Things will slowly turn around. At least publicly and in training, they are showing a great attitude. We played against a team that had a 10 day break at their home with our team having played majority of minutes last week. The collective resolve of the team is growing and we fought it to the...

As much as ideally I'd like to see us make finals, it actually might be a good thing if we miss it altogether and regroup with a better game plan and strategy. We are the only team to play finals every year for the past five seasons. Sometimes a dip isn't a bad thing.

Dunkley is a solid back up ruckman. We are getting the problems earlier in the season and hopefully the guys continue to learn from it. Hopefully we learnt to play in the wet from this game.

I think that is just put there for now. Our actual tickets will reflect what we are assigned automatically if we make it.

I think we should cut Dev more slack. He hasn't played regularly in the Seniors and being in and out, due to the circumstances, means he won't achieve the consistency as quickly. Payne last year was quite inconsistent too. He made a blunder in the Melbourne final by spoiling straight to Pickett...

Not comparing players at all, just comparing situations and needs with what I'm about to say: Back in 01, Hawthorne drafted Hodge because he was the player they needed based on his qualities etc and what they wanted at the time. They could have also drafted Ball or Judd and still become a...

We don't need McKenna to be a superstar, we just need him to use his skill set the best way he can. That way, the team will have that slight percentage improvement as a result and if all the other players do that then as a team, we will make greater progress.

Great work by Ashcroft to choose that number. Learn from some of the best in the competition but also see, day in day out, how the other midfielders (also 2-3 of the competition's best) operate.

The new training singlets are looking good! So youi and Caltex major co-sponsors you'd think?

A fit and firing JL is only a good thing for our midfield. Competition will create higher level of performances throughout the midfield and to me, that will be one of the best things that can happen.

I read somewhere that he moved up north last year.

Please stay away

I wonder if there is a connection between their lack of action during the trade period vs this. It might have been stewing in the background.

I also think your rise up the ladder depends heavily on your people at the top. If you have the right people, that is needed for your club for particularly the stage where it is at, then a lot of other things will start to take care of themselves. We weren't a top 4 team when Hodge, Cameron...
