Wouldn’t be dropping Toby for an Alice Springs game.

Head high tackles
Tracc just said on 360 he wasn’t aware that ducking was prior opportunity and could be pinged for holding the ball. Don’t Coaches update players on new rules?

Weid or Rooy?
Last Injury report was 7-9 weeks, as of last saturday.

NON-MFC: Round 17, 2022
And hopefully playing a home final.

Our kick out strategy
I also enjoy winning. Are you saying that a player making space on the opposite wing or corridor, should be ignored on the kick out, in order to go the usual kick to the left and to a pack? I would love to know the stat of how often we have control of the ball, 70-80 metres out, on our kick outs. I personally think it is madness to not try and create quick ball movement, when it is available. It gives a better chance of scoring, with less defenders able to flood back. I think the current kick it to the pack on the left no matter what, is hurting us badly.

NON-MFC: Round 17, 2022
Not helpful that Tigers play Dockers at G in 2 weeks and have lost both rucks and Lynch. We need a top 2 finish to guarantee home final, unless all Vic teams in top 4. Of course we still need to make the top 4.

What about Gus into the middle and Rivers/Hunt to cover the back flank. Then throw Toby and Lizzie into the middle for a change up, to add pace from the stoppage. TIO stadium games often have players using space to run and bounce. I think pace is important at this ground. Not saying Dunstan doesn’t come in, only that he turns it over too often.

Unfortunately true. That is why Saints wouldn't play him, according to my Saints' mate.

Welcome to Demonland: Jacob Van Rooyen
That won't happen with the current one style kick out to a pack.

Angus Brayshaw Re-Signs Until 2028
Interesting they manage the coach and assistant coach.

Welcome to Demonland: Jacob Van Rooyen
You want Fritsch dropped because he didn’t handball to Petracca in an earlier game and didn’t pass to Langdon this week, who he may not have seen. Well we disagree on that. We agree on JVR, who I think would not be out of place in the AFL, but maybe not this week in the Alice.

Welcome to Demonland: Jacob Van Rooyen
Drop our best marking forward and goal kicker because he missed a pass. Wow that would send a great message to his team mates and also rob us of one of our few forward weapons.

People thinking Fritsch will be dropped this week are deluded.

Our kick out strategy
Joke meter turned off R & B? I was joking.

Our kick out strategy
But if May kicks out to the left and it returns quickly, he is back there ready to do it again.

Farewell Luke Jackson
Cox is Freo CHB and I actually haven't given up on Jacko either.
-
CASEY: Rd 16 vs Geelong
Would they drop Toby for a NT game, when he actually did more than Kozzie/Spargo? I would rest Spargo for a week.

2022 Injury List
He can hitch with the other hand you know.

Farewell Luke Jackson
Maybe Dusty Springfields' "Wishin and Hopin" is more apt.

Lucy, if he wants Freo, they don't have the picks and no point naming blokes that just aren't in the picture. What do you think of my suggestion of Cox and Treacy, as the start of any deal. Cox is a 23 year old, 195cm SA key position defender/forward and Treacy a 19 year old 195cm Victorian key forward who is listed as tough, strong and with great hands. They have a local in Amiss coming through who with the current key forwards are enough for them. Then steak knives of picks, or a ruckman, or maybe even getting Lobb, who would fill needs for us immediately. Getting Cox and with Turner, it allows Petty to maybe move forward or other options and Cox would be there when May retires. What are your thoughts on that sort of deal, if Jacko nominates Freo?
