  1. Are you sure they are run by the same company?? I'm pretty sure dreamteam is the afl and supercoach is the herald sun... Or are you talking about the people that created and run the software/websites?
  2. Just went past gp on the train and saw about 15 players out on the park. Putting it out there just in case anyone is in the area and wants to take a look.
  3. The sea was angry that day my friends, like an old man sending back soup at a deli
  4. Only been to one training session but im thinking Bate, jetta, watts, bennell, trengove, davey
  5. i thought the desk joke also evolved with the story about lyon and schwab hitting the desk multiple times during the coaching interviews?
  6. Not sure how credible it is but the afl off season Information-trades, delistings and retirements Facebook page, looks reasonable but u just don't know, is reporting that maric, bate also want out like warnock
  7. havent seen jack play but sounds like he is a joel selwood/sam mitchel type, would this be around the mark?
  8. Also the date Jimmy ran across the mark
  9. wow, wonder how long they have been pracicing that for
  10. I went, i go every year as my partner is a geelong supporter. I normally sit through all the horrible losses right till the end, have done so many times over the last 3 years but i just couldn't do it today. it was just too hard. We left at 3/4 time and listened to it on the radio for the drive home. still feel gutted
  11. Sen said he was sick. They didn't elaborate much though
  12. http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/117979/default.aspx so close deefella 36,937 is our final figure
  13. While I don't take to much from what Barrett says I did find it interesting they said a deadline has probably been put to scully like ward. Would somewhat hamper his waiting till the end of the season approach even if it is just verbal.
  14. ^ In the HUN was cox and kerr second
  15. I didn’t go today but went on the QB. I didn’t hear anybody booing him but what I didn’t like was the eerie silence after his mark and while he was lining up for a goal. There was no cheering or affection from the supporters just a very large murmuring sound as if all 70+ thousand just started talking about him behind his back. If I was him and felt no love from the supporters, got booed playing my heart out and was having all these negative things said about me (just read through the 34 previous pages for examples) why not seriously consider moving. It’s not like where really giving him the same support as others. If anything I think the majority of supporters are helping push him out the door rather than make him feel appreciated. spelling...
  16. Hey guys, been reading for a couple of years but as a member on the younger side never really felt a need to contribute as someone would usually have the same view as myself but with more background knowledge, anyway introductions aside I am a fan of bailey and his development but if this is true it gets me really agitated. I have only been too a few training sessions normally at the start of the season so I don’t know much but have to agree that there isn’t an obvious urgency with regard to those same components as Collingwood. The necessity to have every player know there place and what to do with and without the ball to me just doesn’t seam as urgent. My girlfriend is a Geelong supporter and having seen them train too I get a whole different vibe from there sessions. It’s all business down there in terms of the intensity, effort and instruction throughout every single drill. I haven’t witnessed any sessions under Scott but with Thompson's high handball and running game I distinctly remember watching them run in waves from the centre/back line with multiple coaching staff and senior players really drilling each other on small details. The thing that really stood out to me was the knowledge the players had of the game plan. They were so well drilled at times it looked like it was just players coaching other players and when something would slip up no matter how small it was attended to. After reading your post and thinking about the differences in these successful clubs to our own I find myself coming to these conclusions. 1. That some/most of our players ether don’t know, have the faith or are currently able (for whatever reason) of properly execute bailey game plan. 2. The plan is floored and is too one dimensional for today’s game, working ageist some teams but not others 3. Obvious one, as we are a young side we are still learning it and it just doesn’t work all the time my 2cents
