Could also be that he drops marks, doesn’t take clean possession & recovers enough to get the ball out for an assist 😉 Fog is bare minimum standard, we need that, but we also need to go past him to improve. Shows how far we have fallen when the mark of a small forward is he applies pressure &...

Pretty harsh to say he’s hiding! We welded that door shut pretty well - he’s not getting out. Hope Wickzki remembers to feed him today- he forgot yesterday

Yes it’s a need, but IMO it’s far from our most pressing need. KPD & small forwards are the pressing need. Houston will likely cost 2 1st round picks at a time where we need to be hitting the draft given impacted drafts are coming and our age profile. We need some quality (1st round) kids...

Yep, in the mid field to capitalize on 6/6/6 especially from the center bounce. From the back line - not so much, if we could do it, we would have seen signs with Saad/Boyd even Cinc (think back to his earlier days- he can run). Run from the backline is a great way to play - but it’s not how we play

Houston would be great in our system atm 🤦‍♂️ he would run, catch up to our grouped together mids/wings, have no one leading up and when we turn it over it would be 25-35m deeper in (still to shallow for a decent forward entry) our forward half. 100% it gives us more time to defend the turn...

What does Lukosius cost? He’s a bloody good kick of the footy and a good size (195cm) Just reading an article on Smith - no way he goes anywhere but Geelong. He already a brand ambassador for Cotton On & given his social media status & clothing range (shit as it may be) they could justify...

It’s what happens after the bloke u had lined up gets the offer pulled due to past indiscretions. Lyon was our “high profile experienced coach” we were then scrambling to fill it. I’ve heard that from multiple people, one of which supposedly was told from someone very close to the selection...

Spot on, we miss that link man & always worked his ass off to provide an option & lock the ball in

100% just asking the question around the cap & his possible salary. English just re signed for circa $1m, yes he was all Australian, but I think TDK has a higher ceiling. We should have locked him in already

It’s also been confirmed from other sources too (to the extent you can source something that’s not first hand)

Would love to know where our cap stands. If TDK takes another step up after preseason can we afford to keep him with a $1.2m price tag? If there’s a chance we can’t match the offers that will come, smart play is to off load him now for max value. I do not want to trade him, his salary on the...

There’s a peer reviewed comment posted a page or two ago about it 😂 I don’t realize so many were Voss appointments/appointed after he was onboard, adds a different perspective when that’s taken into consideration.

FYI I’ve been around for a long time, been saying the mid field, game style & selection integrity has been a massive issue for quite sometime. Wasn’t about to get on board a false dawn. There’s no point flogging a dead horse, a little success was enough for a lot to start crowing about Voss...

It’s not a question of his ability, it’s the fit. He plays good solid football but his limitations come to the forefront as he is exact opposite of what we need. We need a quick attacking mid, attacking the ball & the opposition. Cerra is a better player, U can’t keep hammering away with...

You think Voss is going to give JSOS a game? Wishful thinking IMO he was 100% in the “not a favorite” camp. As stupid as it sounds, I really feel that Voss has no understanding of his players, there ability & how to get the best out of them. It sounds ludicrous but when u look at what he’s...

I’d pay double to hear them give it back to him

Definitely, point was Hew would be lucky to break into the top 60 for his position & that’s probably being generous.

I think it’s very telling when u look at our results against our traditional rivals & important games. They seem to get themselves up for the game & have a want & will to beat us. We just don’t, there’s no want, it’s an incredibly poor mindset & leads to shit results. Everyone there should...

We are in for some serious hurt on TDKs contract. He will want $1m+ & you can’t begrudge him that as he will easily be worth that and more on the open market. It does not bode well for us when we have so much $ tied up in Weiters, Crippa, Charlie, H, Walsh & TDK. Not saying they aren’t worth it...

Yep, I have. You coach the full squad, u drill everyone, even if a player isn’t as talented or skillful as another they should still be in the right spot.

It’s laughably bad that Fog & Hewett are seen as pillars to have a good preseason and be important next year. They are both honest footballers, limited in their own ways but realistically not very good. Neither would be in top 40-45 in afl in their position (think about it - 18 sides & every...

Think it was interesting that when we did try to run and link/take on the game how poorly our players were positioned & synced. After watching the games before ours, it was stark contrast. All of the sides had cover, predictable patterns, support & spacing, we looked like a bunch of Aus...

Lighter bodies argument is bullshit, light isn’t a problem, just need to be quick and strong. Darcy Jones for GWS weighs as much as one of our players legs & was brilliant yesterday. Yes he’s a forward, but the argument stands about being light

One thing that really pisses me off is the so call “afl media”. The spineless pricks will write articles smashing everyone & everything but put them in a press conference & not one of them will even come close to asking a “tough question”. Hell, I’d settle for a decent question & follow up.

100%, the boys at least made it entertaining - Skinny was awesome to listen too, made some very astute observations. Ridiculous that a bloke who coaches high school football had a better grasp on the game than our head coach

Mate it’s just Qld, they are ****ed up here, the level of tackiness in everything is next level. If u figure out who’s responsible, I’ve got some rope u can borrow 😉

Yep, doing that to a close mate of your captain/best player & new father, after Crippa has just had his first kid is not smart. Yeah, he ****ed that up big time. Crippa would be ****ing filthy on a heap of levels.

Chasms after that shit.

The people we want to say that to aren’t around 😂 They will be hiding for a few days at least given how vehemently they said we were wrong. Good news is at least in here is pretty much united, that type of display made it clear that something is very very wrong

His media training is spot on, I reckon he practices those little smiles (which he throws in as much as possible) in front of the mirror multiple times each day. Club selected him as he was “a big name” & uncompromising. Nope, he’s just another super star footballer who can’t coach - just like...
