The overwhelming positive out of today's match was the performance of TMac. His performance over the next four weeks is vital to our season and today he delivered in spades. The tactic of sitting off our midfielders is becoming like the out the back of 2017/2018. Why does everyone else see it but the great Goodwin persists with Max and his Jarmanesque taps. Let's see what happens next week with the Saints. -
yes.. just select the play from start option (if the live/from start options are given) and you're away the replays have the pregame comments cut out of them also
-
it's the easy Gawn counter and we have fallen for it for years..
-
Gawn with 3 possessions and Jackson with two
-
it stays there for months. The diff is that after a day or so it goes into replay mode which is lower quality video than the 1080 of match day
-
Oliver hasn't got a touch
-
I used the term CEO in the business sense. Goodwin is the CEO of football and therefore the most powerful person int he club. Pert is an administrator Strange beasts..footy clubs
-
Yze and Williams are a message for Goodwin... In that sense the group is not cohesive No CEO would put up with it which shows how tenuous Goodwin's position is. Anyway as you say early days and he may surprise
-
Basically that we have gone nowhere over the last 3 years and that our coaching team is now almost dysfunctional with Yze and Williams in the wing. Bartlett wasn't spared either. Inability to sign Oliver etc Nothing that most of us haven't been saying for a year or two... bottom line Goodwin disappoints
-
3AW putting the boot into us pre-match
-
Just some additional info for those who may be interested in Kayo. While Kayo still takes the in game ch 7 commentary there are now no ad breaks (no commentary at that time) and during quarter breaks you get the Fox commentators not Ch 7 A welcome improvement
-
Any updates or info Lovely morning for footy
-
Wouldn't it be wonderful if in five weeks time we are wondering how we can possibly fit Weid and B Brown into the team. To sleep..perchance to dream
-
welcome back !!
-
Other than draft picks who have gone (almost) straight into the senior team our development via Casey has been less than stellar. Is it any worse than other clubs? No idea. My traditional whinge is that we have such little luck with our 28 plus year olds going on. If you can get two or three of those who perform at a high level week in week out list balance is so much easier. Hopefully May breaks the mould
-
struck me as a 6 v10 game. Pies dropped a few easy ones and Dogs not that impressive up forward after that first 5-10 minutes. Season wise probably a little more upside in the Pies... De Goey couldn't play that badly again.
-
there is a retort that is so obvious it need not be stated
-
Carlton played into the tigers hands and nearly won. Good on them but playing that way against Richmond you will lose four out of six. Not sure what style is required but the slow maul is pobably better.
-
How the AFL allowed themselves to be gamed by the coaches is just a joke. Concussion... wait a minute .. what about a corky !
-
the stand alones are often quite strong.... it's a bit of a lottery... five injuries to the AFL team and the VFL team starts to wobble
-
definitely hoping for a big win by the Toiges.... couldn't stand a Blues team on the way up Draw between the dogs and the Pies Giants and Saints is the other one that interests me... Go the Orange

the increase to 21/22 players were justified by injuries. Now we have an increase to 23. Why stop there. How about a panel of potential subs like soccer where you can have forwards, midfielders and even a reserve goalkeeper to choose from. After all a team should never be disadvantaged. Seriously though with the man on the mark rule and this one how many more untrialled changes are we going to see.
-
perhaps we need the old MCG ring of steel brought back BBO.
-
I'll live with that if it's a compulsory week off for the subbed player. The opportuntiy to game it otherwise is obvious
