I reckon that poster on LU is actually an AFL fan pulling the piss, going over the top and seeing how far he can push it and for how long. No one there has noticed. It’s brilliant. Or he is PVL.
A 20th team is so far down the track I am nit sure why we are taking so much about it. The AFL will see how Tas goes - how the new stadium works, how the list building mechanisms works, etc, before they canvas a 20th team, and before they out it to the clubs for a vote. I predict that in 2020...
With his best behind him, we can clearly see that he is not the GOAT. Miles behind Leigh Matthew’s in a similar role. But still, what a career. A more apt thread title would be ‘Is he the Tigers GOAT’.
Obviously Lewis in for Ramsden if fit.
Gunston isn’t close to a recall.
Butler out. Has shown nothing to suggest that is a capable of this level.
Serong in. Hardwick back. Weddle high half forward. Amon wing. Ward was horrible but had been building until GC game. Back McKenzie in, HH starts...
A 20th team does not add an extra game every week. Just 11/12 more games. If it placed in a market with similar appeal to GWS or GC, it might actually cost the game money. Another timeslot and more games overlapping is not what the broadcasters want. Reckon we will sit at 19 for quite a while.
Hawks play the next three three Sundays in the new 4pm slot. With school back reckon there will be some poor crowds. 3.20pm is ok, but 4pm is too late for anyone with primary school aged kids.
Weddle is not a natural defender. His body work and positioning is poor. He is a great mark when he gets a run at it but not good close to the oppo goal. He looks like a wingman or forward to me.
Scrim has lifted. Should not be playing KPD, but has been very consistent.
Ward shirked the...
I wanted him in the backline because I thought out backline needed him more. It is clear that our new forward line is not working - there is no cohesion at all. He should start and stay forward every week. Make him captain of the forward lime - Bruest and Gunston are cooked and Wingard is not...
Ward is steadily improving. Has genuine pace at times. Needs to keep building his belief that he will be a top line player. He has played his last VFL game.
Just returned from GR. The whole thing was a little more flat than I expected. The town was reasonable busy, but not quite buzzing.
Hawks Pies games had about 15k each of Pies/Hawks/neutrals and the atmosphere was nothing like a normal game. It was quiet (until the last 15 mins anyway). I was...
Tom Morris said each team would play in two gather rounds. That is not possible.
I just returned from GR and the whole thing was a little flat. I reckon rotation is the answer, not expansion.
Agree with Serong in.
Hardwick to the Leigh Matthews marking FP/FF role.
HH back to BH to regain form.
Cmac to sub.
I don’t like the idea of Finn coming in and out depending on who we are playing. That makes it very hard on the young man. For now, leave him in and in a months time if it is not...
Ill informed post by the journo. Showring’s capacity will be nominal (3k - 4K), Easter is Lions Thurs. Good Friday game and Easter Hawks v Cats. And the NRL has Homebush all sewn up over Easter. If Gather Rnd moves to Sydney it will stay the middle week of school holidays. Plus. You cannot...
