Said for ages Tarryn off half back is the go. Glad Clsrko agrees.

The Giants totally overhauled their coaching team, hiring a new HC, OC and DC for this season which made all the difference considering the little change in playing personel.

Completely overhauling our coaching team by hiring Clarko and having him bring along Viney, Ratten, Monkhorst and Gibson has a similar sort of feel.

Having said that, I'm not expecting us to win more than ~6 games.

I think one big plus on last couple of seasons is that we certainly have more depth now. If you look at those ten odd not doing the match sim, you can prob inject 6-7 of those straight into the starting 23 and that changes things again

I know it may sound crazy but I reckon the reason why we went duel captains is so we're not feeling like we HAVE to play lmac every week. Backline looks busier by the minute.

You must have been on the sauce thinking this. LMac is as big a lock as any player on the list to play 23 games.

I don’t claim to know why we went 2 Captains but that surely isn’t the reason

 

[Gasometer]

I am a Giants fan and we won a playoff game this year after being in a similar position to the Roos the past couple of years. It can turn with even an average list with the right game plan and focus.

Building a New York Giants Super Bowl contender

It can take many years. But not always.

Stand outs for me were LDU, Goldy, Simpkin, Bonar & Powell. Taz was great when he got a run in the middle, his kicking breaks the game open.

How was bonars rebounding from defence - was it instinctive

Absolutely and the depth players have proven AFL experience.

I also believe that the previous coaches would’ve had the rebuilding ‘phases’ mapped out in their heads (ie 0-2 years to change culture/game plan/training habits and start climbing ladder, 3-4 years to win finals, 5+ years to win flags, etc..).

Since Clarko stepped foot in the door, it seems like there’s a culture of real inclusiveness building across the club. It feels different, the foundation feels solid. I know we’re still going to cop decent losses, but maybe we finally have some hope.

He didn’t provide rebound. It was his defensive game that impressed me. Often winning the ball and dishing it off quickly to the first option.

Wow

Half back is arguably the most attacking position on the ground nowadays and quite often with all the forward pressing, they are found in the front half of the ground.

Complete common sense move with TT.

 

[Horizons_00]

Turner has definitely put on some size. Is he in the best 22?

We're gonna have another rough year if he is

No.

He's fast, hard as a cats head, great aerial ability and beautiful long kick with brilliant vision.

Made for the role in the modern game

Yes, it amuses me when I see calls for Goater to be moved to the wing. Why? Is he not good enough to play HBF?

Been saying for a few years he could be Andrew McLeod.

Goater - Logue - Thomas

Thats a ton of athleticism and size across the HB line.

 

[marklovesbeer]

Eddie flies as Luke gets trodden on. (This was last Friday, so possibly why he sat out the match sim today.)

Awesome stuff from Mahoney here.

 

[JGreezy]

Had Lmac been exclusively backline or playing up the wing or middle?

Backline when I’ve been there.

Horrendous from Bon. If that was match sim, hope a free kick was paid.

Agree that startin at HB works for him but he was way more damaging when he was in the middle.
