Other than win the game, what must we do this week?
1. Win all four quarters. We can't be sleeping at all. The longer the game goes, the more we should be in front.
2. Win the contested possessions and tackle count.
3. Win the clearances.
What else?

Re: Higgins Alir incident
The AFL have been pressured by medical bodies, legal bodies and the public generally about addressing concussion, and rightly so. It's more than likely that if a player is concussed due to a tackle of any sort from an opposition player, and fails concussion protocols, then it would be hard to talk ...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
Any process where the same action can receive two vastly different penalties because the outcome is different- is obviously flawed! That and trial by media And yes - having Christian alone deciding all penalties is also ridiculous It should be an expert panel It used to be. Before the MRO, it was t...

Re: AFL’s play thing
We are irrelevant, not because of the AFL, we are irrelevant because we are mediocre and other than a few spikes in performance here and there, have been mediocre or worse in our entire history. This is more accurate than we care to acknowledge. We've played (prior to this season) 125 seasons of VF...

Re: Selection over the next couple weeks
King, Hayes, Schoenmaker, and Webster are automatic inclusions. If Marshall is fit, he plays forward with Campbell coming in. Marshall should not attend a centre bounce as a ruckman, but can ruck in the forward half. Hayes to go to the ruck to give Campbell the rest. King, Hayes, and Marshall make u...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
How can the impact be severe if the bloke gets up and takes his kick? Surely, severe is when you're KO'd instantly? I would ask what else are players to do in some scenarios? Higgins never once changed his grip on the bloke, never once changed the action, wasn't violent in the tackle. He'd be giving...

Re: Drafting 25
Every club would have put Boyd, Kelly, and Billings in the top 3. ' Every club' feeds the media whatever the media expect to hear. They're not going to disclose their actual picks Only gullible supporters would swallow the excuses used by incompetent recruiters. Only St Kilda would flip flop from t...

Re: Coming back
Hayes could be our 25th ‘best’ player But structure wise he’s critical He’s a better forward than Caminiti and a far better ruckman than Owens or Caminiti Caminiti has been woeful this season and was only given a pass for last year because of where he came from and we had no King or Membrey But the...

Disgusting that Hayes and Schoenmaker aren't given a go. We are going to struggle to kick more than five goals tomorrow night. They have us covered on every single line. A bit OTT don't you think? If we win they will make a sequal to Miracle On Ice. Hayes and Scho would make little difference this ...

Re: Forward coach under pressure .
I said it when everyone was criticising Ratten's game plan, and Richo before him... No game plan can survive our skill level! It's improved under Lyon, but was deplorable for the two coaches before him. At times during Lyon's tenure, it's been terrible... We started Friday with two terrible skill er...
