Ditto for the Filth and has anyone ever seen their away jumper?

ooops sorry thought he was back 😄

At the risk of upsetting a few here there are at least 4 on that list that arguably will never play AFL on a regular basis - we need to keep refreshing our stocks in the KPF ranks as it continues to be our Achilles heel imo

Our recent record against the Swans hasn't been great so despite them having some a few regulars missing we should not expect this game to be easy. I went to see the Swans against Carlton last week at the SCG. They don't bat that deep atm imo so if you can nullify a few key playmakers, we should win. Heeney and Warner are probably the big threats so hopefully Viney and I suspect Clarry can keep them under wraps - both are super dangerous inside F50. Blakey creates a lot of rebound in their D50 and I thought the Blues did a decent job of blocking his usual handball receives which robbed him of the chance to do too much damage.

Fagan is a genuinely good bloke - and a good coach

Yep unless the Dees are 15 🤣

Any of the Casey boys get a blatant trip that was missed by the umps or do they just save that sort of stuff for Kozzy who imo always seems to get a bad run from them (and the tribunal)

Sure is - good skills, fast ball movement and some half decent forwards 18 goals in a half is good to watch

I must be looking at the wrong AFL ladder atm - we are 15th and frankly that’s a pretty fair reflection of where we are at atm

Hard to believe fitness is not an issue when we see consistently poor 4th quarter output

They are top 4 and we are bottom 4 Not sure it’s a surprise they outnumbered our supporters who do have a tendency to drop off if we aren’t playing well

He actually offers more than Jefferson at this point and I think the coaching staff would probably agree Both have their work cut out to be regular AFL players imo

That’s just unfair on a guy that’s been at the club 5 minutes you seem to set very different standards for certain players on the list

Surely not he used his body to out position his opponent - that’s legal

No

Is fitness one of the big problems for this group? They can’t man up when teams transition from D50 and I gave up counting the number of times Geelong had players 20m clear of any opponent even in their F50 By contrast when we have the ball nobody seems interested in hard running to create separation for themselves or create space for team mates to run into Our forwards are literally look like backs playing out of position - they seem to be devoid of any kind of creativity when it comes to leading patterns and predominantly want to wrestle with their opponents or push them under the ball ( the easy option imo ) We have quite a few players who just don’t look AFL level fit to me - it may explain our pathetic q4 stats this season to date

I genuinely think we have more players not up to AFL level fitness than any other team A few have excuses but are way off where they need to be - it’s the reason we can’t man up and it’s the reason we get run off our feet in the last quarter Add to this we seem to be totally bereft of confidence I can’t see a win any time soon Agree it appears we have a number of players that aren’t fit enough for AFL competition Unfortunately that’s not something that can change quickly

We have some of the slowest , dumbest and most unfit players in the comp

Lindsay looks like a great pick up and I’m feeling good about my sneaky wager I e got on him for the Rising Star award But let’s just stick to best available rather than focusing on Gippsland only 😀

If we had Jakovich plus one of Neitz , Lyon or even Jurrah running around now we’d be close to flag favourites atm Our lack of a genuine consistent performer in the F50 has and continues to be a weakness Getting the ball inside F50 hasn’t been the challenge - conversion and taking opportunities has been Unfortunately we have nobody of the calibre of these guys coming through either so we just have to make do

Geeez we always seem to have a number of top 22 players missing Whenever I look at other teams injury lists they have a list of players that I’ve hardly heard of Surely we are due for some luck on the injury front soon

Anyone see how this is a holding free kick to Greene - he has a fist full of his opponents jumper but somehow gets a free kick and goals Astonishing imo

I think Adam Kingsleys post match interview should get a watch from a few of our “supporters” I haven’t watched the game yet but he thinks we are going to be a very good team - I think his assessment is probably more accurate than some of those who seem very glass half empty atm Yep really disappointed in a loss but seriously didn’t think we’d get that close having watched GWS live the week before Truth is we could put in a few stinkers and then you’d be entitled to be negative but not after today as this game was ours until the last minute Work to be done but a really decent effort from a team with more new blood than we’ve seen for a very long time

Next thing it will be 2 quarters not 4

Just back from watching live Collingwood look pretty slow - yeah it was hot but I think there are too many plodders to take on the likes of GWS or Hawks, Freo Really impressed by Finn OCallahan wow he can run Sam Taylor is a gem Darcy Jones is a very handy small They will be a very good test for our boys next week make no mistake As for the pies I know it’s only opening round but I think they will struggle to play finals - their future doesn’t look that bright to me - hopefully I’m right 😀
