Re: Billings raring to go after 7 year wait
Jack is a good & required player & has had a reasonable season IMO but I think if he has a good finals series it might just throw the the monkey off his back & self belief might just be the tonic to get him to the next level Exactly. As silly as it sounds, he has an opportunity for a be...

Re: Billings raring to go after 7 year wait
A massive opportunity for Jack to change perceptions that he's a downhill skier. That’s your perception SK. Don’t create a narrative that’s not there. Jack's biggest weakness is his lack of on field leadership. A big reason why Hanners was recruited and it's no accident we play much better when Han...

Re: Keys to beating the dogs
Our game plan hasn't changed much this year with the main obvious tweek around increasing our i50 count and creating potential to score opportunities within 25m to 30m of goal. It is now a strength and the two important cogs in that set play are Sebby and Kent. It's clear they are playing the role o...

Re: You are the coach
If Jones doesn't come up and Jake is still around the team will be unchanged. I watched the replay again last night and Kent was very good, really got us going with his long roaming up the ground and pressing back towards goals. He had the teams highest i50 count of 6 and was 6th for meters gained. ...

Re: From 14th to 6th in 1 season
Saintmatt's view has been we needed to make finals to frank the development of this list however I tend to think we need to win a final. And my view is based on the opposition being the Dogs. We beat them earlier this seaon and we will go in as favorites you would think especially if Naughton doesn'...

Some Pelican thinks it's because he's pigheaded.

Re: Caldwell stats, bio, etc
... Its worth remembering 10 of his games have come in the year GWS are letting him walk out the door. I'm always suspicious of this strange phenomenon. In these days of free agency, it may be that clubs are more wary of putting time and money into a player if it seems like they're going to leave a...

Re: Caldwell stats, bio, etc
Inside player who models his game on Joel Selwood. I read another report that said he was similar to Clay Smith at the same age. Bytel is also an inside mid so it will be interesting how that plays out if he ends up at Moorabbin. Jye has played 11 games, Jack has played 3. Who do you rate higher at...

He can kick and hard as a cat's head. He'd slot into HBF and Clark goes mid. We've only seen Webster in poor teams, I'd like to see h...

Re: Changes for the Elimination Final
Ross won't get dropped. Why would it even be suggested? Like you I do not get the Ross hate here. Ross is a decent B grade mid and a walk up start in the team. It’s not a hate thing at all - I agree that he’s an ok B grade mid. My point was that Kent seems to be the one suggested to go out for Jone...

Re: Fixture for ‘21. Are we in the 1-6 toughest draw?
Do they base it on the home and away? Or after the finals? I refer to the 1-6, 7-12, 13-18 streaming of the fixture into hard - middle - easy fixture for ‘21 Actually, I am thinking Geelong, West Coast, Collingwood and Richmond twice next year might not be so bad as they are a bunch of hacks on the...
