I love Charlie but he is a massive worry. He didn’t seem to want physical contact last night and couldn’t even lay a tackle. And 3 years left on his contract!

His wrist looks rooted. He tried to tackle last night and was left clutching his wrist.
 
Andrew Dillon is already preparing the leak to Ralphy about the rigorous umpire review process and the likelihood that the ump is banished to Siberia.

Was paying $1.01. Weakest afl administration in history.

Consistent with the explanation that De Goey was trying to smother the ball with his shoulder.

This administration is hanging on by a thread. Basically going to be entirely led by the VFL from here out for a while.

Can someone make a gif of the free kick given against Rayner for me? The replay is at about 2:01:30 on the Kayo broadcast.
Just as soft as the ones he got but crickets and that is shitting me to tears.
Watch it again, you must have been dreaming!
 
Levi won’t play in the 2’s. He will have his first actual pre-season after this campaign ends. Plenty of time to watch tape and work on his game. He’s played 24 games as a first year player, coming off shoulder surgery. He’s had an amazing season.
Well I’m just not seeing how he demands a spot but I admit he isn’t shy at getting involved.
Not saying he won’t be a great player for us at all , just think he is too hesitant with decisions and too focused on handballing and does not have a great kick.
I’d be playing Bruce on the wing before Levi all day and every day .
I’m talking about the present mind you.
Nothing personal
Wrong thread I guess but I’d also think about McKenna down back and have fletch on one wing.

Caro calling it an ‘injustice’ and a ‘disaster for the AFL’ lol. It’s a soft free!

Only people who were hurt by it are people who bet cats +40 and who cares about gamblers.

I think similar to his brother Levi needs to work on his disposal and defensive work. I’d like to see him make the wing his own.

Can’t see him going past Dunkley, Clug, Wash, Annable or Bailey as an onballer any time soon

The non holding the ball on Blicavs from many years ago was an injustice

This was just a bit of silly fun

Keep things in perspective on Annable. He’s never played an AFL game in his life.

If you read the cats board they’re more upset with their win than we are with the loss.

Cam did good.

We really need to talk to our younger kids about being more defensively minded. We need more accountability across the park. The pain we would feel if Dunkley went down would be horrible to watch

Yeah it’s on Annable to go past Levi at this point. I think Levi is an absolute gun inside mid and will force his way in there a some point over the next season or two
 
Slight shades of 2003 but remember folks we have been virtually playing a final every week for the past 8-10 weeks with our draw and banged up bodies, I still have faith in the boys to get up the for the semi and get back to the MCG in a couple of weeks.
Agree. Even with Neale a likely out, confident we handle either the Suns or Freo next week at the GABBA

A minor downside of the high draft pick kids not having to work as hard defensively as juniors? The upside is that the young guys all look willing to put in to improve their games over an off season.

Dunkley does cover up a multitude of defensive sins that allows the rest of our mids to play forward of the contest.
 
What evidence do you have for thinking this?
Annable can run both ways and tackle..

Not sure its his shoulder although Levi just does not want to do a hard tackle.
Will the same.
Love to see stats of tackles not the hugs after a ball up. The ones when a player is open and on the run.
A lot of our players just heard them do not go in and drop them.
Apart from Dunks.. Oscar used to as well. We miss that
Berry shoulder he did not want to tackle last night fair enough.
Think something up with Charlie wrist or elbow he not laying them.
Nor Ah Chee as well.

All fine if we get hands first on ball. If we do not we cannot count on Dunks only to tackle and Harris to intercept.

We only have a few good tacklers on the team really. Dunks and Cam would be our best. Berry is good too but obviously can’t atm with the shoulder. Charlie can when he wants to but maybe he is playing injured like others have mentioned. Another factor we’ve missed having Kiddy out of the team is his tackling, not just his elite foot skills.

Starce used to be really good before he got the head knocks.

Add Lester to that list.

Didn't sight annabel in the vfl today. Just checked 7 touches. Given his reputation he must have been injured as didn't watch every moment of the first half.
