Would rather let Schofield coach the second half of 2024 and then open up the field with a thorough recruitment process.
Yeah I don't mind this now. he goes missing. one place the ball always is in our defence he'd see a lot of itNeed to play Harley off the hbf so that he can get his hands on the ball and set up play.
I will be amazed if Gaff isn't back next weekWe saw last week Barnett brought in despite being clearly not ready for AFL football.
We saw Jack Williams brought in this week an despite the early goal he is clearly not ready for AFL footy (I don't think he ever will be, his speed and agility is just not good enough)
The team has dropped players off of performance and rewarded WAFL performance so far this year, there just isn't anyone there ready to come in.
Burgiel now injured AFAIK, Brockman potentially injured (don't have an update yet) so who are we going to bring in.
Jones was also beyond horrendous.
So what, what are the options, really.
Are we back to Outs: Jack Williams, Brockman, Jones
In: Dewar, Rawlinson and Witherden?
It's not pretty reading.
This is such a misreading of situation.
We won clearances cos we had extras around the ball. As soon as it came out, dogs had extras around the ground which helped them
Move the ball with ease.
Go and check out all our inside 50’s compared with theirs and tell me how the two are equal.
A high bomb from Yeo as a shallow inside 50 is not equal to the quality of inside 50 ball the bulldogs delivered.
I don’t care what the stats sheet says. We were out worked, out done and out played.
This “we had same number of I50’s” is a misnomer.
I will be amazed if Gaff isn't back next week
Harley to half back…Sadly no Burgiel to come in. Only Witho. Maybe Baker is an option.
Fair enough , see if Chesser gets 29 possies in the waflTBH with how horrendous Chesser was, Gaff deserves to be back. 7 disposals, zero marks, zero tackles, zero clearances, 1 inside 50 and 1 contested possession.
Stick with him but he's not an AFL footballer. Lacks athleticism and competitiveness, not. A great mix for a KPF.stick with Williams up forward.
Bring in Hall in the guts and play him all year.

Phil, this is not the thread for sensibility. Please take your thoughts elsewhere.We saw last week Barnett brought in despite being clearly not ready for AFL football.

I don’t know if he would. Our defensive movement is usually one of the lockdown defenders grabbing the ball and booting it as far as they can. Hardly any ability to chip it around and get cheapies, backline just under too much pressureYeah I don't mind this now. he goes missing. one place the ball always is in our defence he'd see a lot of it

I've said multiple times the two best position for him is only mid with bench rest.Need to play Harley off the hbf so that he can get his hands on the ball and set up play.
He might at least try and run it outI don’t know if he would. Our defensive movement is usually one of the lockdown defenders grabbing the ball and booting it as far as they can. Hardly any ability to chip it around and get cheapies, backline just under too much pressure
Problem with that line of thinking, is it those in the know got us into this position with terrible drafting and allowing credits in the bank dictate selection. So right now it's hard to trust those in the know to get it right.If you have been paying attention to those in the know , our worst was yet to come with change, as the team gells, happening towards the end of the year.
We have to suck it up and not carry on like spoilt brats.
I'm going to drive from Geelong to Adelaide to watch us be dismembered by Sydney next weekend. I'm questioning my sanity however.Any fan that attends next home game has my full admiration. You’re twice the fan that I am.
We've still gone backwards relative to the rest of the competition. Maybe the end of 23 and the start of 24 is the bottom, but we need to see actual improvement in both team and player performances.I feel like we are closer to a genuine turn this year than we were last year, even with the worse results.
Oscar and Liam back will be nice too.
Hough gets another body in my opinion. I know weightman kicked 2, but they weren’t exactly on Brady. Kept him to 8 touches. Really coming along
Talking about the savvy posters eg, wce Phil, Dylan82 etc.Problem with that line of thinking, is it those in the know got us into this position with terrible drafting and allowing credits in the bank dictate selection. So right now it's hard to trust those in the know to get it right.
It's not like Gaff's last game for us was any better thoughTBH with how horrendous Chesser was, Gaff deserves to be back. 7 disposals, zero marks, zero tackles, zero clearances, 1 inside 50 and 1 contested possession.
