Once we win the ball back from turnover we are bottom 4 for generating scores When we win the footy from turnovers anywhere forward of centre, we are bottom 2 for scoring. Our stoppage players either need to drive their legs and find space rather than kicking it blindly...or we need handballs to fin...

So Teffers Are you saying he inherited a bad list Ipso facto Ratten had a poor list Meaning it wasn’t his coaching - it was the list then too… right?! Ratten's defensive systems were s*** and he didn't know where our List was at. So it had a bit to do with his coaching. In hindsight Richo was a bet...

Really interesting take from Joey on First Crack Reckons ball transition isn’t our main issue Suggests the issue is we lack players with the ability in congestion, contested situations to take the ball from inside to outside aka why we rushed Dow in You are changing Joey's message His message was a...

..Sharman should be played deep forward and left there for four or five games surely that opportunity has been given in spades, he's just not up to AFL standard. He stood up in a final last year and played a reasonably good game. What other AFL standard are you conjuring up? Obviously, you are stil...

Stop it S_D

Ross Lyon hater

The same list didn't have these talent issues sitting top 4 last year. Building a premiership side is often like turning the titanic, but poor Ross seems to be steering it towards a bigger iceberg. A poster who is usually positive and who I rate on this forum I'd like to say the game plan sucks, bu...

You do realise JB has kicked bags of 5 and 4 And has 30-40 Brownlow votes He’s not a super star But he ain’t no dud either - he’s had Best on Ground performances in the AFL He had a couple of shots on goal. Still hopeless. One didn't make the distance and was a wasted kick. The other was his standa...

I get where you're coming from Moods. It wasn't an absolute shocker of a kick, but how many overhead marks does Hill take per game? That's not his strength is it? Anyhow... it's one incident. There are dozens of errors we can find in each game... even from some of our better players. I agree that Hi...

I love watching good games of footy

The Gold Coast game was unbelievable. What a goal feast

The Port game v Hawthorn

And then... tonight...how good is it to see a bottom team beat a top 4 team and West Coast actually kicked over 100 points

No dude

As long as the biased commentators are not commentating... our players will be just fine

If it was on channel 7 with Luke Darcy or Brian Taylor or Cameron Ling, then for sure they'd be crucified

Zaine is reliable. Zaine is great for the club and for the VFL team, but he's not going to be part of our next push up the ladder

He's a fill in only. He's back up. The coaches either back Dougal and support him, coach him, help him or ...hand in their resignation While Dougal is on the list he is the best option. I know he makes a few mistakes, but so does everyone. If we decide to offload Dougal at the end of the year, then ...

It's a rarity for me to be on the same page as my old mate Vortex, but I couldn't agree more with his succinct comments! To be fair, my views on the coach versus talent debate hasn't changed one little bit since before Richo departed, and then before Ratts departed and then I kept expressing the sa...

We all know players can have bad weeks. I’m not a huge fan of Seb Ross, but he’s an experienced midfielder and he rarely plays 2 really poor games in a row When we lost to Hawthorn, everyone knew there’d have to be some changes to the team…but Lyon decided to have 3 of his more experienced players ...

I just think there are a lot of Ross Lyon lovers out there You're blinded by your love 💕 Can't the same be said about Ross Lyon haters?? You're blinded by your hate :evil: :lol: I wouldn't have used that phrase but just wanted to show how ridiculous it is for people to constantly use the term 'Ross...

Let's all make excuses for King and let's all forgive Ross Lyon if he keeps him in the side over the next few weeks (regardless of how King performs)

We pay him like a super star so let's keep treating him like a super star

Why say we got it wrong bringing Phillipou back when no one asked ... I don't mind the honesty. He's at least taking ownership of that decision What I do mind is that you make a decision to drop a player based on poor form over an extended period (Pou has been either poor or below average in his la...

Harsh

A good coach always take responsibility for losses

Talk about other issues. Talk about errors. Talk about misfortune, but share the blame.

Take ownership

I just think there are a lot of Ross Lyon lovers out there

You're blinded by your love

Freo trailled by 10 points early in the 3rd and then kicked 4.12.36 to 1.3.9, so if they had kicked 12.4.76 we would and should have lost by 57 points! Yes we are shyte but what’s the point? Even Lyon said we were only in it cause they missed It’s WHY we are shyte is what matters He also said he wa...

...... we just are not as good as people believe and again it showed last night. Blaming the coach is the easy thing to do and look how that has worked over 150 years . Clubs Like Geelong and Richmond stuck fat in recent years and now have silverware. We currently lack confidence also which is not ...

Or ...is it the game plan and coaching that is as much to blame as anything else
