Don’t get much for a few mill

Moved Aliir forward to match up their spare defender. Next minute, the winning goal is kicked. Coaching masterstroke.

 

[Punts]

Be good if he could coach us to transition the ball better

Thought it was much better today, well maybe not so much the final ball, but at least we didn't struggle to move past halfway like last week against Geelong. Was it because it was at Etihad and not the SCG? Not sure.

Game seems to open up at Etihad more

 

[The King!]

He actually seems to coach quite well when the odds look grim

 

[Olian]

Thought he did well today. Not sure why we play so poorly at the SCG but so freely elsewhere.

Apparently it was Shaw who made the call to send Aliir forward (or at least tried to take the credit for it in the rooms )

I thought we moved the ball well, a lot more aggressively than last week. Skills let us down kicking inside 50, though.

I thought it was because Heeney (and to a lesser extent Papley) was back...

 

[BloodySwan]

The Swans often ran the ball through the middle, Papley spent plenty of time at the centre bounces and influenced a fair bit of them, our midfield stood up without Kennedy, Horse told the players to attack and we won a shootout, Franklin stayed down at full forward the whole game.

Does Horse still have no plan B? Looked a very different gamelan to our normal stuff

 

[The King!]

I think this weeks coaches report

Positive

We won
Tried to attack more
I’ll credit him for Aliir pushing forward late also as he gets blame for errors.


Negative

Odd set ups early
Keeps picking injured players

Kids come in and look good but he only picks them when hand is forced, we finally ditch Hanners and jack, on current form we lose with them in the last

Needs more guts at selection

Overall a C-

 

[Punts]

Until we play a top team and struggle to kick 10 goals like cats , Richmond and break down

Cats arent a top team we really struggled that night.

 

[PVF]

Vastly different last quarter than last week.

Even when down today we gave ourselves a chance to win whereas last week it never felt like we could come back.

Not sure if change up in style or the opposition.

No Heeney or Papley...

We had Heeney and Papley who were massive in the last.

 

[The Gong]

Since we won I'm sure Horse had no hand in it. He's only responsible when we lose.

 

[The King!]

Horse might coach north one day, he seems to like Etihad

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Back to normal as usual

 

[The King!]

Moved Grundy on for his form

Move yourself on John

 

[Blacky]

What a useless campaigner

 

[The King!]

Hate to see how s**t we have to be for the horse blind witnesses to wake up

 

[Neverwas]

Pretty much everybody on this board was saying we should give Sinclair a rest and play Cameron.Pretty well no one was suggesting we should play both at the same time and play Grundy in the reserves.Only horse could come up with this!
