just read our pressure rating was 155 for the match to go along with a handful of tackles..

I thought we were passed the mouth guard to training stuff.
then it really fell off a cliff. it was 200 in the first quarter I recall from the coverage (and about 160/150 in the 2nd/3rd)
 
Is definitely part of the problem - need to review the balance between guarding space and a defensive press to bring more pressure on the ball carrier. Drives me crazy when I see us run away from the opposition to ensure that our zones are set
Yes, agree 100%, combined with pulling back off the mark drives me nutso
 
Brisbane and Collingwood could very likely be playing off in the Grand Final this year so a little perspective is needed when looking at our last two matches.

The nature of our losses however has exposed the gap between us and the very best.

The Sicily issue is a head scratcher. Many on here were arguing last week to play him forward as we were tall enough down back and didn't need him there. Well Sam tried that and Sicily had no impact at all.

that little cocksu**er Whateley mortified, sounds like he wanted 10 weeks.... when Sam Edmund explained why he won't be reported, little Gerry the pansie nearly had a heart attack
god I hate Whateley, complete w***er.

meanwhile, Sam will be obliged to play Butler next week, and probably Seamus too.
BHH non-listed players are total rubbish.

Geez he's barking up the wrong tree if he thinks that's worthy of a lengthy suspension.

The AFL couldn't possibly go for that one, pure football incident with eyes on the ball. The amount of grief they'd get from the ex-players on panel shows alone would be extreme, and I'm glad they have thought it through at least.
 
Lipinski has a propensity to get concussed. For his own good will have to retire soon.

Obviously player feedback to AFL is just because someone is concussed, it should not lead to a suspension.

The first pushback to Dillon and Kane's incompetence in running the game. MRO was a ducking joke.

Laura Kane is an incompetent fool, but gee, lets not mention that because of all her minorities.,
Game is in an horrendous state, a nincompoop commission (don't worry, I know a few of them as well as Goyder, and they are all numbnuts, including the ex-Hawk president), a CEO way way out of his depth, GM of football with no idea, and a coke head MRO whose personal life would give you a good insight into his confused and often irrational decisions,.
Looks like, finally, our drowning CEO has decided to try to right the ship.
Probably too little too late, but its a start
 
Little slice of luck. Ill take it. Grateful that we dont have Reeves in the squad for the next 3 weeks. Meek is one of the few blkoes who you cant question this season. Has been very consistent.
100% but if he went down (heaven forbid) How about a Ramma/Chol set up, in-lieu of a Reeves/Chol set up?

Dude Chol is proving to be a bit of an Inspector Gadget. Not only is regularly kicking bags of 3 and being a genuine forward target but hes done a pretty admirable job of pinch hitting in the ruck and has contributed a lot pushing up onto the wing and being a connecting player in the midifeld. A Ramsden/Chol ruck combo would be a step backwards compared to Meek on his own but I would be interested to see and probably prefer it to just Reeves.

I've stopped watching 360 as it's now like a love-in, with he and Lyon always in meek agreement with what each other is saying. I miss Robbo, who at least used to challenge the nerd.

Whateley needs to learn what proper professsional commentators do, i.e. act in a non-partisan manner. He has a great example in the commentary box next to him in Huddo, who's a million times better and always impartial. You could never tell that Huddo is a Cats fan. You can always tell that Whateley is.

His head hit the ground, not Meek hitting him
