Re: Let's Talk About the Elephant In the Room
I agree Don’t buy Vorts nonsense We don’t need to trade King - we need to use him better and support him I also agree Membrey is a poor support act - not big enough to demand attention, to inconsistent to be a credible threat…so all opposition attention goes to King ….sll iur players coming forward...

Re: It's time to move Nasiah
Didn't notice this much during the game but on replay it was noticable that Nas was playing around and ahead of the ball a lot more. Still anchored at HBF but given freedom to move up and back from there. Definitely shifting forward and back, helped shift defensive forwards on him, and also influen...

Bit of a sensitive soul is old Stav but as mentioned a few things don't add up like saying we are at our cap but the general consensus being that we have a huge war chest ... so what is it?

Re: Latest scuttle butt…
Would be stupid to let Battle go claiming we “don’t have the money” Who are we paying?? How much is Howard on? Ship him off even if you have to absorb some of his wage and then give the balance to Battle! I don't think it is that we don't have the money in our full budget (we allegedly have a massi...

Re: It's time to move Nasiah
It might be worth a shot but I think his evasiveness and kicking skills are more valuable coming off the edges rather than directly in the middle. I agree half back probably isn't his final position, but not sure he has the physicality to scrap for the ball in a stoppage situation full time, at leas...

Re: Predictions this Round
Max King to coach, and Lyon to play at FF we could use Rossy in his prime as a mid. Lol maybe rose colored glasses but prime RTB is basically Windhager now: https://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/R/Ross_Lyon.html https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_player_compare?playerStatus1=I&tid1=7&...

Re: Match Day Demons v Saints
Not sure there’s ever been a more pointless selection than Collard. I have grave fears for him at that height and weight playing in front of the worst midfield in history. He’s so light - isn't showing his speed when he chases and our cockhead mids keep floating it on his head. I felt horrible for ...

Re: Team Saints V Melbourne
No Crouch or Clark? Collard before Crouch n Clark and the coaches have more hope in a teen? The two Cs must be underdone, still proppy ? They must be, otherwise I don't see how at least one doesn't come in. I would assume Collard, Sharman and Patton don't make the bench and Jones is the sub.

Re: Jon Ralph is a tool.
All he is saying is that our good performance last year (which surprised everyone, noting the year of experimentation and the injuries we had particularly early) resulted in the bar being set too high for this year. He is under the pump because he isn't living up to last year when in reality with ou...

SEN has just put out a story ( a coupla hours ago ) about RoMa's influence, saying his numbers look good but make him look better than they should, and are misleading. Hey, listen, I don't work for SEN, I actually live in Perth. I wonder if they get on here and Bigfooty, read our stuff to get ideas...

Re: Good kicks taking short kicks
The answer to this is because the opposition isn't giving us the kicks we want. Our better kicks are taking them because a good team set up well isnt going to give us a huge window to hit our target so you want your best kicks on it. The issue is when the opposing team isn't giving us option 1, then...

Nice stat for those who think we haven't been doing enough to develop our draftees. The most matches played from draftees in the past three years has West Coast on top with 199 games, from St Kilda (186), Hawthorn (177), North Melbourne (168) and Adelaide (122).

Re: Innovate or perish. Part 2
Owens was a pretty highly rated contested ball player as a forward moving up to stoppages around the ground last year, so I think it is just disappointing that it seems he is playing more as a permanent forward and working in contests in the forwards 50. The more I think about it, maybe this is a sy...

Re: Innovative or perish. Part 2
This is very interesting data Scollop, thanks for gathering the data. I had also thought that Owens was blazing away a bit last year, so good to know it wasn't really any worse than other players.

Re: RoMa in the ruck
B.M must be trolling. You can't be seriously arguing that our mids need to work harder and bring up their low possession numbers (I don't have ruck contest attendance to hand, but disposals for Steele 18, Windhager 17 and Dow 15 are clearly low), when the point we are discussing is Marshall grabbing...

Or you’d prefer he didn’t kick 9 a...
