I’m going through the tractor count

JGTI, Pickett, Young, Grimes, Hopper, Dow, Naismith and Martin

The Jason Castagna Space Invaders count

Banks, HRS , Broad and Campbell.

Campbell has lost his explosiveness since Round zero bc he’s now obviously been told to play more defensively as the team is in self preservation mode from total destruction. You can see he’s looking undecided when he gets the ball now and not playing with natural instincts anymore. It won’t be long before he becomes the next victim as they roll start in another tractor.
 
Selections are a bit whatever - not a huge amount of options.
We want to play the kids, but you also need some hardened bodies around them, otherwise they just get smashed and learn nothing.

I'm more annoyed at the VFL playing at 2pm on a friggin work day.
Will be in a meeting and won't be able to watch a sneaky stream.
 
Mentioned that was a bad move months ago as when you bring in a new coach then all of the assistants must go. It eliminates the Buddy system with players.
Its looking that way.
If I was feeling ungenerous, I would suggest it seems like the club is being incredibly stingy and spending a little as it can get away with on the football department. Not spending a bit extra on better assistants (not to mention an upgrade on our fitness guru) will come back to bite us on the arse.

And I think it's already started.

FWIW, I don't think Pickett is a tractor. He's just undisciplined and sloppy and makes 2 mistakes for every nice bit of play he produces.
 
I don't need to be inside the room to know the team selection is poor. Kids are being played out position then subbed or dropped after 1 week. Players selected off poor VFL form or no form. Any player with a bit of experience is never any danger of being dropped, only the kids.

You sound like a yes man supporter. Everything the club does is correct because they know best!

This was the same player who earlier in the season was out bodied by a smaller player.

Ryan cant do any worse than cricket bat arms KOSI

Btw I like Naismith but who's going to play tall forward? Its ultra small. Unless they have a plan to lower the eyes and hit up inside 50 leads. Maybe Miller plays forward (I prefer him back) hence Naismith rotating ruck and Ryan left out.

If they have a plan to play Miller forward I would not be at all surprised if Macca plays back which he has done before.

Soft cap TI !!!
Can’t p!ss them off when they are still contracted. Well you can, but their salaries ( or a % ) are included in the cap .
AFL love a fair and equitable competition 😄

What’s worse than a tractor coz that’s what Graham is.
