At least we saw against the Eagles some forward marks on the lead (Lefau) or at least from being in front and on the move (Jnr) instead of the slow high kick to the pocket. Maybe luck, maybe coaching instructions. Next few matches will show which.

Apart from being a backup with the body size and strength to cope if Nank is injured, how about what he is doing in the VFL to make it easier for our list players not in the 1sts to develop. Instead of chasing butt from every stopage they can set up proactively, plus he stops a big unit flog...

Not that they all will play 100 games or even become regulars but it shows players can be drafted apart from the main draft. Against a well run club, coached by a long time better than aveage coach and with academy picks we had 6 players Short, Young, Campbell, Picket, Mansour an LeFau in a side...

Lunchtime. Will the big man to improve? While its understandable for his marking touch to be rusty after the time out, ie. zero marks on Sun, it beggars belief that our tallest player with 218 games experience consistently does not get in front in marking contests. He had no hope of even being...

Saw in the sun today the list of of boom or bust picks for each club. You cant give out a player’s weight bc of potential hurt but it is ok to humiliate someone by saying he is the worst pick for your club this century

Although there are many for me the top three I want are 1. Stop allowing unmarked opposition players streaming at top pace past a player after a mark or free and receiving a handball. My health doesnt allow me to attend so I dont know if this is caused by our lack of fitness/chasing or a...

My suggestion. As most games except blowouts against bottom teams are fairly low scoring, play dual chf in kb and ellie mac. Elli mac clas but not a huge possession winner as a midfielder. both those two are great ball handlers, marks kicks and footy iq so we have one leading at the ball...

Now that the defence is settled with his role defined and the other defenders getting used to his strengths, becoming more confident in him, what he brings may be a big reason for arguably Noah's best continuous run of form.

Must be doing a lot right structure wise for the defence. Last 2 matches time on ground above 90% and has always been very high since he started. If he was being taken to the cleaners by his opponent then regardless of structure he would be on the bench say in the 60s % like Miller and others...

Heard that he was interviewed before the Dimma news broke and in his words had to tell a few porkies. The fact he was one of the first told by Dimma himself suggests that he is part of the unannounced leadership group and that he is invested in the Tigers

Shocking spectacle but i never thought i would see a brad scott coached team be more efficient and incisive in ball use than us, and get goals kicked by a payer beong one out and in front. Also we have managed to coach any forward craft and leading out of Ryan that he had and now have him stand...

Been around a while now but against the cats in the second half for the first time i saw signs of wanting to inject himelf into the contest and be involved rather than hanging around on the periphery of the action and only become involved if the ball came into his area. As we all know he may or...

For me the most pleasing thing was the body languauge of Shai, Tim, Dusty and Jacob. All looking 100z invested and involved. Plus the improvement attitude and special glimpses Ryan is showing.

Just because Ryan didn’t kick 5 some posters are taking it as a personal insult he committed against them and needs to be punished. He wasnt great but he kicked one more goal than dusty, had more hitouts than miller, and our time of getting the ball away from clearances for the second week in a...

When a Pie player received the ball he was clear and travelling at full pace, when we received it player was stationary and had to wheel around or was under extreme pressure. Added to that the number of times a Pie ran from behind the player completely unmanned into space whereas we lacked this...

Improved intensity compared to practice matches and stopped the centre bounce slaughter led by cripps we saw lasr year. But to really challenge we need to improve our unpressured kicking like not hitting a man on his own 25 metres away or not giving a forward a. 60 40 chance by putting it to his...

Just read the supporter stuff attending the camp on the RFC site. That and other things like the Tyler Fishlock support makes me very proud to be a tiger supporter

has anyone got access to and can post the match by match votes?

What is annoying is our game style or lack of one. We have 4 who would be elite in any side: Mon, Kb, Ellie and Miller. a bunch of solid week in week out performers; Sheerin, Egan, the Hoskins, Lavey, Seymour, Wakefield, perhaps Graham and shevlin and of course Cordner out injured. The rest like...

Agree definitely moves like a natural footballer and want her in the guts, but for this one low scoring match with kate out and the forward line disfunctional up forward in the second half she could have scored created opportunities for a win

in a game with goals at a premium and with a forward line barely touching it with even courtney wakefield looking 2 years slower after 6 months and no captain Kate surely Ellie Mck could have been tried up there; more pace, strenth. marking abilty and longer natural kick. Loose a bit from the...

4 of his 11 afl matches has had 18 which is fairly close

What a rich vein of form he is in the last few weeks. Running all day, huge possessions and snagging the odd goal. One on one wins the ball most times. Once he gets his body between the ball and opponent, taps it the way he wants to go, uses that low centre of gravity to stay on his feet and...

Doesn’t have Baltas leap at the centre bounce but enough to be surprisingly effective. But at the boundary throw ins used his body better than Balta has in the past. Also great follow up work when the ball hit the deck. Overall not dominated by McEvoy when they were opposed and provided some...

What I really liked was he has started wanting to be involved. Many times had the hands up calling for it whereas before he just wanted to blend into the background. His mark last week and Fyfe tackle are both signs of increased confidence and involvement at this level

Consistently good overhead and as expected doesn’t flinch when he has to wait under a high ball and knows he will receive contact

As well as just getting the plumb job is actually also shutting down other sides most dangerous small forward last few weeks. Bit more than running it out of the backline

Competed hard as usual, but those 2 turnovers of his symptomatic of many of our team when we try the short possesion game. Soft chip style weight on the back foot slow travelling easily intercepted passes, not low bullets. At least our draftees brown banks Clarke plus sonsees dual sidedness are...

Agree. Has steadily improved since moving back last year. No longer as hesitant and now wants the ball, plus is negating some supposedly dangerous forwards. Gibcus and him looking forward is a good base for the defence

all the Sonsie lovers will have to wait another week. Nothing on the RFC site and all the last first gamers have been announced before team selection day
