Re: RoMa in the ruck

Are you saying Marshall only plays well in losses and when he doesn’t play well we win

Obviously that’s wrong, and would take little research to prove it’s not the case

Ro is a great player. That simple

Re: “Innovate or perish: Why the numbers just don't stack up for Ross Lyon“

God Fk me dead Tony has been on here for years backing in the coaches and the players. Did it with the previous 2 coaches. Grain of salt Proof is in the pudding - not their little drills they do at training which I’ve seen umpteen times On Owens You want the players with poor disposal (and yeah, Owe...

Re: Coaches votes ..round 10

Well

We were pumped

Only Marshall could really say he performed well enough

Maybe 1st half for Owens

Some others were serviceable but not significant

Re: Sack Lyon

At the end of the day It was the 2014 draft that killed us I distinctly remember AR telling Elshaug we HAD to get the pick 1 right. He had concerns over Paddy’s weight and not overly dominating in is 18s year. Elshaugh was adamant he was our man. Hugh Goddard was a steal at pick 21 - did do an Achil...

Re: Sack Lyon

In what season did Alan Richardson have a top 4 (even a top 8) list? I think pretty much every year (except 1) we finished pretty much as expected. The fact we won 11 and 12 in 2016 and 2017 beggars belief Chris Pelchen (the architect behind our decade of failure) gutted the list. We bottomed out wh...

Re: Ye old Cordy

Wilkie plays at a high standard regardless He’s a good player Whether it’s Howard, Cordy or whoever play deep on the biggest forward - Wilkie rarely gets beaten on the 2 I remember when Wilkie had to be switched onto Harry McKay because he was giving Howard a bath and whilst giving up 13cm and 10+ k...

Re: Crab watch

What?!

Playing 170-200+ games disappointing

Jono Rouke was disappointing
Mitch Thorpe was disappointing

His selection at 3 was the error (in hindsight) not his output.

Re: RoMa in the ruck

Does Marshall actually do it that much??? He had 37 hit outs So he didn’t do it at least 37 times We hang on to small details to illustrate a point which often by numbers is actually a fallacy I reckon he did it 6-8 times. And really, it should be a 50/50 ahead of the ball and actually put a lot of ...

Re: RoMa in the ruck

How many times does he actually do that? 10% And it’s kicked in dirty as a 50/50 ball. Why don’t the forwards predict/anticipate and engage their opponents? Marshall is an amazing player Would you rather a ruckman get 30 and take 10 marks and win 25 - 30 hit outs Or A ruckman get 10 and 3 marks and ...

Re: Bonner to Hill, Freo goal

It is a part of Lyons game plan to get the ball in Bonners hands as often as possible (and Nas)

You do realise JB has kicked bags of 5 and 4

And has 30-40 Brownlow votes

Re: For the "In Ross we Trust" brigade

Not sure Crouch was on managed minutes

He played till the final siren and didn’t seem to spend any excessive time on the bench except for the usual rotations
