He was decent. Equal team high tackle count with 7.

The thing that shits me is his attitude. After the game, having a hug and a laugh with that thug after he just king hit Saad a couple of minutes earlier...
I don't understand this place sometimes.

We don't want introverts, but some posters want Weitering as captain. We want extroverts, but object when Fisher behaves extrovertedly. We want a hard bastard on the field, an old fashioned footballer, but posters line up to make fat jokes about McGovern. We want good disposal, but SPS is uncommitted and soft and LOB is a wuss.

I get that one expects a variety of opinion on this website, but the ability for just weird reads of just utterly mundane situations does my head in sometimes.

How is it that stupid posts like that can make it to the rumour thread? Mods lift your game.


Do you think we live on here 24/7 and read every post.

Use the report post function.

That's what it's there for.

Correct, we need 85 footballers (all different types) on our list to meet our needs.
 
Fisher will do well at another club , he just has not clicked in our environment a little more challenging an individual to harness , the pandemic conditions have made it difficult just to get through life regardless of anything else.
Respectfully disagree. I’m happy if the club takes a chance and lets him go.
 
hapoy to be corrected. My recollection was a very low possession game in the match immediately before his call up.
Possibly in the game directly preceding his call up, but definitely had a body of work before that which was worthy of a call up, so it wasn't like it was just out of nowhere.
 
If i recall as well, Stocker was not exactly banging down the door week in, week out leading up to his inclusion. But once he got his turn, he has found his feet and not looked back. Sometimes the Club needs to back in their youngsters and give them a decent stint.

Recollection is different from mine, (you may be right though).

Thought Stocker was made to earn it.

Regarding Stocker I think you’ll find he had a run of decent games at the start of this season in the 2s including a 37 possession game the week before he got picked to play against Brisbane.

hapoy to be corrected. My recollection was a very low possession game in the match immediately before his call up.

Played one VFL game (round 1 vs Southport) in which he had 38 disposals.

May have played in practise matches before then, but that was his one and only game at VFL level for the year.

You can start cart wheeling-resigned 4 months ago

Where did you see that?

Leigh matthews said it best when dogs were having problems with akermanis

"when you're winning , you put up with it. When the winning stops, you piss him off"
 
So Clarko or Lyon as director of coaching, the other as head coach.
Buckley and Leppa as assistants, with Power staying on.
SOS as head of football.
Fisher and picks for Cerra.

Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool
It will be one or the other. Clarko AND Lyon will not happen.
Buckley and Leppa (Assistants OR Footy Ops roles)
SOS (Long term, meaning the plan to get him in might not be immediate)

That's not extroverted behaviour...

You don't go and hug a guy who's just king hit your team mate...
 
Didn't he resign from the board a while back? He's been whacked for not being there when we need him but he literally isn't even part of the board and hasn't been for a while. Not sure why his name has been brought up lately.

still listed on board on the club's website, I guess some people question what the hell he was doing given it *seems* (opinion only) like our footy department is a dumpster fire?

Welcome to Big FaceFootybook mate 😀

Interesting, I could've sworn he stepped down months ago. The fellas On the couch even suggested as much.

Maybe he needs to be "officially" listed for the length of the season?

There were also some serious leaders at the Lions during Akers time, they were very good at keeping him within certain boundaries.

I thought he did too - maybe he did and the website is out of date. Regardless, can't say his tenure as a footy director has been a success. Maybe he was ignored in which case just a feather duster to keep the heat off the other suits on the board.
