One of today's learnings is that Eric Hipwood is scary.

They're 33 and 35, there's no long term that involves them.

The point is that they aren't holding anything or anyone back. The cupboard is bare and things are going to get worse not better when these types of players go. Same with Wines, same with McKenzie (injured now but can someone tell me which, if any, of our defenders are actually better than him?).
None of our defenders are better than McKenzie
 
Butters is edging closer and closer to a suspension.
Honestly I'm getting a bit sick of his shit. Amazing player but needs to cut that nonsense out and just play the ****ing game. His head is clearly not in the right place when he loses focus like this. The ****ed thing is, if he can rack up 35 and a goal while distracted, imagine what he could do if he just put his head down and played for the ball all the time.
You never see Bontempelli, Daicos (as much as I hate him), Heeney etc. get caught up in that stuff. They are there for the ball and nothing else.

As much as Berry went down like he's made of paper, I honestly hope he gets suspended for 2 weeks for this accumulation of charges he's building up and learns a lesson.

Why aren't the coaches ripping in to him for this crap?

"Geez, it's just the way Zak plays the game, we love the aggression that he brings for us and we accept that sometimes he'll cross the line"
**** off with that shit. He's like a dog without a leash. The coaching is PATHETIC.
 
You’re dreaming, we got JHF an ex SA lad. We attract fringe players mainly.
Even more important what big name coaches have we attracted, look at the bum line up we have mustered together now lead by Ken.
Look at who’s running the club, a morning show host while other teams attract experienced and successful CEO’s like Carlton have.
We couldn’t attract a fly to horse shyt.
Crows are in the same boat as us that’s why they have been rebuilding for 20 years.
There is no quick fix, it’s hard times ahead.
Reluctantly have to agree with this. Sad & difficult times ahead.

Thanks for posting that. Anyone who is questioning Warren's position on the board and whether he's gone over to the other side should have a listen. He makes good points and it’s often what he doesn’t say that is very telling.
I think people also forget he cannot say in public what is being said at board level by anyone.

Hopefully he is zipping his lips but being noisy behind those closed doors.
 
Somebody please in the review bring up that in contested marking areas, we need a bit of spacing.

The amount of times our defenders spoil/wipe out our teammate, or our forwards spoil/wipe out our teammate marking the ball should not happen.

Also I already mentioned when the oppo kicks out, where the **** are the talls outside the fwd flanks? Too many times there is either a small or nobody there and they get out easy. This is basic stuff.

We have the worst coaching panel in the league.

Rata spoilt our blokes more than his opponent yesterday
 
1. Hinkley needs to go. It’s 90% game plan which is the problem.

Defence. Need to just play one on one back shoulder, and bring a 7th behind the ball.

Midfield. Besides Wines and Drew, midfield is very young. They just can’t compete atm - gameplan or not.

Butters, JHF, Rozee, Mead, Burgoyne, Sinn, Sweet

Forwards. Get awful supply. No decent small forwards besides Rioli. Game plan designed for Dixon.
