Continue it off! Keep forward pressure up and it's ours come on Dees!

Quarter Dees. Forward 50 pressure and extending attacks has been massive!

Well done Charlie Spargo!

Unlucky Petty

Raining goals!

Gus had to kick that, T-mac had beenin his own for a few good seconds

It's really psychological as well. Up in their 'grill'

What a difference a Max Gawn mark makes hey!

Blueprint shmooprint!

I'd already chalked it and looked down so I missed it. It's a game of inches sometimes!

Junk time

Kozzie if you hear me!

Look alright our pressure in amped up

He'll never be an old man River

Routine Tom

Get in

Need to watch their speed in the outside today.

Need a pep up after Liverpool faltered this morning, come on Dees!

Bombers are brilliant

Bombers are pathetic

Was really hoping 186 would be threatened today. This is pathetic

Yep, fantastic stuff. Will be checking out more of his work.

Excellent take EO. To Mr King or whoever said we were 14th in pressure, we're also 4th in tackles inside 50 and 1st in forcing opposition turnovers. Wonder what they have to say about our mentality there.

Agreed, West Coast's issues started long before the COVID cases.

Sample size isn't the biggest out there, we're all from different eras and have different memories and views but here goes.. 1. Goodwin - Need I say more? 2. Daniher - We mostly hear how good a coach he was since his illness but Neale was the bridge coach for taking us into the professional era. Top 4 first season, Grand Final in his 3rd. Made finals 6 times out of 10 years, fewer coaches than you think were doing that at the time. We had sub-par facilities yet we were competitive for the most part. Several players who didn't realise it at the time have come out since and realised how much of an impact he had not only on their football but their life. 3. Northey - Very early in my footy memory but it was so obvious Swooper was a big deal. Great communicator and really embedded the 'us against them' mentality. We were a laughing stock when he came and that attitude was just what we needed. 4. Roos - Inherited one of the biggest basket cases known to man. It looked like he might have needed to full 5 years to fix that mess but there's no doubt he built the foundation. 5. Balme. Like Flaubert I was younger at the time and thought he was nothing on Daniher but looking back I think he made his mark. That 94 team is still one of my favourites and we played some very attractive footy. Injuries cut us down, the merger was a huge distraction and I won't forget the disgusting treatment of him in Rd 4 97 by the president of that time. The players loved him, maybe to a fault, but he was a true clubman who backed his guys. Initially I would have slipped Bailey in place of Balme, he had a plan and didn't waver from it even when the wind was squarely in his face. He stuck with youth policy and forward planning but unfortunately went too far with that. A horrible, horrible way for it to end. I still wonder if we could have snuck in for finals had 186 just been a routine 5 goal defeat down there.
