Port have been found out by genuinely good tall forwards and forward lines with 2 or 3 genuine quality tall forwards.
So what does Bucks do? Send Cox in as the only 193cm+ forward.
For a bloke who doesn't mind chirping when he performs, it would be very quiet around Cox currently.
Pies fans are delusional if they think they will roll us in finals.
We were giving them a bath 21 vs 22, the game only started turning a whole quarter after Andrews went off. Wouldn't expect a throng of imbeciles to think any differently anyway.
We've gone toe to toe with the champs all over the field off a 4 day break, compared to their 6.
We've let ourselves down on the scoreboard and robbed ourselves of a season defining victory.
In place of McStay, the loss of Oscar to the ruck is also hurting our structure. Skinner and Ballenden are green (Ressies in the VFL or similar would help). Adams being out hurts the defence too.
Our outs are big in nature and structure.
The Tigers have plenty of potatoes (Castagna, Chol...
Going Thursday night to Sunday in a week of fixtures is usually not a bad thing, and there are positives in this case, but.... We will be playing on the Sunday heading into what is being mooted as a compact stint of 5 or 6 rounds in less than 4 weeks.
Of course the Cats and Pies get the...
Browny copped his share of head knocks, after a while the media began to pile on about him being stupid to keep playing.
Selwood finishes most games with some form of head injury, and is called a "warrior". Spare me.
Have we witnessed our #1 ruck switch hands?
This is what happens when the AFL risk the health of our players, making us play against Victorians who haven't completed 14 day isolations. Our state saves the comp, and the comp gives us Razor Ray. Ungrateful jerks.
When it comes to the controllables, there is alot for the coaching staff...
Stef is getting a bath in the middle and around the ground. Our mids can't get near it. Nothing 50/50 has gone our way in the 2nd or 3rd quarter.
Defensive structure may need a revisit against certain forward lines too.
I reckon around 2000ish, Lynchy had some corrective work done to his eyes, and suddenly went from spilling uncontested marks to clunking many more than usual.
May be value in McStay booking into an optometrist at 9am on Monday.
If we can play 10 minutes of good cohesive footy, we win by 5 goals.
Lester and B1 (J Berry) have been huge so far.
Archie looks lost in free play, will benefit from time vs Nic Nat.
