    Only if they see it or deem it as not worth giving but it's no good everyone complaining about the umpires, so what's the answer is the question.

    What is it about people blaming umpires yes they make mistakes, caught on the wrong side to see, think players are ducking ect, the crows blew it themselves in the second quarter full stop wasn't the umpires fault for the turnovers, sloppy kicks and handballs and the pies in the third, while I agree it's frustrating at times, then what's the answer get rid of the umpires and let the captains call it ....lol., they have a hard job, it's a quick moving contact sport, it's not easy to officiate.

    Now only if the club had recruited a leading type of forward to fill that position instead of bombing the ball in and hoping for a pack mark.... oh wait.......................
  4. Bit like Kossie to JVR last night?
  5. Well AFLWL Melbourne side will be stronger for it then.
  6. Didn't know the supporter base played for the club, when did they extend the playing list?
  7. In my opinion kossie is not a midfielder, does not get enough of the ball to do damage, leave him in the forward line but in a different role should never go past CHF, they have to learn to ping the ball around to get it into the forward line in different angles, but we will just keep going down the line.
  8. He was turned inside out though.
  9. Welcome to the club on the forward issue......
  10. Agree with you on on the backline, midfield while very good at times they allow the opposition to dictate a little to much if you watch last night many times cats players were on their own allowing an out, forward line is dysfunctional, no movement at all, even when they tried to transfer the ball they had to slow it down as no one was there to to keep the chain going and thats the problem, players with the ball kicking into the forward line kick it to the wrong side of our players that do lead, Kossie should be watching Toby Greene, knows when to fly and when to stay down and crumb I could go on but will leave it there. Agree Gawn and Grundy is a work in progress, but I get the feeling Max is the one having trouble adjusting to it, but that's only my thought.
  11. May is not known for his agility...
  12. Lets talk about the pies game, we had Oliver and Petty out, the pies had Sidebottom their biggest playmaker, De Goey, Elliot and Ginnivan out and if the rumour is true some had the flu but yes we missed a lot of fairly easy shots at goal but that's bad football. Yes we will could still make top 4 but lets but there is a bit of work to be done.
  13. I said it after round 10 last year that we would not win it and if they don't change they won't win it this year.....
  14. None what so ever
  15. Just like shooting fish in a barrel....
  16. We can tell !!!!
  17. If you cannot see that we are trying to play the same way as 21 with ball movement then I can't help you, what we did is was what the dogs did in 16, right place right time, played the same way in 22 where did that get us, Goodwin had a chance to play BBB is a lead up forward but chosen not to so what does that tell you.
  18. That's because our small forwards try to take mark of the century.
  19. LMFAO this old chestnut, was last years excuse as well?
  20. They have no clue how to play on quickly Gus had the pill Rivers was free Gus took to long to pass it got intercepted, players are lead way to early for the kicker to move back and pass it, players still playing 21 game plan, forward line never moves around to open up a lead, players all flying in packs, and the classic kicking it to Kossie who's a small player way above his head against his opposition player who's about 8 inches taller gee that worked well. The major problem is the forward line an example is in the last quarter the cats players made their forward players run to where they were kicking it to them on a lead we just bring our opponent along with them, JVR needs to learn forward craft "I would get him to talk to Nick Riewoldt on how he played and his thinking" he is not a pack mark player yet, another year doing the same thing to many player playing a defensive role, time to flick the switch.
  21. No they don't that's the problem, ball movement is to slow for that.
  22. Bit hard for Gawn when 20 players all going for the same mark.
  23. Better ask sexyland for some more blow up dummies next week..
  24. It's been like this for the last 2 years, nothings changed.
  25. Oh wait for the, we are the highest scoring team in the comp or the stats are in our favour group to come out....
