Do you need to bomb it all the time? The problem is more to everybody go for the ball instead of crumbing.

Me too , but to had such a game plan and in top 4 they already over archieve . Hardwick deserve to go if they can't win a match in final.

They don't score enough. They will need to lift there if they want to go far.
Well, this is the reason I think they'll be bundled out in straight sets. We all saw the finals last year and the way the game changed. It was all about putting immense pressure on the ball carrier. The will not have the space and time to find the small men in the forward line and be rushed into bombing long. Take out Jack Reiwoldt and their game plan is finished. I could be wrong about all this of course.
The Bulldogs won the flag, I think Richmond will do better than expected. if they win the flag, the roof will be off with regards to small forward lines and most teams will follow suit.
Mmm AA is a good defender also from Perth... Sydney have Salary Cap issues... means Cox can stay forward.
Need to be creative sometimes!

It's all about mobility for me. Your marking forwards need to be capable below their feet, need to be able to run their leggies off to catch the defenders.
There is nothing impressive about that bloke, no tank, tries to side step everyone and often turns it over deep inside defensive 50. I wouldn't play him in defense at all. Maybe reinvent himself as a ruck forward.

That stuff was on twitter yesterday and Hasleby mentioned it on Monday night as a rumour.
Not sure if that twitter link above is an AFL approved page - or if the logo has just been appropriated. Mitch Cleary tweeted something similar, along with the McGovern/Wilson to Fremantle possibility. ie NFI like the rest of us.
From what I've read of match reports Aliir Aliir has been playing ruck/forward of late for Sydney. He kicked 3 goals against Gold Coast weekend before last.
Think he's still contracted till the end of next year. Sydney just signed up Sam Reid who was due to be out of contract at the end of the year - so perhaps there's a salary cap squeeze.
Hard to get a read on NEAFL form because Sydney is top of the ladder with a percentage of 233+

It's actually ridiculous how many players we are linked to. I'd love to know how much of it is legit.
A.Pearce is coming from a long way back. I'd be surprised if he became a regular next season. He will hopefully come good but has missed a lot of footy
Fyfe is the example. Took him half the season to semi resemble pre-legbreak-Nat

It's a hack journalist's dream. Last season we got the ball rolling getting four and poured fuel on the fire by stating we'd be targeting young WA boys that may want to come home. They can literally put every WA players name less than 25 playing east of the Nullarbor on a dart board and have a nee target/link everyday until the trade period begins.
See Hagdorn and Langdon
I think he'd be good for Peel

I'm not a fan of Aliir^2
I'd prefer we didn't bring players in just for the sake of it.

I would go for that. I think people are selling a 22 year old tall with just 16 games a bit short. He was very bad at the start of this year (PCL interrupted as well) but man he showed some serious flashes last year. Inconsistent, sure, but some games he was very good.
All about price of course, and a lot depends on A. Pearce.
I don't know why people aren't a fan of Aliir Aliir. I was a big fan last year and if it wasn't for injury would have played in the GF (and could have helped Sydney win it).
I don't know what happened this year- I think minor disciplinary things at the wrong time & Mellican took his spot.
Would happily see him in Purple next year.

we pretty much cover every conceivable bulldust scenerio....but it is enjoyable
Why are people mocking Carey for that suggestion? We desperately need a forward and have a bit of money to splash around, Lynch is a very good young forward. People on here are way into WA players, just because Lynch isn't from Perth doesn't mean we shouldn't try and lure him over, a dominant forward is a dominant forward, regardless where he is from, it'd be harder to convince him to come over, but we'd be stupid not to try. Carey is being mocked, which is confusing considering he's essentially stating the obvious.
