Re: Jack Carroll
People saying he is an improvement on Hotton are missing the point entirely. Hotton was not in our best 22 and subsequently was delisted. For this to be worthwhile he has to be better than someone who is in our best 22 and I simply cannot see who he would be better than. We are full of average foot...

Re: Brayden Pruess
I'm pretty sure he is spruiking that his body isn't cooked - with 26 games to his name, there is fair chance he hasn't worn it out just yet They must be looking at him (amongst others no doubt) you would hope We definitely need someone else I would also be checking young guys with potential to be mo...

Re: King for Petracca?
Every man and his dog knows we should have taken Petraca instead of McCartin - even at the time there were a only a few crazies who would argue the case for McCartin over Petraca - unfortunately a few of those worked for the saints But that horse bolted a long time ago - Petraca for early draft pick...

Re: Who is our "enforcer?'
From my arm chair I can tell you that AFL football is still a tough and physical game They may not be behind the play king hits ( thankfully) but there is still a lot of physicality about it - I’m glad I’m not out there on the field Watch Windhager going about his business on Friday - he wasn’t just...

Re: Set Shot Routine solved - for $4
I also mentioned Bens hook shot miss from 35m out nearly dead in front when discussing our (lack of ) trained set shot routine on some other thread -
I was yelling at him ( on the Telly) as if he was still a saints player missing - that’s how frustrated I am with the way we go about it

Re: Set Shot Routine solved - for $4
Does it come with instructions?
1. Don’t spin the ball while you’re walking in because you might mix up the arrow and the kick zone
2..
Probably only needs a few basic rules
I wonder if the league will let us swap balls for our set shots ?

Re: If the shoe had been on the other foot

Re: Poor Scoring
They need a goal kicking coach
They need to learn how to kick a drop punt for a set shot on goal
The good teams do this well

Re: Just get it going forward
The short chipping round the backline put great pressure on us and totally took the pressure off them and resulted in some ridiculous turn over goals

Re: Crab watch

Re: Kicking at goal
The rot set in after we hired that corkhead, Ben Dixon. We went from bad to worse under his "tutelage". Don't forget his best "technique" was to get the players to imagine the best sex they'd ever had, as they were lining up, and visualize their partner in that union standing be...

Re: Brayshaw - leave thread here as it affects the future of footy in general
It baffles me that anyone could think that this was a deliberate act. Of course training would be different, just like he probably wouldn’t tackle as hard at training his own teammates as he would the opposition in a preliminary final. MB. If you watched this collision in slow motion numerous times...

Re: Jack Bytel training with Collingwood
His main problem seemed to be he couldn’t take his opportunities when he had them to play in the senior side - couldn’t find the ball If I remember correctly he had a shocker last time he played for us at senior level Definitely seemed to have potential but couldn’t show it when it mattered As someo...

Re: Sharman will become the GOAT in 2024....
As someone has already said Sharman is a smart player and has the skill to deliver the ball where he wants it on a fairly consistent basis
As a result he is involved in some great team plays and is as reliable as anyone else in the team shooting for goal
I think he is definitely best 23
