666 has changed everything back to the past.

And what about Petracca's missed marks and non contests... when he stands back waiting for the ball to come to him, while his opponent is in getting it, and gone>>>

2 injured and too slow. all ou leaders are running crocs. all hurt.

He plays like a Fu@#!n garden Slug

I'm not worried about one Qtr, or one game. I'm worried about his career. And do you think the pressure being put on him, is maybe helping to emotionally fire him up, at all ?

Thats OK. Spargo still has a lot of development yet, in him. He is a very smart player. We need him around.

This is where Petracca should be... a lighter faster Petracca, with the supposed explosiveness of the mark??? 5 or 6 Kgs off him. and stick him in the middle.

And 'they' better be careful of Us, as well. We're coming our firing too.

Wagner having impacts, as is Lockhart. Smalls are making our team more lively. as needed.

we weren't playing that was the trouble. Now they decided to have a dip, and maybe the bummers thought they have us. easing the pressure off We are away now, and should be able to find some faith again. Our season is just starting now, still rusty, and tactics need a tweak.

too slow to catch on Re 666

They both (Wagners) bring with them some run and carry and mobility, in the new space on grounds.

Even than, he's be too slow with bullet passes as he would have 6'-3" or 6'-4" reaching past him defenders to punch clear. and again once ball is on the ground he is still too slow on his feet His hands are quite good, so IMo, he should be rotating in the middle with Oli.

We must be tanking again.

Sadly, when doing it, we did it all wrong. Just amateurs at that time... when other clubs did it with aplomb, including the Blues, Hawks and Saints during the 2000's... not many clubs did not do it - (list manage), and some clubs did it last season, as well as past recent seasons. see blues, suns. we butchered it.

Yeah, and the rest of the skin on his head, Navy Blue Tattoo...

I think Goody's inviting scrutiny on the players individual games... instead of the 'fugazi' they been bombarded with over the past 10 months. Fugazi splattered over the face and ears, restricts players views and thinkings. Critique keeps the players heads honest, and their feet planted.

Not far, I'm sure, as things have been... but we cannot have a foward-line consisting of, Petracca, Weideman, TMc, and Keilty as well. It would be way too top heavy. One would have to go out for Keilty to be considered. Way more than fast enough. He wouldn't be relied on to get the tap, but he would essentially have to play as a Ruck/Rover, trying to go up against the opposing ruck and to nullify him. And to try to get the ball in the square as well. I think he could do some damage in the role if he was in the right mindset. Big and fast, a lot of opposing mids would be keeping an eye, open for where he is coming from. I think it would be good for our mids to have to learn to operate expecting the opposing ruck to win the tap. This would force our Mids to become more skilled.

I think it also because Tracca is still in the side. Maybe for one last chance to get himself going.

This may have been the reason why he isn't in. We are 0-2... so I suspect they didn't want to go in with another kid, just yet. I wonder if there might be a late change, Re billy.

Thank you Robbo !!! He's just given us all the energy we needed, to fight like Hell on Friday night.

So we're tipping the cats over there, then ? I see your expecting the Crows to turn on themselves again... cutting themselves in 2, once more ? for good times sake ? ?

TMc is better running out from around 40Mtrs to gather possessions, and also when running back into F50. Allowing him to be mobile and unpredictable. He's not really not so good playing the full forward role. Much better at CHF or even Wing. This is why he's off form.

I think the club has heard our comments here, and they are trying to show the clubs Image, in what we deesire. Not so much an overly sympathetic Mcc style. ... but rather a sterner Footy club members & supporters Image, of how WE want our club to be seen and heard. And this is how it ought'a be.

I think he'll be OK after some adjustment. He has spent his whole adult career in a looser club mentality. And has flourished as a player despite this. He will learn imo to raise his standards higher with us. just a long as others who are not in best condition are also made to do likewise. Set the standards Melbourne leaders. Jones'y...
