Did anyone boo him during warm ups? That would be funny 😄

I don’t know the article cos I won’t pay for their subs. But I believe we need some changes to our game plan. One Is variety around clearances, less long bombs into the f50 and stronger defensive efforts when they are moving the ball from our f50 to theirs. Oh and not kicking to the left edge of the centre square from kick outs ever single time too.

Look, I’m probably not known for the best choice of words when posting… this may be another prime example of this 😂

How’s the mood/feel of the players?

I always wonder about this as at times we do it and others we don’t. Did Max/Goody say not to help and play the ball and not get sucked in?

Yes he should have received the Free. But he also should have disposed of the ball prior to the tackle which then the tackle doesn’t occur. Then the ump doesn’t make the mistake you are all up in arms about. The first mistake was Tmac’s, if he takes first option then none of this occurs. He is a repeat offender of this and that’s why it’s infuriating.

If Tmac did the right thing and disposed of the ball instead of trying to take the tackler on like he always does and fails then the tackle never occurs. Tmac did a typical Tmac blunder by not doing the smart thing. I don’t care about the suspension, the fact is, He took the tackler on, He cost us a free against (right or wrong decision), he cost us momentum and a goal, He made the umpire make a decision. All these things could have been avoided if at as had half a brain cell functioning when ever he has the ball in his hand, He has zero awareness.

But quite often the umps still pay holding the ball even when players get a toe to it or it’s knocked out in the tackle. And the ump obv didn’t think he hit his head. But all of this could have been avoided if Tmac for once played within his limitations.

To those complaining about the Tmac one. The free was deserved for Tmac doing his usual “I can take on every tackler!” Crud that never works. He cost us momentum and cost us the ball for sheer stupidity.

Cats keep closing it to 10, but can’t get a run on.

If you watch the centre square starting points they are pretty much always the same and around the ground we have more numbers defensive side and they usually have a spare on the attacking side. Grundy still doesn’t have the best chemistry with our mids and that’s to be expected tbh, Max has not been anywhere near his normal dominating self post injury. I keep trying to stay positive and hoping we get it right in the last third of the year.

Our coaches cost us that game. Nkt tagging Butters after half time is inexcusable. And frankly idiotic. May kicking in to the same f’ing spot every f’ing time is f’ing dumb. And Yze has been outclassed by other midfield coaches most games this year, sheer talent of Trac and Clarrie paper over this, we get spanked for clearances and like the May kick ins nothing changes. Goodwin, have a look ya nonce, Butters had 40 million touches, you can put someone near him! Tmac, go away. JVR, your over zealous at the player cost us goals. May, never kick in again.

One team plays the boundary out of defence in the wet and they other is us

Another May special kick in to the square where they have numbers and not more boundary side where ours are.

Tmac should never play again.

Thought that might be the case but thanks for the reply.

Agree, I thought JJ in and Harmes to the sub, but they might throw Rivs in instead or a young kid from Casey as a sub. Sometimes in training you see someone in a different position. Would be good to know if that occurs.

With Sparrow out is any other player doing more midfield type work or they doing generic style training today and not position specific.

anyone know the incident? 8 don’t remember seeing anything.

Gawn, Trac, Oliver, Viney, Pickett, May, Lever, Fritsch… yeah…. Nah he wouldn’t. I doubt he would get a game, firstly he wouldn’t suit our work ethic and as a small forward I’d rather chin, Spargo and Pickett.

I’m so glad we didn’t draft Weightman, what an overrated player he is.

Saw that on fox footy, ha ha love the Trac!

JJ won the norm smith going at about 12% efficiency for the Doggies, Saad May do the same one day 😂

Wasn’t trading him to the Hawks punishment enough?

You never had a running game. And I rated your D, I reckon 2 years there when Hawk and Matthews were flying around you were very good.
