    I don't for one second want to suggest TTR is emotional or irrational... 😉... ... but imho Khamis was better than Coffield. Either way, exactly that. There's no defenders to come in, so I suspect they both stay. Edit: while I'm here, Sanders was clearly 'fatigued' (yeah. Don't like using that...

    Preview Changes Vs Golden Toast

    Not necessarily directed at you, but I'm seeing a bit of this in different threads... Brown kicked 2 goals. One was from a TERRIBLE umpiring decision in the goal square (that definitely wasn't Baku's fault), the other was from an awful turnover at half back where Khamis was left 1 on 2 and was...

    Autopsy The Good (lol!) The Bad and the Beveridge.

    He tried, but I think he was the one who physically struggled the most. Bit slow, zero leap.

    Autopsy The Good (lol!) The Bad and the Beveridge.

    I haven't read the entire 20 pages, so forgive me if I'm on the wrong page completely. This was the first game I've seen live in a while (since the 2016 GF in fact... 😬). I was bottom tier just best the cheer squad, so not the best place to be analytical. But, I didn't think Baku was bad at...

    Game Day 2024 Round ZERO Discussion

    Add Flanders... Most will have Sextonne. Cadman would be handy (and in fact there's now 5 or 6 of them who, in a normal year, look like they'd be more than handy). Big decisions, I agree.

    Training 2024 Pre-season training

    I haven't read it yet, but there's an obvious 3rd take from extra numbers around a stoppages too... ...and that is that we're generally outnumbered either forward of the ball (and so it's harder for us to score) or behind (it's easier for the opposition to score). [Having said that the numbers...

    Will Jackson outscore Daicos over the first 5 rounds? It's a pretty tough argument against IMHO... (As such, I'm just doing a wookie switcharoo). Getting Daicos in around that round 6-7 mark is obviously problematic, but this way you'll get to keep a structure you think is a good thing.

    I haven't got them on me but will find out in the next day or 2... ...but I suspect scores from clearances as a % of overall clearance wins is a decent start. (Ageee 100% that other factors are involved, though). If we could get an I50 as a % of clearance wins?... (I don't know if that's a thing? )

    Contrary to the contrary... (I do enjoy these kind of discussions)... [This is very unscientific as I'm being particularly lazy] 58 stoppages yesterday in a pre-season game (notoriously open and somewhat bruise free). 9 tackles. 58 stoppages v. North at Marvel last year. (7 tackles) 75 (I...

    Fremantle :Tom Emmet 182k FWD: 11 disposals, 1 mark, 1 goal and 2 behinds, used the ball poorly... There seems to be a lot on the Freo board talking him up for Rd. 1.

    Will be interesting to see the stats from the Dogs game. Eye test for 2nd and 3rd quarters, seemed to me that both Baku and Coffield played pretty well. Baku will be higher possession/mark, Coffield a potential higher SC ceiling. 🤔 Edit: Sorry, was possibly better discussed in the pre-season...

    Very interesting question. I'm starting to genuinely suspect that English misses more games than he plays this year. (The words both the Club and he himself are using don't fill me with any confidence at all. I reckon he's one decent knock away from missing a massive chunk of games). I doubt...

    I want there but I've read 'our' reports... Sounds like it was a very, VERY experimental game. All sorts of players in all sorts of funky positions. (Like Naughton effectively playing on-ball). Sounds like Darcy played well, but fitness (and Naughton being a definite starter at CFH) still a...

    Not that I'm aware. Always happy to be proved wrong, but all I've seen is a lot of words like "hopeful" and "adamant" from the Club. No mention of a specific injury. I can only point you back to the actual quotes in that report. "Protocol" and "symptoms" aren't words generally used for...

    Love the dedication and the output, ITK, but I'm not sure about your English call. "Lingering protocol issues [and symptoms] from last year", Tim "doesn't know when he'll be back for physical training"... I don't think you can possibly say that, "from looking at him, he's not too far away."...
