People are now waking up....

Glad you had a look, it's a small fix that can have a big impact with him, surprised they have not fixed that.

Oh 4 against East Perth under 10's did you watch Casey v tigers an injury depleted side?

Great players like Judd, Greg Williams, Ben Cousins, etc just had that awareness to take a split second to dispose of the pill, Oliver when playing on just kicks it without looking at times that's all i'm saying it's one thing to get 30 -40 possessions it's another thing for them to be effective, I accept that not all disposals are going to advantage but the idea is to lower the clangers that he has.

Yes he is and agree with that, but his disposal lets him down always does things at full pace he needs to slow down before he disposes of it.

Well there is the good, we won, McVee Getting better every game Chandler coming into his own Viney welcome back to late 21 form, makes a big difference when he takes first option Now the bad, Game plan still playing one side of the ground just bomb it down, May tried to kick it to Viney on the other side of the ground, trouble was he had two player on him. Again we just bombed it in to the forward line and expect a different result no wonder JVR and Petty had trouble doing anything early, if people think BBB and Tmac would have made a difference they are kidding themselves. Hibberd, well can this guy have some brain fades the one thing that is concerning, he has a habit of just handing it off to someone in an even worse position or just plays on and kicks it to packs. Oliver, for him to get a higher level he needs to start to think his way through things, just playing on for the sake of it does not help, wasted kicks, handballs to nowhere, but I also put that down to trying too hard to do the right thing. Trac is another one who can pinpoint a pass from know where, but then just kicks the ball without looking and at times, seems to come into the game a lot more as the pace goes out of the game. We will struggle against sides that are able to move the ball at pace if you watch the pies, saints and yes the bombers they have an ability to chip the ball around till something opens up and then go at full pace, we still kick down the line get to a contested ball and if you watch these sides on TV watch the down the ground vision of them transferring the ball it's brilliant. Forward line, it is still a mess, when we recruited BBB he kicked a most of his goals at north on the lead but we still insist on bombing it in, he will struggle to kick multiple goals against top sides or anyone else for that matter unless we change it, but don't hold your breath, JVR is young but there is some talent that will evolve with him, just get someone in to help him with body positioning and forward line play. There is a saying that goes like this, build a wall forward of H/B and you control the game, lions, bombers and pies do that and it showed how we had trouble getting passed it when all the players are in three quarters of the ground. Now we did win but it was against a side with some key injuries but a win is a win and I hope as the season goes on we evolve and tinker with the game plan to make it more effective.

I'm not touching that!!!!

That was May's fault turned his back on Brayshaw instead of taking him out to give him time.

It was happening in 22, injuries have caught up, I reckon this may be his last year if he cannot get back into some decent form, players are just running off him causing a loose man.

Bingo!!!

You mean number 18,28,38,48,58,68,78,88,98,108 Sestan

Well I hope to be proved wrong on kozzie playing midfield.

Must admit not really have paid attention to Laurie, what position would you play him?

My problem with Harmes is his decision making, he has a habit of trying to take everyone on or gives it to a player who is in an even worse position, runs hard when he has the ball but not so much when he doesn't, as for Dunstan I actually thought he would add value but seems to have lost a yard and his disposal has only been fair. My thinking is we have to many one sort of paced players in the guts, Trac, Viney, Sparrow are all one pace players, Oliver has decent pace, kossie is not a midfielder in my opinion yet.

If JVR can fix up his marking technique, he will be one fine player for us, because he has good follow up and likes the contact and that's what's needed in the forward line.

How true, and that is the coaches job to instill confidence, back yourself in, but you are right a football career is a very short one for a lot of players.

It would not have been easy with BBB and Tmac, as it seemed they wanted to play through them a majority of the time and as a young player he might have been a bit intimidating in not wanting to get in the way, so to speak.

I think you might find that I only fire back when posters have a crack first after I post an opinion, but I will take what you have said on board.

lmfao I don't want to cause another discussion.......

Not sure about the last two words......lol

I don't sugar coat it, and will refuse to, if someone writes something that can be debated, well that's good and I like that and the same goes for me, but when you answer with rubbish and you are just negative then that's not a debate or point of view, all you need to do is explain where you think i am wrong and go from there, that's the problem here, I have explained my view of some players but people complain without explaining why or are willing to accept players flaws because they like them.

Not big on stats myself it's what you do with them that counts, unfortunately a lot of his disposals were wasted.

Good summary.

So I gather, seeing you did not answer the question you're not sure either? also I tell it the way I see it if you don't like that block me it's simple not going to bother me.

So you think it was a good game then, and there was no negatives or do only look at the good points?
