the coaches don't find a way to ruin the game again.
  4. I meant to write contested, but yes it's also less congested. The reason I mentioned that the game is less contested is that it probably won't suit us given we play a contested brand of football. A less contested game may also reduce Gawn's influence which is our strength.
  5. That's true but the game is faster now and less contested
  6. Love the rule. Well done AFL!

    Thank you for a kind and considered response

    The thread is about how the game has changed and how it may not suit our list or the way we play

    if the games continue to be played at a faster pace with more of an emphasis on kicking, we're in big trouble

    I very much doubt the coaches will try to turn it into a tactic. Morally it's the wrong thing to do.
  11. I don't see any problem with people predicting we won't make the top eight. Based on the last two seasons it's perfectly reasonable.

  13. We're really scratching around for a half descent forward line...(sigh)
  14. If he gets a contract it will only be for a year. So if it doesn't cost the club much then it may be worth the punt.
  15. Why not? There were no issues during the Big Bash.

    Agree

    People say that every year

    He's been in the system for a while now and it's becoming increasingly clear that he's not going to be the player we were hoping for.

    No great loss

    Surgery, recovery, recuperation, getting back to training, building up match fitness, then trying to find form. He'll be useless for the first half of the season.

    Was on ridiculous money at Greater Western Sydney. Walks away a multi-millionaire
  23. I would imagine being an AFL coach would put a lot of strain on relationships
  24. Well they've changed everyone around him so if we fail next year, there's only one change left to make
  25. Please, please, please be able to kick
