It wouldn't matter what game plan we have when we don't hit our targets, don't improve our marking contests and kick more points than goals. Our outdated game style might look a hell of a lot better if/when these issues were addressed first, however, it must be difficult for the kids without much experienced onfield leadership. Perhaps the coaching staff does need a revamp, but unless they can turn a bunch of kids into men overnight, we'll just have to get used to the slow burn I reckon.cwrcyn wrote: ↑Mon 30 Jul 2018 5:45pm Listened to him on SEN. Was as disappointed as us with our method into forward fifty and our poor conversion. He stated that the problem was method (which means coaching), and made reference to bombing the ball in. He made a strong case for us to chase Sam Mitchell and Blake Caracella, and made it clear he thought Richardson needed help (just as Buckley and Hardwick did before they had their assistant team revamped). He also stated our method was outdated and other clubs had moved on from our type of game plan years ago.

I hated King as a player. He was super aggressive and pushed the boundaries of what was acceptable. However, i do respect his opinions on the game, and I think he's been pretty respectful of St Kilda given the absolute shite we've served up this year. He knows his stuff, and he knows our coaching panel is failing the players. He also knows we're lacking dynamic midfielders. Okay, nothing we don't already know ourselves, but he's prepared to say it without ripping us to shreds in the process.

Re: David King on Saints today
Like Derm, if you listen to them talk without seeing them, then they make sense. I have listened to both this way much this season and agree with what you say.Cordz2 wrote: ↑Tue 31 Jul 2018 10:53pm+1cwrcyn wrote: ↑Mon 30 Jul 2018 8:54pm King has been very careful with his words about us all season.

For similar reasons I have stopped watching AFL 360 with Richo. Funny though, I think Robbo must be off the plonk cause he has made more sense this year than the last 3 put together.
Actually, the whole business really hasn't ripped in to us all that much this year??? they must just be too embarrassed to...well apart from Roos, early on when he thought there might be job in it. Having said that, he has been sounding like he's on the piss a bit lately, they can't even get sense out of him on OTC. Fool
But yeah Kingy, he is reasonable to listen to occasionally, without seeing him talk that is.

Re: David King on Saints today

they (Syd) are setting themselves for us to take a couple
we do seem to trade with Syd from a 'good terms' perspective
