Strategy Changes against the Swans Rnd4 - Preuss and Stretch for ANB and KK

It's not that they lost, it's that they lost in exactly the same manner as the senior side lost. The commentary was regularly point out we were over committing to the inside and being outrun on the outside
Also it was clear to see box hill were so much cleaner by hand and foot .
 
People need to calm down lol. We have clearly taken steps backwards, but the coach is contracted until 2022 and most of our players are locked away too. Our start has been horrible, but everyone is out of form in our side. When that changes, we will be ok and maybe sneak into the eight as our hardened bodies perform better as the season goes on.

No use setting fire to the joint, lots of teams go deep into the finals before they were expected to and then struggle to back it up.

Well Richmond first made finals in 2013, didn't make the granny till 2017 when they changed up their mix
Port made the prelim in 14 or 15 haven't been back to the same stage since.

I don't think this list has peaked but it's far from complete either

We should know about missing finals after making em did it for 10 years. Yeah **** me we are only 2 games out the 8 and by round 6 we should have 3 or 4 of our best 22 back. just depends if we can get over the swans and saints and be 2-3. season aint done yet actually not far off clicking.

We have no depth with all these injuries

Watching the Casey game made me feel sick, nobody that could actually step up to AFL level.

Positives-
Maynard, 27 touches which included 17 handballs because of his lack of foot skills
Chandler, 2 goals with 17 touches
Stretch, 20 touches

Jeffy G had 7 touches and no impact at all


Ins- Maynard, Kielty
Outs- ANB, Frost

B-Hibberd, O McDonald, Jetta
HB- Fritsch, Kielty, Salem
C- Brayshaw, Oliver, Jones
HF- Petracca, Weideman, Kolodjashij
F- C Wagner, T McDonald, Melksham
Foll- Gawn, Viney, Harmes
Int- J Wagner, Maynard, Lockhart, Hunt

Not a ****ing hope in hell Maynard comes in for our only 2 way runner

I'm hoping we are mid-2000s Geelong.

Made the finals in 2005, then blew up in 2006 despite being loaded on talent.

Picked up Selwood in the 2006 draft, went on to win the flag in amazing fashion, rest is history...
 
After predicting doom correctly for us over the past 3 weeks I actually reckon we win this week, small ground, good interstate record, team as a whole finally getting "more" match fit, against a team going pretty ordinary also ( with a terrible record at home over the past season or two).

If you can ignore our 2019 game film there are a lot of positives for us this week. 😂
 
I won't panic until I see our side with a fit May, Lever and Lewis back, and an improvement to our depth/bottom 6 (AVB/Hannan/Joel Smith lmao), but our season is gonna be over by the time that happens if we don't pick up some wins soon. Which is why Friday was a huge missed opp, we rolled Essendon in that second quarter. Need to grab those 4 points where you can even when you're playing like shite.
 
Well i said after the game i wanted Petty to come in but reading reports he wasn't very good in the VFL so sadly maybe just have to stick with Frost and Oscar.
I would like to see Stretch get a extended run on the wing. I'm over seeing inside mids play on the wing and they get drawn to the contest.

Tmac is your barometer
When he’s kicking goals and clunking marks you guys look unreal. When he’s down so are the dees. Think when you get may and lever back your backline will be fine. Pig hibberd will be freed up to run and link up with Salem rather then lock down.

Midfield is still A grade
Gawn Viney Oliver brayshaw
Harmes needs to start hurting the oppo’s best mids like the end of last year. Physicality’s hasn’t been the same so far

Like the tigers poor form and a few injuries are hurting us. Teams have come to play eary in 2019 but I think we will both still play finals. Footys funny and a fast start and a few big tackles and goals against Sydney could refresh your mindset and get the boys hungry at the contest again! Oliver will have 40+ on that small ground. Big game

I think it’s a disgrace TMac is even playing right now, bloke looked horrible on Friday night. Our medicos clearing unfit players yet again...
Desperation. Friday night, big opportunity to put a first win on the board. He was never going to be omitted.
 
We are allowed to be desperate, the coaches should be calm and considerate.
Calm and considerate summons a slightly weird vision
Goody: Good afternoon Troy, I hope you are well today
Chaplin: I’m very well thank you Simon
Goody: And how is our forward structure looking this fine afternoon?
Chaplin: It might be slightly substandard but we have one more session scheduled for me to be polite to them
Goody: Thank you Troy. By the way I brought you some tomato sandwiches in case you didn’t have time to make your lunch
Chaplin: That’s very kind of you Simon
