What a sensible thread.. It all makes sense. It beggers belief really... then we have Membrey playing exclusively 50-80m from goal, or defence. Not even a threat to kick a goal, followed by the 2 week disaster of playing Butler (out of form) and Higgins (rushed back when not match fit) Wouldn't mind...

Is Marshall injured? He looked about 100 years old out there and hasn't played that well all year.

A lot of posters appear to be putting the failure down to Ratts but in his defence he has not been dealt a very good hand with very few natural footballers out there. Stop picking them in the team then.. And even non natural players can show some heart and intensity. Those players should be ashamed...

Does the club intend on in informing us to whatever is happening?

If you put gender to one side and just debate AFLW as a product on its own capable of generating a sustainable market and revenue, it is also going to struggle significantly and will only survive with financial support from the men's game. If you grew up on AFLM, you probably aren't attracted to AF...

It would just get lost in it's own forum, I'd rather see info here than have to switch forums completely. I was happy with the idea of putting AFLW in the post title for those so against reading that information. Me too 👍 Fair enough - but if a thread has "Rhi Watt" in the subject line, w...

Cats beat Doggies. Cats now 4th. We're 5th. We play Lions, Cats have a bye, then play WCE. Potentially, we may slip again. Ohhh dear Can someone do the Ladder Predictor for Round 14 After Lions win, and Cats win Geelong play Nth AND WC twice to our once.. thats a free 8 points extra.. We have a tou...

It was fantastic that all 3 played today and they'll all play a big part in our future however, we need a lift in a few areas to compete with Lions, swans etc coming up.
Higgins is a definite and at least one of Clark, billings or butler also come in..

Surely there are better, more important, worthwhile things to discuss than a non event finish to an opposition game where by the losing team coughed up a 30 point lead. A player kicked the ball as the siren went when 80m away from goal, who cares.. yeah it was probably a bit silly or risky but reall...

Definitely have to lift in that area and our best clearance players are already in the team so no excuses..

Sharman keeps the opposition's intercept marking defender honest. We could have used him last week. King would not have been mauled as much as he was if Sharman was there to distract other tall defenders. He's a natural forward. Exactly. I dont necessarily expect Sharmto kick a ton of goals however...

King, Membrey and Gresham all had set shots for goal within easy kicking distance and none from a very difficult angle. Each tried an around-the -corner shot and all missed. I am confident all three would have scored goals with a normal drop punt shot. You mean Higgins... but yes, 3 goals just thro...

The jury finds that the impact was high. Having disposed of the ball, Day was entitled to expect and indeed appeared to expect that he would not then receive forceful contact, which was largely front-on. As such, he was vulnerable and did not take any steps to minimise the impact. The contact to hi...

They have a remarkable culture, one that is increasingly perpetual, and engrained in the fabric of the club. They're either in contention to win flags or putting maximum development into players capable of winning flags. They're the benchmark for consistency. They put all the framework in place to ...

It really shows how bad we were that it's only round 2 but so many die hards have literally given up. I know im hardly looking forward to this afternoons game. It was the dejavu manner in how we played last week, its just demoralizing. Fortunately it is only round 2 so a win today can restart the se...

The Frawley game was lost to the eventual Premiers - so I do not know how we were favoured to win - but I agree with your thoughts on: Big Games Memorial Games Friday Night Games Marquee Games Milestone Games We never truly show up until 1/2 time [As opposed to our regular 1/4 time appearance] Ment...

Keeping in mind its o ly Rd 1 our whole team and playing style has a sense of groundhog day about it. How does a team with a brand new coach look more comfortable with their game plan than a team with coach who's been there 3+ years!? We wont get Clarkson but we'd be negligent not to have an idea of...

It was over the top but its about time the coaches gave it back to the journo's... they're more like gossip columers nowadays than actual journalists anyway..

Interesting that Jack Sheedy his old coach says he can be a bit untidy with the ball but basically said he's a warrior. So sounds like a more skilful version of Jason Blake Untidy yet more skilled than Blake?! Id be thrilled if he's close to as good as Blake... Would be a very valuable part of the ...

We are cursed. McCartin will probably come good as well. We are not cursed FFS. I can’t stand this woe is us crap that comes from some supporters. Supporters are entitled to feel flat about this news not only for Jones but for the club aswell.. As supporters we're all here to win games and Jones no...

There are so many variables that go into a season so it's not a cut and dry decision however, we need to continue to see player development and all around execution of a solid game plan... The reports of our haphazard game plan from the first practice match (albeit, a practice match) is a bit concer...

There just isnt enough good players to have a competition with this many teams at this stage, it just ruins the whole product...

You'd be better off watching a game at your local park..

The AFL :roll: Brad Scott is just another boys club appointment. At this rate players will have to ask opponents if they're ready to get tackled before doing so... At the start of their career players should all sign a document stating they understand the risks involved in playing a professional con...
