chnadler is having a good start to the year

A rare dropped mark from maxy there

pure class melksham

Gotta do better than that May

hospital pass from lingers to viney there

looking much sharper already

2 early touches for langford

We have some good ins and we can't possibly continue to play as badly as we have been for those reasons alone i reckon we will put in a much better performance. whether that's good enough to win i don't know. Our record down there is not good so unlikely but for gods sake can we show a bit of heat and ticker and pride in the guernsey and stop fumbling and executing our skills like we're drunk get it together Go Dees

Spargo has played 100 games. Not sure how that happens if he is not an afl footballer

great player but he sounds like a risk given his knee trouble if we were in the window and thought he could help us to the flag ala ben brown, then different conversation. but given we're in a rebuild phase probably better to take our picks to the draft

I reckon Clarry is the biggest reason our culture is shizzen. He is making a contribution on the field but nowhere close to justifying his fat contract. we won't get much for him but if we can clear his wage and remove a headache from the club I'd support trading him. a shame given his stellar previous performances, but the club comes first. Can't be living in the past

Given Goody has called out the players publicly this is now a huge game. We'll know on Friday night whether he has lost the payers or not. Surely there will be a response.

We have mcvee, Langford, Windsor, Lindsay, kossie (hopefully) etc. plenty to build on. Important trade and draft period coming up for sure but we’re along way from returning to the dark days.

I like this thread. Starting to feel optimistic about this game as well. would be brilliant if we could win at that sh*tpile.

Just got the rising star nomination for the week Well done son.

As much as I have practically lost faith in Goody he will not be removed, if he's removed at all, until close to or at season end. I don't think a caretaker will suddenly change our fortunes (unless we have someone like Longmuir ready to parachute in) so there's no point removing him soon. Let's see how the season evolves. But jeez, the last 2 performances have been putrid so its going to take a lot of work to sort things out.

How are we going to implement a new gameplan which depends on proper skills execution when our skills are terrible. The list was built on contest and defence. we've started adding better ball users through recent drafts but there are still too many poorly skilled players on the list and our forward problems have been there for 3 years unremedied. thats on the coaches. i sincerely hope I'm wrong but we ain't playing finals this year or any other until year without major surgery to this list and coaching team

we really need James Jordons dynamic wing play now. just the man we need to improve our stodgy ball movement. we should never have let him go!

harley reids body language isn't good

jackson looked a meter out of bounds when he took that mark

can;t decide which of these two teams i dislike the most

Great news

I think we should cut JVR some slack. He still young and having the play the KPF1 role with rubbish delivery. definitely worth persisting with in my view

We’ll need to keep some experienced heads around to guide the youngsters but anyone else who we do not think will be in the team for our next flag should be on the table.

Hawks fans i know would prefer if there was less hype. they are still a young team so would rather keep the pressure off for as long as possible.
