Dennis pegan said he wanted Carey as captain because the players would follow him .. The board wanted wayne schwass .. Pegans first request as coach was to get Carey as Captain ..

Not so sure it's that clear cut for us ..

Was fantastic in the last quarter, but a lot of his clearances were the 'throw on the boot' kicks that Ziebell gets slated for. Are the different standards applied because Jack is probably the best kick in the team?
I think the critics of Ziebell's kicking are probably the same people who underrate Swallow.

A few of the quick kicks will not come off, but the first possession and clearances are well worth it.

Haha great thread.

Lucky Scotty listened to Arjen and played them in the back pocket... wait... what!
He did listen to me.

I'm sure I said Ziebell should be permanent forward which kinda worked ok. And I said that they should be out of the centre square as much as possible early in games to allow us to throw them in there when we need it.

Ie: the 2nd half.

Not only was it a brilliant tactic which won us the game. It served to remind the world what a sniggering little turd you are.
