hrmm funny that 2006 form slump fell into finals ?!?!? Not at all similar. We were running at full strength but the players were not playing for the coach. After round 14 (we had just beaten the Bulldogs) we were 11-3 and the doggies were 10-4. We then went L-W-L-L-L-L-W-L to limp into 6th spot wit...

The St Kilda decision to sack Thomas came totally out of the blue. What football club sacks a coach that has taken the team to three consecutive finals, has the support of the players and has been very innovative in his approach? Classic St Kilda sacking IMO....we did it to stan alves too...we are ...

On A minor tangent. I would argue that the 5 players on this list are the greatest players these clubs have had in their respective histories. Would the rest of the forum agree with this or suggest a superior player? All of these players would be regarded by their respective club's supporters as be...

Re: Sheahan: Saints goal-starved - Herald-Sun Article

Lyon defended Gehrig, who has struggled in the past fortnight. "The fact is he's 31 and, in talking to him, it's not easy for a power forward these days. "You used to be able to play one-on-one footy inside 50 and isolate, but you see Jonathan Brown, you see Nick Riewoldt, (Matthew) Pavli...

Experience isn't the problem. We had one player under the age of twenty in our side, and he was one of our best. The problem as I see it is that we have too many guys - of all ages - who aren't pulling their weight . Good point The obvious question is "why aren't they pulling their weight?&quo...

Meaningless when you look at Hawthorn and Port Adelaide with 16 and the Kangaroos with 13.

It shows what ou can do with a game plan where the players are encouraged to take risks and a little self belief.
