Jefferson is in finally, play him for the next four games even if he is poor on Saturday he needs a run at it. Give him the luxury of games to find his feet like we have with Kolt. Kolt has had most of his games playing well for a quarter or two never more than that, give the same opportunity to Jefferson.

No one can remember Dr. As most on here know am no big fan of JVR however I said last year this constantly playing him as second ruck is doing him no favours. Last week he seemed to play most the first half as a forward with 2 goals I would take that every week from a kPF for a first half. Then in the third quarter he looked to spend most of the quarter in the ruck or on the bench. In the last quarter it maybe me but was he on the ground? Are we trying to ruin this guys career? This week he is dropped why? He is a KPF play him there all game. If I was him I would have my agent looking for a new home because the MFC is screwing him.

Someone close to me would agree 100% DP.

Easy Tmac!

Has there ever been a game when he did that JJJ?

Mr Leg isn't bad kicking bad football? I watch my GD's play basketball. The vast majority of games they at min play as well as their opponents and often better but are not as good at getting the ball in the hole. Result is often a loss. IMO if a player is poor at scoring he is a less than a good player. If you are consistently behind at the final siren you are a average team just making up the numbers. We have been doing this poor scoring for the 2 years now ( we are the worst in the competition) it is not a new problem. Until we get players who can convert chances into goals we will continue to be in the bottom half of the ladder. From my observation the majority of players who kick poorly have the problem no matter how much they practise e.g. big Max. You are either a reliable kick wether to a team mate or for goal or you are not. We need to change some players as they imo won't change/ improve.

May zero interest he is rapidly approaching the end. Lever not a lot more he is injury prone. An ageing Tmac played better than him when he was in the team. The last two want out but we have them locked into long term contracts. Oliver would not have many suitors he has too many problems which brings us to Petracca. A very good player but the shine has dimmed a little since his bad injury last year. We need key position players, I would swap for the right deal he is the one of that group who would have a number of suitors.

And then we fell out of bed ghost. Well seperate beds. Hmm both are good for different reasons.

Very good Dingo, you have my comment of the day!

Oh to be young!

I hope not Gw, JVR got 2 goals last weekend that is the best by a KPF for some weeks. Two again from JVR and Jefferson this week would see us win this game. The ground should be dry it will suit tall forwards. We need both in the side for the next month min. Winning should run second to establishing if players have a future in 2026 and beyond. Fingers crossed.

I agree BA. They would be in the top four without ND. Vs the bottom five we find ourselves in.

Jefferson in and I don't care who he replaces. It is probably Milkshake but he is probably in his last season all good things come to an end. Then Petty has been worse than Melksham. Probably time for both to have a rest. It won't happen but lever out for Tmac.

Your enthusiasm brightens my day.

Like you tc I hope he can be a part of the senior team. The is plenty of room for another rags to riches football story.

I know he is hardly AFL standard but I like the way he goes about playing. It would be a great story if he could get back into the senior level and kick a few goals before seasons end. Sadly I think we have to play Jefferson a lot over the next 2 months. If we are going anywhere in 2026 we need him to be a senior level player. 2025 finals are over for us. Let's play a few like Jefferson and Verral. It's time.

Are you off to the GC this weekend Gw?

More than 99% !

That covers it bb.

Sadly I agree with you. I would be surprised if Freo would have an interest.

That doesn’t help.

You keep ignoring one simple fact which in the end is all that matters we didn’t win. After 2 years of the same thing I think we have a problem pattern.

So why are we 14th? In a similar position to last year. For God's sake Nth are only half a game behind us. Remember North they beat us by 9 goals. I will ask again why are we so poor?

It's not individual games now It's not individual games, most sides lose games when they are expected to win we have won 5 games the lions 10. It is over half through the season the Lions are second and cats 3rd we are 14 with a poor percentage. What's the reason PSD?

Well that probably explains our poor form. If Chandler is our most improved player we must have a lot standing still.
