Re: Let’s talk about cheating

Get a grip Yorkeys. There's no need to get on your high horse because I've got a different opinion than you regarding 'what cost us the game' You're not a better supporter of the club. You're not 'supporting our players' by thinking they got robbed. I'm relaying what the coach said and all of a sud...

Perennial finalists/top 4ers with no significant injuries. Own interstate dunghill. Bloodlusting supporters. Coach under pressure. Coming off a humbling loss (if Port supporters can spell humble).

Re: Lyon Press Conference Pre-R7 v Port

What’s the purpose and benefit of the tactic of sitting back in a game of keeping’s off? Ross was shielding the players. It wasn't a tactic it's what the players delivered. Rubbish. We defend grass every game. I guess you think the bombing to 30m out is just the players and not a tactic. If as you ...

Big ask
OK forget the goal. How about an effective tackle, maybe a chest mark, if that's not too big an ask.

Re: Who would you pick?

Not Tim Membrey,
unless, on Friday,
Tim executes a run down tackle
Prevents his marker taking several intercepts, and
kicks a goal before half time, I.e. while the result is still in question or earlier if result is foregone before then.
Is that too much to ask.

Unfortunately Membrey & Higgins are no Gehrig & Hammill.
Hopefully Wilkie can mentor the young defenders in the VFL.

His manager could suggest to the young man he play a blinder Friday night. Might help the contract price and other loose ends.

Our rock solid defence imploded early, yes? House of Cards then fell? Dougal hammy, Jimmy suspended, for some reason Wilks has not reached heights/consistency of 2023, Sincs calf injury meant he missed a bit of preseason/lost form and sides have realised that tagging NWM puts a hard break on our reb...

Re: Phillipou Close to Signing

But dropped for whom?
Maybe Clark when he is fit? Not really like for like? (which might not be a bad thing).
Not for me to critique our development plans, but I wonder at times if he is developing "footy sense" and composure at the rate hoped for.

Harley Reid will become a very marked man. That might slow them down, unless he is a reincarnated Carey.
