  1. Yes wtf was going on. Watched first half again last night. Counted 14 slips. !! More slips than tackles. Missed some opps to stay in it.
  2. Yesterday I was angry and disappointed Today I still have hope and faith in the future
  3. Yes. We slipped over 30 times at least. At least. To nil. Why. Why the .... why????
  4. I agree mostly. We can draft some youngsters for these roles. Preuss is a must get to support, relieve, tandem or back up Gawn. 3/yr deal for Preuss.
  5. Retire. Vince. Balic. Delist. King. McKenna Johnstone (then rookie) trade or delist Jkh Bugg Rookie delist. Foilopovic Rookie retain. T Smith Maynard That’s 7 total spots. (6 main 1 rookie) trade possible. Tyson (tough call) rookie upgrade. Keilty
  6. 2019 recruits Lever. Hogan. Kent. Stretch. Hunt. Fritsch Each will add to our end of 2018 prelims team.
  7. Sorry all harsh on Hunt but I saw him as being a really good if not great player at end 2017. Just disappointed
  8. Vince. Retired on time Hunt. At the crossroads Keilty. Promote to AFL-list Tsmith. Vfl level only Wagner. Vfl level only Bugg. Not good enough Fritsch. See huge potential Pedersen. Call it time Gartlett. Totally lost interest. Jkh. No more please Petty. Still just developing mckenna. We will delist
  9. Jkh poor. Delist or trade for biscuits goalkicking practice for all over the summer get a ruckman as well get Preuss
  10. Fritsch is a round 1 lock his Skill was missed in the prelim we need to hit targets
  11. Top 15 shockers it could NOT get worse 1- fumbles fumbles fumbles on a dry day 2- turnovers turnovers turnovers that killed us 3- missed tackles and no tackles (34 total tackles wtf) 4- goalkicking was very very very poor Weid Tyson Anb Spargo Gawn all missed sitters from 20 metres out or on the behind line 5- contested footy. We were pushed again. Aside from Harmes and Oliver. 6- pace was not there. We looked slow at times 7- handballing in back 50. Why? Put others under pressure 8- lack of run to create 9- where’s the big hit. The physical play to put pressure on. A fight at qtr time may have helped. Not a punch but a big bump 10- the bounce of the ball It summed up the day 11- falling over we slipped over 20-30 times versus nil Boots with studs?????? 12- forward crumbers?? Who ?where 13- composure. Deer in headlights 14- leadership. No one took control to hold it together. 15- stop Kennedy Darling McGovern. We knew their strengths. It was a very good year. Real signs of a premiership team. But the prelim was shocking and so disappointing
  12. Preliminary final 0.5/10 the 2018 year 8/10 dessrves to play again with his role again as a defensive quarterback half back. 2019 will be his last year. Let’s deliver a premiership and Lewis 5th!!
  13. Traceable. Tyson Kent jkh Bugg Retired. Balic Vince -2 likely delisting. McKenna Filopovic King Johnstone (re-rookie) -4 Other Delisting possibles (1 of) Bugg Pedersen jkh 7 spots likely available Preuss in draft picks. 38, 50, 56, 74. (Bedford, Lockhart, Hore, Ayton-Delaney) rookie draft pick 14 (taller options) kielty upgrade rookie johnstone - downgrade to rookie
  14. Poor again from Wallace. AFL system ?? Will Hayes is in AFL System with Footscray/Bulldogs. Michael Gibbons will not cut it at AFL level. Josh Clayton has improved but not enough. Tyler Roos is as good if not better. Further players from the SANFL/VFL/NEAFL/WAFL then Sam Collins Werribee vfl Abe Davis South Adelaide sanfl Marty Hore Collingwood vfl Jay Lockhart Casey vfl Mitch Maguire Canberra NEAFL Chris Jansen. Kangas vfl
  15. I have backed Tyson. But after the prelim deesaster, Tyson for Preuss sounds like a fair deal.
  16. Campbell Hustwaite has had an outstanding year. Captaincy has elevated his play. Positives is his strong contested play, run and discipline. Disposal needs improvement so may miss getting drafted if recruiting think he cannot be improved. But realistically he is a definite rookie chance. Nick Smith Swans champ had same issue but has corrected to simply kick the footy without pinpointed style.
  17. Agreed we LACK real crumbing forwards. Need for this in case Hogan tmcd Weid fail on a day. 1- Still hope for Jeffy Garlett 2- Toby Bedford should come in as next generation pick. Starred for the Stingrays. 3- rookie draft may present an opportunity for a gem Spargo is not the answer. Not great pace. Smart but goal kicking is poor. Tackling 50/50 at best
