We averaged 73 Points For last year. We average 77.3 this year. Not sure if my math or my English is out. Doesn’t improvement mean better, and isn’t 77 more than 73? Your English. As stated, the additional 4 points is purely due to a slight improvement in conversion. More Clearances (ave. 6 more th...

Not too worried. Look forward to a few changes for next week. Hopefully see how Hind and Young go. This year is about developing a game plan and finding a few players. We are on track for both. By seasons end I think we will have really got a good idea who the future us for the club. Hopefully Coff...

What is interesting, is that last year we were 18th for Ave. Clearances with 33.0. Last. This year we've improved to 4th at 39.5. So we've improved Clearances dramatically with Longer out of the side - yet our offence is so foul that we've actually gone backwards in Inside 50s. Today, with Longer mi...

Only??? Our problem last year wasn't going inside 50, it was scoring once we got there and the opposition sling shotting into attack. Last year we were 13th for Inside 50s. This year we're 14th. Going into 50 wasn't a problem last year?? Our inside 50’s have been a problem. But if we go in less and...

The idea of the game is to score more than your opposition, which we have done 4 times this year. 4 times in 6 games. 4 games in 22 last year. I think we have improved. If only it was that simple. The idea of the game is to win enough games to qualify for Finals, then to win Finals to qualify for t...

Worth noting too, that the Suns, Melbourne, Crows and Hawthorn are all currently in the bottom 8 for Goals For.

Given that, of course we would expect that our defensive numbers look better.

We averaged 73 Points For last year. We average 77.3 this year. What about points conceded? In fact we are kicking almost a goal extra. If we were averaging 2 goals extra, that would signify a huge increase in average scoring. Last year, average 21.9 scoring shots, and this year down to 21.5. Our l...

Seems silly to criticise Billy longer - he is certainly not the reason we are behind. The main reason is that they made the most of their opportunities and we didn't (until the last ten minutes when they dominated but we scored). Our problem is that we are down one player. Jack Steele needs to &quo...

The game is there for us to prove we are the real deal. We can stand & fight or we fold like last year, lets see what the new coaching staff are made of. The Crows have all the momentum but this is our moment to shine . Go Sainers!! Yep, this second half will show whether we’re pretenders or th...

We can't play the 'slow it down and kick long down the line' thing when Longer can't give a contest.

That only works, and has worked thus far, because Marshall has been able to make it a genuine contest down the line.

Yes, we're not ready to be seen (yet) as legitimate "Top 4" material..... but if this level of football can be maintained on a consistent basis, then WHY NOT???? Well of course if we are top of the ladder in round 20 then it will be a different story. But the way I see the comp right now,...

I think we're currently a 4-10th team. In two months, we'll be a 10-14th team. Those getting themselves worked up are in for a rude shock. We're Ok, but won't be a contender until next year or the year after. Agree that it's a long season but have you been following the results of the other games t...

Maybe Kingsley was the problem?
