    Game Day 2019 Rising Star

    So why do you quote me to say this?

    Game Day 2019 Rising Star

    An obviously impressive showing by Rozee. He and Walsh seriously distorted the spread of votes to the extent if it weren't for Chris Johnson's bloc voting for 3-5 was a waste.

    List Mgmt. Player List Management 2019-20

    It absolutely doesn't. For a man with his injury history Billy added in far too many suspensions or near suspensions in the SANFL. There's fitness and there's talent but there's also 'the vibe' about a player (good or bad) and it's entirely possible both parties would think a fresh start is...

    2nds Ports v Crows, qualifying final.

    Now there's a question! I haven't seen such a great topic for a 5,000 word essay since I was at uni. You know as far as playing another AFL reserves team I think we've seen a 'no monkey business' set of decisions. I swear if we or the Crows-lites were playing one of the SANFL teams this week...

    2nds Ports v Crows, qualifying final.

    Selection: SANFL Qualifying Final So quite a capable team. Decent reward for the top-up players and the AFL-listed players who've had little or no chance to play AFL. Hopefully we perform well enough for long enough to attract/retain decent top-up players in 2020. Good to see my 2019 Port...

    2nds Ports v Crows, qualifying final.

    Yeah, the first pages here with so many uninformed and bile-filled posts were something to behold. Significantly GremioPower stood out for good info, even though the rug eventually got pulled out from under him with the adjusted list of eligible players.

    They're not crazily different in stats if you look them up on Footywire. But Kelly had a few less possessions and a few more goals in a more successful team so just on that I'm sure any neutral judge would give it to him.

    Not really. Made the expanded team which is fair. Might have overcome a few down games in a very uneven team but for the drop-off in accuracy kicking for goal from a few years ago. 30+ possessions is great but needed to produce more than 10G 13B.

    Surely not expressed that way, or there's no point in having a contract. Perhaps something like will be paid out at 80% (or whatever) if terminated?

    Analysis Sliding Doors: the 3 games that swang our season

    One of a whole series of games where we were blown away early. I'd start a thread on it now if I wan't going out soon. It was as significant a trait of our 2019 season as the lose a winnable one /win a difficult one pattern.

    Analysis Sliding Doors: the 3 games that swang our season

    So what's 'prototypical'? Each loss was different. Brisbane at the Gabba hit us with an astonishing scoring blitz with about 15 minutes to go. Almost impossible for the coaches to restructure then, if the players can't sort it out it's over. Richmond at AO we had the appearance of a forward...

    It takes the thread off-topic but there was some reason for that, not form. Not that I'm claiming to know that reason.

    Analysis Sliding Doors: the 3 games that swang our season

    No it's not. Well certainly not the 1st two. Sometimes a behind is a fair crack at a goal that goes awry. And sometimes it is a stronger opposition swatting a few through for an easy kick-out. Or the result of a desperate team having a low percentage shot at goal because it is just not...

    The candle is already out. Assuming what I heard a little while back is true even if the Doggies lose narrowly or draw we'd need to win by about 100 points to beat Hawthorn's 5% advantage over us.
