  1. They're over complicating a game. Then get bogged down or lost in the minutae. Instinctive players wouldn't concern themselves with any of it as the inherently get what has to be done ( or not ) at any moment. Players that need instructions by numbers are a waste of time imho. There's no time to think, just do. Thats been shown time and time again. KISS
  2. Simples (squeak) Oops...wrong mob
  3. What is the difference between a duck? and ???? 100 pages of gems like this. Oi vey !!
  4. Sounds better than cider. I do like cider. Cant drink Mercury now though lol
  5. Keep ball low. Passing has to be chest-whackers. Fwds to present not wait. Not up and undering. Negate their advantages. If we do this fn useless over handballing then id rathet the team find nearest pub and watch other game. Might confuse Adelaide for a while
  6. I didn't mean to denigrate an otherwise reasoned outlook as to how to tackle the Crows. Be interesting how much might be similar in Goodys effort. But that particular Achilles Heel did stick out.
  7. Look. Weed get the gig by default. Not much to argue. Not much to like. Ball probably unlikely to going in our fwd 50 ( that far ) enough to worry.
  8. I like this...somewhere I used Poise...same thinking. We do a lot of daft things....needlessly
  9. It might also help when 'leading' that as a Captain you dont keep kicking it down the throat of the opposition. I think some others thought this was what you did afterwards !!
  10. Thrice , it's just possible BBO and Diamond are right concurrently. BBO's caveat is the explanation. Further to that I'll repeat the gist off something i wrote earlier: In order to be half a chance Sat evening we need to .... Come out of blocks switched on and accountable, yet to do Not play rubbish football the first 1/2 qtrs , yet to do Play ALL FOUR qtrs , no naps , yet to do Play on road well, not overly known for it Win on the road, again not our forte Beat an arguably superior team.....nupp, haven't done that this year So, being realistic I can't see us getting up. I'm not suggesting an honourable loss is fine, they never are but I want to see us play PROPERLY not like some fumbling clown outfit who only gets going after a good wind up. Adelaide at Adelaide is a hard game even when they aren't travelling too well. If not careful we'll be lambs to the slaughter and then ALL we will see is the cue back in the rack, and the FD trying out everyone to see who to keep and bump up market values as Finals will be a pipe dream. It was generally accepted that we had to make the very best of the first half of the season as it would be harder in the second. We needed that foundation of wins and percentage to assist us through to September. Well that's all gone by the wayside I'd suggest. For what it's worth and I take no pleasure in writing it I think we're about to get a Football lesson.
