  1. Won’t do it again but unfortunately for him, I said it first.

    Its the old problem of having one key tall forward to kick to and he gets numbers back on him. Makes it impossible with the big bombing kicks then. Having another tall like Tom, spreads the defenders and allows one on one contests, which increases your chance of marking the ball.
  3. Does she have to be from Broady?
  4. Would be a great start to a 7 game winning run for us.
  5. Don't get much from anyone else these days.
  6. You heard it here first.
  7. As part of any Jacko deal, I am pretty sure Meek will be included, if we want him and then they will probably look to rookie another.
  8. I am certain we will have 1-2 more rucks to help Max next year.
  9. If that’s true that players are not regarding him as a full team mate, we have a big problem. This could be derailing our season.
  10. Well thought out post. Our answer seems to be, we are not doing what we should be, for long enough and well enough, when we lose.

    Disagree. Pies ran over Bombers in last 10 minutes, with that extra days break. I think nearly every team with shorter break suffered the same thing. The fixed ture has really killed us late in the year. Even the two bottom sides we play twice are Pies and Dockers, while others got Eagles and Roos.

    Absolutely filthy play.

    Sorry didn’t see your post. But we agree.

    Mihocek has a dirty habit of going up for the mark behind an opponent and if outmarked, pulling the guy back, which causes them to fall backwards, often hitting their head on the ground. Just did it to Redmond and did it to Petty, which injured him.

    They did and they are kicking in.
  16. What upsets me, is seeing sides like Carlton and Collingwood, kicking inside forward 50, to guys leading and making space and the kicks going right to them. Skill, practice or Coaching, or all three?
  17. Just saying, but he is 199 cms.
  18. Agree.
  19. I saw Petty on him a lot. I thought Tommy was ok. Played on Bruce and killed him.

    I am stunned at that. Does that mean that we didn’t try to tackle, or just couldn’t get near enough to them? Treloar got a lot of his possessions inside our forward 50 and then set them up to score.
  21. Well the way to get him, is to get into his head we can bring him home for Jacko. He then has to say he is homesick and wants to leave. Even the media would hammer the Dockers, where they refuse him, but demand Jacko be allowed to come home for the same reason.
  22. I think that is becoming our Achilles heel atm. We are being run over late, in games we were ahead in. The fixture and fitness seem the culprits. I am not convinced we will suddenly be fitter than our rivals. The one thing I was hoping for, is that we stayed top 4 and played our first final at the G, where there would be no longer break advantage, or home ground advantage, to our opponent. That is now looking somewhat unlikely.
  23. We are being run over in multiple games, after leading for most of them. Combination of sh-t draw, injuries and clearly fitness. Burgess was a major loss.
  24. Clearly not according to the Coaches.
