    Has been told to work on the games he doesn't play in.

    He actually has the highest goal average per game in the VFL.
  5. I am close to crying.
  6. Craig Vozzo on Liam Ryan, Nathan Vardy and Scott Lycett Of course they have.
  7. You did see Hunt limp off? You do know he is out for 2-4 weeks? You still considering him for this week?
  8. In all the games we lost this year, ANB butchered the ball and cost us badly from his few possessions. He also fumbled, dropped marks and got in the way of other players. He was also hopeless in front of goal. Is that his role? If so he does it well. IMO.
  9. You would rather the Captain out than the injured Hunt.
  10. You want JKH out, who had the same possessions as ANB, but unlike ANB who turned over half of them, every one of JKH's were to our advantage. He took a few marks as well, unlike ANB, who dropped the crucial one in the last that may have led to a goal and us close to hitting the lead. That was JKH's best game for us this season and one of ANB's worst and you want to drop JKH, who at least plays footy, in favour of a skilless runner. WOW!
  11. Well if we lower our eyes when entering the F50 and TRY and pass to a team mate, instead of the perennial long bomb, we are a chance.
  12. Maybe, because he said it felt a bit better later in the game and he wanted to help us win the game and make the finals for the first time in 12 years and then if needed, have a rest the next week.
  13. I think Kent for Spargo will also be considered. Quicker, better kick, harder and more experienced and possibly on last chance to show he belongs. Spargo will be a player and he has time. This is a crunch game. The big decision could be Pedo or Weid. Pedo was really poor on sunday as he was in his other game earlier this year. TBH I don't think Weid could do worse and he may even be better as the relief ruck, as he as shown previously.
  14. Yeah but Heeney is much bigger than Pedo, oh wait a minute. We clearly went in with one lumbering player too many. Oh and also one skilless player and one sh-t scared player.
  15. Don't remember the first, but the second was a shocker.
  16. Actually Perth ground 4 metres longer, but no big deal.
  17. They do share the same training ground, not that I know that is the cause. Interestingly however, we are looking to move.
  18. Yes, that is a stat I care about.
  19. Yep he was great on the weekend, with his 10 possies and 4 turnovers and nearly getting Jesse killed, with an easy pass which set up Mark of the Year to his opponent. It was a similar game to his other one earlier in the year.
  20. We know what Garry was trying to say, but it was a stupid comment. ATM we are in the 8 because we have more wins and/or percentage than the teams below us. The same as it has always been. I didn’t know you shouldn’t play finals if you beat the wrong teams.
  21. That has been my footy go to for the last 12 years.
  22. My post was actually rather simple. I was saying that personally I am sick of stats as I am only really invested in one - wins. I have not found it superficial gaining my knowledge from seeing the games and what happened at them and then knowing the result. I know why we lost on Sunday, we missed probably 12 gettable shots. My point is that knowing we had 50% more F50 entries doesn’t make me happy, if anything it makes me angrier. For those happy to invest in their stats, enjoy. If it brings happiness to know after losing a game that we won certain stat categories, who am I to interfere with that. It’s just not for me anymore.
