OK...good. So there is a hiearachy based on how much time and discussion is available. Our reality or the facts of the matter/how we perceive the reality including all the blind spots we have/strategy to deal best with it as we see it/ system to implement the strategy most effectively/tactics to ex...

He was from Dimboola FFS. Great player though. And, thought jabbing up was no bad thing, even if what was in the syringes was not familiar to those who ran the 'science' out that way. I still remember Timid 'explaining' clinical trials of AOD 9604, on SEN one day during the 'supplements saga'. So v...

Would add both Billings and Acres to keep list. Trade Sinclair, McKenzie and Rice ( slow) but may not have much currency. Lonie is uncontracted so has no trade value. Agree we need to give more time to Marshall, Long and Austin. Joyce will not make it, we can't develop recruits that have grown up w...

Menzel was ok had limited opportunities and he will fit in well as he got nothing from the umpires. Consider this - he has a midfield including Selwood, Dangerfield, Ablett and a bloke who had a very good year, Kelly - and he still struggled to touch and win his own ball!?!? Wot, 27, and a bucket l...

Yes.

A quick read, and I think Shane G is the only one who mentioned "strategy". So, kudos. Unfortunately, the explanation of what strategy is, was wrong. Strategy sits atop the tree - it's the identification of where you are, cf where you want to be, the gap, and broadly what you need to do to...

If ya watched it, you'll know what I mean.

Fair call on Sinclair but I doubt we would get any interest. A first rounder for Billings would be acceptable in my view, he does not play to his draft position so another should be tried. We need to be in this draft somehow to have the wherewithal to make a play for some real talent. A first and s...

Pity they didn't drug test the whole team after the replayed grand final. if i recall correctly, there were elevated levels of HGH (human growth hormone) or maybe testosterone. In about 10 Filth players. They were borderline, not over the limit. It was either covered up or not highlighted by the me...

A few days after the 2010 grand final replay. I know someone who worked at the Herald Sun at the time. Mark Robinson was going to go with the story. The sports desk that day was abuzz with this big story they were about to blow. My contact told me to grab the paper the next day, as it was going to ...

So says the coach - https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/my- ... 4zy41.html

G. Rubby Allan does arrive, Summers decides it's all too much, the 'other' Bassat decides it's worth a shot (a possible compromise given the earlier rumoured 'tickets'?' - and, there were 2), with Lethlean having now installed his MacBank ammo mate in the list manager's gig, does that leave Lethlean...

Yes agreed, but there's usually a forecast or a presentation that includes forward looking statements that address our expected future business and financial performance. There will be numbers that are historical abd there could be some forecast numbers. This is where they will paint the same pictu...

This quoted post needs to be in this thread as well. Quote from Moorabbin Ghost on BF.. . “I’ve tried to bite my tongue on this topic for 2 years now but I honestly think Richo is getting worse, not better.

Great post ToT. This cuts to the essence of why the players should not be blamed. They are demoralised because they have a coach they don’t trust. Hard to front up week after week and play for someone you’re completely disconnected from. How do you know that? Spoken to the players have you? The pla...

All aspects of the club share the blame. That was the message during the review. The club has got us in this mess. The club has to get us out of this mess. The club as a whole. I don’t really care if you don’t like that answer, it’s fact. It’s a real grim place at the moment. Thanks tony 74. I acce...

The players stuffed up on Saturday and putting the blame on anyone else is not holding the players to account when they deserve it. So who's responsibility is the ongoing performance of the selected players ? This isn't one bad week. I agree, it's a thing, the players have turned up thier toes on m...
