Here is a little bit


I watched the whole interview with Touk (it wasn't very long) and he talked about the playing group feeling like the Freo game this Friday is a "bankable" game that they should win. I'm in two minds about that attitude - on the one hand I think it's dangerous to view any opposition as a game that you should win but at the same time I also think you do need to have establish internal expectations of beating struggling teams if you want to compete for a spot in the finals. For example, Brisbane won't come out and say this publicly but internally there would be an expectation that they beat North by a comfortable margin this weekend. That's what you come to expect when you're a regular finals participant and you come up against last year's wooden spooners.

The main takeaway from Touk's interview was that they felt like they were doing everything right internally and that the wins are about to come through. He also predicted that Ben King will have a big game on Friday and will be dubbed the 'King of Norwood' at the conclusion of the game.

Now Karen cornes running with , will jack Lukosuis get out of there and head back to Adelaide before he wastes his career! Maybe jack has a bit of team spirit in him and cares about his teammates and club and wants to repay the club that has overpaid him the last 4 years. Not everyone is self centred like you kane and maybe he now calls the gc home, not every player is intent on returning to their original state.

He went from being a 'bust' to a 'gun'.
Gotta love that media narrative.
 
Barret turns up the heat on Dew
Minimum pass mark is two wins over the next month and if we're serious then it should actually be three wins. Do that and we're back in the finals hunt, but if we keep dropping winnable games like we did to Freo then Dew's in massive trouble. Heat is on.
 
I get the media has a job to put heat on an underperformed coach but I don't know if sacking dew is the answer. There's a couple issues there for sure, forward movement, defensive actions (first time we haven't played with 7 defenders since dew started),goal kicking. For the first time dew has also admitted to some game day mistakes he has made. Still feel like the players are playing for him though and the problems can be ironed out. Don't think we can include the first couple years when talking win/loss either we were at rock bottom when he took over. Time will tell and I do agree the next month is huge as the media generally get their way once they get their eye in on someone. Again kick a couple simple goals in the 3rdagainst freo and he wouldn't be under the pump, for this week anyway.
 


Assume this is what people were talking about but I’ve just seen it,

On the official AFL Twitter

You don’t see this from other codes
The nba offical account dosent ****ing tweet out “Damian lillard should stop being loyal to a team that won’t win and request a trade immediately”
