Hope the coaches show the players a lot of the off the ball treatment Gawn received during the match review this week. Time for the team to draw a line in the sand.

Brutal Dees review.

Maybe we make Grundy a ruck rover….

TASMANIA…

This is strange, because I saw him lay three tackles in a row, and none of them got recorded…

No concussion = low impact.

Totally agree with this. Was there. Wasn’t pretty. We still have good bones though. Just need to rediscover our mojo and belief.

Agree. Will be interesting to see when Selwood retires. Might be a bit like the Lions after Voss finished. Selwood’s don’t grow on trees.

Fourth. Sam Collins, Jarrod Witts, Alex Witherden. The Michael Hurley incident did not result in a fine.

Given Port finished on top, and we finished 9th, I’d be happy to return serve, and poach their fitness guru

Such questions aren’t asked enough. Like contested possession, outside run, game plan, prior opportunity, sling tackle. They all mean different things for different people. One man’s pressure act is I’m sure another man’s freedom fighter.

Different habits would be a welcome relief to supporters

Essentially removes GWS from having pick 6, and promotes us to pick 7.

Thanks for explaining. I’ve just been reading about the points system involved (see link below). Makes more sense. Definitely not an even system, but seems the best they’ve come up with so far. I’ll have to read up on “priority” picks now. Seems like another rort to take advantage of. https://m.afl.com.au/staticfile/AFL Tenant/AFL/Files/Father-son-bidding-system.pdf

Does this mean we can match Gold Coast when they make their 1st pick by using “points” from our 3rd pick?

I might be a bit slow on the uptake, but if Green is in the draft, and we have pick 3, how can GWS prevent us selecting him if he’s not taken with picks 1 or 2?

Taranto was GWS best on ground in the GF.

Why help GWS?

Chris Judd (2001) and Dustin Martin (2009) draft picks 3.

Relax guys, we’ve got this

Have been racking my brain all year pondering the 4th to 16th slide, and agree with most of this assessment. I think the loss of confidence (in no small way due to the Prelim last year, then the unexpected round 1 defeat this year), has not been adequately acknowledged, nor addressed, by the club as a whole. Footy is a game of cohesion and momentum, and team success flows when the many moving pieces are in sync. Despite all this, there have been unexpected positive signs, Fritsch is exciting and creative, Hore is committed and reliable, Frost is imposing and instinctive, and Lockhart is explosive and a finisher. It doesn’t make up for the disappointment of the season as a whole, but it gives me faith that next year, with the likely return of Vanders, Melksham, McDonald (Tom), Lever (fit), Jetta (fit), and Hibberd (fit), the combination will be a strong, skilful core, capable of matching any team.
