Re: We are kidding ourselves.
End of last year we were on the rise and a destination club. 9 rounds in and that's changed to on the slide and on the nose. There are supporters who knew well enough not to believe we were on the rise and a destination club as a result of the 2023. Nearly every neutral and pundit in the AFL world ...

Re: Thank you St Kilda
That’s not what Basset thinks, Beg to differ. Listen to the press conference held by Bassett to announce Ross had been signed as coach. Also Read his letter to members from a few weeks ago. Ross was given a mandate to rebuild. It's just been sold to us as a restumping, or rewiring, or restoration o...

Re: RTB's Presser
I remember well the time around the club when Lyon left years back- it was common knowledge that he wasn't interested in rebuilding teams. The Lyon I used to notice at training back then looks and sounds a lot different than the one I've seen at training now. Back then he was clearly driven and who...

Re: RTB's Presser
Not that this will console anyone, however I said from the outset of RLs appointment that he doesn't have the "magic wand", I kept asking the question, "what magic trick does he have that no other coach in the history of the game has possessed"? I tried to explain that it wasn't ...

Re: Membrey should have been subbed off, Not Hayes!
But the thing is... you have to coach that out of him. Lift your game Max or you're playing VFL son A good coach will get the best out of the talent he has. Either you motivate him and get him to perform or ship him off Let's see what the magician can do with that wand I will incredibly surprised i...

Re: Membrey should have been subbed off, Not Hayes!
Interesting Vortex that King should be added, why not Webster? Apparently he was going to be making everyone in the opposition's F50 look over their shoulder after his courageous practice match act. We need quality mids with pace and good disposal. Plugger would struggle with how we kick the ball i...

Re: Membrey should have been subbed off, Not Hayes!
I'd add King into the debate about who should have been subbed off.
Ross needs to make a statement soon.
Not only meeting expectations for a 4DP
But just not working hard enough without ball in hand
Which is a bloody lot

Re: We deserve every bit of criticism
one of the youngest lists in the comp. Lyon was given a mandate to rebuild the list He's only 31 games in to that rebuild Expectation of being better than a top 4 side is what is causing all of the angst. Possibly will be bottom 4 until about 2026. We are playing the kids which is what many supporte...

Re: Membrey should have been subbed off, Not Hayes!
said in the lead up to this game not to expect too much from Hayes in his second game back from a long lay off, sports scientists would have planned to manage his time in his second game and subsequent games after that. He needs to build a block of games to get the conditioning back.

Re: Is it time to play Pou at HBF
Are you implying that junior talent watchers should be able to predict what that player will become once they enter the AFL system? Once they're drafted, it is up to the clubs to develop them. Sheehan, and others like him, simply talk about the player they've observed. Not they player they will end...

Re: Is it time to play Pou at HBF
Be mindfull of the fact that the marketeers who write the draft bios also write the blurbs for wine labels. Without being disrespectful, I'd trust Kevin Sheehan's words over yours anyday. Would have forgotten more about junior talent than all of us on this site would know. Mattaes Phillipou State: ...

Re: Is it time to play Pou at HBF
I said to my wife once that I thought that she was cheeky but very approachable...I stole that line from a wine label but she thought I was clever and witty.
Sometimes wine labels can give you good feedback is the moral of the story.

Re: Is it time to play Pou at HBF
He’s in the mould of Bont / Fyfe / Tom Green. Why? What have you seen from his 30 games so far that allows the comparison? He’s that big bodied midfielder that kicks goals. It was why he was drafted. Are you for real xD ? Or taking the piss? Do you not watch the draft? Pou was rated as a similar pl...
