I had no problem with the whole segment

"Something's not right". Is pretty much what BF is discussing.

"Not good recruiting of high draft picks" is countered by Lloyd. 3 flags and a list that's not great. & Caro.

Kane: Too many picks for TT & JH?

I would've preferred just one of them but I thought both of them and we book a spot to the GF.

The fact that we've got backwards is a mystery. Season isn't over and I hope we start playing decent footy.

No Peggy, maybe no Gale are big changes.

It's just total noise.

If the team plays without spirit or purpose for half a season then something major is not right.

The something that isn't right is just probably some mixture of some players injured that we cannot cover, our usual early season mediocrity, and some game plan issues trying to work out how best to incorporate our two new midfielders. We only need to start holding our own from now then get on a 5-6 win roll at any stage of the season and we will be playing finals. We won 4 on the spin twice last year from around this stage of the season. We would probably need to extract a rabbit from a hat in the way we cover Lynch to do something like that again. Hopefully the club is working on that plan right now.

I've only got free to air channel 9 and the AFL website.
So I watch this show for coverage of issues.

Tasmania, AFL CEO jobs and Brendan leaving is an issue; New president; drafting, trading are issues when we don't perform on field. Playing so poorly. A lot of injuries - maybe too many to save the season.
New player's haven't clicked, debutants from last year , half dropped off half borderline
 
We play Port Rd.11 at the G - will any of our supporters (or neutrals) boo Horne-Francis?

Hoping not.

Can get why Norf fans feel entitled, but it's strange and wrong from other club supporters. IIRC, even the Port fans had a go at him a few weeks back.
I reckon he'll get booed, there is an element of booing kane by proxy. Whether thats justified or not

He's a campaigner for what he did to North but I can only applaud him for that.

I wasn't aware that was a factor, but if it is he'll cop it for sure.

Reckon clubs need to be smart enough to draft for loyalty and commitment as much as talent, especially with such a precious pick.

IIRC, they could have picked up two loyal top-10 150+ game players by trading down that #1 JHF pick. Surely they had some sense he was luke warm about being there - at the very least they knew the risk of taking an SA kid.

Between those things and the disastrous coaching machinations, IMO they really did bring it on themselves.

I would really love the Tiger supporters to actually cheer him.

Probably going to be too busy being frustrated by another bloody turnover to realise he's even out there to boo

We may as well. The team hasn't given us anything else to cheer so far this season.

Surely not. Who gives a **** about JHF except Norf’s fan

Me too, that would be the highlight of the season so far.

Bullies love a pile on


Really does seem like that kind of behaviour given that it doesn't make any logical sense.

Yeah lets cheer JHF


LOL probably throw him right off his game...expecting a smack in the mouth at the biggest hostile venue of all, then copping a kiss instead.

Kid would be rattled. :D
 
I heard it against the Pies. Didn’t know it was an every week thing. How ridiculous 😂
Redic. too when Port play the Godees if JVR and JHF play.... Could have Godees crowd booin n rooin all over the shop. In that game, I'm hoping both player stat up major. It could sound like 120 mins of Old MacDonald had a Farm.
