Preview Changes & Preview Round 17 - Ports vs Dogs @ Adelaide Oval

[Ah12]

The only part of our high pressure forward line that fails is the passengers we have there in mcintee and Evans who are neither a threat to mark the ball, score goals or set them up, lock the ball inside 50, or crumb the ball anytime our it’s bring it to ground.

The absolute worst feature of our team over the last few years has been the immense stupidity of having a forward flood and a kf line designed for our kfs to bring it down to ground and watching our opponents defenders win the ground ball instead of our supposed small forwards who are there to win it on the ground or lock it in. It’s one of the all-time big coaching failures.

We’re not top heavy , we’re deficient in proper skilled small / medium forwards.

If we had a Robbie gray and monfries in the reserves we could pick them, instead we have a soon to be delisted Evans , and mcintee , who shouldn’t be in the afl at all except our coach is an idiot.

We used to be very good at this during 2020/2021 and it has now become our one wood. We are absolutely horrendous at it now and it completely works against us but the coaches cant seem to figure out how to correct it or actually think of a new game plan.

I think not enough has been said about how good it will be to see him playing with his brother Logan!

Its like watching Chad and Kane all over again.

Let see what the boys have for us today.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is that we should be in our premiership window. Now, things can go awry because of injuries and the like but we got some players through free agency to fill up the gaps and we are playing terribly, not really because of the new guys but because the team doesn't believe in Hinkley and his gameplan.

The way that Davies through the team under the bus by suggesting the list might not be good enough is an indictment on him as a footballing person and a human being.

The list is fine and the coach is total cactus but he went at the list.

If the Bulldogs want to win this game, they will.

Happy boo day everyone!

Can see how it unfolds today already
NTUA plays the crowd stand up (mostly happy clappers) they start swaying their scarves like a little Christmas sing along (its cringe af now)
The players look angry and pumped up the ball gets bounced the dogs midfield pounce bontompelli gets the clearance delivers it inside 50 and ugle-hagan takes the mark goes back and slots it
The players drop their heads and throw in the towel meanwhile kens on the bench coke in hand shaking scared shitless
Rinse and repeat rinse and repeat we get flogged
Koch again flags the win loss ratio of our coach over the last 400 seasons, pumps up his own ego doesn't acknowledge his fans concerns or the obvious problems staring him directly in the face and its all swept under the carpet for another week
Same shit different week

The Sack Hinkley thread is the gameday thread today.

Every key forward we've had for the last 10 years is a spud! Kenny can't kick it for em!
