What do you want to see in 2025 preseason games ???

[heavho]

I would love to see Reidy,Jackson and Darcy in a game together but Darcy might not be ready. To see Jackson as a permanent forward pushing up the ground and leaving the ruck duties to Darcy and reidy would be nice to see.

Shia Bolton pushed up the ground and as with Federick also.Use the two to use their pace and X factor to get the ball in the hands of the likes of Jackson,treacy,amiss,swita,walters,Sturt etc

A midfield rotation of the likes of Erasmus,Johnson,young,brayshaw, sharp,o Driscoll,Brodie,serong

Maybe even test a McDonald,Pearce, Draper as the key backs put cox forward and use Jackson as a ruck rover. Something we could try to change things up.

This is just my thoughts would love to see some other things you might like to see trialed during pre season.

Decent forward/ mid connection.

Higher Conversion of stoppage dominance to goals.

Just the basics and no injures!!!!!

I would add connecting outside of defensive 50 to that. The way we got the ball out of the defensive half was criticized by a lot of the media during our games and rightfully so.

Yeah you can add that to the list for sure.

Be nice to see some clean, quick ball movement across the ground.

I reckon having 2 genuine wingers will help.

When I first glanced at your post, my ageing eyes read it as Randy Jackson.

I find it extremely hard to take much out of pre season games other than -

• praying for no injuries
• the excitement that footy’s back and the dawn of the season is near

Other than that, I’ve noticed very little correlation between wins/losses/performance in the pre season vs the actual season.

Even moments in pre season games where it looks like we’ve unlocked a brand new weapon or that things have finally clicked - seem to have no bearing come round 1. See - Nat Fyfe as a dominant power forward, Bailey Banfield as a future Brownlow medalist etc

Nothing, they're meaningless.

Just hope to get through unscathed.

 

[Tonga Bob]

A premiership.

 

[Jezzitizle]

Interested to see if the new backline coach changes how we play, especially moving the ball.

 

[clivenator26]

3 rucks doesn’t work. It didn’t work with Sandi, Griffin and Clarke.

Reidy wasn’t great at AFL level, but maybe he would’ve been alright if we played him that Geelong game.

We did win a game once by a bees dick with Sandi on one leg, a young Darcy & committed Lobb but we don’t need to see it again unless it means they are the only 22 fit players we have.

I want the same thing every year for preseason: NO injuries.

Save the good stuff for when 4 points are in the line.

 

[Raz]

Already too many in trainingand intraclub match

We need to perhaps jsutstill the 2nd 22 into the preseason games and rest the best 22

Jokes at anothers mistakes are usually seen by the recipeint as Bullying

To be truly funny , we should make fun our own mistakes.


But lets move on no harm done.

 

[deputy]

I wouldn't mind seeing Patrick Voss have a run in the back line.He is in a que for a forward role so why not add a string to his bow .If Cox and Pearce have any injuries Voss might be able to step in.He gives me a bit of a Sam Collins Feel

noted
i do make a lot of mistakes, so there should be plenty of ammo.
i have recently realised that i was a bully, being a jock & a scholar, but mainly a joker, not realising that poking fun of others was bullying.
sorry
