To be fair we had 17 marks inside 50, not his fault the players sprayed them. They were all relatively simple too.Cons
- Shocking forward line. Multiple non-AFL quality players. Is Jamie Graham a dud? Never seems to change in 8 years now.

With Amiss I noticed this as well in the set shots he took with his left foot. At the end of his run ( walk) up he swerves slightly to the right which must be dragging his left foot right causing the ball to go right instead of straight.Tell me why Fyfe only takes two steps in his goal kicking routine then leans backwards? How has not anyone put him thru a proper 10-15 step routine if not like Ben Brown at least like Chris Mayne?
Its simply poor coaching to see that set routine.
Same with Nev. No need to change the whole thing but its obvious to blind freddy that hes lost too much momentum, running too close to the mark and he has a totally different arc when kicking from 45m or more. He runs out to the side and swings his leg across his body, to get more distance as a result of his poor momentum.
Whos our kicking coach?
Why is Pav not asked to go down there and sort this stuff out?
Its not rocket surgery
We've won a few games we would have lost this year if we didn't have Jackson, including this game.Yes our winger has been amazing.
But a forward has to do more than get possession , kicking straight is equally important.
I agree mostly but if we could of swapped Walters amd Emmet for two young dynamic players it would look a lot better
But I still can’t understand why you pay so
Much for a guy to just be your back up ruck.
If he continues to lean back and drop the ball from upon high the madness will continue. Show him a clip of Dunstall or Lockett leaning forward over the ball and almost placing the ball on their foot. I blame the coaches for heck’s sake.Oh yeah. 100%.
Ball drop is whack. Two Out on the full, in a tight GFs.. Kind of got to him
Given it was a tight contest, I don’t think they count as junktime goals.Pft.... he did nothing while the heat was on. He is useless. Kicked some junk time goals, woopy Doo.
He needs to go. Emmett needs to go.
Walters needs to be told he isn't B22. As a champion of the club he has earned a lot of leeway but geez he makes watching him hard some times.
By this guys definition a goal to win the game after the siren is junk time.Given it was a tight contest, I don’t think they count as junktime goals.
Was thinking this.One more extra thing, I would not be against Draper having a break to give Davies a run. Think Draper could use a fee games at Peel to dominate and feel good about himself
Yeah, he’s got skills though.By this guys definition a goal to win the game after the siren is junk time.
I hate JOM on the team and his first 3/4 were really bad. Kept trying to take the tackler on and get caught, couldn’t hit the side of the barn door all year. But he also sealed the game for us with those two at the end, so unfortunately there’s no dropping him (there never was anyway)
We played without Draper vs probably the tallest forward line in the league. I think we’ll be ok letting him back to Peel for the next couple, reshuffling our backs and bringing Wagner in. Then we should get Cox back after the bye.Was thinking this.
Though with the pies not a tall team, do we bring in of the w’s instead?
Nah, they still take the train, but don't tap onPfft they can’t afford the train. They’d be walking
Normally I feel like sucked in to the opposition but I kinda feel bad for the Saints
They are like us but worse which must be bloody terrible.
Agree with this x 10000. Gets in the right spots and clunks them. Once his kicking improves then he will be a real gemVoss has been playing his role perfectly as a replacement for Tabs. The one thing that surprised me about him is how clean he is in traffic. It's also impressive how many looks at goal he gets every game. If Voss can fix his kicking he can actually be a genuine forward for us.
I think his goal kicking routine looks awful but each to their own I guess.Amiss (yips aside) is looking good again.
Give him time ,he'll break like the rest of usI loved seeing that kid! he was so passionate, so forgiving, so loyal - we can learn from his courage
Draper often gets a moment or two caught out in marking contests or leading patterns against the taller and much more experienced forwards. Basically due to their craft and strength advantages. He is however awesome when it hits the ground for a guy his size. Being so mobile, a smaller forward line is right up his alley, plus offers him the chance to use his height as more of an advantage.Was thinking this.
