Allison will surely be delisted

Hotton - might get a rookie contract?

Melbourne or should I say Narm

Will come out hard after losing to the Eagles

Core is exactly the same

Superfluous players like Billings, Gresham, Bytel, Highmore, McKenzie out

Dow and Henry plus Wilson in

Arguably this year is a better list

Definitely not!!!

The list is 80% the same

And a year more experienced

Every team has injuries and suspension

Squad mentality- you deal with that

If we do become a basket case It makes recruiting tough We don’t have the lure of massive crowds, we are not a big club with a proud history. Ie/ LDU might leave NM or Mcluggage Brisbane Why would LDU go from one basket case to another? Why would McLuggage leaver a top 4 team to join a bottom 4 team...

Went to the game Blustery and occasionally drizzling Against an inferior AFL reserves side (which happens if you have your own reserves team and injury hits!) It was an easy kill Most players got their lick of the ice cream - so take the result and numbers with a grain of salt Matt Allison probably ...

Wouldn’t Steele be shitting in our B&F right now?

Is not a small forward!!!

He started there at Freo and struggled for consistency- like most small forwards

Moved to the Wing and averaged 25per game

He is being played out of position

Clark’s 3rd match today

Played last week was just ok

Two weeks ago he came off Q1 with an injury

What happened last year - with the same list?

Is Jack Steele the new Seb Ross?!

Has that been the case for 13 years or only now

Because it was the coaches fault previously

I just don’t understand the

Want to defend

And not

The want to score?!

He’s not on a pedestal he’s just a great player who delivers

He is the least of our worries

Disagree

50/50

I saw the ball on turnovers coming from d50 or through the middle the forwards leading back towards goal

When all they had to do was a little hook lead and it would have been a little 30m pass and a shot from 40

I’m not just talking about his numbers

His effort was huge - which resulted in those numbers

If you don’t think he was our best player - you were watching a different game to me

He was enormous

Marshall was Huge

A ruckman to deliver the numbers he does is ridiculous

I see the ‘green sign’ was brought out when we got 3 goals down - with 3 or 4 minutes to play

Obviously it’s a sign to move the ball quick to try and score

My question
Why aren’t we doing that all the time?

We are NOT a go forward team!

Would you rather lose 7 goals to 9
Or
18 goals to 14

It’s our ball movement From stoppage and from d50 We congest stoppage by rolling up two HFs because we don’t trust our midfield therefore it’s not spread from stoppage but generally hacked forward because of the numbers around the ball- we cannot come out of the front of stoppage From d50 it’s eithe...

5-Marshall
4-Battle
3-Owens
2-Webster
1-Sinclair

Lyon is not a rebuild coach - proved that at Freo

He did NOT come to StK to start a rebuild- he came to improve standards and coaching acumen to get more out of this list.

We got pick 18 last season
We got pick 10 the season before

That is not a club rebuilding

But the players were ok last season??

We can’t score

Employing a defensive forward is the last thing we need

Holding 6 forwards and not pushing HFs up to the contest might lessen the effect of HBs AND allow us to score
