Not sure if he has been told to rein in the dash but it definitely appeared he was playing within his limitations. He has also been very good defensively. In our best few over the first two games.
This is what will get blokes dropped first and foremost. It's been two games now.
Sure we are have been fumbly and wasteful but lack of effort is not negotiable. It's a career killer
You are wording this as though Reeves was dominating in the ruck and it was solely the midfielders dropping the ball (literally and figuratively).
This wasn't the case. Reeves had total 9 hitouts to advantage for the match. Goldstein had 8. Hardly a difference. Goldy nullified Reeves strength...
Massimo had one of the better first games I can remember as a new recruit from another club. Normally takes a while to gel.
The early signs for all three of Massimo, Ginnivan and Chol look really promising. Massive upgrade on Bramble, Brockman and Kosi
If the Doggies really have their heart set on Watson then it may be interesting if he is still on the board at our pick. They may offer us something silly on the niight to move from 5 to 4.
No. I'm equating the Maynard smother with a Rugby charge down gone wrong and how it would be officiated in that sport. Nothing to do with a comparison to Sicily's tackle or any tackle for that matter.
I also watch a bit of rugby and for me the Maynard incident was alot like a rugby collision with two players running at each other and colliding front on.
In rugby this would be at a minimum a Yellow card sin bin but more likely a straight Red send off. Intent, accident, going for the ball...
I'm amazed so many want to keep Jeka. It seems a classic case of his stocks keep rising the less he plays.
He couldn't crack it as a forward. Which means other players on potentially rocky ground such as Kosi, Greene and Ryan were seen as better options ahead of him.
And he couldn't get a game...
I would play our strongest side with the intention of finishing the year on a high with a good win. Freo are traveling and will be flat after a poor year. I think Mitch will want to smash them.
Players play sore the whole year. Resting them for the last game to 'freshen up early' makes zero...
Serong was fantastic. Good size and great composure with ball in hand. I can see him being ahead of Frost R1 next year. With Blanck now holding FB, Frost may find himself behind Serong, Sic, Scrim as 2nd/3rd tall defender
I liked that Sammy showed bold coaching today being unafraid to back his...
Ess v GWS should be all the evidence the AFL need to scrap all this rubbish talk of any future wild card round. Bog average teams like the Bombers will fill these games.
That was an interesting listen. And a good insight as to why players can get asked to go back to the twos and work on an aspect of their game where the coaches want to see change. It's also a massive endorsement of how Scrim has been head down bum up and embraced what Sammy has demanded.
Those...
The WA teams would know from a long way out what he is worth. I doubt the last few weeks would make any difference.
If he were to want out, the best result for us would come from both WA teams wanting him. If not then our hands are very much tied in any negotiation
From touch and go when Stephens was brought over pre-season, to a key pillar in the most exciting up and coming midfield in the comp. His turn around in form had been extraordinary. Looking and playing like he is loving his footy and his mates.
I feel that Ryan was always coming back in although now it will be in Lewis' place rather than DGB. A forward line of Ryan, DGB and Kosi will be an interesting watch. Hopefully May and co don't afford them enough respect and we surprise.
I would bring Brockman in for Chad. Brocky is still a...
Bont was largely ineffectual. Amazed he got coaches votes. As his direct opponent for large parts of the game, Nash should have reveived votes before him
What's just so frustrating about the Sicily non-50 at the kick-in and the Worpel non-free when Libba was injured, is that they should be clear cut simple decisions if the umpire knows the rules. No need to be open to any interpretation.

Well it worked against the Pies. Kosi has taken Meek's spot in any case as back up forward/ruck so one would think Ryan simply replaces RGB next game. But both Ryan and Kosi may be fighting long term against Rama to keep their place.
While Kosi lacks for finesse he makes up for it by being...
