Second week in a row that Fritter has been a witches hat

The best team we've had in 60 years and only one lock down flag to show for it. What a waste!

In 12 months time we could be irrelevant again. The decline is faster than the rise

In 3 years we've gone from an attacking, fast team with great disposal to a slow, stop and prop team focused upon defence and reaction Goodwin is responsible for this game plan.

Picket, surely even you can see Oliver is sloppy and spraying his handballs and kicks more often than not? He's fast turning into a B or C grade mid

May and Tmac need to start digging the knee into the back of a few Pies. Both teams can be snipers. Let's stop playing nice, chasing football

Looks like the Greeks have done intermittent searching...

He lives next door to you.

I'd like to see Oliver miss 3-4 games, do a mid-year mini preseason. He's clearly not match fit. Get him off KFC, and cherry ripe for the run into finals... if we make them 🤷‍♂️

Don't think he'd be matched against those you name, at least not for a while. He'd be more likely to get 2nd or 3rd tall defender. I think JVR and Petty would get those guys

They probably need the earpiece and mic for score reviews. Possibly for safety issues as well, eg. medical emergencies where play should stop, lightening warnings, etc

User name checks out!

Perhaps players considering a move look at what happened to Grundy and think twice. Simplistic to say, but he was our last big recruit since May/Lever a looong time ago

I thought yours was a statement rather than a question??? So you think with our current list our window is still open next year? No need for FAs or hard trading? Good luck with that!

You're not making sense, Adam. You think that our window is still open, but we aren't a contender and have huge problems? If you read my post I wrote that our window is shut with our current list. You disagree. Time will tell. Let's revisit at the end of the year so I can gloat 😉

We have problems all over the ground, which will increase in the next few years It's fair to say that for a variety of reasons our forward line hasn't exactly flourished under Stafford's tutelage

Name a flag contender with "huge" problems like us? Sydney, Port, Carlton? Freo? Yeah, nah I'll spell it out again... with the current list our flag window is shut. We are 10th on the ladder. If we hit the FA market and trade wisely we might just be in the mix again next year, one 18 yr old top ten pick is handy, but won't be enough. Otherwise we will definitely bottom out over the next 2 years Argue all you like, and no doubt you will, but take the red n blue glasses off and you'll see we are heading towards deep trouble Of course, we could win the next 13 games and blitz through to our 14th 🏆, in which case I'll bear my rrse in Bourke St. Think I'm safe there, but

Time to put Petty back, at least until Rick is ready to return. The experiment is over. Can we stop trying to turn important key backs into forwards? This isn't the era of Nietz anymore Blood Jeffo if he gets through Casey ok I'd even give Oliver a spell for a few weeks. Do a mini preseason with him. We're not doing anyone any favors by playing him unfit. Ditto McAdam

Mac Andrew is a star. Barring injury, he'll be the best tall back in the AFL within 12 months Cannot believe some on here thought he was not worth it in his draft year 🤷‍♂️

And we're robbing Peter to pay Paul by playing Trac as a forward more than mid. He's a star wherever he plays, but we are a very average midfield without him. In three years time we may be without Gawn, Viney and May. And Trac and Lever fast approaching 30. Oliver heading toward C grade. Our flag window is definitely closed with this list. Time to hit the FAs and trade table. Need a ruck (Moyle?), a couple of high end mids with decent foot skills and a key back or two.

No one is blaming the umpires for us getting done. That's on you. But are we not allowed to comment on the standard of umpiring? It's the game day thread, FCS

Did I say that? No. Go away amateur

Freo guy takes 3 steps, Trac tackles, play on!!!! How in hell does the AFL justify these guys?
