Surely, surely it’s much ****ing easier to find a talented player and teach them all that, than it is to turn an untalented shape keeper into a player.
Just a few Murphy stats to digest:
He doesn’t play well against Collingwood, he doesn’t play well at the MCG.
- averages a career 8.25 disposals per game against Collingwood, his lowest.
- In the corresponding MCG game last season, 7 touches, 1 contested possession, 2 frees against (and a goal)
- his worst three games last season for disposals included the two against Collingwood
He doesn’t play well against Collingwood, he doesn’t play well at the MCG.
the moment we remind ourselves that guys like Silvers and Nicks make decisions purely based on immediate results is the moment we should all just give up. Nothing will change. This plastic club doesn’t care for flags or what happens 5 years down the line.
1 disposal in the second half against Collingwood over there last year.

The unfortunate thing about Murphy is that he does have decent Footy IQ. Reads play well.
Just can't execute.
Combine his IQ with Chayce Jones skill and physical traits, you have a very good player.

Guaranteed loss, you just can't have 5 spuds or past it players in your side and expect to win. Nicks is absolutely delusional at selection.

Sees team selection.
Changes Saturday golf tee time from morning to afternoon...schedules beers Friday night.
Just dumbfounded by the predictability of Nicks. There are 5 players picked who will get less aggregate possessions than Daicos will alone.

You’re giving too much credit to Jones. Who is an average Sanfl player at best.

Just the player you want to pump games into with the dream of winning a Grand final at the MCG.

I posted 2 years ago the stark difference between Murphy's home and away record
And our selection panel ignore it or don't care

McFumbles and his offsider Murph together again. How can we lose?

On the bright side , we get a higher draft pick that we can play in a pocket somewhere in the sanfl next year… yay

But we won't. We will continue to play experience and finish as high as possible

Don't worry, it won't be that high regardless.
Is that when we subbed out Soli?
Obviously thought Murphy still had fresh legs.

Baffling selections if you don't know Nicks is an idiot. Has to be expected though.
Going small you can't argue with. We went in too tall against Brisbane and paid the price.
Really glad we kept Cook in.
I was hoping we had made a decision with Hamill. He is on the rookie list, played 3 games in a row and was pretty bad all 3 games. He has been on the list since 2018 - played 41 games - surely we know. Just looks like another Davis, Rowe type of wasted game situation.
A best 22 that has Murphy, McHenry, Jones, Hamill in it is a pretty bad lineup.

Im at a stage where all I can do is laugh. He is so predictable its become funny. Don't get me wrong, its incredibly sad and torturing to see our club reduced to wondering what type of shit pile will Nicks dish up today.
THEY'RE BACK TOGETHER BABY!
Do we have the most dangerous small forward duo in the league?

That's a guy that's pretty chuffed with himself.
Some exciting passages of play ahead of us.
Jones to Mchenry to Murp...no wait Mchenry fumbles and was run down.
