Ok fess up. Who slipped an eccy into CCs cuppa?Biggest positive -
I love this board and this club, even if I get frustrated and negative sometimes. This is a good place to be and you're good people, even when we disagree or get snarky. Proud of the boys and everyone here for sticking fat.
Thanks all.
He should have played a lot more footy this year but better late than never.

Suddenly there are a few kids we can put their magnet on the team board and it'll gather dust over the next ten years.
Ginbey finding a role is such a big win for us. Changes how we look at prior drafting and the state of our list.
Schofield's coaching. Team selection was good, Ginbey settilng in behind the ball (instead of being created into something he isn't), the way he managed Allen, Darling and Waterman, Ryan back then forward when it counted. Reid getting a license to take it on and not reign in his temper. We've been crying out for this for years.
It’s nearly like giving kids that have been solid in the wafl a game works ?
Poor Duggo had 2 or 3 sniffs after the set shot and noone wanted to give him a lick. Ended up doing it for himself. Unreal goal.

Completely different player.
Matt Rowell had 11 clearances and didn't miss a West Coast jumper all night. Elite.

Still lack some polish at times i guess
- some of the senior players like Darling played out of their skins
- Ginbey in the backline is far more effective than when he's mid (IIRC his junior years were as a backman and only thrown in as a mid much later on?).
- the tackling
- the pressure
- games in Dewar, Trew, etc is a good thing.
- a full 4 quarters of effort
N:
Still lack some polish at times i guess
Mathematically incapable of making finals now. Not a single away win.
Things aren't so easy when you don't get to play three months straight at home.

I was wrong about Ginbey. Best game I’ve seen him play and if he gets consistent like that, alongside Hough we’ve got 2 awesome back men.
Those 3 I mentioned have been just ok in the WAFL, they havent been beating the door down or anything.
Theyve made the most of their moments so good for them

Did Ginbey play HBF? Or did he play CHB.
If he develops like Hough then maybe there is hope for him. Athletically he can handle anyone. He tested top for speed, endurance and leap.
There isn't a matchup he can't Breakeven in

Yes, it hasnt really been discussed yet but we went in with an underdone rusty Gov and Hedwards who was subbed out just after quarter time as our only Key backs. Against a rampaging Mac Andrew who kicked 3 goals in the first 40 min and the bloke sitting 3rd in the Coleman. To tidy that up and make the backline work without sending Allen back was an impressive bit of coaching.
