Re: 150 Up
Never been his biggest fan but deserves to be our second longest serving coach - well earned. Second most successful too… would love to see him become the most successful

Re: Max vs Ben
The reason Max does not lead out to receive a kick is that our game plan is to kick to a pack and either grab a mark or create a stoppage. If he played at a club where he was allowed to use his ground speed, marking power and agility he would be a 60 to 70 goal a year forward. However, under Ross h...

Re: Max vs Ben
If you put Cordy up there instead you would not need to use your best defender to negate him because he is not a sufficiently strong contested mark to cause you any real problems up forward. Agreed on all fronts. Don’t get me wrong - my suggestion wasn’t meant to be a desirable alternative. Like yo...

Re: Owens
Thought he was pretty poor I think he is our most overrated player That isn’t to say he is no good but he is not as good as some supporters carry on about! I’d have thought 15 possessions for a half forward and goal would have you salivating for the incoming Brownlow. I certainly haven’t heard any ...

How do we fix the forward line?
Last time I can remember it being consistently functioning effectively and looking dangerous… the line up was so,etching to the effect of: Phillipou, Caminati, Gresh Higgins, Cordy, Butler Then as some of those players pushed up the ground, Owens and Wood would drop in Here’s what I remember of that...

Steele with 33 touches and 10 tackles and Sinclair had 29!

Re: An early season test for our coaches
I don't know what people issue is with Byrnes. He's one of the only players I see having some kind of impact in tight. I'm not sure, maybe I have to watch our poor moments more closely but it feels like pretty much everyone was turning it over in the first half, so why single him out? The first thi...

Re: An early season test for our coaches
If you have too many developing players in a team it isn’t going to win many games. We already have Caminiti, Sharman, Owens, Phillipou, Wilson and Hastie, and presumably Windhager will come back in next week. And now you want to add Bonner, Schoenmaker and Garcia. It’s far too many! Not really wha...

Re: Crab watch
My call at the end of 2023 was to move on 2 of Dmac, Jones and Billings. Too expensive and injury prone to carry them all.
My choice of the three was to keep Billings. I pbly stand by that as he pbly offers more value than Jones… but I can’t say I’m losing sleep over it one way or another

An early season test for our coaches
It’s been a bit of a roller coaster so far… 2/2 with a combined losing total of 13 points Injury ravaged list Some what erratic form With a little bit of luck, we could have been 4-0 . Certainly the Essendon game is one we lost rather than one that they won… and we’re pbly all feeling a bit relieved...

Re: Bonner
Certainly bounced back - I agree that the criticism last week was over the top but you really only have your self to blame when you have 17 turnovers. Kid has excellent skills but the challenge for him is composure… making the right decision rather than blazing. One thing I really like about him… 4 ...

Re: Match Thread vs Richmond
I think sometimes the reality is you play ugly and are lucky to get away with the points… and whilst the negatives shouldn’t be ignored per’se, it’s just worthwhile getting the points and reloading. Like many have pointed out: We’re injury ravaged Not in great form Structurally all over the place Ri...

Re: Match Thread vs Richmond
Am really not liking Jones or Byrnes at the moment… not great disposal… in which case you need a lot of ball and they’re barely near it. Hate that Butler walked right back in and hasn’t gotten near it King, Membrey, Coops and Caminati is just too tall. Seems like everyone but the club saw that comin...

Go Saints… hoping for a strong response by the Saints led by the midfield with King reminding everyone that he is elite.

Re: Team v Tigers
We look too top heavy. Not sure we need both Cordy and Caminiti in the team. Came on to post this… Am very worried about their potential run from our backline. Coops most likely going to be expected to player a curb influence/chase role that I’m not sure is his strength. Reckon one of he or Caminat...
