My point, for what it's worth, is you could have made your point without calling posters who hold a contrary view, or a senior coach of a premiership winning team for that matter, a nuffie. I mean, it's not compulsory on the internet to insult people.

Go redlegs

Did I say that? We dominated the pies. We put time into daicos and limited his impact - without having to sacrifice the output of one of our players or allow daicos to drag that player away from the contest. Goody doesn't tag. Take it up with the manager, Karen.

Gotta build a solid foundation before you can renovate

Which is one reason I'm loving all the different modes and methods goody has employed this season n. We have plans A, B, C and D. Mcrae is playing chess. Goody is playing 5D chess.

You'd reckon goody and the other coaches would be loving watching back to back games of our contenders getting the suitcase knocked out of them.

And really, teams have to use the bye period. Too late now.

Do you mean nuffies like our Premiership coach?

Ia that you Garry?

True dat.

Another dose of the flu? They need to look at their control systems for infectious diseases. I've heard colliwobbles can be really debilitating.

Feedback is the new learnings.

Not by me.

Such a similar vibe isn't it. Easier to see when it's not your team.

Blimey, 17-2 in centre clearances. That is unbelievable.

Yeah, maybe.

Garry Lyon - a question. Do you recall the dees beat the pies on kb?

Serious question. When was the last time we were 44 points down half way thru the last quarter?

I'm still confident the pies will come back. Coz, you know they ALWAYS do.

Feet of clay.

Pendulbury has so much time.

Has Garry Lyon realised yet the pies are not leafing?

Lyons 'what we all love about the way the pies play' (ie fast transition linking by hands) is one of their vulnerabilities. It looks great. But creates too many turnover opportunities in tbe heat of super high pressure games. And when tbey do turn it over they get exposed on the counter too often because their defence pushes up so high and with no sweeper.

Coz according to the pie fan boys, you only need to play a season and a half of elite home and away games to be considered a great team or the best player. By the by, on bont, he must be a shot at winning the Brownlow. Daicos has had a brilliant year, but others will take votes off him. And the bont has been the best player by a mile in at least 6-7 games I've seen - and he kicks goals. He is also impossible to miss when he gets it - and can't be confused for his brother!

The other thing is because they are the benchmark, even teams out of finsls contention wantto use them to do an audit of where their game is at. And of course want to beat them. So they get no easy games. It was def a factor for us last year. The other issue they face is a team like the hawks who ate not playing finals dont have dont have to worry about keeping their tactical cards to their chest. Dacois 3 kicks (including a free and a kick out) is evidence of what I mean. The contenders get the benefit of seeing what works against them without having to show their hand.
