I think our club could benefit with some good old fashion coaching. They should approach tony lockett to come in to help with the forward line. Imagine him grabbing Jenkins by the throat and telling him to lead at the ball and if there happens to be 2 or 3 players in the way..keep leading right through them and get the ball. If not mr lockett would be waiting for him on the boundary line. It might put the frighteners into him

We need to get back to basics... See ball, get ball, use ball well or chase/harass/tackle when without... & run hard to present or provide options.
We appear to have major mental issues confused with the changing game plan, that we have forgotten about doing the basics well.

You don't
If he's match fit he simply must play ahead of Murphy. If he's not match fit then he needs to play SANFL. Poholke should have been the emergency to sit out. It's insane player management/selection. Rank stupidity.

As much as I love Plugga, he's hardly a scary man anymore.
Jenkins will never be a tough footballer. Never, but what he does have is a huge amount of athletic ability and zero care factor in the world. All you need to do is watch his body language 95% of the time. Bloke is laughing all the way to the bank. I do think that the right coach would play him in a much different role
The problem with the majority of our mob is that they think they're bigger than the club because they don't respect the people involved in the club, despite what they say, their actions prove other wise. How many times have posters here said this exact sentence "Imagine if Clarko was our coach.."..s**t he's even got Ricky Henderson putting his head over the footy. Fact is this playing group has ZERO respect for the coaches. /rant
Gotta keep wing/half back open for the little master Mackay. Our coaches are so stupid.
He was very droppable in that role prior to being switched to half back when we got lucky. And by getting lucky I'm referring to Mackay getting injured.
Was Pyke responsible for the Wigg travelling emergency debacle where there was an SANFL bye the week later and then the state game or something meaning he hadn't played for 3 or 4 weeks. So by the time they realised what everyone bar Vader knew, VB was done at the level, he needed match practice again and that was it for him.
Doubtful that it does.

Even as plugger is now..he would still rip jenkins a new one if he thought he was squibbing itAs much as I love Plugga, he's hardly a scary man anymore.

Plugga would probably get flashbacks to his playing days, start licking his lips and lineup JJ on the playing field. Dude used to love to taunt defenders he was gonna smash 'em if they dared to drop back in the hole.
Read this, thought "This is brilliant".
That Pyke et al don't do this is appalling. Pyke's a proponent of flexibility. Why doesn't he see this, too?
Pyke knows the word, he knows the meaning too but he's just a very average coach who values continuity well ahead of flexibility.

Safe to say, wouldn't make an ounce of difference with Jenkins. Once a softy, always a softy.

I recall him being labeled a tactical genius when we hired him.
I'm not convinced so far
Milera should be 75% midifield and rest up forward, if it’s the other way around our coaches are fickheads.
That’s what I thought, he doesn’t have a tactical bone beyond his original game plan. It’s quite disappointing.

He's got a nous for goals, is a strong overhead mark and great pace.... everything you want from a forward. But I'd rather he play predominantly midfield.

An average coach who played off in a GF

For sure..worst position on the ground was when the coach told their ruck to drop in the hole infront of lockett. Literally they would be looking over their shoulder waiting for the steam train to arrive

Cavo deserved his flags for that alone.

Yeah you can't really teach hardness at the ball. Instinct will always take over.
