They have never honoured a BB lead( which is his game) he's doomed to contests in packs. Dumb coaching or dumber players Probably a bit of both

Scott will out coach him , that's a given. Who wins is another matter

Wow that's a big call . Can you get him to fix the Dee's forward structure please? " forward line like a 3 Michelin star kitchen but the chef has called in "work from home "but no one has told the footy dept"

It's not Taylor's fault he's a complete boofhead,he was probably born that way, but it remains a mystery how he gets a headline job in the commentary box. Any job actually. But if they paired him with Daisy Pearce every game it could be a ratings commentary win. People would tune in just to hear Daisy quietly correct his mistakes and complete lack of game vision 30 seconds after he's made them and the game has moved on a bit. I suspect he's too stupid to notice or he's too busy checking his " cheat sheet", but the rest of us notice as if it's up on the scoreboard in neon lights

Someone should tell him then, because it's there as common as his magic moments. This is coaching / guidance as much as anything imo. It also seems that Kossi, having signed on again ,is now getting " less" time in the midfield again rather than the "more" he (supposedly ) requested Coaching

4 possessions 3 tackles ,33% effective This wasn't his grand final type game. If he was front and centre more often not setting himself for a big grab from over the pack when the ball was coming in he wouldn't be " bypassed". Out of position with no sense of cost benefit analysis or risk / reward dualism.. Can't argue with 40 goal seasons but he can be much better.

Bang bang bang.. Gee who would gave thought? They have been so good agsinst the top teams this year with their innovative coaching and skills. I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you. Bleeding umpires I reckon

It doesn't matter whether they finish if they keep playing like the last two seasons. The game has moved on

Especially when coach clumsy insults them pre game Geez ..

Really? Do tell? Innovations? Fmd

The only certainty is that the Dogs are pretenders...as always. What a crepe Club they are

Too much time in the air or running very fast after someone all parties know he won't catch. He doesn't seem to choose the options with the neccesary ruthless cost benefit analysis. When he's choicelessly in the mix of the play he's electric though. Good kick but ....and his block to allow Trac to kick "that" goal in the G/F was worth whatever he got paid to extend his contact

A back six of May Petty Lever Salem Hibbert and McVee might be a surprise given the coaches capacity to make bad game calls, but gee it would be useful

Other than the Dogs( who I never count) which top sides have the Dee's beaten?

As fearlessly critical as I may be I didn't have the nerve to say that( I did think it though) .

To the extent that I may be known around here ( very small) I am a grinch with nfi,so I felt safe enough to go one more time ( smile)

I was at a Dee's game against the Swans...Bails vs Roos where everyone in red and Blue were better than excellent

Given the Dee's 4 quarter games since they were premiers( basically none ) surely the question should be which team wins close ones.

Yeah me too...its out grandfinal after all

Get Petty back to where he's best .The backline is exposed without him They are still the highest scoring forward line but its not because of Petty. They can't play BBB and JVR in the same forward line unless they learn to kick it to Brown on a lead. TMac taking a back out of the play is old news, hes finished...BBB,JVR with Gawn/Grundy and Fritta floating around is a marking quadrella Defensive pressure and fall of the ball action from the rest would help as would Kossi choosing when to chase a tackle ( thats when he might catch them,not just look quick) Maybe Oliver isn't the reason Trac won't win a Brownlow; both champs but perhaps not as effective as the legend on here suggests Goodwin might stop saying " we back our system" or we're looking at getting the balance right" as well. Two seasons of nonsense pressers is enough ...time to target winning from 6th

Culture ? Surely not.... they have " Goody" as a coach

Is that the new excuse?..I thought it was the umpires,the AFL and Geelongs home ground advantage

It takes a special mediocrity to do that.

You hate dare,vision and intelligence then? MFC is responsible for what they have created and the supporters and management they have attracted...and you hate others who have done nothing but succeed where MFC have failed Geez. Now Richmond.. who moved into our ground and the State Govt and VFL who allowed it...they are worthy of disdain .
