I hope they fire whoever came up with the kick it long and hope transfer plan.

Wasn't that Denis Pagan before he trained a group one winner?

Geeee Murphy will be sweating it a bit. In the emergencies this week and after this weekend, there are 4 games left and he needs 4 games to make it to 300 games.

Deserved red card

He will play until 300 and retire IMO

If he doesn't make it this year he won't make it. Otherwise we are run by idiots.

Another masterful pivot, whereby you refuse to actually answer the question posed and instead pretend that a different question was asked.

The conversation was centred around our poor exits from stoppages. The rushed blind kicks that more often than not fell into the laps of our opponents. It wasn't about feeding the ball to outside runners who then shanked kicks. I could live with feeding the ball to outside runners who then shanked kicks, because that would indicate that our stoppage work was good and we just needed different outside runners.

One wonders why we have assistants if they don't drive anything. Teague could probably just put his gameplan up on the noticeboard and the players could read it at their leisure.

The assistants are highly paid professional coaches. They exist to teach, develop, coach the players under their remit. I haven't apportioned sole blame to Barker, I agree with you and others that the senior coach has ultimate responsibility for both the game plan and the players. But part of the senior coach's job is delegation, and those delegated with certain areas hold responsibility for those areas as well.

Barker is now gone, and even if he wasn't actively detrimental, having someone new take over his area of responsibility seems to have borne fruit.

Yep if you’re coach is a rookie and you’re stoppage coach is average you’re going to have bad stoppage set ups bad exits and runs of goals scored against you
If you have rookie coach getting feed back from a good midfield coach things will improve I think that is partly what we have seen

The question is ... why would we need Constable when we have Cripps, Kennedy, Dow and Setterfield, with Carroll waiting in the wings?

More balanced midfielders would be ideal.

Liked Constable in his draft but was hoping for more outside speed if bringing in a new mid.

Finally a Constable that Charlie can outrun!

 

[Smegger]

This is one Constable that Charlie can outrun!

Too many CCs

 

[ferrisb]

Two many CCs

That's what my belt keeps telling me...

Not only more of the same we have but Geelong really do see us coming......

Why would we need him at all?

Up until 4-5 weeks ago we needed a Constable because Kennedy and Dow couldn't break into the seniors and Setterfield has been injured and not performing at his best. Why we haven't been playing Kennedy and Dow all year is beyond me.

 

[Jimmae]

I would suggest this is another early conversation as we kick tyres for next year's VFL team or a backup signing.

His agent would be leaking expressions of interest to generate better numbers.

train. That ship has sailed and sadly too has his career. The rule changes have nullified his game.

This doesn't make sense
Just another Setterfield who i think we should trade, tbh id honestly rather Rhys Mathieson
I would like much more if it was Rory Lobb
Or Peter Ladhams

Yes the “bomb-it-long-all-day-but-hesitate-and-go-sideways-when-H-is-one-out” tactical plan.

He is more open to the idea as its hard to break into Cats midfield. Apparently we are interesred.

Out of the 3, newnes would be the least concerning out as there is plenty of coverage

Plus he plays wing, which is where I would like to see Kemp. Has the pace to make a real go of it as well.
