Unfortunately we have 1.4 mil a year tied up in Taranto and Hopper. Not to say they are bad players, but Hopper in particular never seems to get on the park.
700k each.Wow thats gonna break our cap.
 
Tylar Young is not AFL standard unfortunately. He’s a poor man’s Will Thursfield. One dimensional and can’t even do that dimension well anymore.

Short’s defensive efforts this season has been insipid. He genuinely has no will or desire to defend. I can’t recall him winning a genuine one on one this year.

My concern is we, apart from Lynch (Who is always out injured anyhow), we don’t have a player that’s willing to put the rest of the boys on his back and just will us back into the contest. Even if it’s to arrest momentum for five minutes. Cotchin was the absolute god at this. And god I miss him.

Time for Yze to fall on his sword and put Balta back.

If Short stays in the side it can't be in the backline, he's a liability back there. Give him a run forward.

Play Bauer forward in the VFL then AFL next week. With Ryan.

lol. Bauer and Ryan? Two guys whom barely cut it at VFL is your solution?

Balta has a knee issue and is coming back from a 4 week break as you want to throw him behind the ball so he can miss the rest of the year too?

most probably,well despite the injuries it hasnt workd,i think the whole club took advantage of this bloke,if it was good enough to move on premiership players like Butler and Ellis its good enuff to notify Teague,Rutten,Meehan etc and say thanks for your services we're changing it up and id do it tmr,the change has to be immediate send the message now,Yze
can really put his stamp on this club by doin this now,tmr,FK em all off,theyve used him

Coach contracts aren’t done until October, or around then, where are we getting replacements from?

i know i keep hearing we are in a great state off-field ad nauseum

but really?

this is a dark descent and benny is bailing

how the **** does a tiger legend bail now

he doesnt need the dosh

the number of pages this club is spread across right now is alarming

we need cohesion and we need dead wood cut the f out

and honestly club comms to members is token at best and feels more like avoiding the subject

treatment of balme odd

would love to know if yze knew gale was already checking out

he looks like he didn't get told til he read it in the media poor campaigner
 
clubs got the weakest assistants and footy department in the league now,by DESIGN,in record time,by DESIGN
orchestrated by both CFL n the club itself,their not totally blameless,not one club envies any individual footy person @ our club bar Gale ,time for the broom n sweep out the cobwebs,Yze stays and gets given a shot with his own handpikd men
 
Ryan in and up forward.

Balta back, or in the middle (thought the only time we looked competitive last night was when he was rucking)

Cumbo stays in and let him up the ground a bit - by far looked our most dangerous forward after Lefau.

Young - in the bin after last nights performance, replace him with Balta or Bauer if fit

Mcauliffe - actually looks like a midfielder. One brain fade but can tell he’s got what it takes

Green -got a similar amount of the ball in the firsts as he does in the seconds. Got a real long way to go

Pickett on the angry pills and gave away a quarter of our frees last night. Not sure what was going on there

The 50 against Rioli was the lamest 50 I can ever remember seeing. ****ing terrible

We have no small forward who can finish - mansell is tough and gets a bit of it. But sprays it almost every time - heartbreaking to watch

Yze looked like he was about to cry in the last quarter.

Poster who declared in the first quarter they were off to indulge in midget pornography instead of watching the football the smartest person on this board - should consider applying for one of the coaching positions at end of the year when we have a clean-out.

who needs replacements immediately when ya got that footy department,its tripe,their leftovers from a bygone era
Yze pulled the fotos from wall,only did half the job,do the full farken job,a cleanout is a clean out,dont be 1/2 arsd
 
Admittedly, we switched to Midsomer Murders at quarter-time, but I think my favourite moment was Noah Cumberland and Dusty’s conversation at centre-wing (“You kick it into the forward 50”; “No, you do it”; “But I’m a nobody”; “But I’m a, oh, fcuk, there you go”)
Better than watching the Midwinter Murder on at the Gabba.

The biggest disappointment are some of the senior players who are letting down the young kids.
You have Short who is giving us absolutely nothing. 15 disposals (3 of those kick-ins) and only 1 contested possession and 3 pressure acts last night.
Then you've got Vlastuin who is one of the more undisciplined players going around. Either by frustration or just carelessness always tackles head-high and last night sending a gut punch for a free kick, it's stuff like this which adds to our abysmal free kick differential. Some of it is just own goal stuff.
Our tall defensive units are just not AFL standard. I don't see Miller and Young's potential ceiling being very high, they're both very safe and don't take the game on or have the footy IQ to go off their man to intercept, which every successful team has (your Tom Stewarts, Levers/May, Andrews etc...). This used to be Rance and potentially Balta but Balta made way too many stupid mistakes back there that turned into a liability.
We just need young high end talent from everywhere on the ground.

The bright spot last night was seeing Mcauliffe get another full game under his belt and getting to the right spots to get the ball. Hopefully he learnt a few things playing against Brisbane's midfield.
 
how smart are the druggies ?

appoint the ex umpire boss as coach and immediately get a cushy draw and start getting sucked off by the umps as a result
AFL have been trying to rewrite history for Essendon, considering the drugs saga.

It was WADA that came in with the sanctions not the AFL.

He’s played some okay games. He’s fine when grimes and broad can do the hard jobs and give him some direction but left to his own devices he’s not ready. Possibly never will be either.

No tall talent on the list so Tyler Young it is. Shit timing for Trezise to be injured as he’d be a walk up start. I’m hoping Bauer makes a fist of it in defence today, as I think young needs a mental break. Can’t be easy defending behind the leagues worst midfield.

i give vlas a pass for the gut punch

in a climate where we ahve been pinged rightly and wrongly for sling tackles- decisions that have arrested momentum countless times, in a climate where the head is sacrosanct and the cfl are hair trigger on sling tackles...

he gets slung face first both arms pinned and play on

of course he is ****ing pissed off, he has had multiple concussions and is the LEAST PROTECTED hard at the ball player in the league [dangerhead started it all]

i would have backed him in for decking multiple ppl in that moment
 
match committee are useless
we bring kosi who is no star into the club but leave him in the 2nds. he should be playing!
samson should also be playing eff me. if we are tryn to progress the development of our players then its a no brainer.
put balta down back.
at least structure the side properly.
we have 15 injuries and we are not playing these guys eff me.
we will give mate colina a 5 year contract the way we are going
Nasmith Kosi and Ryan both got a run in Ground zero and all poor. Ryan subbed off at half time. The team improved massively after that. Kosi not much better.

Round 1 Nank & Lynch replaced them. Ryan was not great in the preseason, still skinny framed. Naismith not great when he got further chances.

Kosi was a fringe KPP who looks like a bust.
I'd have had Ryan off the bench.

Ideally shoudda got a quality KPF to replace Jack R. We tried but couldn't get anyone and I think that's the philosophy behind Balta KPF. He's our 2nd best KPP, hoping to that the forward penny drops soon.

So no coaches?

Take a deep breath, we’ve got 17 injured players including most of our best midfield and talls. We literally have a single key forward on the list and he got injured straight away. No coach is getting anything out of this squad.

IF Gibcus weren't unavailable sure drop the KPDs on form. Grimes has to come in for someone, maybe a tall.

I think Baker, TT Or JH could be that inspirational mid, leader.
