The 2021 season was so bad but we have 2 3 more years with this group
A strong pre season is needed and I believe that Simpson knows what's going on.
I certainly will speak to him at pre season training
An example of unity at Melbourne.
Petracca hid his Norm Smith medal at the party so as not to break the spirit of the team
This is what we need and even more selflessness.
I think Simpson realises this
Simpson kept on talking about how the eagles could not stop
The run ons the opposition went on.
This is another symptom of lack of energy and unity in the eagles
Threadmarks: In my opinion our problem is lack of teamwork, not being selflesslike Melbourne and not our players. Mind you aquick midfielder from the hdraft would be great
There was a foul vibe at the Eagles 2021
The 90 point thrashings were examples where good team on paper plays with no heart
Maybe there were demons at the club, hey hey
Something wasnt right
Good to know that the current team has still got 2 years to go for a premiership

Another important fact is that Melbourne themselves did not get into the 8 last year.
This year they came with a unified team, probably noticing that they had some real talent at training and went for it.
Bulldogs were too buggered to finish off the grand final so the margin is not a real...
I studied the 3rd quater against Brisbane in round 23 and noticed the effort of the players in getting back in the game.
The fightback stopped when silly Cole gave a goal away.
This short period was vintage Eagles and was noted by Simpson in an interview.
I believe that Simpson knows that the...

Simon Goodwin in his post game interview said something so important. The team is selfless.
This is where we have slipped since 2018, and our performance against Collingwood was an example of this.
I have faith in Adam Simpson to get back to 2018 selflessness.
In the game against Port Adelaide early in the year Eagles showed what they can do.
Simpson obviously has seen that there was not much unity throuhout the year
Adam Simpson has hit the nail on the head. He called for unity throughout the club.
The vibe in some of the games this year was bad, especially in the Hurn milestone game against Collingwood.
THE game against St Kilda where we were 33 points up and then capitulated was another game where care...
In 2022 we just need to play with intensity.
Everything else will fall into place
Looking forward to pre season training to see the players attitudes.
In Simpsons year summary he pointed the promising moments like the 3rd quater against thr Lions
That was a quater with good tackling
Its great to be back.
The only problem Eagles have is their poor tackling.
Notice those times in the last few games when we had aggressive quaters , we scored alot more and looked good.
SIMPLE
Cant wait to see pre season training to sense the attitude of the team.
I will certainly get into...
If you don't remember me, I am the dude who predicted the EAGLES would finish high on the ladder in 2011 based on pre season attitude at training.
This is after getting the wooden spoon in 2010.
I also predicted the Eagles would win the premiership in 2018.
I am now predicting that the Eagles...
Yes!!!,
The Eagles form late in 1914 is the start of a new era of Eagles challenging for top 4 for a few years.
The discovery of Mac Govern and Elliot Yeo is awesome.
We should trust Simpson because he got Eagles to play with Cripps, McGinnity, and Hill together
Which seemed like a stupid thing...

Interchange Lycett, Tunbridge, new midfielder, another new midfielder
Priddis played today as good as Sam Mitchell from Hawthorn playing his type of game.
So today was an A grade performance by Priddis.
I have a sneaky suspicion that this will continue into next year.
People who rubbish his handpass dont notice that often he is in the bottom of a pack and...
Priddis played a great game.
Might be because Simpson comes from Hawthorn where lowering eyes to hit forwards is done thing.
Maybe Simpson is trying to instil this into Priddis to bring to his bag of tricks.
He can dodge in very close congestion already now.
Shuey also had a great game and...
