A particular instance occurred not far from me so got to see the dynamics fairly clearly. Attempting to chip overva weagle to ( can't remember lol ) Ball a little to flat and not enough oomph.. weagle got hand to it. A shame.. He is far from alone in this. Just puts a lot of work to waste By any measure these won't always come off but if you're going to kick cute.... learn how. Again... a big improver. Only first year. But that doesn't mean we can't teach better. Footy is a 1000 little things... this is one.

Dees.. Not Looking to Lose.....

You get the feeling he's just going to bust games open. Another preseason... some more games.. whoarrr.. Will be fun to watch an a headache for oppositions. Go you good Kolt 👍👍👍

Yep... a very good game. Improving. One niggle... needs to learn to weight kicks a little better.. .. it's a small knock... but frustrating sometimes when players uoend a good string/passage with a tur over kick. Again..overall a great game

The only person who didn't think that was Milky's mark seemingly was the maggot with the whistle. Even the weagles thought it was...they,all ,surprised...possibly Jake too but HE thought it was good. Changed the momentum a little too at that moment. Weagles scored shortly after. They shouldn't have.

The diving mark in front of members wing... very impressive. The kid can play... seems quite capable out there.. shows plenty.. and this is the start ?? Promises much.

What did Disco do today that warrants dropping. Certainly showed more acumen than the replacement you suggest.

My framing was neither high nor low but to highlight they are different metrics that are not mutually dependent. Bit like walking and chewing gum

Should really have been 10 marks ;)

You seemingly struggle with parallel concepts. Yes...that was a good win. There were some great elements and efforts. Some...meh.. overall. Very good. Does that put us in the hunt as you desperately want to be. ?? You say yes. I say no... simply because we're not going to be in the 8 come EOS. Reality is reality.. You're describing impressions... wants etc... they are a different thing. You're bowling in the wrong lane if you think one is the other. Btw...can i add utilities to the rent.... cheers

Do you really think we're finishing in the 8 ? I don't. I think we'll play more good footy...but so will opposition. Thats reality. To be in the hunt....means finals. I'll be very surprised. More than happy to keep developing the lads. Nice to know where i live rent free ;)

Best defence ... is attack ;)

F knows I think "F" is the only one ;)

There is a little of this for sure. Win, win well , and there's some momentum and belief... Lose... well.... let's just not go there. A few ( arguably more ) need to pull fingers out. We ought to be much better than displaying. For mine the absolute non-negotiable is a full 4 qtrs of effort. If we even look like "protecting" a lead.. I'll be rabidly filthy.

Seems so 🤣🤣🤣

Be better if it moved...

Depends on scores... not margin alone

Yep... riding it atm ;)

Well, rug up folks... i will be Just want a fluid game that reminds me of cohesion . Bring our best ...that's all If Lions get home we're still in the basement. Let's get a 'game' happening. Let's build . Go get'em Milky. Welcone back. Some semblance of footy nouse back in the lineup with the 2 Jakes ;) Go Dees FOUR quarters !!!

Were last time...

Named on the field v Weagles Welcome back Jake

Interesting view. He is one of the very few that knows how to use his body cleverly and kick to advantage. That said sometimes tge recipient isn't on the same frequency and it can go pearish. I think he's been hampered in past by niggles. That may be part of a logic in running a game out for Casey first. But if he IS fit and raring to go.. i'd let him. We a bit shy on good options atm. Hear what you're saying though.

I personally don't accept the 'conservatism' rationale. We still have runners. A simple edict given to player after player suggesting , " give it all, go for it"... " 'or stay out there after the final siren' wouldn't go astray. A simple directive is all it takes. If we went limp biscuit it's only because that was part of a plan, albeit instituted too early. You only defend a game ( if at all ) in the last minutes....should you be ahead . Otherwise...well , just look at us.

Mentally.... i reckon he crosses onto the pitch and he's good to go.. That's just him. Physically... very much the question. Logic would suggest a run in the magoos. No point being sub ...imho. But for mine tge caveat is a 75% Milshake is still better than some other options.

Agree, but requires more poise coming out of half back towards the arc. A few a too slap-it-on-boot happy. Is this just us devoid of necessary skill, or just poor coaching.. by whoever is in charge of this area ? We seem very unconvincing when we switch back towards the corridor as we get closer to goal. Is this bad habit footy or lack of practice ?
