Re: Sack Lyon

Freo have an experienced and pretty good midfield. They also have a very decent backline. We are currently having to play 7 or 8 skinny kids every week and up to 10 players who have played less than 50 games, and in several cases, less than 10 games. An unjury list doesn't get fixed straight away, p...

Didn't turn up ready for the first quarter

I knew in my own mind tonight that if we kicked 2 or 3 goals in the first quarter and were behind even by a point at quarter time that we wouldn't win the game. And that was exactly what happened. I thought we might win before the game tonight, but I am struggling to see where we win our next match ...

Re: Sack Lyon

Cr@p. RL wasn't dropping marks and fumbling the ball and kicking the ball out on the full. We brought in 6 players tonight. I think 2 of them should not have been out there as it was like playing 2 players short all night. Lyon is one of, if not the main reason why we are still competitive. How are ...

Re: Cold Hard Facts

Not sure why anyone is thinking this team can make finals. The small losing margins flatter the squad and coaches. They're like the hiker in the forest in the US that has several close calls with bears and manages to escape each time. Makes him/her believe they have the abilities to survive out the...

Re: Cold Hard Facts

I think we've got a core of great youngsters and the only reason we're struggling is because of the injuries to important players that we have had all season, and still do, and those players trying to regain touch. We have also had four suspensions to key players, with one player still on the sideli...

Re: RTB's Presser

Ratten has proved that he could coach with the performances he got out of North Melbourne when he took over from Clarkson. Yes, they didn't win any games, but they could so easily have won four or five, they just didn't have any luck at all. He also did a very good job with us, particularly in 2020....

Re: Sandy at Wonthaggi

We have to rid ourselves of this alignment. This is exactly why when players return to the senior team they look nowhere near ready. Substandard reserves alignment. Given that our seniors have struggled for players all year due to injury, and players with long layoffs due to suspensions, we can't af...

Re: In a way the Hawks will be the ultimate test .

We have an 8-9 record in Tasmania. 6-6 at York Park in Launceston. 2-2 vs Hawthorn in Launceston. It is meant to be 19° and sunny in Launceston on Saturday. 9/9 - we beat Fitzroy at North Hobart Oval in a match in Hobart in 1991. Lockett kicked a bag! Was RTB playing for the Lions that day? Yes.

To be able to adapt to Tassie weather, I suggest 1. Boys go for swims daily at Melbourne beaches 2. Walk to training from the carpark without a jumper or a hoodie 3.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Kangas

It's not the Saints, it's Sandringham and it's a joke. Can we please, please get our own reserves side anytime soon. Like North Melbourne? Their case is self-sabotage. They played consecutive prelims in 2014 and 2015 and finals again in 2016 before sacking their best players to fast track a rebuild.
