Re: Training footage
Caution is the better part of valour. All three are just naturally talented and can just play the 50 and leave the running the runners. Get them strong and match fitness will come.

Re: DFC
It’s not a negative (as long as it doesn’t distract?) I mentioned the pool and the stand. I want a direct link between the DFC and the players getting better. Helping us win more games. I don’t give a rats about supporting Jo Blow down the street There would be no funding for the elite training fac...

Re: DFC
I just don’t see how the DFC contributes to StK winning a premiership? I mean, from a club point of view what’s the point of it?! I'm not sure. I think it aroused quite a bit of interest when the funding for our first class facilities, was being sought. Now it's joint intitiatives, lead by speciali...

Re: Will Keeler be the real deal??
I also think Ross was perfect to take over He had all those developing guns moving into their prime He added high performance standards and strategy However, neither would have been any good (results wise) without the list they had at their disposal Clearly, we need to acknowledge, that while the l...

GT is a General. Diplomacy never came into it. He was brilliant and was never going to push the AFL's agenda and they weren't going to let him win a flag.

Re: Let's talk about Jason Heatley
Footballers become professional athletes but they're mainly footballers too. The 1highly committed and disciplined guys stood out back then. I was lucky to spend a bit of time at the club as teenager and got to go into the changerooms a lot. My dad wouldn't go in, too much smoke and the snacks in th...

Re: Will Keeler be the real deal??
So what is it? Coaches control the players And Lyon couldn’t control Lovett And Lyon is not responsible for Lovett And Ratten was responsible for some players Make your mind up?! My view Lyon is a good coach, who is not immune to making mistakes or mismanaging some players Lyon had relative success...

Re: Will Keeler be the real deal??
For every Lovett that got a start there are 50 who didn't but managed to play football without the scrutiny that comes with AFL football. My dad grew up in the days VFL clubs were local clubs and some very violent and predatory men, who became legends of the game would probably, would be in jail. Th...

Re: Will Keeler be the real deal??
I think we want to believe in a coaches impact 1/ because we want to believe in 2/ we want someone to blame if things go wrong 3/ and if they are replaced we can believe again!

I guess Ross set the rules for the environment and Ball told him to stick it in his trumpet. Fortius Quo Fidelius.

Re: Will Keeler be the real deal??
No It’s a simplification that one believes a coach can ‘control’ things He can set expectations He can implement a game plan He can manage assistants But ultimately performance and adherence is up to the player’s attitude and ability This notion that players are disciples of a coach and they will b...
