  1. Think people are missing the real point we are a one paced midfield and teams know that, we are also poorly skilled by hand and and foot and players who reaction times under pressure is poor, we got away with in 21 going from contest to contest lock it in until we won it now teams move it to the outside as soon as they can. The pies showed that they moved it from one back pocket to to another as quick as they could as they always had a player waiting to create the loose man. If you watch the replay you can see the pies always have 2 player from their forward line no further than the 50 metre arc as they have space to run into where we have all players up near the contest and struggle to get back and then have the pies backmen running forward into the contest and our players running into the contest. As I have said in another post Goodwin either goes back to 21 football and try to win enough games to make finals or makes some bold changes, inject some pace into the midfield by positional changes, play Oliver like DeGoey some half forward line and some midfield etc. As for Max he is the best around the ground ruckman but not a great tap ruckman and what was done by the pies coaching staff was brilliant and other teams have done that as well and we let it just keep going on and on. Those blaming Petty , Turner and co they are up against it from the start balls just bombed in leads ignored ball kicked in to low or high it's called dysfunctional. As for the backline they do pretty well considering the amount of ball that went into it and that shows if the engine room misfires the process breaks down I am sure the break will be a good thing as the spotlight is not on this week but now it's up to the coaches go to the past or be daring and look to the future.
  2. Time to grow up and wishing someone hurt is just childish, as much as it was sad that Gus had to retire he was only one more concussion away last year this year or the following years at least now he can go on to better things in his pursuit of a career of his choosing, Gus is a smart lad.
  3. Yeah let's ban stops because the scratch people, what a load of [censored], first question how many of these injuries have there been since the game began over how many games? Seriously what next ban the meat pie because it will burn your mouth, well not at the MCG anyway just leave the game alone.
  4. I think poita played little league rules....
  5. Rivers doesn't have the composure or football nouse for a midfielder another one that just throws it on the boot when pressured, yes he has got pace but a lot of work has to go into him for that position. Good point, in 21 Oliver was playing more outside than in but his disposal is woeful he either kicks it without looking or it goes higher than length, Sparrow unfortunately is another one who tries to take everyone one on or rushes when pressured. Goodwin either has to stick with the same plan and players or completely change parts of the midfield and try something out of the box, that might mean taking Oliver out of the midfield and move to the half forward line, a bit like De Goey does and go into the midfield in short bursts. But I think Goodwin will stick to what he has been doing and hope we win enough games to make the eight.
  6. Shows what you know about football with that statement his eyes are on the ball trying to punch it football accident.
  7. We have never been a Ferrari just in the right place and right time.
  8. Agreed he did better than I thought he was disciplined all day.
  9. Funny Yze wanted more speed on the ball and that's what he is doing at Richmond, the problem is we don't have a midfield with speed or ball skills overall.
  10. Football incident, and by the way Gus was always one concussion away from retirement doesn't mean I am not disappointed for him but that's just facts.
  11. Well maybe the players are more grown up than some supporters.
  12. See you cannot handle the truth..
  13. Well it's coming home to Roost midfield one paced, players lacking football skills by hand and foot, gameplan is outdated if anybody watches the replay up the ground vision the pies always have players closer to their forward line who unlike us stays high and are unable to get back. Guys like Sparrow and rivers always try to break tackles lack awareness just play on and kick to nothing. As for Clarry for those comparing him to Flower hang you heads in shame another non thinker who just blazes away or hamballs to players in a worse position with no thought about it, the game was played in panic mode from start to finish.
  14. To even say it is childish full stop you said it at least own it.
  15. Just shows what you know about football and to wish someone injured is pathetic.
  16. Childish and tracs injury a football incident move on.
  17. Would be in my side any day. Are you watching the same game have you looked how they are entering the forward line.
  18. Sparrow, River's etc just [censored] their dacks when under pressure they cannot think it through.
  19. Rubbish the game changed all it did was show up a one paced midfield players with poor skill and execution, as for people blaming Petty and co watch the game, the pies always have at least one to two players around the fifty metre in there forward line we have every down the ground and that is why there is no flow into the forward line, it's gameplan pure and simple back to just bombing it in.
