Even so, 'begin as you mean to continue'
He said that hadn't bedded down the changes they'd worked on and that's why he told them not to do it vs IAS (i.e. Vanilla). I am happy to take that at face value.
If you think there is some deep meaning behind it, good luck to you.
sharp needs to be dropped, absolute butcher meanwhile most teams have silky users on the wing. brilliant that he runs all day but he just turns it over at the most inopportune moments.
cox and ryan are living off past reputation. these guys used to dominate games with intercept marking, when was the last time theyve done that?

Wager the time may have even been in response to Freo saying they want to be back in Perth by that same evening, there's pros and cons to both of course.
Sharp is a coward who won't kick and would rather handball it to a stationary teammate, considering he's built his entire brand as a winger such cowardice is inexcusable. Simultaneously doesn't win the hard ball or have the bravery to execute a kick.
seems 90% of our players are scared to kick the ball, and fair enough they ****ing butcher it enough, but it just leads to an extra handball and the inevitable turnover.
you watch teams like hawthorn or geelong or gws and they use the ball soo much better than us its baffling
even our 'athletes' are shit at being athletic! got absolutely tossed aside on saturday
Honestly they seem scared to do anything - consistently across the board the team has no flair whatsoever and hasn't for a while now.
Watch this space, Freo will ruin Shai Bolton.
It's because we prioritised effort/strength/running/tackling/marking ability over good kicks.
Look how much Reid and Young stand out at our club. Like the proverbial breasts on a bull. Its not brain surgery that in a sport that has 36 players on field, you need good to great kicks to penetrate zones and minimise turnovers.
Look how much Lachie Schultz struggles with disposal compared to his peers at Collingwood. He was about average to good in our side re: disposal.
It's a significant issue with our list, and only further heightened when our best kick Young is out injured.
Go through the list. There's really not many good kicks on it.
agreed to an extent, but your top players cant play A+ games every game, thats when you need your B graders to step up. obviously no one stood up this game.
agreed which makes it all the more confusing when we get absolutely destroyed and pushed aside at the contest
The problem with dropping Reidy for Voss is it means Treacy will need to chop out in the ruck. I think they might stick with Reidy simply for structural reasons
I also reckon they'll bring in an extra mid for one of the defenders, either Fyfe or Erasmus
Out: Switta, Banfield, Worner
In: Bolton, Walters, Fyfe

He won't be dropped, but he needs a slap down for his reckless shots from outside 50. I counted two that could have easily been passes to teammates.

Get cox chop out in the ruck, dude needs to harden up.
No the whole point of bringing Voss in is so that he chops out in the ruck. He’
He’ll do a worse job than Reidy lbr
JL said if he wasn’t playing last week he would be ready for this week…. Which means he’s probably 4 weeks away
hes showed his inability to find and hit a target since hes been in the team and presumably has been told to fix it up for a while now. dont think hes got it in him to fix up at this point.
not sure who could take that wing spot though

This was during Ross Lyon time......These day We are more into Vanilla Mumbleberry slices and not reveiling Our highly secretive strategies to the oposition....They are so secretive that even our own players don't know what they are any more....

My main concern is Jordon tagging Serong, did a number on Neale on the weekend who was held to 10 touches.
Without Young we are already very thin. Hopefully Bolton is in, but not sure he’ll play a heap of midfield minutes. Maybe someone like JOM is deployed as a bigger body on Heeney type, or we bring in Erasmus for an extra in the middle.

I maybe the only person thinking this, but I don't think Fyfe will play this week against Sydney, the club said they are going to very cautious with how they inject him into the side and build his body up. furthermore, Fyfe didn't participate throughout the entire Peel match, I saw him doing running drills up and down the 50 at Half Time and he didn't participate in the match from that point on. I think the club is going to have him play a full match with Peel this week to get him match fit and then possibly return him for the Derby.
That's my take on the whole Fyfe situation
(this is definitely being stolen by that FB page we all hate)
