    Autopsy Round 9, 2024: Hawthorn v St.Kilda

    When you look at our list it seems quite unbalanced. We have: Nas Hill Sinclair Wilson Wood Bonner Henry They are quite similar in the role they play. Problem is we only have so many spots to put them. As a result we end up placing them in spots to the detriment of others. Sincs made his name...

    Kudos to you. I can't afford to spend 8 hours on the road for a 2 and a bit hour game. Who says you have to be boring to be competitive? First 10 rounds last year weren't boring. And we were competitive.

    My apologies for missing those two. I'm not saying take all senior blokes out. But give this year the chance to try some new things. See if King can play elsewhere. I've got my membership. One were I don't have the luxury of actually getting to games. Don't live in Melbourne. But when I was...

    What I would like to see is a more free flowing attacking game. One that includes skills appropriate for AFL not AusKick. I don't see us winning enough from here to make finals. Why would I want to sit in no man's land of between 9-12. If I'm missing finals I want a pick in the Top 10. We...

    Yeah he's said this before as well. Slight dig at the fact that they supposedly follow the plans way too well... We play like we have and we won't win this. The Freo scoreline against the Swans doesn't tell the whole story.

    Autopsy Round 9, 2024: Hawthorn v St.Kilda

    It's as if they are told to play to a specific plan for the first half and then things are altered at half time. But the problem with that is that they still second guess themselves and don't take the best option. Difference between our first 10 rounds last year and the first 9 this year was a...

    VFL 2024 Sandringham Zebras

    No it's everyone else's problem. Sandy don't have any AFL listed St Kilda players out there. None that are trained and developed under the watchful eye of the Senior coach. I've been told it's the assistants! Something stinks down at Moorabbin.

    Autopsy Round 9, 2024: Hawthorn v St.Kilda

    This year our skills have gone backwards and all those that had years of improvement last year have gone backwards. The question is why? What happened?

    The problem is that he is the only one creating anything in the middle. If mids were winning the ball he wouldn't need to just grab it and roost it forward.

    Autopsy Round 9, 2024: Hawthorn v St.Kilda

    What this year so far has shown us is that we don't really have a clear path. Players brought in add to a position that we have players for. Hb flankers and wingers. Don't get me wrong I love Darcy. Reckon he is easily our best pick in 5 years. But we have now plenty of wingers and hb flankers...

    Oldest team we have put out there. Next best was 25yrs 6 months and that was against the Pies and North

    May want to rethink that. We had the older and more experienced team on the park. But sure call those of us who are tired of the same s**t a pussy.

    Autopsy Round 9, 2024: Hawthorn v St.Kilda

    The kind of la la land where former players had voiced displeasure and where wealthy 'supporters' wanted to have an impact. Reminds me of the Blight appointment. Don't have an actual process. As if there would be any better coaches out there...
