Very good footballer

The whole team went really well yesterday. Even those players who weren't that visible went well: Wood and Long didn't do a lot with the ball, but Wood laid 6 tackles, and Long was singled out for praise by Ratten after the game for his defensive pressure inside our forward 50. Again NWM played wel...

A conversation I could imagine might have happened in 2019: "Simon its Gil, you know what we are trying to do on the Gold Coast, so please leave the Bing thing alone" "But Gil Bing wants to come home" "Dont worry Simon, we will throw him some extra bucks to make it worth his...

expand to 22 teams, play each other once and get some integrity back into it. The current design off the draw is inequitable

Move the gold coast suns to Tassie, simple, save a fortune.

Ratten had no plan B to counter the Cats chip chip chippy uncontested gamestyle - absolute nada idea on how to beat it - they just killed our pressure game and slowed it down and we ran around like headless chooks or just marked space - story of our year!! Of course when the ball was there to be wo...

The Recruit wrote: ↑Mon 16 Aug 2021 12:31am Tony74 as pretty much eluded to the fact Ratts needs better coaches around him or his coaching isn't good enough to match it with the best.

So we are either sacking Ratts for Clarkson
Hiring a senior assistant to help Ratts..??

Which is it?

Refresh of assistants

Anyone know what was said?

I know Ben wanted to go to the Saints last contract negotiations. But the offer he received was too good. Now he is enjoying his football with his mates. Bonding should never be underestimated. Everything is a moment in time. Plus the AFL ordering saints to leave it alone and sneaky top up money fo...

Imagine being the backs coach look at your group at the start of the season. Then you have Roberton and Paton done before the season starts. Carlisle Geary Frawley miss basically every game. Then Highmore starts coming good he breaks a hand. Coffield cops injuries and top it off Joyce gets quaranti...

Exit interview time

I wonder how he would go with a proper preseason and a lot of ruck coaching.
I think we will be chasing a better option, so will depend on who's around.

Agree with 4 of your 5 Mrs. Byrnes

Proof that Ratts reads this board.
Let max run and jump at it and look what happens

He’s kicked 2-10 Not good enough The miss from a metre out today was embarrassing His pressure and attack are very good, but he has to do better with conversion. Kent and Long get their opportunities but rarely convert Agree Logic is lost on some They’d keep Kent and punt Long????? Even “elite kick...

Higgins, Bytel and Hannebery IN. They are in our best 22. They need to be in the team - not a sub. We need to play our best side for the next five weeks. We'll win more than we lose if we do. Go all out to win all the games we can, and if finals comes as a result of that - bonus! Feel like Bytel ha...

Good player, should keep, but on a reduced contract. Clearly not 100% fit most of this season

In they come.

Bytel needs to keep banging on the door from Sandy. Hanners, at least a full Sandy game, Higgins a no brainer

The main improvement I have seen in DMac this year is his football judgement. He in previous years always struck me more as a very athletic and quick player who was also fearless and very hard at the contest, but who at times seem to lack football good football judgment. Bad decisions were common, ...

Nice

Great way to win

Was a different game back then
