Our little one was lucky enough to get a ball after the game and with the sweetest message. All class by Chandler.

Best feeling ever. Don’t think I’ve seen more of a pro at the Dees than T Mac. Exceptional game and Petty just reminded a few that he can play the game.

Yep, logging out and logging back in worked

Have we stopped training? Going by the only thing on the socials Remy Jones and Teddy Melksham might be getting a gig.

The Caulfield base. Track gallops at 6am followed by the boys training and maybe a beer with lunch at the social club.

That is what I take out of the season so far, we don’t seem unified. I wouldn’t call it selfishness, maybe individuals are trying too hard to be the ‘I need to do something to get us going’ type of thing. In 2021 we didn’t talk off the field, we just did. Early rounds of 2021 in a game against the Cats I remember we laid 6 tackles in the last 31 seconds of the game and we were up by 4-5 goals. This season we can barely pressure the ball carrier.

I hope we don’t set up to minimise the ‘damage’, screw that i say. We were well and truly in the game at 3/4 time on Sat night and to watch us sit back early in the last like the Italian national soccer team of the 90s defending a 1-0 lead was excruciating. The game was there to be won and we should’ve been attacking to win it. People pay a lot of money for memberships and to watch that was beyond frustrating. No wonder supporters are fed up.

I can’t stand rotations. Fritta gets some confidence back playing out of the goal square in the 3rd and jags a couple of quick ones then he’s taken off. Momentum stifled. Then he’s put up the ground again.

That was a [censored] joke. Why are we sitting back ffs

I’d sub Conca and Chaplin in. Can’t be any worse off

Nothing grinds my gears more than seeing the opposition win a ground ball off a stoppage in our defensive 50. Hobbs allowed to just waltz in the first time and miss, then minutes later he bobs up again with a goal. We are just getting killed all over the field when the ball hits the deck.

What a goal Ah Chee

Rafa’s had a decent quarter

And also drops some absolute sitters, surprised no one has gone down the he would fit in perfectly at the MFC.

Lol, that’s the spirit

That rule came in about 6 years ago SWYL

Nowhere near our 2021 version. They still need to defend a lot better, don’t think we ever had 78 points scored against us half way through a third quarter in 21.

Are you suggesting Jeffo being on the ground solely to give JVR or Fullarton (if selected) a break then back off after they’ve had their 5 or so mins on the bench or ruck duties per quarter? Modern footy just does not work like that. No one is selected in the 22 to give players breaks. I could be misinterpreting what you’re saying though.

Noah Fritsch ? Ghosty does. Congrats Fritta

My question wasn’t directed at you so to speak, the term move player X to the bench is used a lot here and you just reminded me to ask the question. Your meaning of moving Jeffo to the bench is having him in the starting 23?

I’m curious, when people mention player ‘X’ on bench do they actually mean ‘bench’, like the good old days of sitting on the pine for 2 1/2 quarters? Cause there is no bench these days, players are on after 5 mins.

We’re not putting it into the net Ethan.

For crying out loud, please don’t mention the soccer ball as it seems to give some more reason to complain. Lie next time and say they were playing croquet, see how that’s received.

Interesting, for as long as we’ve had Goody the main sesh has always been 3 days before a game, not two.
