I have been an impatient Lachie follower. IMO he has been given too much, hasn't had to work for it like other players are required too and he takes it for granted. I do have some good memories of Lachie's play, times when I've relaxed and thought, here we go the boy can play. The times I am...
There is little doubt that Edwards has improved many facets of his game. He seems to have improved his endurance and along with that improvement he has become more agile and quite capable up the ground. However he is more dangerous playing deep. He showed this a month ago but it seems he has...
Normally we draw a decent crowd for this game but I am a little worried about it this weekend. I know that I am feeling pretty flat after last week and if it wasn't a home game I think I would sit it out. My worry is that many less committed supporters will put this game in the why bother basket...
Season over. Enough of the nuff nuffs. Whether it be guys that can't convert, show no poise, can't run a game out. Thomas, Hansen, Rawlings, Cunnington, Ziebel all need to play VFL and earn their spots. Enuff of playing favourites.
Having watched Ben play a bit now I think it is obvious he has a 'natural pivot' of 360+ degrees when in tackles and looking for the perfect release. It is time the club inform the afl and umps association so he can be afforded the same rules that Judd, Black and Dal Santo are. The club could...
After reading some threads today people have mentioned that Bomber Thompson stated on radio that they started preparing for next weeks match during yesterdays last quarter. One of his players said they practised pressure handball drills during that quarter. If this is the case then I think...
I along with most people have been very impressed with Scotts off field coaching over the summer. He is now starting to also show he has what it takes to be a match day coach. He seems in control in the coaches box and has well defined plans regarding rotations and match-ups and importantly the...
In the Sun today there was an article from Aker in which he suggests Sherrin have changed leather suppliers and the balls are now harder than before. I must admit it going me thinking about Drew and whether his damage was done kicking the footy and then ultimately snapped later whilst jogging...
Although I wasn't at this game, so I feel less qualified to offer an opininon the following aspects of this game and many others I find hard to watch:
-Sam Power
-North players not chasing ( More so than some of the stars we have had in the past it was North's relentless desire to pressure...
Power supporters do yourself a favour and watch the replay. Power refused to do anything hard. He didn't shephard or throw his body in. His possessions were generally rushed showing no poise at all. Greenwood on the other hand showed something. Especially in the first half. And it wasn't just...
In my opinion North has been the most consistent club in applying a hard tag to an opposition player. I think it started with Simmo (maybe Romero) as a young kid. I think Simmo is the best I have seen as he had the courage, motor and a leap that many taggers don't seem to have. The role was then...
