Harves was a fantastic player, but you can't use that as evidence he will be a great coach. It means very little. We have no idea how Harvey will go as a senior coach and the fact that no other clubs are considering him for the role is telling. I'm happy to give Ratts another shot. He has shown some...

If he wasn't going, surely he would have knocked the rumours on the head. He's either going or seriously considering it.

If he wants to move, I can't see that we can stop him, contract or not. And Scott playing down his fitness, they're going to squeeze us on this.

There's a big difference between needing a rest and letting the grass recover and recompletely resurfacing it. I haven't been for a few weeks, but I have been there a number of times this year and always thought it was pretty good.

People on the Twitters are talking like they know that Jack wants to leave. Does anyone know if this is true?

Tom Morris thinks we'll get a mid second round in return and now I want to spew [emoji2961]. I rate Jack very highly and he's clearly our best player. He seems very underated by outsiders.

He is a better player 2/3rds fit than Doulton Langlands.

Pointless comment.

Steven 180 games
Langlands 3 games

Any player 2/3rds fit is a liability.

I agree with Mart. Jack unfit is still much more impactful than Langlands. Bring him on for short bursts.

It also depends on who we draft and recruit though in terms of midfielders to replace Steven.

What the?! No way!

Jack is a gun and easily our best player. We should not let him go without a fight.

Bring him in for an interview and Milney can be the interviewer.

Look at Geelong. I don't think bottoming out again is the way.

If Hanners was expected to be rested, then he wouldn't have been named in the initial side! Something is up.

At least one poster here said they saw Zebs game, Jakey was nearly puking at qtr time. Jake needs a bit more VFL before he's ready, apparently? Club says he's good to go? They also let Gears play in China. Underdone. He wasn't mentally ready. Not good. Quarter time? Banger and Roo and many others u...

They probably got the rumor here!

Wow, Armo must be completely out of favour. He looked very good for Sandy. 10 tackles I think and had similar last week.

It started last week and here it is again this week.

At the very least hopefully we play with endevour and make it a good game.

Last weeks performance was a real worry. I hope that have that desperation they showed in the first 5 rounds.

Will Bytel play VFL this year?

I saw him doing some kicking and marking practice after training on Thursday. He looks extremely raw to me but I have zero expertise. His overhead marking was OK but he looks like someone who has never kicked a football in their life. Not the end of the world though. Joyce is a pretty good kick now ...

I actually expected this year to happen last year (wow did I get that wrong). This was always the plan with the rebuild. Maybe it's more that last year was the anomoly? Rebuild and growth was trending the right way, but the loss of Roo and Monty had a much bigger impact that expected. Billings and G...

This is the first time since 2009 (not 2010, in 2010 it dropped off) that I have seen the saints apply that extreme level of tackling pressure. I remember in 2009, the Crows were on a 7 game winning streak... until they hit the saints and got absolutely smacked. I think we're making these teams look...

1. I still think we need one gun midfielder. Like Danger at Geelong or Dusty in their premiership year. 2. Read in twitter that Robbo was in tears after the game. [emoji22] 3. Still no respect from media and opposition supporters (actually I kind of like this!) 4. Gary Lyon commentating was absolute...

I don't get Sammy's report. If all these players had good games, why was the team thrashed? It's disappointing to see Sandy still uncompetitive. The really good teams have strong reserves teams.

Ideally would be getting games in Hunter. I did notice late in the third last week he looked stuffed and just stopped. Maybe a fitness thing?
