You’re correct Mutineer he plays for Western United when home - ripping lad good size great skills can take a mark as seen this weekend probably mark of the year so far in that age group. Could see him on a list as a Smokey and becoming very handy across half forward. Kicked 20 odd goals in a...
Clam is this a serious post? He’s in his second year at the age of 19 and the games I have watched he has an extremely high ceiling and would walk into our best 22 with ease.
Not the way I would go but we all know AFC will not delist Smith we are too nice.
I think we should give Tex another year and start the transition.
McHenry gone please he has had far too many opportunities already.
Gollant extremely lucky to get another year but is one of those guys who could...
Rankine set up the win
Dawson ensured the win
Murphy 50% of his disposals were turn overs just wow!
Cook is in the same category as Fog in his early games, low disposal count but the disposals are damaging- man he can kick!
Fantastic: me finally getting one over SBet - they were offering me...
It was discussed before the game there was an interview mid week with Smith talking about all his mates on Hilux Hill for another of his milestone games and said most of them would again be travelling to Perth - and if you remember his form was abysmal before that game.
Also his dad was...
This is what is so infuriating currently…we are playing poorly, we have lost games we should have won we have an extremely talented lad playing SANFL very well in an area we are struggling in an yet we can’t find a spot for him.
We also keep Curtin in the twos playing him at full back.
Is it...
Wow just wow - so take out the West Coast witches hats game and we haven’t won a game since the Showdown and yet the inspiring changes of Walker, Robot Rob and Cement hands….who also played in a number of those losses.
So since the showdown we have seen Dowling….
Let’s not mix up the 22 let’s...
Although I believe Mr Nicks will enter politics after his footballing career comes to an inevitable end, he seems to struggle to read the room…
Surely he has heard the crowds and must know he needs to make changes - why oh why does Murphy, Smith, Jones, and to an extent McHenry continue to be...
Add to that the perplexing issue of Nicks and his team eventually [often forced] promoting a player who has been knocking down the door in the SANFL and playing them in a completely different position on the field in the AFL than where they have been excelling.
It’s almost like we are setting...
It’s baffling how we operate at times and the discussions regarding talent identification or talent development is interesting but could we add another aspect being “lack of realisation “ meaning, why can’t we cut our losses?
Are we not able to make decisions on whether a player has the game to...
Out
Murphy for god’s sake he can’t keep being given AFL games
Jones sorry son you are no good
Laird ineffective
Cook can’t carry his 1-2 magic moments
Nicks great team building - love fest - coaching you no good
I had two forehands I would swap hands depending on where the ball was - I was atrocious- the school partnered me up with Mark Woodforde so he wouldn’t wipe the doubles comp.
I’m melting very early but if Dowling is made sub and Murphy stays in the 22, or McHenry makes the starting 22 I doubt I’ll watch another game this season as it will officially stamp Nicks as an absolute kook and we have no hope.
At least a belting will force change and maybe we will see a...
I think the days of sign writers actually using their hands are long gone - the old shop window signs at butchers etc. are a memory now.
my mate who is a sign writer still has the gig at ovals such as Adelaide doing the on grass signs but apart from that it's probably 95% computer driven these...
Yes I’m a broken record but the outs are very important;
Murphy
Mchenry
Smith - These 3 no discussion required have had multiple chances are playing horrid football currently not up to it.
Jones - really just hanging on by a thread [or a 3 goal performance] just goes missing and can’t seem...
Pick me pick me!
I am left handed in all fine Motor such as writing and over the years have been complimented on my neatness and style. Football I was right footed [badly] and cricket I batted right handed - I can actually bat left handed and play shots with more technical skill but with little...
If it wasn't so infuriating it would be comical -Laird - the Richmond player stepping over him and he plays dead WTF and then Smith does probably the worst thing he can think of doing… and nails it
Nicks has been gifted by the God of poo coaching an amazing draw that continues to cover over the huge cracks and allow him to play his mates;
When the pressure was right on after 4 straight losses we grind out a win against Carlton followed up by a loss to Essendon- we then smash North...
Exactly he gets the “hit out” stat but both he and our midfielders have no idea of where it’s going to go. Has he ever put it to one of our mids that are on the run - a set play?? He contests always, can’t deny that but he isn’t giving our mids an advantage.
Good tap ruckman [Rehn} are able to...
Good: Borlase has grown in confidence and kept it from becoming a blood bath.
Bad: we are half way through the 2024 season and we have done nothing to improve - Nicks and his selection team pick basically the same 22 and play the same guys in the same spots for far too long too reluctant to try...
bad : me going to a wine market Saturday night and loving the delightful reds, so much so i was excited and bought 12 - looked at the eftpos machine $500 - but push through make out your the powerball winner
sad: trying to recoup wine purchase by putting on ridiculous multis
ugly: having crazy...
The head coach definitely has more sway when it comes down to it - and it could be assumed that McHenry and Murphy definitely have a strong advocate at selection and have done so for a few years now. I would bet good money they would not have reached the number of games at any other successful...
