Re: Finals Predictor
I recon the Journos have already decided on the cooky cutter template they will pull if we lose, "Saints Finals Pretenders". Only win 3 games in final 10 weeks to finish disappointing season that started so promising...and so on. We need a win or this seaon will be a bust. How do you get ...

Re: Finals Predictor
If we don't beat the Dogs then it really has been a disappointing finish to the year and means we will have only won 3 games in 9 matches. Win against the Dogs and we might have turned a corner. We will be favorites against the Dogs and I expect a win. After that who know what can happen but we are...

Re: Changes for the Elimination Final
Bit going on in this thread. I tend to agree on one point, Max's 'technical flaw'. My opinion, in contests too often his hands are over his head not in front of his eyes. Apologies for interrupting the action. It's a thing for sure. When you watch him in slow motion on the replays his eyes lose con...

Re: The dullbogs say they are going to get physical against saints
This will be a massive test for our on field leadership. Players like Billing's will need to be up to the task, there's no room for bruise free footy in finals.

Re: Changes for the Elimination Final
This is the thing we need to get our head around, we fell into the finals with 10 wins and 7 losses in a much shorter season. If this was full strength competition we would be 2 or 3 games short of securing a finals berth Now I'm no Stephen Hawking, but 10 wins from 17 matches is around a 59% winni...

Re: Different type of thread
The 3rd quarter against Port was the highlight for mine. It was the first time I'd seen a complete team performance of hardness. Throughout that quarter Port ratcheted the hardness up several times expecting us to not go with them and fold as has become our reputation over the journey but each time ...

Re: Training today ...
Assisted Meters Gained
(AMG).
So if a player disposes of the ball backwards 10 meters to a player who takes it forward 50m, that player will have an AGM stat of 40m
Ratts uses this stat extensively to measure his set plays and Kent and Sebby are the best proponents.
