  1. It was absolutely incorrect.
  2. Tracc might kick the odd great snap, but he is no Allen Jakovich.
  3. I wasn’t laughing at the 50’s. Only one, the Harmes late hit was there. The other two were pathetic made up momentum stoppers and wrong. Kozzie was 20 metres away from Reid as the video showed and BT said and the May love tap on poor little Buddy, who pretended he had been hit with a sledgehammer, was downright embarrassing for the game, as all the ex players commentating on the night and since have said.
  4. Well they are lowballing him and apparently pushing him out the door. They also don’t appear to be desperate to keep Lobb. Obviously dumping salary to get somebody in.
  5. Well one thing we can probably be sure of is, if LJ stays, Grundy is not coming.
  6. Well all the mail has been about Lobb to Dogs and Acres to Blues. That would be a real turnaround and tbh I can't see it happening. I could see the Roos trading pick 1 for the right deal, but that doesn't look like it. If Clarko could get 2-3 players who make their 22 straight away, yes I am sure he would go for it. Logue and Bailey would be a great start, maybe Meek thrown in.
  7. Well Lloyd who coached him said on FC tonight he had poor disposal and guess where his brother works? He knows why he was let go and disposal is at the top of the list.
  8. Would fit right in with us, he has terrible disposal, which is why he has been delisted.
  9. Understandable as you probably haven't laughed for a couple of weeks.
  10. Said he went for dinner on sunday with his girlfriend and ate the "Lion's" share of their shared plates meal. Hope that doesn't cause any outcry from Brisbane. It could be used as the revenge excuse by Zorko, Mathieson and Robinson, for the sniping that is sure to occur in the Semi.
  11. Think you missed the point and the joke.
  12. Laurie is in his second year with us. Yes he had an injury last year.
  13. You mean the one with the high hair.

    Smith will fly against BBB, Gawn and LJ. He is not a leading forward. It would have to be Weid or Tom.
  15. I like it. Tape up a good shoulder and see if we can fool them.
  16. Not convinced. IMO Howes, Chandler and Bedford will get games ahead of him, if Kade and Toby stay..
  17. I am hearing that Setterfield and Stocker may be delisted by the Blues. Would think the Bombers and Roos would look at both.

    Fort will likely replace him. He is a big loss to them, as he does so much more than just take hit outs.
  19. I think you are right. The problem could be that it's not really going to get better in one week, but still, 2 weeks off playing and training is better than playing and risking a disaster with a likely restricted performance anyway.
  20. I think the current problem, with playing certain sides has emanated from winning a flag with a certain method. IMO this has allowed the FD to become sort of arrogant/stubborn, in that they refuse to change the method/game plan/selection in any way to suit the current circumstances, which are different to last year. We don't have a fit Tom Mac. We don't seem to win last quarters. We don't seem to be applying as much pressure and for as long. We are susceptible to pressure being applied to us. Our disposal efficiency is down. Our fitness may not be at the same level as last year. Many players have suffered injuries, or are out of form. We haven't blooded any new players to improve depth experience. Rival Coaches know our game plan and have worked out tactics to deal with our game plan. Rival Coaches have said we are very predictable and their players are coached as to what we will do. We appear to be slower than last year. The arrogance/stubbornness, comes from apparently not accepting that our game plan may not be what it was last year, as a result of the above factors and probably more I haven't mentioned and just sticking to the mantra of "our game plan will win the day if we do it better. " Well maybe it can't anymore, because it has been worked out, or we simply can't do it any better because of the factors above and others. Then again, we could be in a PF after friday night and that is a pretty good result.
  21. Ever noticed why we don’t come back from being behind late in games?
  22. Well we need to adapt to situation immediately and play to interpretation.
  23. Then expect Neale to get 50 possessions.
  24. 2 of the 3 angry Coaches out and hopefully we remove the last one left in the PF.

    I note Longmuir wasn’t scared to play a second gamer in a sudden death final. Amiss did ok for them.
