  1. Just watched Fox footy where King and Montagna both picked the Dees for the flag. Said the Dees were 18th for moving through the corridor in 2022. Pre season games showed us aggressively moving through the corridor and changing angles to straighten up our attack We will be much harder to play against this year and we will get a good chance to see that in action when we play Sydney in Round 3 - a team we have struggled against for years.
  2. The two practice games couldn't not have gone any better. Good experimentation hard running no injuries. Wins are nice but secondary. We want some early wins as our draw is challenging but its a long season.
  3. The goal umpire was standing behind the post directly in line with the ball. Infuriating that they do this. Often they stand in front of the post and it hits them Clearly they are instructed to adjudicate this way .
  4. Walker was right when he said if it was him kicking Cotchin he would have got a month
  5. Naughton has kicked 10 goals against us in 8 games. Seems unlikely he will crush us.
  6. They haven't finished top 4 under Bevo yet....
  7. Err goals Grundy 3 Gawn 3 Soldo 0 Nankervis 0 Just sayin
  8. We have two monotone footy leaders and one Choco Williams The balance is about right
  9. If the media (and Collingwood) didn't have double standards they would have any at all....
  10. They knew about Angus a lot earlier but were waiting on Jackson to sort out the contractual details (length, front/back loading etc)
  11. Has anyone ever thought that maybe the club doesn't want to disclose too much what its doing? The off season is where you experiment with positional changes, game plans, tactics etc. Is it any wonder that the club wants to keep a few things under wraps?
  12. There would be recent stats about the percentage of goals kicked from the corridor and either side. Logic tells you there must be a higher percentage from the corridor. One of our issues is that we are trying to protect the rebound from our fwd line. Hence the kick to the pocket.
  13. Beautiful.. A joy to watch. Must be a thrill for the young man.
  14. BOWEY PLAYED A LOT OF HIS JUNIORS IN THE FORWARD LINE AND IT WAS ONLY WHEN HE GOT TO THE DEES THEY HAD TO TEACH HIM DEFENCE, Sorry about that couldnt be bothered re-typing.... So its possible they might use him in the forward line at some point...
  15. So we were bottom 8 for accuracy last year. That wouldn't be because we attacked from the forward pocket would it?
  16. Even a Key forward like Charlie Dixon has only kicked 40 goals or more twice in 12 seasons....
  17. Cyril kicked 40 goals or more twice in 11 seasons. Kozzie has done it twice before he is 22 yo.
  18. In 1972, Chinese premier Zhou Enlai was asked about the impact of the French Revolution. “Too early to say,”
  19. Was taken in the rookie draft of 2019. Not sure your enthusiasm is shared by others on exposed form
  20. Perhaps - when they want something. Totally different for an elite sporting club (male) that is seeking grants from 3 levels of government and a major sporting body.
  21. I like the goal kicking drill - running in a straight line, About time!
  22. It sounds like you have never dealt with Government before. There are three levels of government that would be involved plus planning and environmental departments of each. Its herding cats cubed and an unenviable task. And just when you think you may have it nailed, governments change or decision makers change etc.
  23. Are you Tim Flannery?
