Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 13 - Another Crack At This

[Doctor Feel]

They will probably go the new era route and market the hell out of fresh beginnings and splash cash end of 2025 to maybe lure some coaches...but then again, they aren't competent. We could just as easily be business as usual, shuffle out bRyan, farewell emperor ken and Carr comes in largely with no changes.

...then there is the looming threat of a hinkley extension.

Loz Arnell has won as many knockout finals as Ken has in the past 10 years.

Twice as many now.

Am I the only one who doesn't like DBJ forward? I hear a lot about him, SPP, Evans, McEntee and the like being "pressure forwards"

To me, something seems off about structuring your forwardline around the other team having the ball...

I don't like dbj as a forward.. or defender.. or on the bench... It goes on..

DBJ led the team in Goals + Goal Assists this season and lead our Goal Assists in 2023.

He's not just a pressure forward. He's a good footballer and he's effective at kicking and creating goals.

Pressure forwards aren't a Hinkley special, every team plays forwards who are expected to work hard to pressure ball movement. Hinkley just picks ones that don't do anything the other way.

DBJ isn't one of those. He's a good player.

Feel like DBJ doesn't get the credit he deserves because he's not that x-factor small forward that fans love. He's out most consistent player in that forward line alongside Georgiades

Matthew Richardson will sprout the same bullsh*t he did last AGM when questioned.
"IF YOU'RE NOT EXCITED ABOUT THE LIST AND THIS SEASON, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU."

Answer with: How about you tell us why this exciting list continually gets flogged year after year in finals & even worse home finals?

Can't stand him as a player or leader. Went missing in 2 of our 3 finals which is standard DBJ. Would have traded him years ago.

Houston could bob up with those clutch goals at times, and create with that penetrative accurate kick.

Thank goodness Farrell can do all of that (not in the same class yet) or we would be hurting more.

Don't think Farrell is consistent, Houston was.
