Re: Aberration or reality check or both?
One thing stands out to me. When we are getting soundly beaten, we turn the game into a combo of rugby union and Auskick. Rolling mauls. We strangle and smother the free-flow of the game for a stalemate until we can get the ball out the back for Higgo and others to run into a vacant fwd line. We can...

Re: Which Half Back this week
So was it the unlucky bounce in 2009 or more this unfortunate game plan? It needs to be asked at some stage. Shaw, Thomas, O'Brien etc. kept rebounding everything at will in 2010 .. we made them superstars. Enright, Kelly and Milburn destroyed us in 2009 ... we gave them too much latitude. Martin 4...

Re: Which Half Back this week
I don't like commentators but they made fun of our guys guarding grass and not oppo.
You look at the disposals for Doggies and it was 100 more than us.
Pathetic

Potential Blow-outs
Based on what we've seen so far, Here's my tips for worrying games where our poor midfield and fwd line will see us get touched up badly. You might call me a fool, but look at the style that had us beat Pies, Tigers; and get close to Cats n Giants. We devolved into rugby scrums, like Auskick. Becaus...

Re: Callum gets a rap
AFL site has him ranked pretty low on AF points.
I think he took 4 marks and got 11 disposals for the game.
One of his worst games in RW &B.

Re: Votes v Dogs
5 Windhager
4 Hill
3 Wilson
2+1 Nobody
Wilkie was soundly beaten whenever Naughton and him were close together. His dump kicks outta defence were to nobody.
Sinclair got under 20 touches and I don't know him anymore.
NAS was fumbly and flustered.

Re: Ross Lyon had a slap in the face tonight
RTB said last yr, after a crappy game, it was a 'mulligan'.
I'm worried he thinks the same about tonight.
Presser- he said 'it's not us' as if it were another mulligan.
It needs to be examined, identified, and fixed

Re: Team vs Dogs
Butler should be the sub.
Garcia, the teenager, did a lot more in limited time.
I've never been a fan of Butler, far too showy and tries all the trick shots

Re: Team vs Dogs
Jamarra out, is great for us.
He's potentially a 3-4 goal guy, and can set up others.

Re: Could we get a selection surprise this week?
My changes would be
In: Jones (not as sub), Garcia to bench
Outs: Butler, Sharman (Cooper was good in the Pies game but otherwise ineffective)
It means we lose height but Sharman wasn't giving much presence in the air anyway

Re: In Garcia, Windhager Out Hastie Jones
Geez...
I would've dropped Butler before Jones.
Only 2 games, small sample size, but
Avg disp 8.5
Turnovers 3.0
His cheeky goal was a silly party trick that worked, but no other team will let him do that again

Re: Membrey's form
I'll add to my comments by saying his value in dropping back to take saving marks, which he could be relied upon to do when needed, is still there, but he is being negated by being a bit shorter than most oppo mids who are at least 6-10 cm taller. I still have him as best 23, but eventually he'll be...

Re: Membrey's form
Skunk is now one of those guys who has lost too much skill and touch.
Up until the covid era, he could be relied on to have very good games at the rate of 5-6 decent games per 10 games.
His clean touch and skill are gone for good
