Any chance we could prise 2 meter Peter from the bombers?

bills, cowboys eagles

I can't decide whether we're very close or as far away as ever. keep changing my mind. We've got a very good list and with some luck on the injury front no reason to think we can't challenge again. On the other hand, the other finals teams are playing a more corridor-based game. The game has moved on so we need to catch-up. Time will tell if we will. One thing i am sure of. We need to freshen up the assistant coaching ranks. We've gone stale and predictable.

@Wells 11 provided arguments for and against so balanced imo and not all doom and gloom. read the post not just the thread title.

Grundy's had a bad run. An AA ruckman dropped by 2 clubs in consecutive years. i can understand why he has the [censored]. that said, a Gawn injury and he was straight back into a finals team so its a lack of professional not to maintain standards and be ready in case.

Demonland is very fragile at the moment. Getting all worked over commentary in the media. It's just noise mainly. Some fair criticism for sure but nothing the club is not already aware internally.

a very solid citizen and contributor. best of luck to him. Saints would be a good fit i reckon

Repetition. You need to practice practice practice until the act becomes second nature. When the pressure is on you can then fallback on this automaticity and execute.

We’re a tough hard contested team. That flying the flag stuff is last century.

it was a horror call. the process is stuffed and will be changed going forward i'm sure, but at the time the ARC followed their protocol correctly.

Because it wasn’t given a goal there was no time to review. Game had restarted

I agree with Lyon. We coughed up both those games. Yeah we were dealing with some adversity but there is always some to deal with. Better to avoid the the excuses and focus on fwd connection and goal kicking conversion.

If kossie could just get his timing right he'd take plenty of screamers. Bizarre that he can't make the adjustment. Jumps a fraction too early every time.

Poor execution is one thing. players make mistakes. it happens. it's not on purpose. but poor discipline is selfish and stupid. Kozzies indiscipline cost us. he needs to learn. I'm glad Goody took him to task. And Goody should give JVR a spray while he's at it. Badly needed him on Friday night but he was sitting on the pine, suspended. He needs to learn as well.

I'm not Tommo's biggest fan. Reckon his form has been patchy this season. Pushed TDK in the back for carltons 2nd goal. Lost him for the first goal. Trailed behind his man most of the night. Slow and immobile. I understand we need the 3rd tall to free up Lever but can disco play this role instead?

Well they should have waited until post finals to offer the extension then. Reflects pretty poorly on their decision making processes if they are regretting the decision already.

Micah Parsons is a monster.

Not good enough plenty of regrets some bright spots hope springs eternal

I've checking the website all day for an update so I'm glad to hear she's ok

just tell them all to practice their goal kicking

Death riding freos pick. That was great fun. Schadenfreude is very satisfying so a big thank you to freo for that enjoyment

Agree re AFLW but would love to see the pies get beaten. I will enjoy that if it comes to pass

Poor discipline cost us jvr. Stupid indisciplined actions cost us at vital moments as well. channel any angry into the contest. Win the game. There’s no better way to deal with to show your toughness than that.

The learning for me is that good ball users like spargo should play because we don’t have enough good ball users

I don't know. We just seem to tighten up. There's a weight there. I can feel it, the crowd can feel it. There's a mental block or burden there which needs to be overcome. Thats my sense anyway. could be wrong of course.
