And yet we kick goals fine when there's no pressure on.Do we have a specialist goalkicking coach? If not then we need to get one. If so then we need to sack him and get a different one.
I can pretty much guarantee that by preseason next year, we will have forgotten Slowne's performances and think he's the gun mid we build around. We seem to have our memory wiped every summer.Worrying signs
Thinking our rebuild has finished
Tex looking for the body again rather than attacking the ball
Filthy playing soft and bruise free football
Resorting to Sloane in middle
Probably losing our first touch mid at end of year because of stubbornness of coaches eg crouch
Defence allowing ball out back time and time again
The same players missing crucial goals game after game
Not trusting Pedlar Harry and Soligo in middle
Fog not providing the focal point we need
Way ahead
Start next week by dropping a few and make a statement that their effort is not good enough eg filthy
Play some of the youngsters in the middle for longer periods of time
Give gollant a go he deserves his chance for the inanimate object Thilthorpe
Bring back Nankervis who did not deserve to get dropped
Sloane never should play large minutes incentre square again
Make midfield and key backs priority for our draft and trade plans
Select players who can kick and hit a target
Would love to see Dowling play. He's got it.Given it's a dead rubber, instead of Hateley, who we know isn't AFL standard, why not bring in Dowling and give him a taste of senior footy?
I don't know if it's a "nothing" game. On the one hand, yeah we can't make finals and we're probably better off tanking it rather than winning and achieving nothing but pushing our draft pick down a few spots.It's a nothing game.
Play all the AFL listed guys who played SANFL this week.
A trip to Perth and reward for a good SANFL season.

Cover a 70 goal season? Walker kicks half that and we'd need another player of Rankine's calibre to cover it.Our forward line os the least of our worries, even if his out put drops, I think we can cover
We need a psychologist, not a skills coach.Do we have a specialist goalkicking coach? If not then we need to get one. If so then we need to sack him and get a different one.
I agree with Mutineer in that he needs to clean up his foot disposals but I'm seeing real signs of quality. Smart football and good hands. I quite liked Bonds game on the weekend to. Let's hope both see alot of SANFL midfield time in the first half of 2024.Would love to see Dowling play. He's got it.
We already copped that treatment in the 2012 prelim.What would it take for you to stop caring. Being completely ****ed in a gf like Sydney?
I've still never seen the last 10 minutes of the 2017 GF and never will. Every bit of momentum we was killed by umpires.We already copped that treatment in the 2012 prelim.
2017 Grand Final wasn’t Sydney levels of shafting but regardless of the players performance it was still pretty blatant.

I'm like you ....infuriated that all year, our KPD have continually missed the ball in spoils, and allowed the ball over the back .....it's been a theme of the seasonWorrying signs

LOL .....so we lost the 2017 GF because of Umpires ?I've still never seen the last 10 minutes of the 2017 GF and never will. Every bit of momentum we was killed by umpires.
I see comments like this about players and I wonder why and what we saw to draft him?Field kicking is going to need a lot of work before he's going to be a threat at AFL level IMO, short passing is a work in progress and a fair way off it currently.
This!Do we have a specialist goalkicking coach? If not then we need to get one. If so then we need to sack him and get a different one.
Please watch this (it's only 6 minutes) and draw your own conclusions:LOL .....so we lost the 2017 GF because of Umpires ?
Please watch this (it's only 6 minutes) and draw your own conclusions:
sorry, what??.....in all the years of watching footy, I've never known who the umpires are from match to match
I worry we will go backwards next year if Tex can't carry us again.
Just that the umpire to player mistakes is about 50:1sorry, what??
I don't know who the Umpires were in the 2017 GF were, either. What's the relevance, please?
Plz watch that youtube vid. The replays and comments are very clear.
Please watch this (it's only 6 minutes) and draw your own conclusions:
Umpire-to-player, 50:1?? Do you mean other way around?Just that the umpire to player mistakes is about 50:1
singsEXCEPT BY GOAL UMPIRES !!! ......50% of their calls, pre Arc, have obviously been wrong .....point the arrow there
View attachment 1783325
I'm only going off how often the arc overrules the Goal Umpire .....seems an awful lotsings
"Even when the questions are candid, my arrows miss ..."
But not those in that gif of yours .
Again, not sure if you're serious --- pre-ARC, 50% of Goal Umpire calls were wrong?
