Autopsy Roast vs Geelong & Changes Vs Adelaide

[Tiger_Of_Old]

I’ve said it before; premiership players should automatically qualify for father/son/daughter.

Premiership players and their families are far more part of the club’s fabric and history than the odd random who plays 101 games.

Club should lobbying the AFL.

Saints will ask for Great Grandsons

 

[Coach_Required]

Prestia?

I'd keep him out but your right the club won't. He will come in and I'd sub Mansell or Cumbo

 

[Waca Jr]

Lefau holding his own as a lone key forward with under 10 games to his name.. nah no potential

Get off it

not in the same stratosphere as Gibcus

 

[peterand]

He's a ****ing moron tbh. The amount of times he turns it over with not difficult stuff but really basic stupid kicks is beyond me.

In saying that he's not a forward and should be nowhere near the forward line.

Yes his short pass turnovers do my head in when he. An rin15 and kick it another 65
Also his brain fade fumbles seems to do one every two to three weeks in defence

 

[tora tora tora]

Can someone please tell me what positive things Short brings to the team at the moment?

Its a low bar but I didn't notice as many turn over kicks..

5 ACL's I bet no other AFL club in history has had that many in one season.

I think Lions have 5 ACLs. .. injury list of 8.

 

[Triggering Tiger]

I think Lions have 5 ACLs. .. injury list of 8.

Even if they do we are obviously more decimated at 20 plus injuries.

 

[Philth]

Because he gives it a decent crack every week. Coaches love that shit, especially when you have a lot of young players, you need someone like that who sets the tone with regards to effort.

Great post.
Cannot argue with that.
(Although I’m sure some will try)

 

[kozi]

Can be devo for both, ya know how most are

no ticket on any future Lefau train for you

 

[tiger_tough]

may as well keep him out until after the bye

Disagree. Play him if he's fit.

 

[Triggering Tiger]

Disagree. Play him if he's fit.

We need every one onboard because i've just got a gut feeling there's another reaming on the cards for us on thursday night.

Great post.

Life without Pickett? be interesting to see the selections.

 

[Growapair]

WTF Blight did more in one game than Kosi has all his career lol. Play him because some dud recruiter paid money for him unreal

If you want to develop players like Gray and Blight you need other bigs like Kosi and Young ... for them to compete against at training and for spots

 

[The Mighty]

Whooooose Left?

GOAT gotta have the week off as well.

Might take St Failure that long to win one again they might have to provide DNA samples to prove lineage.

 

[poppa pump]

I agree with grock, OFFICIAL RFC .
Out Dustin Martin ( rested for 300)

Should name Dusty as a late out 5 mins before the game v Crows.

see post 9206 in the dusty thread

“Football can be a cruel game sometimes, and for Mykelti, who has been in terrific form, this is an unfortunate way for his debut season to finish."

Scans have confirmed Mykelti Lefau suffered a ruptured ACL in last night’s match against Geelong
Ffs

That sucks for us and Mykelti

To think we thought he dodged a serious injury the previous week…hope not connected

 

[Rubber Hips]

12months for acls usually...but is there any chance these blokes would be ready by mid year next year?

We'll be starting the year with 4 players on the injury list

Noting Gibcus' history, he's a fair chance to be out for a chunk of next year too

I’m worried about Gibcus…just seems to have rotten luck with injuries

 

[Rubber Hips]

Pity we didn’t draft Archie May in the MSD. He’s in good form and knows our system. Surely we pick him up at the end of the year anyway

No idea why we didn’t use our 3rd pick in the MSD…not as though we had a surplus of KPF….

The point that some players had 18mth contracts is now moot give Lefau

Anyway, I reckon Archie May would have gladly taken a 6 mth gig with the seniors

Nank's toepoke was brilliant, DRioli was brilliant to get it to JGTI and Cumbo provided the contest in the goalsquare which allowed Lefau to be in the perfect front & centre spot and he finishes over his shoulder with a nice snap. Smooth start.

 

[k31th]

Dusty running past Cumbo here and just slotting a nice goal, is always good to see.

 

[k31th]

Nanks intercept to Samson's spoil to JGTI's give to Baker who picks it up superbly from his toes while running forward and then Pickett breaking Atkin's ankles and hitting up Lefau... lovely footy.

 

[k31th]

This one went through so many hands/feet... and a fitting finish to the play with JGTI kicking it off the ground to Baker he did actually hold it just barely long enough to be considered a mark, once I'd looked closely in slowmo.
