spirit of norm smith

Tactic 1 May to full forward. I like it. He can kick goals Ps Bowey back to half back Tactic 2 Dees ponder Daicos tag YES… absolutely tag the little magician He hates a contest and tight tag Send our best runner Langdon or even perhaps Sharp or rotate through with other mids including Viney Daicos has elite run so Langdon makes sense Stop Daicos getting 3-votes N.Daicos Tactic 3 More of a “your [censored] kidding me”… don’t kick it to Jeremy Howe !!! Dees hit him as the target in the last game Ffs it was our stupid dump kicks show

Loved Choco for 2021 🏆 and his new player academy development work But ultimately the skills of the team are generally sub par , as is goalkicking. These were deficient areas that were within his domain.

Great news. Just need to be patient and let him develop.

Koby Coulson is definitely looking like an excellent young player from the Suns academy. Midfield type with balance of work shows him as a good inside and outside type. He played VFL suns (v Giants) on the weekend and starred with 26 possessions and 5 tackles. 85%DE. Suns have Addinsall and Patterson who both could comment top 10 draft picks to be matched. Not sure the Suns have points to match a third player.

Assume the poster meant Lindsay !!

Only if he was a delisted free agent. Has the Darcy Parish and Jack Billings vibes as top picks that lack the physical side of AFL FOOTY

SANFL UNDER 18s Sturt defender Jett Dahlitz racked up a whopping 42 disposals and 16 marks to control his team's backline with great intercepting and sure ball use. COATES UNDER 18s Rory Wright starred again at Sandringham Dragons with 29 disposals and 7 marks to tear Calder apart and go at just over 80% DE.

Matthew Jefferson is racing against time to participate in the finals campaign. “Jeffo landed awkwardly in a marking contest,” Griffith said. “While initially he tried to continue to play on, unfortunately the pain and function decreased. “He's had a scan which is unfortunately showing that he's injured his big toe. At this stage, we'll have to determine his return based on how far through the VFL team goes in finals.”

@Sydee sorry Sinnema is not like Kynan Brown. KB is a tackling machine with good 2nd efforts but has a poor kick that holds him back from playing AFL footy. He is a defensive oriented player. Sinnema has an elite left foot disposal , moves well as an outside runner but will need time to develop his defensive side with tackling & 2nd efforts.

Inside 50s. Casey 53- Hawks 28

Sinnema. Left foot is AFL quality. 👏👏

Sinnema 👏Adams👏Johnson 👏 Goal 👏👏👏

Riley Bonner Wow 👏👏Goal to Casey

Luker !!

Jevan Phillipou is not as classy or composed as his brother. He has a good sidestep, good eye for goal and has that grunt and determination in his footy. I don’t mind him and would see him being picked in the mid second round most likely. He is far too good at SANFL under 18s and has played 5 SANFL league takes and not overawed imv. Handy half forward type at AFL level. I’m not sure he is what the Dees need but again imv he’s going to be a decent player.

Blake Oudshoorn-BennierDebuted for North Adelaide yesterday 10 possessions - 90% disposal efficiency. 5 tackles. Looks ready to go player who could move between HBF and Midfield.

I love it

@Demonland So the “State of play” at end of 2025 @No Coach - interim @No President - interim @No CEO - awaiting September @No home base - still waiting waiting … will it ever happen in our lifetime —-—————————- Club has been dismantled from the 2021 premiership: Burgess departing to the Crows Restaurant drama and reported players punch up Finals 2022 & 2023 … Two x straight set finals departures Board room dramas Key Players retiring, leaving or injured (Hibbo, LJ, Gus, ANB, Ben Brown, JJ, Bedford, Harmesy) Gus’ sad concussion retirement Trac on field injury and subsequent off field dramas and trade dramas Clarry off field issues and trade dramas Missed finals 2024 and 2025 Did I miss anything … ?

6 Gawn Daylight 5 Rivers 4 Petracca 3 Petty 2 Viney 1 Oliver Apologies to Salem , JVR & Bowsa Long list of players marked as absentees yesterday

It was embarrassing Disappointing Disheartening Pathetic And … 👍🏻Riv tried and must be part of the future 👍🏻Gawn is a warrior & is one of our greatest 💔kozzzzy was totally disinterested - long term contract but looked like he’d rather than be somewhere else 💔Salem - ok he tried but little slow sideways kicks or kick too often to a contest 💔McVee - looks like he’s going elsewhere 💔Team - too slow to move the footy and cannot hit targets - skills are so sub par 💔💔more inside 50s again !!! - 5 goals from first 50 inside50s … get a real coach next year 💔Chaplin - contracted for 2026- sorry, Bowey is half back, not HFF …given he was sitting with Goody over the last 4 years, not sure he has any answers 💔missed tackles - “stay in the tackle” !!! 💔forward smarts / if you watch guys like Taylor Walker or Thilthorpe at Crows, they are working to create space or physically contacting the backman before they lead or contest. It’s smart! Not sure our key forwards can be described as smart. 💔May250 has lost any dynamic ability and labour now to compete 🤞Tom Sparrow- tried - where does he go? Where does he fit in?

@Demon Dynasty can’t argue

Pies versus “the bye” next week We were truly pathetic v hawks!!

Votes for Sparrow… Madness

Update shortly

First half in a word … Embarrassing!! @Demonland
