monoccular

And de Goey - must be dreaming of Bali or NYC

Yess hate to say it but a poor decision.

They have been the get out of jail specialists this year.

Despite what was said, does anyone really believe that it wasn’t reviewed?? They would have had a lot more second half viewers had the game started at 7:10 and not 7:50 pm. So many neutrals in particular turn off for the second half unless the game is a ripper.

The crux of it is refreshment for ongoing sustained success. We had in effect zero renewal in 2022. Learnings for the coach. Or even Coleman Medalist David Neitz.

Taller, or shorter? (I have never seen him).

Sadly yes. Hope we learn from it - and replenish our list, and even our senior team from who we have already at Casey. And learn to manage a whole season.

So Cats now only negative 12 cumulative points for consecutive PFs.

Last year’s was OK as I remember 🤗❤️💙 Learnings from 2021 PF??

Or Geelong 2021! Cats recovered OK from their 2021 flogging. PS they undertook renewal (and had a soft schedule and managed their elderly players).

Watching the Dees all year I thought there may have been a rule change outlawing kicking to a forward target.

Maybe watching but are there “learnings”?

Another goal from a friggin free to Geelong. Game over. EDIT Hawkins choke.

ABC SPORT digital is in full synch with 7HD Which one?

Does anyone have access to the total number of players we used compared to other clubs? Number of debutants (we had one)? Games missed through injury? I seem to remember these data being mentioned in previous years. And I acknowledge that there are very different reasons that clubs use more (developing lists, struggling on field) or fewer (settled contenders).

When did this happen? He did get some sort of calf (?thigh) injury in the VFL PF.

Didn’t matter much in 2021 Since when was the word wet subject to censorship ? 🤗🙄

Jason of course had a midfield and half forwards who could deliver to a lead - if only ……

but surely only if they offer decent compensation. IF WCE made a far better offer then we do have to look after our own interests first, and he would still be over there near his mum.

I know nothing of Callow, but just saying that chubby young Clayton Oliver has been turned into elite Clayton Oliver.

Let’s hope that they are hurting as much as we here are.

Lucifer. Thanks for that. A good explanation - not an excuse - for our decline. GO DEES

If so, it reflects the ongoing ultraconservatism in our selection regimen. Dynasties are built on continuing renewal

Definitely sums up our season. 🙄 Good thinking. I hadn’t realized just how heavy the load became. I just hope that this years premiership get such a [censored] 💩 schedule next year.

I am sure all this will be addressed but equally sure that much if it will never be made public - for good reason namely don’t signal to the adversary your battle plans. thanks binman - the last few lines sums it up, but still begs the question as to why? IMO it is mainly cumulative low to medium level injuries, not enough to miss a game but enough to impair significantly especially late in a game, rather that an overall failure to prepare type of issue. Now, could / would “resting” these injuries have made the difference? We can never know. And of course there was definitely a “failure of renewal” with only one debutant who only played half a game (and played it well) and very few changes around the fringe players. How many of the list had games, and how many had more than two? Not enough, probably. Looking forward to the podcast as I always do. GO DEES. ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙
