Re: Coaching Appointments

Are u just naming gun ex AFL forwards??

None of those coach at all

Why not Reiwoldt then??? Get him back from Texas!

I jest of course, but I’d definitely look for a better forward line coach!

Re: Battle

Secret sauce is pretty obvious

It’s tied to size of contract and length of contract

Re: What’s going on with Owens?

That’s a position- not a measure of performance

You can be great in any position

I see him as an Aaron Hamill type, was hoping for a Nat Fyfe type but he doesn’t look to have the running capability

He played ok in the same role in 2023

Only difference possibly is less ruck time

Re: Coaching Appointments

Sydney got

Blakey (pick 10) matched bid
Heeney pick 18
Mills pick 3

That’s the only top 5 pick they had for over a decade

They developed those kids through their academy pathway

Re: Battle

I think they’ll give us first round compo, to appease us and to try and improve us!

If we get pick 5 for a 25yo Battle

We should take it

Pick 12-18 is about his worth imo - and he is OOC and we need to rebuild

Re: Coaching Appointments

If you are saying Sydney only succeeded due to 3 academy picks (which they bid matched) you’d be mistaken Shrewd trading, good drafting, good development , well coached and very well run! Unlike us who got priority picks for being inept, mismanaged those picks So pretty much the opposite And they wo...

Re: Coaching Appointments

Yeah, I am mistaken

They have only had 1 selection inside the top 5 in the last Decade
Mills (3)

And only a few inside the top 10
Morris (6)
Blakey (10)

Re: Coaching Appointments

Longmire is a proven coach. Sydney have never bottomed out. I think they have only had 2 top 5 picks in the last decade!

Coaching Appointments

Historically poor decisions- in hindsight Obviously in the post Jeans era, there were multiple changes and we struggled to get the right fit For a short time Mike Patterson and Jezza did alright, but were moved on! Jewell was a premiership coach who didn’t work, Gellie was out of his depth as a seni...

Re: What’s going on with Owens?

At his peak, Dusty was a clearance mid, who used his power and fend off to explode out stoppage Similar to what Harley Reid and JHF They are the most valuable players in footy Inside/outside power mids who push forward Bontempelli, DeGoey, Petracca, Fyfe They are not in and under mids, not defensive...

Re: On The Couch tonight is a must watch

We’ve won games. Players have played well in those games.

Sinclair - Gun and Dual AA
Marshall - Gun and in the AA squad last season
Wilkie - Gun and AA last year
Steele - Gun and AA in 2020 & 2021

NWM - Gun and future AA

Isn’t that what an inside bull does Outside of Dusty Are there any other inside bulls that are good kicks Cripps - no Danger - no DeGoey - yes Petracca - 50-50 Dunkley - no Oliver - no Yeo - 50-50 Tom Green - no If you wanted to hide poor kickers - inside mid is the place to do it.

Re: You reap what you sow

Choco Williams is insane! Completely nuts!

Remember he was just sacked from Port at the time. His premiership was 8 years beforehand.

In saying that, I would’ve been very tempted to go for Choco as Head of Development and Senior Assistant
Beveridge as Senior coach
AR as head of football

In the VFL

You don’t leave good kids there too long

He should’ve gone back in r16 last year for a month
