Pass ??
That we look like we have some semblance of a 'game' that can be improved and honed into a flag winner.
Have said for a bit, 26 is transition.
Want to see improvements in younger players... and minimum injuries all around .
Better fitness
The rest takes care of itself.
It's about installing the fundamentals.
Do that...it's a pass.

Ball starts in the back pocket and rolled out to a player for a ground ball get. Player immediately looks for a cross and the ball is run up the field with a series of quick handballs and longer kicks to players leading toward the player with the ball. Ending with a shot for goal on the run. Very fast ball movement. Players running in waves. 5 or 6 players in white bibs for some pressure.
What is this wizardry, this craft they weave ...

Are least they f'd off the [censored] who created the mess.
Jag need to go back to being Jag.. no evs... totally ICE... actually become the point of difference. Be anti-conformality . Let the Cat roar.

What they have in common they also do not have in common!

7 minutes ago, old dee said: I have noticed in past years it seldom gets done this side of Christmas. Itโs just another example of the AFLโs poor treatment of the people who make the game possible.
This is how hard it is...
Whoever runs the sites, armed with a list provided by the AFL via the 18 clubs of who is now NOT on their list after trade week.
Enter site, select team, select pages, select players page, from list select f,g,k,v,w and a ( whoever are to be deleted ) .. delete... save.
Back out move to next team.... repeat.
20 mins , whole league done.
It's THAT hard.... seriously.
(I'd do it in 10 ๐ )

Yes... most definitely a nod to that probability. We're not daft ๐

Champion Data do that job and the football clubs canโt override that as they have no ability to do so.
Did I blame the club per se ? I said it was pathetic and disappointing it wasn't updated. And again it was. It's not that bloody hard whoever does it to firstly erase the players who have left.....and then install those coming in.
It's hardly rocket surgery is it ?

This is written on the top of the Player Page.
Its not our job or fault.
Red i dont care who's bloody fault it is.... its still pathetic

Itโs not like we would be training in the middle of a race meet. Sure a tunnel would be nice but if that is what the hold up is letโs just pass and build the [censored] thing.
Members of the community can use the existing tunnels to access the middle of the track, players and staff could use a gate and walk across the track to get there.
Yes.. there are no tunnels in the preferred area. Ideally one from the MFC precinct to their ovals.

14 minutes ago, picket fence said: Double down on my comments. Clayton Oliver EVERY BIT AS GOOD!
Today's informative explanation ( perhaps )
There have been and are players, who by and of their own will can impact and determine games. Such is their presence and effect that they , all but seemingly of their own volition, change the course of a game. This is where the term "match winner" is most prevalent.
There are the likes of Ablett, certainly Carey. Players like Judd, Lockett, Voss, Buckley Martin and ( I'll was my mouth out after ) Hird. These players could of themselves mould a game. Id even put our own illustrious Max in among players who can will the momentum.
Clarry is, on his day, a very effective player. No one's really disputing this but his effect has required that other players be complicit.
Personally I've never witnessed, nor am aware of any game that he changed its course. Being instrumental is not the same as being the cause.
Then there are players like Flower. He's that good ( well was ) that he belongs in a very select group. Poor old Tulip played when we at times were.... 'hard to watch' . Robbie often didn't WIN the game but he was the reason it may not have been an absolute drubbing. Those who went to these games will understand perfectly ( imo )
There are others who were truly annoying to play against. Johnston (Dominator) ,Goodes, Buddy, and on. I can't bring myself to include Lethal because hes just a thug.
Oliver, was a favourite of mine because he had a spark and he did bring energy to a game. But to be realistic he was as wasteful as he could be damaging.
Ive no problem ( at all ) seeing him moved on. We will be better overall, as a team, as a result.
One player i do think made a big difference by his exit..... was Gus. Now talking about players that can will a change into a game...well you have to go no further than the big dance of 21. Many will make much of tge bang bang bang but I do invite one and all to watch the game and especially the desperation and determination Brayshaw brought to the game...when it needed it.
As they say... not all superheroes wear capes ๐
Thats it for me... had my say on ol' #13
