No footy on the weekend, I watched the 2018 finals vs Geelong and hawthorn. In those games, we: Move the ball with speed Almost never went sideways or backwards Pumped the ball in long to 20-25m out from goal, to tall targets with crumbers at their feet Tackled with ferocity, but not all players went to the pill. Fast forward to 2020: My observation is that we are trying to use the ball better. Many kicks are going sideways into the centre corridor. We are then trying to open up the forward line. Maxy said that players were misinterpreting the instructions of “patience”. Im starting to think it’s not the forwards, its our slow ball movement and the players are not quite sure what with the person with the ball is going to do. I understand game plans have to evolve, but I feel like maybe we radically changed a game plan the players understood and believed in, instead of making some incremental changes.

Interesting use of the wording “current board”. I have no doubt that Collingwood has signed agreements, handshakes and verbal agreements with “previous boards”.

So Eddie says port signed a contract. Honestly what choice did they have, if they wanted to enter the AFL there was no choice. This is a fair and reasonable request, to wear it in showdowns. Eddy himself said he’s never turned down a request for port to wear it in the past

Gawn won the B&F, just interested who you would list as more important, I have him at the top of my list. Sure we can still do well without him, but he is the most important IMO

This would be a highly valuable appointment if we could get him. Cannot believe the negativity on this one. EPL is no Mickey Mouse league. He has proven AFL experience, and under his watch Port dominated with their ability to outrun the opposition. Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe it was th year they made the prelim. Pretty sure before Port he also had a stint at Liverpool. I vaguely also remember an Adelaide advertiser article where he was running a program where other clubs/sports were sending their people to learn from him. Get it done!

+1 Podcast removal from mobile site, I like to listen to cool soothing tunes whilst reading demonland on the bus and the podcast accidentally starts frequently. Could I say that I am thoroughly enjoying the podcast each week, you guys are doing a great job!!! Question for possible discussion. How many players should we rotate in/out of the side given the short turn around between saints and Richmond. Given many posters think some “depth” players are like for like replacements, should we opt for fresh legs or play the best available side. Keep up the good work.

On my Apple TV, you can play from start, then pause and slide the green dot to any point in the game within a few seconds and then hit play again. That’s how I go back to where I was up to.

Perfect, flying over from Adelaide and Father's Day tickets are in M2. Will be nice to be near our supporters for once. Thanks for the reply!!

Can anyone confirm which end our cheer squad will sit? I presume the great southern stand end since we are the home team?

Weathers good at the moment, rain expected but doesn't feel like it at the moment. Feeling very out numbered in the East stand. Some bloke walked past and said ooh some opposition
