How can the Dogs pants Adelaide without an A-grade KPP at CHF and FF?
Henderson towelled up North and St Kilda because we were getting it to him and he was gutrunning. We don't have a working game plan that encourages the players to run and put in the effort like they did against the Saints. The talent will stand up in fits and spurts like they did against Essendon, Richmond and WC, but we need a coach who will get them playing to their potential. They put in and did enough in the second half of last year, but come this year, the players, board, CEO and President clearly don't believe in the coaching department. After we cut the lazy players, then it's up to Mick to get his list working in his third season. It isn't the names on a team sheet with Collingwood fielding Sam Dwyer who is a midget and ball magnet at VFL level like Ellard.
- Boyd is a teenager.
- Stringer is as old as Menzel who has missed the last two matches.
Jones, Casboult, Jaksch, Rowe, Jamison are not A Grade
Henderson definitely is, but better in defence.
Waite is A grade but he is gone so was Fevola.
Jones third pick is fully justified..spud
Casboult just as bad.
Rowe ... may get 10 good games a year out of him
Jamison .. downhill skier struggled to get to 100 games at 27 says it all
Jaksch needs two years and eat more protein or visit Essendons doctors.
Stringer is just about same height as Ted Richards.
Hawthorn
Gunston B to A Grader
Roughead A Grader
Lake A Grader
Frawley A Grader
Gibson A Grader
Geelong, Fremantle, Sydney etc etc have a spine of B-A Graders
Football hasn't changed much - you still need talent...and a game plan.
