‘Grossly overestimated’: Sliding Power’s list ‘mistake’ amid question mark over trade gamble
‘Grossly overestimated’: Sliding AFL contender’s ‘mistake’ as trade gamble backfireswww.foxsports.com.au
Bring back choccoThe list is fine.
The coach and gameplan is terrible.
We will hopefully get an influx of cheap, Father/Son picks and Academy players this draft.
And really we can only have a decent assessment of our list when Hinkley leaves.
A good development coach would be handy as well as this has been below average especially with talls during the Hinkley era.
Geoff Morris was good in the role, we brought him back briefly before covid. Can't really remember when we let him go, didn't feel like it was a long stint.The list is fine.

It's always the midfield.
We are getting destroyed in the middle.
That makes your defence look ordinary and starves your forwards of opportunities.
Don't look at anything but our midfield and clearance work.
I'm not a Sam Hayes fan at all but had we played him over a broken down Soldo or Sweet our outcome in the last 3 games would have looked a bit different.
Sweet vs Marshall this week will decide Ken's future. Ken would have had more chance of survival with Hayes ironically.
Lost to the Covid cuts I believeGeoff Morris was good in the role, we brought him back briefly before covid. Can't really remember when we let him go, didn't feel like it was a long stint.
Thats the excuse. Geoff told Hinkley we should be training footy skills instead of live baiting his doggies.Lost to the Covid cuts I believe
I think we're generally a pretty good clearance side.
.
We have an elite clearance side. To clarify, we've switched from uberdefensive at clearances with Lycett to very attacking this year, we will get waltzed out clearances and also concede waltzed out clearances.
Obviously as I said, when we're in a clearance shootout and we have a gameplan that specifically fails to take advantage of unpressured inside 50s, we're fighting with one hand behind our back.
A good coach would look at his elite kicks going inside 50 and utilise them with an open forward line. Not our Kenny though, it's hospital balls to avoid intercept marks all day every day
There is no ying to the yang with the three in there. Rozee to Half Forward and become Hird, Butters to a Wing and become Bradley, JHF Centre and become Voss. Drew, Wines and SPP wax as defensive minded stoppage blokes and have Mead, Jackson, Sinn, Burgmann as the link between Defence and Forward 50 entries.We’ve got a midfield capable of elite clearances … jhf rozee and butters are just so damaging with their ability to take the ball away from a contest.. even with the handicap of our setup… but for whatever reason our side while it can get quality clearances it can’t regularly get the quantity.
Most non-port game I watch clearance mids rack up massive numbers and the 2nd 3rd rack up 6-8.
I’m not sure why this is. Set ups? It’s not quality.

Nearly all Motlop's end up at Port Adelaide...
It is something to really think about.Last year we had Butters & Rozee as All Australians. JHF off the back off major leg surgery having a great year. Drew good too. Only difference being Wines is back in playing midfield after Hinks boldy declared pre season off zero form and a bad injury that's where he was playing.
But Mac & Cheese is such a "coachable player" who does the little things right which is more important than kicking goals.What we would do for a kozzie pickett
We need to be on his ear daily about how shit melb lifestyle is..
Should be priority number 1
