With Sydney easily beating Collingwood away, our loss to Sydney doesn't look so bad

Please. No!

There's no way Goodwin is telling the players to bomb it in. Rather it's a symptom of our inability to move the ball quickly or efficiently which creates a congested forward line. When there's no free players you have no choice but to bomb it in.

We finished sixth last year

Did anyone else find it weird watching football this time of year? Feels like it's still summer.

I thought the exact same thing

The "devil" in Tasmania Devils refers to the animal, not the biblical devil

This is serious. The Maynard hit resulted in brain damage.

I've already accepted that it's not happening this year. Something just ain't right

There's only so much bombing to a congested forward line one can watch

Everyone to incorrectly start a sentence with a number

I don't think it's a problem as long the training grounds are full size and at a high standard it should be fine

That's what it sounds like to me

I hope Melbourne supporters don't boo him

I don't think we're going to agree so I'll have to leave it there

But nine new players as dazzledavey36 suggested?

Yeah but dazzledavey36 is suggesting we bring in nine new players who have little to no experience at AFL level

Picking our best team doesn’t mean we falll off the cliff either

Yes it will benefit their development but it means we won't win the premiership next year

But why would we do this? We have to pick our best side and go all in for a premiership while Gawn and May are still at their peak

I said "often" not "always"

Yep. Pointless hypothetical

Best post so far

There's a lot of forward line saviour syndrome around Petty. Defenders that go forward often do well at the start, then they start to struggle.
