Absolute madman!

Agreed but He’s going to be way better than Frawley imo. Much better awareness and kicking.

Yup.  And if Lever can get his body right, he will be the best defender we have had in eons.   Special player.

A key defender with speed and great kicking skills. I realised watching the replay back how much we needed him. Also has obvious leadership. Always directing players in the back half. 

Best key defender we have had since.....  I cant even recall.    Possibly since Neitz was playing as a CHB.

edit -    since James Frawleys AA season

Yes.....  May, Lever, Frost, Petty.

Would need multiple injuries to get a game again.

But yesterday you told us the whole problem was coaches being in the wrong role.

Yes. Why do you think the gameplan was so bad?

I hope not.  Need all the goal scoring options we can muster.

 

We have plenty of goals scoring options, just look at last season.

Its the game plan thats the problem, or has been.

Kyle Dunkley with our first goal.

Oh boy.   The Dunk show begins!

Hell yeah.    Already has two lots of 3 goals at VFL level .. not sure how many games hes played but I would guess its only 4 or 5.

Lewis is a good example of a known factor in the salary cap spreadsheet. His salary will be well and truly marked for elsewhere. Where it becomes difficult is dealing with the outliers which Frost could become.

 

  I doubt Lewis is on much this season as it was likely  a frontloaded contract.

Great first goal.   He could be the small forward we desperately need.

Lockhart is about the only thing keeping  me interested at the moment.  Has kicked some lovely goals already.. has great goal sense.  I feel he may snag a couple of bags this season as he gets more comfortable and our mess of gameplan is (hopefully) sorted out.

If Goody moves him from the forward line I will scream.

Just here to blow my own trumpet.

Jay Lockhart Man Crush -  Activated

Knew he was going to be a gun player.  And I was right as always.

It is quite hard being a genius. Some days are much harder than others especially with all the pressure that comes with it,  but you do what you can to get by.

A mildly amusing moment from Goody’s presser when asked about Frost and his awesome game today.

"We call it (that) he turns our ball movement into 'Frost-ball' and no one knows what's happening – but neither does the opposition.

 

Thats gold.  Frost has been so good this season.

Was a bit dumb by Jones, but I didn't mind it in a sense in that there had been talk about disharmony between him and Viney and he was going at him after Walters tried a dirty snipe attempt at Jack. (didn't quite go to plan tho!)

 

 

 

Michael Walters is a fairy.

Bad result for our tiny, tiny finals chances.

A nice variety of votes due to so many solid contributors, which is great to see.

6  Viney

5  Oliver

4  McDonald

3  Gawn

2 Lockhart

1 Frost

Honorable mentions -  Petracca,  May, Fritsch, Harmes, T Smith

Just wait til he and Lever have meshed.  Bring on 2020 i say.

Well, we might as well make the finals now.

Will Lever and Hibberd ready next week?

LMAO at this.

Jacks back baby.

He was worst on ground playing quite possibly the worst game I've ever seen for 3/4's of the game against inexperienced defenders (Ryan was on Smith and Hamling on Hannan).

Did Rawlings only start coaching at 3/4 time?

Yep, great to see. And your point is?

That you shouldn't have judged a players impact in a game THEY GOT INJURED IN and that Lockhart is a gun.

On 6/10/2019 at 1:55 AM, Petraccattack said:

And Lockhart is a total gun,  hes way above VFL level. Too bad he isnt in the team tomorrow ahead of Spargo.

Yes, his 8 disposals against the Giants were a real game-changer.

Hope you were watching today.

Wouldn't have won in Freo weren't two players down. 

Who gives a [censored], we lose players all the time during games.  Seems to happen to us more than any other club.

Go Dees

Tom McDonald dominant.  No coincidence.

All our problems have been because of the coaching roles we got so horribly wrong.  Why the hell was Rawlings ever sent to the VFL?

Jay Lockhart is a gun.

Confidential Eddie McGuire says they’re “getting the band back together”, returning to host The Footy Show with original sidekicks Sam Newman and Trevor Marmalade.

Never been less excited about a game, but a big win would be welcomed of course.

Interested to see how our forward line goes with Jade back at the helm.  Actually , the entire team and style should be a lot different with the coaching reshuffle during the week.

Ahh [censored] it,   Melbourne by 37.
