Someone please explain the logic behind dropping Frampton today
ExactlyNo idea. Frampton was playing well as a defender, then Fly moved him forward and basically put him out of form, then confidence. There has been some horrible moves and team decisions this season....
Or do we have a lot of younger players who don’t put the effort into training and the gym? Reefs still got no tank, macrae is weaker then a 12year old school girl for egDo you see how much bigger and stronger Hawthorn players look compared to ours,even though they’re younger?Hine has a lot to answer for for the players he’s recruited in recent years.
Worked out wellIt was done as a motivator for Moore to ‘flick the switch’ as he’d be the only tall in defence.
I think he’s a star too. Factoring in injury. But wonder if he’s hit his ceiling (2018 til now).Nah you’re wrong
De Goey is a star
But he shouldn’t be out there. He’s injured.
If you think Frampton would have been the solution to our problems today, you obviously haven't watched enough of Frampton this year. He's basically VFL standard. All the Adelaide people could have told you that.Someone please explain the logic behind dropping Frampton today
In hindsight we gave up too much for Schultz but comparing him to Ginnivan is doing him a disservice.
They're not similar players. Ginni just can't do what Schultz can in terms of defensive pressure or covering ground.
Whenever people start romanticising Ginni, I will just remind them of the Grand Final, plus he would have had even less opportunity to do well in Collingwood's forward line this year.
Macrae is not going to make it at AFL level, i feel like this is one of ways we went wrong this year thinking he was the answerOr do we have a lot of younger players who don’t put the effort into training and the gym? Reefs still got no tank, macrae is weaker then a 12year old school girl for eg
Don’t think he’d be losing any sleep over itGlad we got rid of the Flog
We’ve had a few eras where we’ve been out bustled by bigger bodied players. Albeit much better sides in those eras. Eg Lions, Cats.Do you see how much bigger and stronger Hawthorn players look compared to ours,even though they’re younger?Hine has a lot to answer for for the players he’s recruited in recent years.
go and check the pressure difference as the other "stats" are pretty even, but shcultz is only 150% v better on pressure
WHE, missed every opportunity today when he has had had a marking attempt
Just saying

'A disaster': Jack Ginnivan move backfires on Collingwood as startling details emerge
Lachie Schultz is producing similar numbers to Jack Ginnivan in 2024. Read more here.au.sports.yahoo.com
Nothing was our solution today. We may have lost by a goal less perhaps.If you think Frampton would have been the solution to our problems today, you obviously haven't watched enough of Frampton this year. He's basically VFL standard. All the Adelaide people could have told you that.
Not to worry, draft picks are over-rated /hit n miss beyond pick 2, so we’ll increasingly shop in the SSP basket (..‘ahead’ of the curve)!Do you see how much bigger and stronger Hawthorn players look compared to ours,even though they’re younger?Hine has a lot to answer for for the players he’s recruited in recent years.
Save $100’s of Dollars in SeptemberAt least the AFL won't be getting my money this September , the ladyboys in Thailand will appreciate that more.
I went to the game today and let me tell you, you can go on as much as you like about what Shultz is meant to offer. But Ginnivan made us look pathetic. How many did he get, 31 possessions? Nice. Tell me more.
Reckon midfield just as vital. It is the reason that the ball is always going into defence much more than the opposition.The backline needs to be rebuilt
