Absolutely i'll cheer ironically if he misses a mark or goal

Ultimately yes, he's responsible but he’s a premiership coach. If things are stale, or need freshening up then change the team around him. It worked for us when Pert brough in Chocco and Yze a few years ago and it worked for Richmond with Hardwick. And anyways, this could be a very premature conversation because we're early in the season. We're well in the hunt and could well be premiers yet.

BB was playing well before he was injured. TMac hasn’t looked played well in a long time (I don’t count the game against the hapless eagles). We badly need to add a KPF to our list in the off-season

Was hoping bb would come in. TMac looks past it.

Goody is safe. I’ll be asking questions of the assistant coaches.

Depends If he disrespects us in any way (very much doubt he would) then I'll boo i might actually cheer him. For instance, if we're well ahead and he scores a goal late on which is of no consequence I'll probably give him a clap. Edit: Tbh, i don't really care. He's just another oppo player now.

and Mick Malthouse. he still bobs his head every once in a while.

We beat Richmond, Carlton and Essendon (until this year) regularly. We've pantsed North, a team we couldn't beat for years. Hawthorn are our bunnies now. Big 4 is a realistic expectation every year. These are great times we're living in. Now if we could just beat the pies every once in a while...

What a crock of [censored]. didn't even realise GA tickets were available yet.

The key is to be reasonably injury free during the run up and during finals.

I suggest we kill 2 birds with the one stone this weekend. improve our top 4 chances and improve our chances of a high draft pick. Just win this game Dees

Excellent post @Kieren from Canberra. We are in great shape. The FD has really got its act together. I think expectation wise, given the list we have, we should be aiming for Top 4 while we're in our window. Unless injuries derail us which can always happen. Once you get to prelim stage you need the luck. sometimes you can get jumped like Richmond did against the pies a few years back. You can have an off day. injuries, umpiring calls. And the other teams aren't bad either. The pies are the best team in it at the moment. The Lions will be hard to beat as well. Doggies and Port making a case.

We're happy when we're drinking and singing Dub. And complaining about the English.

We tried. Gotta decide now whether it’s worth the time and energy appealing a 1 game ban. Not sure it is. We have a tough game on sat. Rather we focused on that and move on.

he can replace Yze if he gets a senior coach job #dreamteam

Outstanding coach. Will have his pick of jobs. Every team with a vacancy will chase him hard. And the Richmond hoards love him. Doesn't really matter what we think.

Good stuff. No more dishing out dud suspensions to MFC players. We'll fight if we have a case.

Viney went hard at Boak in a contest. Boak was subbed out as a result. The umps actually paid free kicks against Port for blatant blocking of Max. First time I've seen that happen. Wish they'd do it more often. Port always use this tactic on Max. Sometimes it works. sometimes it doesn't. I wouldn't be getting sucked in too much as it benefits Port. Go hard when it's your turn which I'm not sure we're doing at the moment. If we do down the path of softening up some players i suggest we put an X on the back of Powell Pepper and make sure we get a dig in whenever we're close to him. He deserves it.

A lot of histrionics in this thread. It was the same when Maxy got injured.

WC might try to split pick 1 and use their picks on the best WA talent

Going to be a long afternoon for Carlton

Percentage boost for the Hawks

West Coast are putrid. Melbourne 2012-2014 level putrid.
