I don’t get to many games being from the country, but went to the Collingwood game last year and I thought Willie was the player who single-handedly kept us in the game. Every time he touched the ball something good happened. Was super impressed.
All I want is a ruckman that can hit taps to advantage, and jump in the air and take a mark around the ground. How is it that our recruiters have failed to identify a single bloke who can do these basic things in the last 10 years
Lots to work with but a few times last night when the ball hit the ground he was 20 feet in the air doing a triple somersault with a twist. Can’t play much defence from up there
The “current” club also pulls out these wins, which keeps the embers burning. Ironically, these types of wins are a symptom of how sick this club is, a few awful losses redeemed in some eyes with a “great” win. This is pathetic, so hard to watch yo-yo performances year after year. Just get a...
I realise Big Footy members probably represent a tiny fraction of supporters, but this comment really struck a chord with me, even though it seems this is so obvious to supporters that grew up loving the club in the 70’s thru to the mid 90’s. I’m just shattered at what is going on, and apart...
All the theatrics aside, if the club can’t see that over a long period of time that Hinkley coached teams:
have no sustainable game plan against top 8 sides
rely all too often on individual brilliance or the whole team being “up”
have continued poor kicking skills
can’t give supporters an...
Until we have 2 cycles of no infection it is a factual risk to ease restrictions, especially in the lead up to Xmas. I am a hospital worker so have had to wear a mask all day the last 2 weeks in the office. After a couple of days you get used it no problems. I would have no issues with the govt...
Not sure if denigrating Crows players adds anything to this forum. I dislike the Crows as much as anyone, but that is due to their heritage, management and SA SANFL pissant types. Open slather for them.
I think the club must be putting a lot of faith in our current mix of midfielders to carry us the next few years. I have some faith, but seems a risk that our older players could drop off a cliff and the young guys might be a year or too short of development?
Jay Sheedy was on ABC radio this morning. When asked about Lachie Jones he reckoned he is better than Wingard and Trengove at the same age, and that Crows should bid on him with one of their first 2 picks, making it interesting for Port
He sees players in position that others don’t, and to top it off he fires off 20 mtr handballs to those players without those players having to change direction or stride, just incredible to watch
Watching all the various highlights from this game, how often do Richmond players push/nudge marking players under the ball. In fairness to the umps they spotted a few, but not having watched Richmond a lot I wonder if this a regular thing they do?
Re discussion on Flu vs Covid, to me it is clear that the health burden in places like New York, where it was clearly left unchecked for a significant time before distancing measures were introduced, demonstrates that Covid is a largely more dangerous disease than than the Flu. In terms of...
