Re: Geary
Cant bag the captain. Cmon. FfS. Off limits serious. Whether he is a very average player who somehow has inspired this team to sh!t on an entire season, is irrelevant....wait a gosh darn minute. I think Richo can add Geary to his end of year why I suck b@lls but deserve to stay presentation....well ...

Re: I feel like the hickey v longer debate is over
Longer has value. When he is playing his best he works amazing in a 2 ruck set up. But like Hickey either injury or confidence has caused him to suck. That said in best form Hickey is faster, he can jump more athletically ( meaning reach twist and bend) he can bend and scoop the ball, he can hand ba...

Re: Match thread v Blues
Well a win is a win, unless we want high draft picks but we definitely dont because beating piss poor last place teams give the young fellas huge balls they can use for years to come.

Re: Rumour: Harves to coach us in 2020
I have never pretended to be a ITK, I'm genuinely your basic pompous patronizing arse hat.

Re: Selection
I said I would wait and see how the game went before I comment on selection. My take: Won't single out players but will discuss some of the poor execution, and selecting players who have had more than enough chances and are not up to it. Some of our selectors need to have a look at their decisions ...

Re: We really should pound Carlton.
If we can not beat Carlton....well, it's likely we won't. When we should win easy we seem to fail, we should have smashed the Suns with so many of their starters out instead we scrape by, Demons, I actually won 113.60 betting Saints win by 5 or less.

Re: So what did we learn from today..?
We learned that if we play a team that absolutely can not score a single point in the last quarter (Suns) or play a decent team sliding backwards quick we just might win by 1 or 2 points if we play our best.

I think we all regardless of position are very pleased watching some younger players lift.

I wonder what would have been if we had hired a director of footba...

Firstly, well done. I'm very pleased with a win. Secondly, unless we win 13 games Richo and co have to go. In a five year rebuild we have to improve on field and on the ladder. Regardless of this amazing season of 3 wins - at least 1 was mildly decent, but the Suns win was rubbish against a team who...

Re: Sack the Coach (revisited)
I agree the assistants are needing to move on, but Richo is the number one person to fire. He is ultimately responsible for the direction of the team. He has little to no game plan.
He seems unlikely to change.

Backs to wall stuff was this game Jigster. Our most in form player goes down early and then another in the third to make it 2 on the bench. The team was dying a horrible, slow and tortuous death.
