  1. Another thing, It doesn’ ttake that long to embed a new game plan / playing style. Think Craig McRae, Brad Scott is constantly resisting his; even Dean Cox has got his up and running. Gold Coast has latched on to Dimma's. Kingsley hardly had a blimp. Yze is progressing quickly. Players adapt to rule changes almost overnight, they can also adapt to game play!!*7
  2. Not sure if it's Goody or the assistants but a change in coaching is now becoming a necessity. I thought it may have been the players, or an aberration; but it's seems we are coached to Move the ball on with speed, by giving it instantly to the firtst player they see, regardlees if that person is in a better position, or worse covered! we stand in space (waving our hand) and not run to the space, worse we don't move out of it. Our firwards run back towards goal, or leas to the deep pocket, instead of leading up at the ball carrier Our midfield don't defend the outlet (we are not going to win every contest, opposition's tend to have good midfielders to) We tackle with our arms (easy to break throug) instead of our shoulders and rarely with intent We don't get enough numbers to the drop of the ball Bringing the ball through the corridor is normally done via a stationary player; not to a player moving to advantage Now it could also be the players at fault (contributing to this) but the the coaches should be dragging them, or dropping them, till they get the message.

  6. Geez, we have got to stop handballing to anything resembling a footy player at the mere hint of a shadow!!!!
  7. Our midfield got exposed for defensive pressure big time. Oneexample Miller ran hard ftom deep bscks and was involved in at east 2 times probably3, as the ball csme dowm the wing and endeded up a goal - at the same time Trsc was jogging through the middle parrallel and gave up spproaching 50.. Hard to give them votes. Gawn Melks Picket Turner Bowey Viney Note the lack of midfield defensive pressure allowed theirs to deliver darts into their forwards, or kick to advantage.

  13. Interesting that GWS losing streak has coincided with Strigger coming in - remarkable what a small tweak can do to a teams balance. We need to be careful We don't do the same with our forward setip. So I'd keep the forward line the same as howwe finished the game. We are far more potent with the small setup. JvR, Fritsch, Melks together doesn't offer the required pressure and none of them play as a lead up forward. Hawks rely on a lot of run, so I'd replace Petty with a midfielder or flanker; perhaps Woewodin who can be both. Can Adams ruck? Like the idea of Fritsch as sub.

  15. I'm a huge Feitsch fan but I'd consider JVR for him and tell JVR to play a Jeremy Cameron role. Perhaps move Fritsch to sub. Bring in Campbell or Veral to be backup ruck for Fullerton. Even AJ. Note: what had worked for us is two talls in the backs and 1.5 talls in the forward. We need to keep that mix.

  18. Premiership coaches at a second or third club invariably fail. Can only think of Mathews being successful. Often a successful coach will generate a lot of assistants coaches who then become good coaches - so with this in mind Who's rhe assistants at Geelong and Brisbane? Love Nathan Jones, but he doesn't look like the answer as midfield coach. At least not yet.
  19. Agreed, though the amount of talent coming through gold coast Academy's mean Players like Touk, Flanders, etc Will get pushed out quicker; or at least pushed to the periphy. He's also a Vic boy after all. Plus I understand has leadership quality in spades. If we lose 1 of Trac / Oliver I'd chase Touk for the quality experience and keep the other first round for the draft! Noting they are not looking for early picks; I'd offer late first round and change which they can convert into multiple picks (points). Is there a tall there as well we could chase. Could King get pushed out with the quality they have coming through.

  21. Oh and most recent premiership sides trade in kept players (particularlykey position) to compliment their existing talent. For example Brisbane - Daniher, Dunkley Collingwood - Howes, Hill Geelong - Cameron, Tuohy Melbourne - May, Lever Richmond - Lynch, Prestia Very few teams produce all tbeir own talls. Delve a little deeper and if they produced their own talls then they've brought in Midfielders. Oh and theses are example of chasing required players, not bargains or "be assembled they are available"! Seems to be a bit of a pattern.
  22. Butters would be a good fit; and compliment both present a d future midfield. I'd also sound out Touk Miller, as the amount of Talent coming through GCS now and future Academy intakes will push out good players quicker. Callum Brown fro. GWS could compliment our forward line. I'd also look at North's midfielders as they wont all fit and you should be able to squeeze one out. Powell would be my target but LDU is more possible. Expect Tim Kelly is also gettable, but is he still interested in footy? Whay aren't we throwing the world at Brayshaw!!! Bring him home.
  23. And only May and Tmac attack the ball in air - our forwards tend to wait for the ball to come to them.
  24. Our purple patch in this game coincided with when we managed to stick the tackles ----- coincidence????
