Re: Changes this week

Membrey wasn't available against Sicily and last week was his first week back I'd be inclined to play Tim on Tom Having said that, maybe Coops can surprise me and maybe he's ready to take another scalp I am not sure that Membrey has played as a defensive forward? Plus Stewart is 2 cm taller than Me...

Re: Jordan Lewis about coaches

Do you need a good leader/coach - yes But does a good leader/coach guarantee success - no And has anyone ever said a good coach alone would guarantee success? = no Successful teams do most things right. Coaching is just one of multiple factors that need to be gotten right. But without a good coach ...

Re: Ross Lyon’s year of experimentation

I think while our injuries have provided opportunity to get games into the kids, that RTB has actually erred on putting even more games into them than injuries alone required. This will help us going forward. Caminiti for example now knows that he neds to build his body up if he wants to play key fo...

Re: Reality

If you look at the list changes for this season we went for more youth. Ignoring everything else you would expect to slip. But to be better for it in a season or three. IN Anthony Caminiti (pre-season supplemental selection period), Zaine Cordy (free agent, Western Bulldogs), Olli Hotton (No.35 draf...

If you think Ross is happy with that performance you don’t know him. He doesn’t rave and rant but he’s not cuddly. He is honest and to the point. He takes no prisoners and knows what he wants.

Re: live stream overseas -- how? where?

If you have Kayo already, you can use a VPN but I found this very hit and miss. I think it now detects the VPN, and will not play till it is turned off, and then the geo locator blocks. I my recent trip though USA/Canada I watched my daughter's Foxtel account through a VPN and it work every time. H...

Interesting that he is selected in the side this week against Carlton with all the following medium to tall forwards (who have played that position this year) available- Caminiti, Phillipou, Cordy, Owens,( all selected) and arguably King, Membrey, Holmes( returning from injury) Holmes???

Re: Mass exodus

I don't see a mass exodus coming. It really depends on whether the club is successful in trading in players and in gaining any free agents. If the club is active in that which is wat Stavro on Bigfooty is suggesting the club is trying to do, and probably where the "hearing" in the OP came...

Webster had a shocker last game. But has had a good season.

You do not drop players for one bad game.

Just depends which team turns up Both us and the opposition. If you look at Geelong they have been just as variable as we have been. Also the Tigers, and Blues. Lions as well, but not as much. Plus they are much better at the GABBA. Cats are definitely beatable if we play smart and fast football fo...

Therefore they are different
Agree. Sharman is more your "third tall " type. He could well be our replacement for Membrey.

He has only played 26 games.

He has shown enough of late to indicate that he should be retained for next season.

I have seen the first two confirmed today. Have not seen the third confirmed today. If a hamstring normally the scans would have been done and reported by now.

Oh and some dude named Sicily had 22 intercept possessions and won the game for the Hawks last time. Sicily only had 8 this time. Now why was that? Who was his opponent this time?
