  1. 3rd quarter poor handballs to no one putting ourselves under pressure missed tackles fumbles midfielders not getting into defensive transition Shocking skills by foot COULD BE 7-8 GOALS DOWN LEARN TO CONTROL THE BALL OUT OF DEFENCE
  2. It’s so obvious all night with Weideman. Poor poor. Must be dropped
  3. STOP [censored] overhandballing
  4. +s Better at the contested footy defence holding up Negative. Ball use going into fwd 40/70 zone. Fumbling in key marking
  5. Like to see OB get a game soon. Needs to just be allowed to use pace at all times.
  6. Late out. Chaplin. Finally accountable !!
  7. Yessssssss. He has been a free player for the last 2 years against us. PLEASEEEEEE
  8. Not wanting to question Jason Taylor but it was questionable at the time to pick Charlie Spargo. Most of Demonland had Charlie Constable and Jack Petruccelle in the 15-25 range in the 2017 draft. They both were available at pick 29 and then Petruccelle at pick 37 (Petty). Petruccelle’s pace was noted by most of us as being in demand to our side. Geelong swooped on Constable and the Eagles grabbed Petruccelle. Both would be very handy. And both are local boys.
  9. some obvious changes. Jkh delisted Lewis retired Vandenburg - a complete body rebuild
  10. Updated for Jetta
  11. Regularly eating fish n chips never stopped me from a high performance output. Some of my best games for Ashburton were after a big feed from the High Street chippers.
  12. Ffs. It’s all too cruel
  13. Noah Anderson Hayden Young Matthew Rowell all standouts and could easily be pick 1. Similar to Hodge, Ball, Judd year because you can easily choose either and be confident in your choice.
  14. Yes. Good observation.
  15. Both Weid and Tmcd need to BLOODY SHOW SOME HEART. Their lack of heart and at the contest is painful. Both signed up for big $$ and not repaying the club.
  16. Goodwin has lost me. Some very STRANGE coaching moves. Allowed Saints pace to take control.
  17. Agree move Misson on NOW! He has indicated he’s done so like any employee, it’s time to reset.
  18. Tommy Mcd and Weideman cannot take a mark. No physical presence. No second efforts. No tackles. Poor from both of them.
  19. Enthusiasm. Hunting the footy. Create turnovers. Edwards Rioli Baker Higgins Castagna Bolton. All small but intense players. 1- Richmond put the opposition under extreme pressure. A forward press that strangles your movement. They hunt in packs. They block space. They tackle. 2- run from defence. REBOUND GOALS. They run and run. They catch you on the rebound. Their skills and pace can tear you apart. QUICK BALL MOVEMENT 3- one percenters. They break tackles by getting their arms free. They shepherd for each other. They push, punch or force the ball forward. 4- Repeat score chances. they keep the ball inside forward 50. They kill contests. They create crumbs for small forwards. 5- Dustin Martin. His confidence and leadership drives the style of play. His attack on the footy. How to beat them? Watch the Pies in 2018 prelim. Take your chances. Move the footy. Skilled footskills. Break their tackles. Run your Guts out. Prepare for battle. Pace through the midfield. The 2019 Demons will struggle to deliver that.
  20. Outs. Lewis. T mcd. Spargo. J.Wagner ins. Garlett Stretch Lockhart Jordan Jetta. Frost. Hibberd Salem. Hore. Hunt Brayshaw. Viney. Stretch Petracca. Weideman. Melksham Garlett. Preuss. Fritsch Gawn. Harmes. Oliver Jones. Jordan. Lockhart. C-Wagner
  21. Out. Spargo ,Wagner C ,Wagner J, Hore In. Anyone with pace and a heart
  22. 7 goals. Beautiful day. Disfunctional.
  23. Agree. Stretch was Casey’s best. Most of the other AFL players were poor. Real talent in the under 18s again.
  24. Our targets are restrained by us getting Lever and May on big dollars. Lewis retirement likely to free up $$$$ 3 most likely Zac Jones Callum AH Chee Jackson Nelson 3 running midfielders.
  25. Why the insistence on Spargo being in the future team. Hardly showed any signs that he is assured a place in the team.
