  1. I wouldn’t have played Petty. He has already shown he is not a Ruckman, he has also had multiple foot injuries So I would have played Fullarton and just told him to crack in. I agreed with David’s comments. It was pure arrogance to think we could go in against Jackson and Darcy with Petty
  2. Well Said Ox….
  3. Since ‘21 is the issue. Bedford is thriving, like the rest
  4. A very good Player was TC, i think he lost his position to Danny Hughes. Was always sad to see him play for Footscray….
  5. Oh yes it was a very Tough era, no Doubt. it was a time when the elbow and the Hip and Shoulder were still used regularly as legitimate parts of the game. i do remember speaking to Demott Brereton in Elwood one afternoon, he told me that the 1990 Elimination Final was one of the Toughest finals match he played in. We played them in consecutive weeks and beat them both times. Brutal Footy
  6. “Why You Little” was first used in Warner Bros Cartoons, and where I first laughed out loud as a School kid. Homer used it to great effect in the early series of The Simpsons, when the were seriously violent and a Must Watch!!!
  7. Most games yes. We often put in a 3rd Quarter Burst (3-4 goals) and then hung on to win a Close one. During those years there was also a 4-5 week slump that meant we were fighting to make Finals. But yes overall Northey got the best out of his list I always thought we were one forward short through those years.
  8. This thread is a fabulous read. Kudos to all who have contributed. Yesterday comes down to one thing, Workrate. The boys out there were not hungry enough to get the ball and help each other to dispose of the ball, when we got it. From the first bounce, the attitude wasn’t there. Yes we were up against it, but there was no fight To lose Clearance 16-47 is shocking. It all comes down to hunger. The Hunger to win has been sporadic all Season. That is on Players and Coaches. Look at Hawthorn, they are coming, and they will stay up for a long length of time, because they demand it.
  9. I have no problem with Goodwin talking straight. The trade(s) of Fullarton and Schache have been a complete bust, we are basically 2 men down, Hunter is not far behind them realistically
  10. Our trading of Senior players has been atrocious since 2021 and it is now coming back to bite, very hard.
  11. Success is not overrated. Let’s get that one sorted, the journey to get there can be enjoyed, but please don’t overrate Success I have watched too many other Clubs enjoy multiple years of Success. The year we win it, i am forced to stay indoors during and after the game….
  12. Play him in Defence

  14. Job not being done 😭😩😟
  15. Disgraceful tunnelling tackle not paid that quarter Umpire was right there😡
  16. 4 Quarters of Pressure Demons, is what we need today the job can be done
  17. Dogs should be home now on a wet deck
  18. Shocking free kick to Jeelong
  19. Huge mark from Naughton…

  22. It won’t be long until Haw are seriously back A major concern….
