Chappy Presser?

[Nostradumbass]

Did he do the aeroplane out of the presser when it ended?

 

[Achilles Heel]

Did he talk about the four walls?

Did he talk about the four walls?

four walls gotta get a mention tonight when Jack is on 360. I reckon he will say it minimum 3 times.

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Has been working on his strength in one on one contests and believes he is now ready to take on the big boys like Nahas .

Thought he was pretty handy on Saturday. Have to wonder if we would have set up and controlled the ball better in the final minutes against Collingwood if he was there. Bit of an indictment on our backline group if so.

I will go as far as to say even Ty plays better in the FL when Chaplin is around. His influence is that great that legend has it that McCrae uses vision oh Chaplin marshalling the troops in the 1s as a motivation for the 2s and it has been stated that McBean thanked him for winning the vfl goal kicking last year.

 

[Sir_Loin]

Lets not forget his total soft**** performance in last years EF, practically lost the game for us with his pathetic display. He can not be trusted when the heat is on

 

[Rubber Hips]

Basically said what Dimma said and quite possibly off the same PR sheet.

Yes...Chappy stuck to the script as directed

After the loss to Adelaide...Dimma made comments about steps backwards and forwards Sending Shi era through tigers supporters

The next day Dimma was given a script to follow...he said...oh yeah we are still in it to win it and reckon we'll make the 8...

They dragged out Chappy with script in hand to tow the company line...the board sensed unrest amongst supporters

It was Chappy most likely because no one else wanted to do it

 

[Colonel]

For us to be a strong team Chaplin needs to be forgotten

And because he wont be playing this year - 5-10 games tops dependent on Astburys durability

Nah...with Grimes injured, he had no Follow Me

It's a huge problem if we are reliant on him to organise the backline.

He is a huge liability when he is one on one and there were a number of occasions in the past couple of seasons where he was isolated deep and exposed as a result.

 

[exceptional design]

I like him. He screws up like all of our players.
Apart from that he is consistently good.
And if he organises the back line, so Rance can just do his thing, that is even more important, similar to Maxwell at Pies.
He wasn't to blame for the EF, that was Cotchin, Conca, Ellis, Griffiths, Harvey not being tagged, Cotchin not being moved, Batchelor being left on Waite.
North had 13 extra inside 50's, but the back line still kept to a 15 pt margin.
Astbury is not better than him.

 

[Infamy]

Rance is a better player when Chaplin plays.
Rance really has no idea what the **** he's doing really I reckon and Chappy organizes that defence.
Rance can just concentrate on doing what he does best, he looked A bit lost trying to organize blokes when Chappy was out.

Maybe, but I also find it interesting that Astbury had a solid Round 1, very good Round 2 and then was terrible in Round 3 when Chaplin returned to the team.
Hopefully it is just a coincidence as I want to see Astbury play out the whole year to try and take over from Chaplin, if we drop Astbury and keep Chaplin in defence then we are not improving.

I hear what you're saying but Astbury seems a chief offender particularly when the opposition press and he panics. It really makes him look slow.
He's missed a bit of footy so maybe he's finding his feet again but yeah happy to stick with him for now but not sure so far.
If we try not to **** around with the footy he might find some confidence because that style certainly doesn't agree with him.
i think he certainly contests and defends better than Chappy who's more of a link type player than Astbury.

Imo half of the poor disposals from Astbury was his team mates throwing him under the bus.

 

[JackNah_8]

Can we send him back to Port Adelaide?

There was a fair bit of that going on Saturday.

Unfair to Chaplin... looks like Nahas is running on 3 legs.

Oops.

 

[Sir_Loin]

Oops.

God help us all
