  1. hearing the echo of rnd 23 2017 ?
  2. Good to hear....dems words Await action
  3. Im not sure...but by golly they found a way ?? ( In spades ?)
  4. Get out your Leonard Cohen discs...and a case of your favourite imbibe
  5. I found myself asking a similar question ....about Tmac. Some strange things occurring.
  6. Weve only triumphed in 2 out of last 7 games up there. And we're as successful after ☹️ Cheery huh
  7. 2017...we lost to Adelaide 2016 we defeated Freo
  8. I find it strange to tell the truth that a fwd pocket sneak ...whos probably capable of 30-40 goals a year in a canter is judged as though he was a back pocket defender. All seems back to front.
  9. Agree..the essentials are there...if not quite there... Other areas need greater attention
  10. And team mates love goals. Smith is an entirely different type to Jeffy ( role ) Just how many do we need to fly for a mark ?? Garlett is an intuitive player... He doesnt fit the new mould that the FD have created. Jeffy knows when zigging is preferential to zagging..A lot of our lot just zag now because they are told to zag....and they all zag in each others way. Jeffy will find it hard to get back in the side whilst some block the door ( and they might not be players ) Jurrah wouldnt get a game today for us
  11. sobering...actually...more likely to drive one to drinking heavily !! We're going to struggle to keep September alive me thinks....and I don't even want to consider any in.......? but that said there's some not playing their usual game
  12. also prescient ( do you have any lotto numbers yo can share ?? )
  13. Gawn: 3 Brownlow votes
  14. Boom...tish !!! Slam dunk !!! How poorly...really...does it reflect on us that a team...its coach were able to so easily peg us ? And part of that ease must stem from the reticence of our coach to change tack. We continually cut off our nose to spite our face.
  15. Not a lot of gain to be had reacting quickly if the other side can run quicker. It just strikes me a lot of what Herr Goodwin utters doesn't gel with the reality.
  16. Jones will never be traded... he's cemented to the club and one of Maccas /Mahoney s fav. Goodwin not about to trade his capt. There are any number that might be enquired of though. I think those getting a DCM are more likely from the ranks who AREN'T being played. StrangER days ahead
  17. And was a very effective spoiler ... unfortunately went better for StKilda than us !! He might run lots....needs to think lots too
  18. Im not pencilling in anything
  19. Mate...so sorry youve had that experience. You've spoken saliently. At seasons end, if not before , some hard choices need to be made....right across the FD...thats staff through all the list. Too many NQR and CBB currently. The ship's heading for a reef currently....and many except most on board can see it. I can see how its hard to get enthusiasm to see a game ....if thats what we get. Cheers
  20. ? Prescient ?
  21. If you understand how it is we WON'T select Jeffy ( and others) you'll go a long way to getting at the heart of the matter. This game ( as have others ) was lost before it started. Its not like we have a rubbish list. We don't. Theres quite enough talent , raw and experienced, to make more than a fist of any game against anyone. So why don't we ? Well...the best of ingredients will still result in slop if you don't have a good recipe...or decent cook......and if you have neither....?? Is it a coincidence that since the seasons mid point we've fallen away ? In a sense it is because its given every other club a good opportunity to see our one dimensional approach and they're all now applying their own form of remedy. Many here expressed concern prior to the game about our structures, about how easy it's becoming to stifle our scoring....and how easily you can counter against our 'defence'.... again all before the bounce. It was like we wrote a script and the game emulated it Our fwd 50 is a mess.....by design ...not the players so much ( though a few dont help things much ) Our back 50 is quite often non existent...as its all up the ground !! Our middle is like a engine roaring away with a stuffed transmission...a lot going on and going nowhere. I have to say it again. Structures, game plan, roles, instructions....this is all the Coachs' doing.
  22. ??? Unlike many others you're off point. There ARE top teams...and we're nowhere near them. Keep it up..i enjoy your humour. You here all week ??
