A bit of a pattern. I suppose you could blame it on our attempt to play fast football. Fastball is not our traditional strength

Correct.

I don't mind it though. We know we can play lockdown footy, it's the offensive exercution that kills us. Good to get some in game experience in.

Anotehr poor turnover, another tigers goal.

Good contest from verell and great run from Windsor

i'd just like to see no injuries tbh

I agree with you though, there are some bad signs.

But, Koz looks good on the ball, just needs to clean up some disposal. Billings looks like a handy pick up. Roo looks rady to take the next step.

But yes, careless turnovers will the ball are making us look second rate. And that is a big worry. But a lot of them are happening from the younger brigade.

and not putting any pressure on turnover

they're going from d50 to f50 with no one putting a scintilla of effort against em

yes,

but what would your rather. Kids get exposure and a run or lock tha game down in Feb?

Just now, whatwhat say what said:

and this is against a supposed rebuilding side missing its entire starting midfield and #1 forward

not great

I think you need to look at it in presepective though. Lot of young kids and are not as clean as the Tigers on the turnover.

Getting killed on the turnover

About to say the same thing.

Need to clean up the ball movement.

I like Lauies skill and run, but a big question mark for me if he has the body and desire to put on physical pressure.

Pup, how can you not love the kid already, a lot of fight in that dog.

Great composure by son of Dogga Brown Kynan.

Pup Brown?

or Pup?

Roo looks our most likely up forward.

I like Fritsch and Koz as smalls but will need to find a few more big targets.

Wowee way to announce yourself young man

Kynan Brown getting a run on the wing... interesting.

I liked that ball movement. Fast and accurate was beautiful from that turnover.

Oh dear, i am really saddended by this news.

All the best Disco, here is to a quick and speedy recovery.

Some much better forward entries and some good pace on the footy in those highlights.

Playing on inside 50 too which might be an example just to get used to sharing the ball.

Windsor looking more comfortable than I’ve seen him the last 2 Wednesdays. That raw pace could really open things up 

I was excitied by some of the highlights i saw as well. As a trackwatcher DS are we getting a bit ahead of ourselves though, are teh match sims full on or just 13 v 13?

What i mean by that is, it looks pretty now in Feb but come July/August it's cold and the game is on the line the F50 isn't quite so open.

Sounds like houses are burning down in Casey

Could a premiership player who finishes 6th in a a club's best and fairest, after being top ten the previous year, and who has barely mised a game in five seasons, reasonably be considered a whipping boy?

Hasn't stopped us in the past :)

Agree.

I think the wing is his best shot, which means getting past Langers or Hunter (or one them moving to a different role). 

And Howes is also probably in competition for the wing spot, though he could also play at HBF (perhaps taking  Mcvee's spot at HB allowing judd to move onto the ball).

On whipping boys status i think the front runners are (in order) Spargs, TMac and Benny Brown - with a watch on Fullerton if he finds his way into the ones.

Maybe Laurie too if he keeps getting games when he makes little impact. 

Have we dropped nibbler from the whippin boy list?

Go disco

Not a lot spoken about in the media or on this site about this guy.

Was genuinely impressive when he took over from Hardwick and I'm personally excited for a new voice in to the coaching group and a slightly better style of play.

Really excited to see what he bring sro the table for 2024.

Chandler has a family issue in SA.

Salem they're going to progressively load because he had a huge off-season conditioning wise. They've told him to taper it back. 

Hopefully the young fella is ok.
