Just on Jack Hannath, I've taken this from the Dockers website with regards to their players performances in the WAFL on the weekend.... Jack Hannath – (PT) 13 disposals (8 kicks, 5 handballs) 5 marks, 25 hitouts Jack rucked most of the game with Craig Moller withdrawing. He won the majority of his hitouts and gave Peel’s midfield first use of the ball. We need him to be more aggressive with his run around the ground and put more pressure on the opposition.

It was great to see it thrown back at them when he asked for clarity to the questions. I reckon one of the reporters voice actually started to quiver at on stage. Great to see him so comfortable in these interviews. Now it's time to take that confidence on to the field.

"Watts is not blameless in this situation. He certainly hasn¹t enhanced his status in his short time in the game, and when AFL playing list expert Terry Wallace last year re-analysed the 2008 national draft, he rated Watts a mid-20s selection only." Well FMD. After 4 years Terry 're-analysed' the 2008 draft and places him mid twenties?? Revisionist clown.

No, he's an Individual.

Our team needs to attack more like they did in the first half. They linked up well on several occasions. If they keep in this totally defensive mindset of wearing your opponent like a glove it will most definitely do more damage than good IMO. The boys have to keep taking the game on and backing themselves in as much as being mindful of the opposition. Gotta keep hitting that scoreboard for the lack of confidence issue to be dealt with. Playing man-on-man all the time and being worried about the oppositions score won't breed the confidence the team needs.

Expecting results after just a few days?

Well that's just a wonderful team orientated attitude. We'll go places with that.

Correct. I don't know if its been posted yet but the effort from Jamar when the ball was coming in long and deep into the square at one stage late in the game was absolutely pathetic. He just had to run an extra ten metres to take a grab or maybe force it to ground. Instead he just spectated.The laziest ruckman in the league right now. Needs to move aside as soon as Gawn is fit.

Mitch was our only reliable big man out there today. Jamar and Sellars for that matter are not worthy of an AFL game right now. Let us hope that Dawes will add something to that glaring inadequacy.

It's all good, jazza. Been a while since I've fished over your way. We used to enjoy heading down to Johanna after work and getting anything from gummies to pinky's to big salmon.

jazza, those sorts of jokes should be saved for the opposition. Give it a rest and go and wet a line at Moonlight Heads or something...

Feeling the passion all the way up in the Kimberley region guys. Wish I could make it over. Proud to be a supporter amongst you lot. Give the lads all the support you can. Go Dee's!!

Anderson for Schwab?You're really going to have to identify some positive attributes Anderson would bring compared to Schwab.

If I worked in a job that I absolutely loved that included many of my close mates, but had an absolute [censored] of a boss at the very top (not my immediate manager) that had screwed past employees just to satisfy his own vision and strategy, when it was clearly not working or was clearly in breach and hypocritical of his own bleating regards integrity, would I under perform in an effort to have him removed? Would my fellow employees assist me by also under performing in their roles just to compound the issues - but for the long term sustainability of the team and its efforts? Probably. Whether this is a reasonable analogy or not does not matter. What matters is that after another 4 or so rounds, if we're still getting pumped then Schwab will indeed have been the scapegoat and our Coach will be firmly in the guns breach.

Same old rhetoric?

I still think the supposed game plan is a massive variable in this as well. The players just look they have NFI of what to do when challenged? All of this when we were supposed to building a team that thrives on and dominates the defensive part of the game. Can't we just get the 4 points at training each week when there's no opposition? Neeld seems to think we're so good at training that surely we should be compensated or rewarded for it.

Jamar has lost it. I can't see him ever getting back to his AA form let alone to a standard that is competitive against the rest of the leagues rucks. Royal has got issues right there.

Exactly. Egotistical [censored].

Footy Classified. What a lame panel of commentators. Garry, GTF out of there. You're losing credibility sitting with those clowns.

Very good, sue.

The Chaser boys would be comedy gold in this instance.

Are you for [censored] real?Do you think they've afforded that to us?

Have these articles been pulled by the AFL?

Somehow I reckon Adrian Anderson would have a bit of a spring in his step today.

The only thing that will beat this story so far is the total abolition of tanking allegations against the MFC. Until that happens, today is right up there...
