  1. The Adelaide loss did finish at night ?
  2. There has been discussion above regarding a “conventional stay home “ and why it isn't a part of the modern game. Just speculating, would it be worth trying Kozzie as an isolated forward even when the ball is deep into our back line? A quick long over their heads forward kick to Kozzie one on one with any defender would be a nightmare. Sort of a “Pagan’s paddock” scenario. Jackson with his athleticism could also be worth a run in this scenario. No defender is likely to run off either player.
  3. I only watched a few minutes and it was non-frees, for throwing and other incorrect disposals, that blew my mind. Every time I watch Geelong they get away with it.
  4. And the AFL would not know consistency if they fell over it - explains the way it has been changed.
  5. Well I hope that this stimulates our guys to pull their collective fingers out and crush the Hawks.
  6. What a wonderful young man to support his mum like that All the beat Fraser (and mum) in all your endeavours
  7. But the family is not being penalised, because Commandant Weimar says they are, now, doing the right thing. Like the last 3-5 day lockdown that went on for 2 or 3 weeks?
  8. Does anyone know if VFL games will be going ahead this weekend?
  9. Or just an ageing team if has been a not up to it. AVB and Bowie - for whom?
  10. I guess sometime the question will need to be asked - when Tommo gets up and about 2022, where do we fit him, Harry, Lever and May in? Harry forward maybe? Would he be trainable as (also) a back up ruck?
  11. The old VFA gave 16 a side away about 50 years ago - I for one never want to see it again. Agree that major rotational reductions would make a big difference to congestion after a quarter Orr two.
  12. He has been described as fat and lazy - hadn't really noticed it before but I did then.
  13. OMG - what a round of turn ups. Hate WCE arrogant fans especially at Optus. Suck it up.
  14. What an awful indecisive spoil in the goal square .... Norf have been in danger of losing the wooded spoon but looking more secure now.
  15. Umpiring reveted to form in the early minutes of Q4 - set up a couple of WC goals. And I reckon Ian Meckiff would have been feeling dudded having been called for throwing, given some of what WCE have got away with tonight.
  16. Just turned on the WCE v NM game - 3.10 vs 3.2 at half time! Wont watch any more of to but sounds a completely uninspiring game.
  17. Only 13 repetitious words - unimaginative, uninspiring and boring. We did lose May early in a vital match against a top key opponent, and won that game and the ones he missed. The umps cost us dearly in the final minutes of the Adelaide game, but seriously we should have been able to wrap it up way earlier.
  18. I feel less morally compromised barracking for Norf tomorrow than for Colonwood today. Just so important
  19. Great result for MFC - BNE % now below ours and 2 games clear. Now we need SYD to beat Geelong to open up the gap. And, not wanting to get ahead of ourselves, but we really need to gain some percentage v Hawks next week (hope that doesn't jinx us).
  20. Truly nice dilemma to have. Harry has played as a forward (?2019?) to some effect, so could be anything.
  21. Daniher is a seriously dumb player. Little awareness.
  22. Maybe SHocking can drop in another dozen rules changes in as he heads down to Kardinia Park.
  23. Yes the maggots let them get away with murder that last 2-3 minutes, but we should never have allowed them to get that close. Very disorganised defence (Salem out for Jetta) and some millionaire moments from our mids.
