great work DeeSpencer. Agree. Yes you have to make Richmond’s defenders accountable. Yes Grimes. But also HOULI SHORT VLASTIN are all dangerous and rebound the footy. Top 1 issues v Tigers. 1- contain Dusty Martin. 2- stop rebounding defenders who start their attacks 3- hit your targets. Any skill errors are punished in counter attacks. We have worries here !

Exactly. Clarko is a politician and a smart tactician.

Agree. I was thinking this probably our strongest line up. No excuses. The performance against the Cats was very disappointing.

Geelong FC has Player by Player review across the 18 players from the scratch match. Different approach.

Not that long ... it stops at nth NSW

Rowell was born and bred in suburban Melbourne. Never connected to the Suns. The AFL gifted Anderson to the Suns in one of the greatest signs of favouritism. Agree. Test will be how they play against teams “on the road”

Some very good recruits. It’s a welcome back to a lot of the ex Gippsland power boys like Capiron, Reid and McGannon. Stackelberg is a very good young midfielder

Dockers game definitely not happening, and definitely not on the Gold Coast.

Yes.

Big news. Great bloke. Had a good chat to him back in 2018. Very easy going. He was frustrated that his body couldn’t get through a few more games. He would lift the spirits of the blokes and protect a few youngsters.

I am in shock. Casboult as the savior!?!?!?!

Agree

Assume we now are highly unlikely to play the Dockers on the GC. MOVE TO THE NT - games hosted in Alice Springs and Darwin

And promoting coal mining through Adani and big Clive. Ridiculously supporting burning fossil fuels !! They just need to have Vic team fly in and fly out same day with compulsory testing for each day for 3 days and prior to game

Quarantine clubs in NT. now !!!! AFL needs to keep the game alive

Ok. Just got the news and threads updates

Who are we playing? When ? Why? How? It’s crazy.

Let’s move to the NT. Let’s get a crowd. Come on Gil. I know you love Danger, Sel, Dusty and Nat, but show some love to the Dees. Round 8 Dees v Kangas (Darwin) Round 9 Dees v Saints (Alice Springs)

Cats - they were terrible Demons - we were worse

In. “Connection forward of centre”, “Connection inside our forward 50”. every week now, Goodwin laments this as our key problem. Simply adding this will shoot out game back to 2018 apparently!! forget the individual moves of Anb, Lockhart, Hunt, McDonald etc etc btw Weideman needs to play. Is he or could he be ? That’s would we need answered

Whilst patience with Vandenburg is stretching, he needs this year to get his body right. He was ok today and needs a few more matches. Though agree he’s only the last chance saloon. Fingers crossed.

I’m still struggling to give votes. I feel like there was plenty of poor efforts and disappointing day once again. Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Brayshaw and May were okay.

Agree. Need a forward coach. NOT GREG STAFFORD. FFS. FFS. FFS.

Yes agree. He is a good player and I think can be used more across half back.

Joel Smith amongst the 18 passengers today. I can only see 3 or 4 blokes who care about the game and the club. The rest are plodders today.
