Honestly I think the coaching staff have instructed them to purely bring it to ground and not even attempt a contested mark.
That’s why he’s going up one handed.
We used to do the same for Jack when he was slowing down as a player and everyone crucified him on why he wasn’t marking anymore.
Opposition would be clued on with his intercept marking earlier in the year and how many times he saved our asses.
If you were coaching against the tigers he’s the only one you would worry about from that perspective.
Biggest issue I see is opposition mids easily break through his tackles
If he can’t be an inside mid he won’t make it. Needs a monster off season but happy to see him for another year.
Excellent first half, huge tick for Yze from me.
The main disappointment was conceding the two extremely late goals at the end of both quarters which flattered Geelongs score line a tad.
The three gettable set shot misses from Campbell, Sonsie and Macaulife hurt. If we buried at least 2 of them...
Mick McGuane coaches Keilor and I believe is one of the best coaches out there not in the AFL/VFL system.
Will certainly help vouch for Gray’s trajectory to an AFL list.
I honestly thought he was an import at the bulls!
Recently I’ve heard his agent FBK speak very highly of him.
FBK actually seems like the kind of agent who offers wise moves to his young players rather than a cash grab. He orchestrated the move for Yengi to Portsmouth which has proves a...
I don’t see the issue with Gosford hosting.
The league lost me when they did the 5 year deal for Sydney GFs.
If your a Victory supporter who was enraged with that deal you must respect that CCM deserved to host and it is what it is.
A fortnight ago Victory only got 14k? to the first leg of a...
I saw a post that if the Mariners win they will get to host the GF in Gosford which would be awesome for the region.
A huge contrast compared to the ‘festival of football’ or whatever Townsend paraded only a year or so ago where games had to be held in Sydney no matter what.
I'm liking him, starting to get more of it.
He's not playing HBF where you can get cheap uncontested disposals you actually have to earn your disposals as a HFF.
Hoping he can stay injury free and we get more games into him for the remainder of the year.
Circling back to Taranto & Hopper.
We had an inconsistent H&A season in 2022 (13W 8L & 1D) but basically finished comfortably in 7th with 6 pts separating above & below us.
From memory when we had some injuries in the middle of the year we lost some crucial games narrowly and it bit us in the...
I've seen enough from our side earlier in the year to know Yze can coach.
A narrow loss to Carlton when we basically played with 2 on the bench after HT inc losing x2 key defenders during the game against the league best KPF's.
Down by a goal at 3/4 time against Port and faded.
Gutsy win over...
So Banks, Graham and MRJ all will have at least 3 week stints on the sidelines.
Won’t be having much cattle left.
Similar to the Eagles last year we will be getting FA output on the training track with so few players out there you could barely do any match simulation drills.
20 tackles in half of footy considering they’ve had 48% of time with ball in possession is a disgusting statistic. I can accept losing but we aren’t having a crack at all.
How teams constantly break out tackles is beyond me. And it’s not just our kids who can’t stick tackles, it’s premiership...
Very late to the party but just wanted to thank Benny for his service and just as importantly how he’s handled himself to the end.
Never lied, remained as honest as he could be.
The ultimate professional.
Can’t thank him enough for being a huge part of our successes in 2017 & 2019 in...
Against Darcy and Jackson it was inevitable.
I would’ve preferred Ryan over Naismith but there was no way they were going to let Nank ruck solo or we would’ve lost by 15 goals today.
Just need to look at the KPIs
I50s
38 v 59
Clearances
16 v 36
Centre clearances
5 v 14
Tackles
40 v 60
36% of game time ball was in our hands.
Our forward line is completely undermanned as it is but when you have stats like that they don’t even have half a chance.
Desperately need some...
Clearence count for the day
12 v 28
Centre clearences
4 v 10
Defenders are doing ok to concede 10 goals considering the supply that is coming inside of D50
In some of the instances of my inner circle.
They lean on family members such as grandparents to give them a chop out with looking after the kids.
If the grandparents are retired and healthy they love having one on one time with kids and it gives them something to look forward to during the...
