Re: David King and Whateley analysis of what's gone wrong this year
I haven't heard the line "this group is so coachable" at any time this year.

Re: David King and Whateley analysis of what's gone wrong this year
We are not playing to win games. We are playing to be competitive in them.
That much is clear.
Add no end game tactics, no scoreboard awareness, and we are playing like a team that doesn't care about the 4 pts each week.
Is that tanking? It's mighty close to it.

Crowd prediction vs Freo
I think the crowd this week will be a statement piece and a big scare to the club.
15,532 is my prediction.

Re: Crab watch
Be interesting to see if Jack has got quicker. Pies rely on speed on the large MCG. I wonder who Jack would have replaced in our team that beat Collingwood earlier this year. I didn’t watch the game but it looks like he was sub initially, came on for 7 touches… maybe finished the game off? Concusse...

Re: Philipou’s Manager
I work in retail. We had a 17 y.o. boy who complained about having to do menial tasks that we all have to do, and he dragged his feet, and if he had to collect shopping trolleys (which a lot of us have to do) he would complain of a headache and say he needed to go home... He would rather talk with ...

Re: wallpaper fallen off - cracks exposed
If we won GWS, Essendon, Geelong and Hawthorn games we would be having a much different conversation.
I wonder if perhaps the club and players (and supporters) are being made to feel inferior to kick in the next level of development.

Re: wallpaper fallen off - cracks exposed
I think the mandate to rebuild was then met with surprise when we ended up top 4 for most of the season. We (the fans) got excited and expected a step up this year, whereas we (the club) stayed the course. The last finals tease (2020) got us excited for a quick build & have a crack but it, which...

Re: Are we going full tilt in 2024????
I felt like we are going into every game to be competitive but eventually lose.
No end game tactics
No 'blitz' tactics
Not playing to the scoreboard (Runner messages is a cop out)

Re: Changes for Freo
Clark was alright in the tight and tough stuff. I think he's a chance too.
Ins from: Caminiti, Dow, Clark, Philippou (in that order)
Caminiti is a certainty after that performance.
Outs from: Membrey, Hayes, Hastie, Ross, Garcia (in that order)

Re: Sandy at Wonthaggi
I stopped watching at half time, but it looks like Pou has kicked on and started winning some ball, and caminiti with 2 goals 5 is impressive and disappointing at the same time.

Re: We are kidding ourselves.
End of last year we were on the rise and a destination club. 9 rounds in and that's changed to on the slide and on the nose. There are supporters who knew well enough not to believe we were on the rise and a destination club as a result of the 2023. My Nearly every neutral and pundit in the AFL wor...

Re: Sandy at Wonthaggi
Jones had two clangers so bad the commentators called them out.
Clark has been OK, and my first time seeing Keeler this year and he looks good.
Nobody is screaming "pick me" with their performance today.

Re: 2025 list
No point turning over too many players, you just end up with more pick 50+ players.
We will want room on the list for 5 new players next year.
Allison
Campbell
Jones
Hotton
And one more.

Re: Ins and Outs
I thought Paton was influential in the second half despite not touching the ball too much. Had some physicality which we are seriously lacking.

Fitness lead, replaced Misson when he moved up. Think we also got rid of someone to bring him in.
