Ex-Dees in new colours
May Lever Langdon Hunter Grundy Tomlinson Brown Dunstan Hibberd Melksham Schache so we have more 2nd club players on our list than we have lost on the other list. But there could be more at other clubs I can’t think of.

PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
Moore will slaughter Smith, it wouldn’t even be a contest. Seriously, if we have a one on one with Moore as our only option, kick it along the ground and await the contest, at least gives a chance to try and set up the defence behind. If it’s in the air then it will be coming back faster than it went in.

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Carlton
Positives: Win. Clearances were better. Thommo allowed Lever to play his role and McKay was very good, even vs May he would have done well. May, McVee, Bowey, Trac, JVR, Rivs all excellent. Langdon and hunter lots of overlap gut running. Smaller forward line lead to better forward pressure and at times we lowered the eyes, butchered a lot of it, but we tried. I’m against bringing in another tall. Negatives Gawn flopping in marking contests again. It’s embarrassing, stop it. Boweys injury prob means he misses next week. (I assume he was concussed) “Skills” they were putrid and if similar next week we are looking at a 10goal loss. observations Smith I though was ok to poor, and while I’m not a fan of him at all and don’t understand the love he gets, I think he needs to stay in the side and adjust to the AFL game. I think we are much better with JVR, Fritta and ruckman as our talls. Thommor the same, not great but for balance we need the third tall defender and until Petty is back it should be thommo or Schache. Soarrow showed some real bursts of speed which surprised me, didn’t realise he was that quick.

Last year at the 'G...
I was at a festival in Czech Republic and was checking scores, showed scores to a mate next to me, both said we are cooked. A few mins later I saw we had got closer, saw the score tick even closer with little time, kept it open and watched the score go in our fav and elbowed my mate super hard and laughed and laughed and laughed.

What They Are Saying At Princes Park
Don’t forget Daniher kicking a heap without missing when Essendrug were putrid. McKay will kick and min 4 vs us.

Let's try and pin point the actual issue.
Ha ha should have been slide

But if the rest of the team harassed, tackled etc. as much as he does then he doesn’t have to try and do it all. He had more tackles, disposals, pressure acts than Kozzie, Sparta and Chandler and yes a few more turnovers. He is a cog, and important cog and yea he will butcher it from time to time but so did/do the others. And I think all our smalls are suffering from the selection of too many talls. Drop Tmac for a small/mid and watch our game become better.

I’ll defend Nibbler a bit here, the pressure rating each time they showed it was in the elite category. He had some horrible moments but so did nearly everyone, multiple times. He is just an easy target. He at least had a lot of defensive work and tackling that others didn’t. Some don’t show as changers either like Trac running to 50 and blasting at goal when he had three options in f50 he could have chipped it too.

JVR looked good once the long noms stopped and we hit him up. Nibbler played the defensive role up forward and wasn’t bad. Sparrow was decent but took a head knock and missed a big chunk of the game. Agree on coaches need to be refreshed. Viney was sat on again and not seen in the first half. Gawn looks unfit and more interested in playing for frees than asserting himself. Grundy was decent today. Why Kozzie isn’t playing more through the midfield has me scratching my head. Are we overrated. Facts show yes. We once again were flat, had no spark, players weren’t getting to each other like we did. Petty when fit must play down back and right now I’d run with JVR and Fritta as the two forwards then Alice through a resting ruck. We are too tall. Goodwins strength of backing his players and the system is also his biggest weakness.

POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Walyalup
Time to stop persisting with another tall. Fritta, JVR and Gawn/Grundy. That’s it. If he wants to play Tmac or BBB then one of those mentioned has to get dropped. We are carrying too many average players who do too little for far too long. If Harmes plays ffs use him in the best way, he is a tagger, and a good one. If not, play Jordon or some one else. Start searching for a replacement for Stafford so as soon as the seasons done we can sack him and get some one decent in. Yze needs to lift his game too. we prob won’t make top 4 now, or just scrape in, we have about a 5% chance at the flag. We are bog ordinary. Glad I have to work KB cos the filth will slaughter us.

GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Walyalup
Well, nothings changed. We are still living on past glories. Team is defending well and offering nothing offensively and getting slaughtered on fast movement. Should have changed things last off season and got an actual forward coach, Yze’s stocks are falling. So predictable. Freo changed it up at half time, will Goodwin? I highly doubt it.
