What I love about the photos and the Teague talk. It shuts up all the negative nellies that had half these lads out the door.
And by golly the Walsh star is gonna shine next season you can see it in his face. Best 3rd year player in history?

Hopefully if Ed retires at the end of next year he maybe interested in a midfield coaching role? He' so professional and always has been.
Love Ed.

Everyone will crack it with this but...
My personal feeling is that Teauge doesn't like him.
Teauge is a country guy who I think would have good acumen on "good blokes". In the fan press conference imo his tone changed when talking about Stocker and didn't have the same excitement as he did when discussing other players.
I really rate Stockers ability, his kicking off both feet is really impressive and looks composed, but doesn't seem to be jelling with his teammates despite his impressive interview performances.
Could be a bit of Figjam that is hardwired in his system maybe a touch of akamanis.
Imo people like that dont change, so Teauge has to decide if he's good enough that we live with it, or if it's an overall negative impact on the unity of the group.
The above could be 100% off.

Can't see him retiring at the end of 2021. Supremely fit and remains a very important part of our best side.
Doesn't get anywhere near the credit he deserves.
Totally agree. Does deserve alot more credit than he gets. Ed really drives the guys.
Hope Ed doesnt retire but IF he did,I'd love him to get a coaching role at the club.
Still our second best midfield extractor. No need to move him on although there's a need to find the next in line.

Not going to crack it. But I reckon its 100% off.
I didnt notice a change in tone and he mentioned him as help for Cripps.
Most likely is he just hasn't seen all that much of him is all.

Who had half the team out the door? The only discussion I remember is a potentially disgruntled JSOS and mystery of Stoker.

Killer post. Ed is a 9 to 5 the monster the overtime beast. Any mid who sees him coming would be like, “Damn, it’s gonna be a loooonnnnnggggggg day.”
While some were clamouring for front row seats on the Teague Train, and a few were potting him at every opportunity, i was in the camp of just watch, see, and learn about a new coach that i was pleased got the job.
Imo he has done a lot right with the men around him. They seem a tight, hungry group. That's a big part of a head coach role. The whole group seem invested and hungry.
In saying that, i thought he coached quite poorly last year and seemed rattled at times during the season at pressers. But i was impressed by that 30 min interview i just watched now. I saw a bloke with self awareness and scope to learn quickly. Looks in a good place and learning adroitly as he goes, and leading a joint in a good place.
I reckon he knows where he's at, knows what he's got at his disposal, knows how he wants to take things forward, and is capable of learning quickly. We're gonna be a positive footy club going forward.
Quietly quite impressive i thought. I think/hope he is slightly more openminded about selection going into this season than maybe i was giving him credit for.

I noticed that too. Definitely seemed to be choosing his words more carefully for that bit.
Of course there could be any number of reasons for it, some of which you've mentioned. Others might include that Teague doesn't have as good a read on Stocker compared to other players right now because he missed all that time in the hub and they're only just back training. Or maybe someone behind the camera held up a sign just then asking Teague what he wanted for lunch and he got momentarily distracted weighing up the nachos vs the warm beef salad.

Great call, TW. Last year was a whirlwind which prevented reflection and response. Would have been hard work for a young coach to adapt to the speed of the circumstances. It’s no coincidence that experienced coaches got their teams to the top 4 and grannie.
Can see him being much more effective with a decent break between games and a maturing list. His presser was very impressive today, felt real as a communicator although, there was evidence of some catch phrase rhetoric at times. Reinforced a lot of what fans are asking for: speed in the midfield, quicker ball movement and supporting the backline to limit one v one contests where we are vulnerable.
He sees it, let’s see if he can implement it.
How good is it too see some of the old heads back with the kids today!!!
Mate. Come on.

say what? does patty cripps say "I thought they'd be getting they're own ball so I didn't bother"? also, no-one asked me"? well, does he? well?
I've noticed the same thing, going back to press conferences early this year. Coaches' eyes light up when talking about their favourites, but whenever Teague has to speak about Stocker it's... the opposite. Hopefully we're completely wrong and it's just a bit of strategic tough love.
Don't mind the two young blokes at the back of the photo either.....Slammin' Sam Ramsay and Joshy Honey.
Some real talent there to develop.....
It’s membership season, so i don’t take much notice of the puff pieces the clubs media team roll out around this time every year.
As always, actions speak louder than words.
Let’s see if games are given to the conditional, if we are fair dinkum, we have to move past that kinda thing ...
