Based on the random snippets I’ve watched of every clubs pre season vids we look very direct, Collingwood are really pushing the spread. Liked Carlton and lions, bombers look odd, west coast are running a fish and chip shop and Hardwick will be good for gc as much as it pains some. I still think we are while off clicking but it’s close. Still to watch the sa and NSW clubs.I reckon this year is the first year we see evidence of Mitchell as a coach and how his game plan stacks up. Is he single minded to a style of play or can he mould it to the group. We get ripped apart in defence regularly and badly again this season then I start to have questions for the first time. If it has tightened and we are scoring more then onwards and upwards.
I think the Blanck injury hurts if we are expecting to play finals and we need a dependable key back to break even on a gorilla. I don’t think it will significantly alter our approach to this season.
I am only laughing at the last bit. Because if we r kicking hundred each week we will be contenders and likely playing finals.

I reckon the hardest part about Mitchel’s games style is having every player function in that flow, roll back to the next line for defence then shuffle back the players that stream through and repeat. Why I think Gunston ends up behind the ball a lot because his basically our on field coach.
I’ll be very happy if we can kick a 100 each week even it means we leak 100…
Realistically probably not possible but it feels like that’s the aim, I believe we have the capability to do it now just not the consistencyI am only laughing at the last bit.

Well considering no team averaged more than 100 last season I'd say it's very unlikely we willI am only laughing at the last bit. Because if we r kicking hundred each week we will be contenders and likely playing finals. Kicking a hundred each week is not as easy as u think.
Esp if we get to 100 before the other team as proven by science in line with the Brereton TheoremI am only laughing at the last bit. Because if we r kicking hundred each week we will be contenders and likely playing finals. Kicking a hundred each week is not as easy as u think.

You often see teams go all out offensive and score 10 goals ......while conceeding 15-16I am only laughing at the last bit. Because if we r kicking hundred each week we will be contenders and likely playing finals. Kicking a hundred each week is not as easy as u think.
Yeah that was us at times last year. We’d go inside 50 over 50 times a game only to see it come out 35 times. You’d think that will be much more difficult for our opponents to do this year with crafty players like Ginnivan, Watson, Chol and Gunston in our forward 50. These guys are all capable of turning half chances into goals. Very different to the battlers we had in there last year. So our efficiency inside 50 should improve. You wanna score from one in two entries and score a goal from one in three. Do that from 50 inside 50s and there’s your 100 pts a game, and you’re on your way to being a bloody good team.You often see teams go all out offensive and score 10 goals ......while conceeding 15-16
The round 1 match against the Scum is absolutely huge in terms of our progress this year.Haha…. If we kick 100 pts each week we will end up winning a minimum of 19 games! I’d settle for scoring 90 points and conceding 75. If we do that, we play finals. The mid to long term losses to injury so far are deflating… particularly Blanck, but DGB and CJ weren’t in our best 22 on form. I reckon we still have the troops to make finals. The biggest difference compared to last year is the forward line potency and flexibility. Even if Lewis goes down early, plonking Gunston at full forward is now an option. He’s good enough for two goals a game from the goal square. I think we can get to 13-14 wins but the start is crucial. Must beat Essendon in Rd 1, and win two of the next four games. Then we’re in for a good season.
Well, that's games v the crows, GWS, Richmond, bye and WC. All winnable. Two at the MCG, one in Launceston and one in Perth.The month of June will be indicative. It’s around this time of year when we usually go to water.
You basing this on our previous terrible coaching/game plan or recently having the youngest side in the comp. & getting sore/tired?The month of June will be indicative. It’s around this time of year when we usually go to water.
More the latter.You basing this on our previous terrible coaching/game plan or recently having the youngest side in the comp. & getting sore/tired?
Me too, not to mention we were two goals up in the VFL game when we arrived. (it's us isn't it?)I had such high hopes heading down to Metricon last year and we looked great for the first 15 mins. Putrid for the remainder of the game. Hoping for a better result this year though

Yeah, I was hopeful we'd have a better start than we have in recent years but with the injuries adding up and the tough opponents, it's going to be difficult. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.It's the tough start that's going to be a bigger issue.
