Our recruiters back then were too high over leadership skills, good family, non existent x-factor and versatility (flankers turning to mids)... needless to say, not many worked out..I posted that seven and a half years ago. I hoped he would succeed, but amazed he made it to 100 games.
Thanks for your service.
Posted six years ago. He didn't improve.
You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
So easy to see. Our recruiters back then were absolutely blind. It's almost criminal.![]()
I don't think learning a new skill should feasibly take away from other attributes. It's not like bulking someone up and losing agility. He's going to tap the ball anyway, what's the harm in him tapping it a little more accurately
yep. definitely some shocking decisions but overall can't complain about that loss. We tried and they tried harderNo doubt, Geelong were the better team over the 4 quarters, BUT, how much of a momentum changer was it when we were 5 goals up and the ump plucked that "blocking" free against McKenzie - gifting them their first goal?
Gone backwards big time - Nothing like the player that broke out a few years ago
Let’s not call it tanking next week but I’ll be pissed if we don’t run every kid and ice our stars.
Not many people will agree, but Marshall is just not a tap ruckman.. he is a tall forward playing ruck and can give a 2nd effort after the initial ball up... Stanley is average(no. 16 in AFL for hit outs), but still beat Marshall..They're (Geelong) just too experienced. They just know each others game so well that they know someone will kick in...and get the gears moving. Our guys are made of bog average stock that try hard, mercenaries, and one solid jet in Steele, all playing to the dwindling hope that Marshall will become a gun ruck. Hopefully another pre-season sees them synchronise a bit better. We just need better cohesion.
Jones disappears every third game...and always in clutch matches. He needs to work on that.

Ratts, please get a proper idea on game plan and put players in their natural positions e.g. the one they been playing most of their junior careers.. a few players may have the skills/nous to play multiple positions, but not many can..
Could have done with some vanilling Billings tonight I reckon… a bit of boring ball control I don't mind.
We need a Don Pyke type - change our ball movement, fresh ideas etc triggering broGetting some new assistant coaches in pre season will invigorate this group and help improve our game plan. Much needed.
Absolutely the point I'm making is people saying he has gone backwards are wrong, I think he has done well this season considering all the injuries he has hadHe can be great one week and sh*t the next can't he?

I’ve always liked him. Competent defender IMO okay disposal etcwon't get much mention but lets talk about Joyce's position in the side for a bit. I think he's proven himself worthy of a spot. Doesn't get the most touches but strong and physical enough to go with the big boys, one more preseason should do him well. Never shies away from a contest either

let Dougal Howard do the classier intercepty stuff and just let Joyce go man on man with the biggest forward. I imagine he wouldn't take a single bit of shit from Tom Lynch. Would sit him on his within secondsI’ve always liked him. Competent defender IMO okay disposal etc
Battle/Joyce next CHB with Carlisle basically cooked
