CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
The coaching failures over time come to fruition when there are no previous alternatives from Casey trialed from when we were 10 zip but patchy...and show up when the players are interviewed and say " we have that ferocious edge going" and the like . Shut that presumptuous crepe down until the game is over is the job of someone on the coaching staff I understood you were on the blame Melksham for anything band wagon that runs around here. My mistake apparently I can't see TMac being ready given his slow build to form in the past. Obviously he's an option...but I'd get rid of BBB myself and trust the forward line smalls to work harder But yes overall they cracked under pressure all around the ground,there's only so many times May and Petty can stop it without mistakes creeping in. So Longmire prepared his team better than Goodwin?

Happy to be mistaken. We will see

CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
Yeah two crucial misses and half the team fell over or handpassed to Sydney all night. He was pressure and as much as they need extra big tall strong I'd almost play TMac for rag doll Brown and hope Fritta and Gawn can catch it. Max doesn't tap to our players anyway . Problem with TMac is I don't think he comes back from foot injuries with any sort of form to speak of. That's me jogging past you while you blame Melksham for bad coaching an game wide lousy decisions from the Captain down

CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
Yeah post game frustration on my part 200cm 100 kg and competes like a rag doll ,albeit one who can kick straight. But the only alternative if TMac isn't ready is Weideman and that's just crazy

CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
Melk out..? Maybe but were you actually there or watching on TV...two different performances
-
CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
The reason we have no one coming through to cover for injuries and poor form is that the Coach regularly says he will be " ok " or flatly refuses to change a problematic line up..experiment even ,when an opportunity arises. Mind you we'd want Trac if he was 95% good to go
-
CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
Yeah, but they can't drop the Captain . He was shocking all night
-
CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
Who has to come in to get rid of BBB? TMac or Van Rooyen? Harmes will be suspended
-
CHANGES: SF vs Brisbane
Harmes likely won't play before round 2 next year.

My 3 word player analysis V Sydney
Gawn endless bad decisions May carried the team Petty is a champ Kossie is not Flash ..is not Eddie is not LJ , Melk 2 vital misses Trac Dusty 80 % Jackson left for home. BBB 200cm 100kgs ragdoll Salem ok I guess Sydney organised and committed MFC can't stand pressure Viney standard setting fumbles Ollie can't fault him Harmes round one 2023

ROAD TO THE GRAND FINAL
I am not sure and would struggle to explain it but I think it is possibly that they could advance to the flag by defeating in sequence .... Sydney then Collingwood then Geelong !!!!!!! I mean how good would that be? Respect, then no respect , then who is the best?

PODCAST: Rd 23 vs Brisbane
Thanks you are correct I didn't. I thought my sarcasm was fairly obvious though. Everyone says he's a good bloke so it's a pity he's not an AFL standard footballer. But then neither am I .

Not how I observe hIm relative to others in the team... But youre welcome to disagree with me

2022 Injury List
You reckon? I don't doubt his intent and I am a fan for the last 4 years but I think he's mentally a little fragile. It's written across his face .When he's up and about he looks like a different player. Walking off after a game where things have gone wrong he's flat and expressionless
-
PODCAST: Rd 23 vs Brisbane
I reckon we should give Weid another chance. He hasn't had a crack for over a fortnight and he's a proven finals player . Against the Hawks 4 years back for example. TMac takes a month to get up to speed after injury

Farewell Luke Jackson
Or MFC if your name is Scully. Geez get a grip!!

Farewell Luke Jackson
in the week after their last game. He's already decided ( no matter what he says) so he will just get it done. I speculate he's really sure now which may be what he played so well against Brisbane. Perhaps weight off his shoulders even though it was pretty likely 3 months ago
-
Farewell Luke Jackson
It seems the week off comes just in time to jump start tired old fantasies . What's better than lots of cash and a Premiership medallion? Going home with two medallions and a truckload of cash

Clarko to Norf
Fantastic...just when Essendon thought of it( Jackson not Dogga) Norf pip them again. This is a gift that keeps on giving and couldn't happen to a more deserving Club. Sheedy, Hird and Lloyd with Robbo as number one fan. May they suffer in their Jocks for another decade. Actually I chat to Hirdy from time to time..quite a nice guy really but ..not an original thinker and a bit of bluff in his manner I reckon
