Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
BTW, Battle up forward wasn't good. It was a desperate move. Battle is a really good player, but is at his best down back. As is Sinclair. Do any of you remember Alan Richardson's tendency to move Carlisle forward when things got desperate? That's the sort of situation we were in this afternoon. Ros...

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
Standard Ross Lyon football. It takes until the last quarter to decide to try to win the game rather than to try to purely negate the opposition. Bassett needs to make a hard call. Give him till the end of the season to change his anti-football approach and if he won't or can't then fire him tomorr...

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
I think the best description of how we are going was made by our current President some time back: "it's not a linear progression."
This is incredibly sad from my POV. I'm old and I want to see us get better.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
Can someone remind me what was wrong with Ratten’s style of coaching?
It must have been worse that what we’re seeing today but I can’t remember why.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
One thing I've noticed today is that it appears that you are now allowed to push your opponent in the back when they are attempting to mark the ball. The Hawks benefited from this "new rule" several times and we also did once or twice.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
I think we can do a lot better in the remaining three quarters. But we're definitely struggling.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
If our game is about moving the ball forward quickly, then the Hawks are much better at it than us.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
Whatever our game plan is, it isn't working so far. But Marshall has been terrific.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
Not a great start. We don't seem to be able to get into our 50, and then Mason makes a rare error and gifts them a goal.

Re: MRP pisstake
You've said it more succinctly than me. I'm not certain that there was any contact at all.
Still a stupid act by Newman: it could easily have all gone horribly wrong.

Re: Team vs Hawks
I don’t get it. What could you hope to get from Paton late in the game other than for him to come on and possibly blanket a staring Hawk mid. I’d have had him top 22 or nothing Spot on. The only sense I can make of it is that perhaps the club doesn't feel that Paton is quite ready to run out a full...

Re: MRP pisstake
In my view of the world, Newman's act didn't warrant a suspension: the force of his contact seemed to be very light indeed.
I certainly agree that, in the context of the other suspensions handed out lately, he has been treated extremely leniently. Perhaps he is also a "nice bloke."

Re: In a way the Hawks will be the ultimate test .
We have an 8-9 record in Tasmania. 6-6 at York Park in Launceston. 2-2 vs Hawthorn in Launceston. It is meant to be 19° and sunny in Launceston on Saturday. 9/9 - we beat Fitzroy at North Hobart Oval in a match in Hobart in 1991. Lockett kicked a bag! Was RTB playing for the Lions that day?

Re: Ins and Outs
I assume those calling for Schoenmaker to come in against the Hawks haven't watched any of the Zebras games he's played. To put it simply: he doesn't go hard at the ball in the way that one would expect an AFL player to do. He's a great kick, and has a lot of potential, but he is clearly a work in p...
