Re: Let's Talk About the Elephant In the Room

Of interest to me was that Owens assumed the up the ground option in the last quarter, taking some strong and timely marks

This was one of Membrey’s signature contributions

Wood going forward saw a restructure, Wood moving from a up and back wing to a key forward

Re: Windhager

And there is the knock I have always had on Webster He loses his feet in a game where you need to stay on your feet Plus, being left footed, his disposal has the grace left footers seem to have - except where do they finish up?

Re: West Coast recent home record

Re: Hunter Clark!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Weagles Round 12 2024

This is against WCE - albeit in Perth. But, with Marshall receiving a bath our midfield plodders are being shown up once again. Sinclair is being outnumbered. Clark is in the thick of it when under the ruck contest. And that leaves, starting with the plodders Ross, Steele and Dow (I thought they sai...

Look at who Essendon has played so far this season and their winning margins (including against us) Yes, they beat GWS but when GWS was in a slump And they drew with Collingwood whose form is equally as problematic as is Essendon’s Then look at their losses, the size of those losses and who the loss...

Re: Robbing Peter to pay Paul?

The other observation I have is that tackles are not rewarded - so you can just hold onto the ball in a tackle choosing when you want to dispose of it We just do not have the bull who sees ball, gets ball including bruising the opposition in the process, standing upright in the tackle they invite an...

Agree entirely These days there is a hell of a lot of scragging and blocking around the contest, so what we need is someone (or more( who can crash and bang, get the ball and feed it forward to the advantage of our runners The only player doing this is Marshall, and when he getting hands on the ball...

Unless there is a late change for the AFL game
