IF he can get his fragile body right

But more importantly ...are you wearing the right socks???

except he can’t ruck.

and he knows how to make a tackle really stick.

didn’t we win the first 10 games in 21 and 22?

Found our DNA again in the 3rd. Oliver 13 possessions and there was high tackling pressure everywhere. Best we’ve looked since 21 I think. The second half of the last was disappointing, I think we have to remember 2 of our superstars are still finding their way. Trac is still re discovering his power and confidence post injury. Oliver played so injured last year and had off season surgeries, he’s coming from a long way back fitness wise. Both of them will be better in the second half of the season as we will be as a team.

anyone know what the crowd estimate is yet?

A chance to get our season back on some kind of track. A win and the whole place starts to hum again… a loss and there will be blood.

can you name him?

I would even argue that having come through a test of loyality the commitment is deeper still. Id also back him for the captaincy.

A win, Trac coming forward with his love for the club and now some good news on the training ground front...... Im not sure I can absorb any more good news!

This is so good to hear. 🙏🏼👌For the club, for Trac and for the further healing of many things in 2024.

what’s with 6 goals in a qtr? I just travelled from 2012 back to 2018. hopefully I can stay here.

Thanks. Your post tell me we’re getting back to business as normal here after a bitter week of cannibalism and mutiliation. :-)

fir those of us that don’t subscribe..would you be willing to give a tiny summary?

Nothing he said would quell the violent mob we’ve become but, for me, I’m still glad he came out and said something.

Excuse the length of this but I’m trying to find a way to feel better but can’t find the opening! To state the obvious. We’ve now got a set of coaches that suddenly look alarmingly second rate ( that covers all of fitness , tactics and group cohesion). We have a group of players that now are beginning to look either old, lacking the foot skills and pace for the new game or alternatively young and out of form. In fact I have that same Neeld vibe that the coach has lost the players. We have a huge % of the salary cap going to 2 players ( trac and Oliver) on long contracts who, in 2025, you could only class as average . We also have probably our current best player ( kozzy) who wants to leave. Plus and perhaps most importantly we have no home base and in this economic climate seem unlikely to get one . We’re all too aware of the myriad of issues that brings us. I mean forget 2025 this looks like a decade of pain coming. Are we headed back to 2012 or … here’s a scarier thought…are we actually already there and just waking up to the fact !! So… this is tough tough question for you three. Given the current pall hanging over the entire club is there ANY hope anywhere about this club.

you don’t need the “ better analysts” fr that. I’m terrible at tactics as i’m too emotional as a watcher. But even I could see, just 10 mins into the first, that a thrashing was coming. that it was kept to only 39 points is some kind of weird credit to them. Been the same for the last 4 weeks. I haven’t been as depressed watching the dees since 2012 /13 . I thought those days were behind us but I see those times if not darker days now yet ahead.

Officially a dead man walking .

the way they started the 3rd should have been the way they started the 1st. The team is utterly lost now and playing some brand of footy no one understands and that doesn’t work. Big changes needed.

For the feint of heart time to stop watching. this is a 70 plus point loss coming up folks.

we have zero system it’s almost embarrassing

i’m having 2013 deja vu

oh dear

Well after a week of abject misery about ...well every single thing related to the dees ...Ive been visited by a strange sense of hope. The " what ifs" are getting louder. I may well regret this but dees up by 6 goals at half time and win by by 10 points.
