What an indictment of the coaching staff that they persist with the push up gameplan at VFL level. At best it teaches the players how to wrestle. How about a bit of skill development. Game is worse to watch on TV than at the ground and boy they have been poor spectacles in the main this year. Cannot be bothered with the second half. Out to catch some early afternoon sun

disappointing quarter by casey after dominating the first 15 minutes for no score the two teams swapped goals until Zebras dominated kicking 3 goals in time on Zebras by 18 JKH and Stretch getting lots of ball but not damaging at all

8 inside 50's for no score.. sounds familiar Have not heard Weideman called.. is he playing?

Sandringham are two spots below us on the ladder with one less win. It is a proverbial toss up With Preuss and Weideman playing we might win. No wind should make for a good game.

Keeping Stretch also raises the issue of the 4 injured amigos... AVB, 2 Smiths and Stretch... can we afford as a list to have four NQR players who are injury prone. Add in KK and that's 5. Put's immediate strain on the list.

we are road kill... if you watched the coverage last night we weren't even mentioned by the commentators as being a bump in the Tiger's run home.

we barely did... it was on almost the last kick of the day

nah... it's only three more and the alternative is a massive revenue loss

isn't this the coach killer

Is this an honourable loss ?

and that's what worries me about this game and the last 3 or 4.... not much reason for hope in 2020 with this gameplan

that's a coaching issue... and let's face it.. our guy ain't top drawer

mmmmmmmmmm perhaps we are tired... no wait.. that was the 2017 excuse This year it's injuries is the buzz word and the year before the year before it was we were too young Goodwin needs to do something about Oliver... 2 touches in 40 minutes odd of football.. hello Coach

Hard to appreciate that we now struggle against cellar dwellers... wait..... we are a cellar dweller

what more can one say about this gameplan

Oliver .. 6 handballs ... zero kicks why

ssssh ... we are told we have a great coach

how to go scoreless for 15

definitely deserves its own thread... you never know it could be bigger than Jack Watts, Hogan..will he leave and the is Goodwin the guy.. put together Personally I think it's time to ditch the jingoistic US theme song

Blues well on top at present. Could be some strong pressure on both south Australian coaches over the next few weeks

Sitting near a group of teenagers from the northern territory. Asked them if they thought our playing up there had increased our supporter level in the nt. They all looked at me blankly and said... No

At the mcg. Massive support for the crows. Their fans must like to travel

the Sandringham/mfc relationship was not a great one. Should we have stayed around and worked on it... who knows. IIRC we were one of the first shared teams and it was purely a cost saving exercise. Strangely enough the old MFC reserves team were reasonably successful but it never really seemed to flow through to the senior team The VFL is struggling and becoming increasingly irrelevant. Enjoy it while you can is my thought. Spargo and Hannan not playing is symptomatic in the sense that teams are looking at fitness regimes other than match practice to re-invigorate players.
