It is only one game, but it gives the coaches "a look."

Re: Caro on Ben King

Gold Coast may do better to deal this year, rather than next year when he's out of contract. They'll want a first rounder which is very reasonable. Freo will want a 1st rounder for Hill, again, very reasonable. We've only got 1 first round pick. Anyway you slice it, if we want Hill and King, we're ...

What a very strange turn of events it would be if Rossco landed back on Linton Street.

What pick did we use on him 33ish?
Seem to remember he slid down to us.
Good bargain.
Yeah, bottom age bargain. Probably would have gone a fair bit higher had he spent another year playing unders.

Re: Josh Battle got his Rising star gong.

It's strange how he's been a forward, but was taught to be a defender due to loss of Robbo, and he has really blossomed. Richo hasn't really been a good developer of young talent, even though he's touted as such; I think Battle's just one of those special players. Matthew Lloyd coaching him at Hail...

Re: Ratts Press Conference

He doesn't take his chances. It's just not good enough for a small forward who is there to kick goals. If he was brilliantly creative or defensively elite, it wouldn't matter as much. But he's neither of those. Thought he started the season really well. A bit of a shame he didn’t get to play the fu...

I noticed Webster kicked 2 for Sandy. Anyone catch the game? Was he playing forward? I wonder if Ratts already has different plans for Jimmy.

Re: Lessons from the Blues

Members kicks that goal, and therefore they don't get that fast goal 30 seconds later. That was the game, we would of held and won. Totally correct. That miss, 20 metres out directly in front with zero wind, was pivotal. I don't subscribe to single moments losing games unless they happen in the las...

Re: Ratten vs Richardson

Membrey converts from 25m out and we probably beat the Blues. They are 5th/6th ranked team in the AFL since the bye. Six weeks is not long enough to assess a coach. One thing for sure - Ratten has got 100% commitment and buy-in. The players have given supreme effort every game and there hasn't been...

Brucey was trying to do too much yesterday. Hopefully having Max King in the side should help his game a bit.

Re: Let's give Richo some credit

I’ve got no beef with Richo. He was nothing but a gentlemen whenever I interacted with him. 2018 was too much of a train wreck and he was crucified with injury this year. I don’t think his game plan sat well with the playing group and he never had much of a Plan B. On the plus side.... he’s managed ...
