Lade is from Port He went their the year after they finished in the 8 and was there when they missed the finals, now he’s left there back in the 8 I think you’ll find a similar trend at Richmond. Maybe a coincidence but slow ball movement follows him. Lade's role predominantly is setups at stoppage...

I’m not knocking Seb but feel he’s better utilised following an opponent to the ball. He will naturally find his own footy anyway & is good defensively. He lacks the skills to play outside the contest or on a back flank setting up play.

Who is the Kermit bloke, I’m intrigued

Can someone email the link to the board?

as far as Im concerned AR has been a dead man walking for two seasons so I can now hold my breath till the announcement which will be imminent and less life threatening & the fat lady wont even get out of breath On much more personal note - I am wondering if I & others will get an apology f...

A bit of noice around that Carlton are looking at Roos as DoC & Voss as head coach. We know North want Horse. Shaw their fall back. It’s very clear that Lethlean wants Scott but I think the combined efforts of Riewoldt & Bassett will ensure the club appoints someone appropriate & deserv...

Richo

The line coaches are very responsible for each line they look after. It’s not the old days where there is one authoritarian in charge. Example When Charlie Cameron was going beserk, AR asked Playfair if a move needed to be made, Playfair indicated he was still the best match up, so AR backed that c...

Around the time we had our first couple of consecutive losses, Caroline Wilson said on Footy Classified, “Richo has gone back to his old ways” - this was in relation to Richo micro managing & refusing to take on board advice from his line coaches. A knock that has followed Richo for a number of ...

I would like to see him used more offensively. He can win his own footy, so instead of instructing him to sit off the ball & tackle his opponent when they get it, instruct him to get the pill himself. Ross should be playing a more negating role to free up Steele.

Bevo turned the Dogs around from a basket case to a flag inside 2 years. Fagan has taken the Lions from wooden spooners to top 4 in 18 months. The wheel can turn quickly. Fix the culture, fix performance. It starts with leadership (on & off field). Must get this next coaching appointment right o...

I’d like to know if anyone actually thought we’d play finals? We won 4 games last year, what exactly was going to see us win another 8/9 games this year? With all due respect, this is the wrong question to ask. In July 2017 when we were 6th on the ladder after flogging Richmond did anyone think we ...

Fagan is like GT without the ego.

The most important role is that of SL’s. He conducted a review & which highlighted a number of key issues: - recruitment: Trout replaced by Libba. Gubby hired. - leadership/development: Slator, Hanneberry. - coaching: overhaul of assistants. - list: mature recruits, Kent, Hanneberry Richo’s remi...

It’s a good topic because even know I disagree with the premise it opens up discussion about many failings of the club & that they need to be rectified to improve. Of course the position of the head coach is not overrated. The head coach oversees &/or contributes to all footy department dec...

Where did you hear that?

Only 1 game out plus %. Pretty amazing. It’s not that simple however I can’t be bothered explaining the intricacies to you. But I’ll give you a head start: Have a look at who we’ve beaten & their ladder position, our percentage, scoring for & against & the last 8 or so weeks. Not much d...

Leading the B&F for mine. Of course he is, the threads saying he’s effectively been the best player in the afl for the about a third of the season. A b&f at the club isn’t much chop when so close to the bottom of the ladder. Best player for his last 4 matches which is closer to 20% rather t...
