Before the start of the season I had us 4 - 2 after six rounds (penciled in losses to Geelong and Port) We are 3 - 3 with Richmond (TD) Collingwood (TD) Brisbane (Gabba) and Melbourne (TD) to come in the next 4 matches - we need to win at least 3 of these games (probably losing to Brisbane) It's no...

if the whole team played like Max, we'd be right up there with the best.... It's not about his playing ability.

He will come out and say we are 3 and 3 at the moment, I am happy with where we are at. What a crock, he should not be happy with any loss or anything less than 100%. The supporters are not happy Ross. Listen and do something about it. Look what happened last year, got lots of pressure and changed ...

My choice for Captain, he would rather eat broken glass than be soft. he genuinely hurts when we lose.

My hat is off to Max.

I think it's the players, not Ross. Just not enough heart atm. what they have to realise is that the way they played in Harvey's 350th. is what is required every single week, not just when things are right

Re: I'm sick of barracking for St Kilda...

Never thought I'd say it. But I did, sitting on the coach, during the second quarter....It's just constant pain. Gee I hope they bring something out during the second half. Because for some reason, this first half of football has just hurt more than all the others. Maybe its thats numskull Javovich...

As a coach, I thought Grant was the new messiah and I was a big fan of his. But these new people, led by Ross, they have taken it to a new level, I mean the proof will be his success of course, but if you look at his recent history the man must be a genius! don't play down his effect on our win last...

I actually think you need several. Thuggery is still a big part of the game. Sniping, hurting, and scaring the opposition wins matches. Simple as that. Like it or not.

I think Blakey fits the bill of; DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER !! Agreed, that's what he was being played as most of the time in the second half of last season. Blake is a quality player combining pretty awesome size with way above average overhead ability, excellent stamina, strong running and linking prop...

When we are playing good footy, our H/F line, ie. Roo & Kosi are moving between there and H/B; it just makes it less one dimensional and very hard to play on. there's no reason a fit "G" can't do this too

Re: 7 Players who impressed me!

Jarryn Geary - Plenty of poise and smarts coming off the flanks, skills were great, decision making just as good. The thing that impresses me most about geary is how he got this far, works his behind off, off the rookie list. started in the Casey 2's, earnt his spot in the 1's and made it impossible...

But it's all irrelevant now after the fire - Frankston is a dead-set certainty. And it looks like cricket may be on the agenda for Moorabbin Reserve.

Thanks brother, I was at the game but never looks as good as on tv

I was paying much attention to the Rucks, this is truly exciting, they were swapping faster than the mids, obviously trying to get Gardi fit.

IMO the team structure should be that which allows Gram to do what he is best at, namely run and break lines. Opposition coaches know that and try to make him accountable, which is the weakness in his game. RL has to respond quicker this year to that tactic, as his drive from the half back line is ...
