Squiggle tips Demons at 77% chance -- What's your tip? -- Team line-ups »
I didn't ask for the number of finals won in 2019, which is the answer you gave.Context is important.
A horse supporter asked for the number of finals won.
You mean the three matches he took off between Round 5 and Round 9?
So you would rather he train, making the injury worse? He was being managed (not training between matches) and given time off (not playing between Rounds 5-9) what more to you want the club to do? Do you seriously think he was doing no work off the training track?
From an injury that had nothing to do with his heel.
Horse said he spent 20 minutes on the track - his lack of fitness likely contributed to soft tissue injury - He was clearly hampered by the foot/heel injury and the short break did not right this. His hobbling through the 4-6-30 debacle was painful to watch.
Parker? what more do you want from a guy taken pick 40 something in his draft?I think Horse is a good bloke and good coach.
I would say he has only one flaw. Some misjudgments on some individual player's ability. Over-rates some of his players. This makes him human but it does have an adverse impact on overall list management. Reid, Parker and Tippett the obvious examples.
He also probably under-rated Membrey, Nankervis and Mitchell.
So what if he spent 20 minutes on the track, there are other forms of training he can do (and most likely did) to keep his fitness base up away from the playing field. So to keep bringing up what Horse said is a bit misleading and doesn't prove he was so unfit that it solely caused his groin injury and not anything he did during the course of the Round 22 match against GWS that meant he missed the Round 23 match and just make it back for the final.
Your linking events to suit yourself, not on what actually happened. Prove that it was not match related and purely fitness related and I'll admit you have a point.
Where does anyone begrudge Hannebery getting back to full fitness?You discard evidence to protect your narrative.
You similarly take a death riding attitude to Hanners' possible (yet to be proven recovery). It is as if you and one or two others begrudge the idea that he might get back to full fitness and again play wonderful footy, as he did for at least one game on Sunday.

Needed it so much that he lasted two matches before re-injuring himself and thus missed another large block of matches. Such great management clearly
Because St Kilda gave him 10 months off that's why.
Dr RUNVS must be listened to on this. All future injuries must ensure 10 months bed rest as best practice because St Kilda did it.
Pretty churlish, I would have thought.
After being butchered in the 2016GF, Hanners played two more seasons with us. There was no explanation for his form other than chronic injury. There is no evidence that we tried to get him right in a manner, but plenty we kept playing a cooked player.
Like many others I thought it was smart of our Club to offload his contract. I feel less than ordinary about that.
Instead of cooking him even further, Richo (incompetent sacked coach) took the view Hanners' body needed to be rebuilt. Hopefully the Saints have done that for the fella's health and helped restore for him the sheer joy of playing.
No doubt Richo will disappear into the historical dust of failed coaches. I hope and expect Hanners will have cause to remember him with appreciation.
