The loss of Jones is telling.

Enormous

Coincidentally, despite the loss, how bloody good does it feel to actually be hated again and to have teams playing their non-local rivalry grand final against us?

Been a very long time since we've been able to genuinely say this.

yeah, great........

hopefully just a precuation

Very true but I'm not sure how that relates to Zac Williams, who was the subject of the post I responded to.

Ah I thought you said Setterfield was a much better player at GWS

 

[Blue1980]

Think Kennedy is well ahead of Dow, while pushing the likes of Doc and Walsh to the wings

Same dilemma Teague faced, rotating through LOB, Newnes, Setters and Cottrell is just more and more of the same, and none of them are any better than backup really.

I think it’s time to use doc and Walsh on wings.

 

[Blue1980]

We already have the Lever type. Unfortunately, Jacob is unable to play in his natural role because of the shortage of numbers.

You hit the nail on the head with Gov and OMac.

We need to trade for one at the end of the year. Someone in the 22-25-year-old bracket who is ready to be a shutdown defender.

Free up Jacob to play in his most natural and gifted position and it'll change everything.

Just get Liam Jones back

I really couldnt care whether the opposition loves or hates us. Losing just sucks.

People are getting too high, and too low week to week. We have a whole new football department and coaching team. We are still relatively young, and we are coming from a long way back.

We played a top 4 team last night, we lost our ruckman, missing key backs, learning a new gameplan, and their best was only 5 goals better than us.

Let the year play out. We will have ups and downs, as long as we keep improving it will be a good year

 

[Garters]

All the mids in at the contest, no defensive sweeper goal side, they let us force it out under pressure to a free Freo player at nearly every contest.

That and Freo are well coached defensively in both running and bodywork.

They deserved the win

Kennedy plays this role better than all of them was missed the other night.

 

[Blue Warrior]

Couldn't agree any more.
Docherty would be superb defensive wing, and Walsh a superb attacking wing.
Make this change and bring Dow into the centre, allows him to play to his strength in there.
Shifting the magnets like this would make us incrementally better.
Newnes/Setterfield/Cottrell sorry not going to cut it and probably not a part of our next flag so let's move on from that

Docherty is too valuable to our defensive structure with his leadership,desperation and kicking efficiency out of defense.

Has to be in AA contention for HBF with his current form.

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Pcl? We going the ol commentators diagnosis again are we?

Jeez that means Cripps is still out for another week. Shame.

Voss said it was a significant corkie. Let's go with the coach and not hyperbolic clowns in a box

PCL!!!!!!
Looks like dawg shite, smells like dawg shite.......
Corkie? Knee to knee classic ruckman's PCL, HUMBLE PIE TIME THANKS Skyhorse......
