I will say this slowly because it seems you struggle to understand my post, I said before I answer, I then asked you a question which you seem to not answer at all so when you do that I answer you

It's not my job to do your homework many people here know what I have said on this matter, I also asked you a question which you did not answer. Let's see what happens when you answer my question.

I havre said it all before, so before I answer it why do you think we failed in 22 and against the pies in 23, 69 entries to 37 what does that tell you?

Oh lets play the victim card Jesus I have on that many occasions explained myself if you are to lazy to read them then that's not my fault, and by the way where have I been wrong in 22 and 23 please point it out I will be waiting and as for me not accepting other explanations my suggest you look at yourself first.

it's ok that's your view I don't agree with it, I just don't wear coloured glasses when I watch football we have faults you don't see them, I called it in 22 and 23 so i am interested to see in 24 how we go about it.

Nah they would be stolen or shot down in Crimebourne.....

Hate to tell you good teams make changes when they have to we one a flag in 21 and was bundled out in 22 and 23 in straight sets so do you think they will go with the exact game plan next year then?

Good teams make changes and by the way we didn't beat the pies and we are.

In 21 the game plan was contested football bring the ball down boundary side contest to contest worked well, we then went into 22 with the same plan and if you look it up I said after i think it was round 10 we would not win the flag with that forward set up said the same thing about not winning the flag in 23, sides figured us out but we kept doing the same thing. Which brings me to your second point we did not have any contested forwards to play that type of game plan regarding forward entries, so if it was our inability to execute the game plan who's fault is it then as they say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result, remember we 69 entries into the forward line against the pies to 37 what does that tell you? Whilst adding Billings, Fullerton and McAdam should help I hope Goodwin changes how we move the ball forward I also hope he uses Kossie in a different way and by that I mean like the pies used Hill and Elliot, he goes no further than the half forward line full stop and then leads back and stop trying to take mark of the year all the time. We have a great backline strong midfield but need an outside runner as we are one paced there, Langdon and Hunter need to get away from playing boundary side and create more inside run. but thats the game plan at the moment and I hope it changes and i'm sure it will. In closing we create enough forward entries to win games but need to change how we go about it to win the next flag.

Well I hope they change the game plan the last 2 years of it was our down fall.

All of them, you should know the rules, this time of the year is never fitter, look stronger etc....

Not the way we delivered the ball into the forward line...

The one guarantee in football and picks there is no guarantees in football they turn out like you hope, god knows we have had plenty of them.

McVee should be used as an outside player like the dacios brothers a link up player as for Riv fair point, but has a tendency to rush with his decision making, either way we need outside speed.

Yep it was my bad different post...

Sorry I thought you answered about a post my bad..

Well said, but McVee has the brains, the discipline is a teachable thing but I don't see that as a problem in him as for the hard ball I don't see that in the Dacios boys, he has also played midfield as a junior, he is skilled player, when people were calling Petty to go forward they said he's only a backman now, oh it hurt our chances, Howe was a forward with us where did he end up playing with us, went to the pies as a forward and where has he ended up. Sometimes it's better to try something than nothing at all we tend to put people in boxes and not try anything what's the harm? Trying to understand your last point about being away from the family.

And why not?

Why would that happen you only add to it..

Well need a quick skilled type midfielder we are a one paced midfield...mind you i would give McVee a crack in there.

I doubt that I will agree with you on football matters but on this 100%, well done for bringing to the forefront of peoples minds but at least more men are getting tested every year.

I think going after these three players the club might believe it's no use picking another forward line player or they believe by the time they have their pick none will be available, we also need a quick sized midfielder as we are one paced and need that quickness around the ground. I will interested to see how Langdon and Hunter play their role, both players played boundary side more often than not, which made it hard to become that link type player around the ground for using the corridor for players through the corridor. Regarding you are right about JVR at his age he just needs help not being the main object he just needs to have the 2nd or 3rd defender and stop the 2 on 1 scenarios on him to allow him some more freedom to develop.

Must admit don't know much about McAdam or Fullarton and have only seen the out takes, but but both seem to be one grab players which is a plus, Fullarton might be a better option for Max to work with and as for Billings if fit will be a bonus would imagine Chandler or Spargo will miss out for him.

Rubbish answer, we needed outside speed in the midfield all year and he wasn't used for long periods in games and there is a reason for that he's not built for it take the pace aspect out of it he's not a contested footballer, not a contested mark type and not a high disposal footballer he is an impact player who can turn a quarter but can drift out of the game just as quick. If Goodwin really believed that Kossie could play midfield in every game he would have and he didn't so that must tell you something but I guess not.

Well that's your opinion fair enough but if as you say he has the tank how come Goodwin didn't play him in the midfield during the season in long game time role?
