Serious mismatch between our ball movement strategy and our forward setup was the issue to me. And that is the responsibility of the coaching group.

I am not sure but it seemed such an obvious need down at Geelong and we still refused to do it. Instead letting them cut through our zone all night. Similar to Hawthorn on Thursday night.
Maybe you are right; we might need someone in the coaching box with some 'old school' about them. Certainly don't seem to have any 'old school' style motivators in there.
I wonder if anyone had actually sat Eddie down and told him to stop the lairising crap he's been focused on lately.
he's certainly not watching the pill at the moment
There is something wrong with Cameron or we are AFCing him into a dud.
No where near the play half the time so when he does get it, he feels the need to do something extraordinary. Was terrible against the Hawks.
Another one that would be fascinating in the centre square.
Why we haven't atleast tried it is beyond me.
The most predictable side in the AFL

What troubled me most in that 3rd quarter was that our blokes seemed to have no idea what to do --- how to get the ball and how to use it if they did get it. Very panicked and fumbly, which suggests that they have not been given a method/instructions on how to deal with pressure, other than to execute "our way" more "like us".
Wtf?
Jeez I hope so. Looks like when he's getting beaten, his best efforts go towards MOTY.
W-e-l-l he does kinda watch it ...
...
...
watch it fly back over his head when he jumps extravagantly, too soon, and gives the free away *mutter mutter grumble*

Does Eddie have any choice but to go for MOTY?
He should be crumbing but he's the only player willing to go for a contested mark.. it's ridiculous.

Anyone can say bullshit !
Check frees for and against over the finals of last year, watch the grandfinal, check the frees for and against. People will have you say that the free kick discrepancy is because the wb were faster, more tackles, harder etc, then how come they ended up 7th after the home and away. If you dont the 3 victorian umpires can not be influenced by a national afl media who a 87 % based in Victoria then you are deluding yourselves
So he literally wasnt AFL standard before we drafted him. The club has helped him develop into a player that is respected in the AFL and now you think that same club is turning him into a dud?
Yes, and add tagging in with that too.
When the opposition starts getting momentum, hitting the scoreboard and what we are doing structure wise isn't working why wouldn't we try 5 minutes of man on man just to take them out of their comfort zone? It's time for Don to respond on game day.
What I don't get is at the G, Don changed it up after qtr time to curtail the Hawks gameplan and this time he did nothing.
The first side weeks a big part of his coaching was changing things around.
Early in the first hawks game we were exposed by their wall. So our forwards were repositioned to closer to that wall to stop them getting the free ball out.
That didn't happen this time.
I wonder if Otten and Tex are too slow a forward duo to be able to counter this move. I can't remember if Otto was playing forward or back, he did kick a goal.

Because we allow the action, and perform accordingly to give legs to the notion.
Do the "logic" thing again and I'm going to ask you to leave.

The evidence is you've never played footy at any level beyond primary school, im sure your supercoach numbers are impressive
It was a forced change last time against the Hawks because Jenkins was injured early on - prior to that we were way too tall and too slow in our backline with all of Otten, Hartigan & Talia, we just could not get the ball out quickly and generate any kind of rebound... ironically I think we went into the game with the extra tall in defence to counter for Vickery, for the first quarter it was a decision that was hurting us more than them.
Then the injury to Jenkins - Otten was moved forward and spent time in ruck relief for Sauce. The backline adjusted and all of a sudden we had quick attacks starting from defence. The forward line was either the same height with Otten in (Gov as the additional tall is so much quicker than the others), and when Otten was in the ruck there was more movement and more space for Tex to work in (as an aside, Tex's first game back too was awesome, amazing clean hands picking up half volley passes). That injury and being a tall down for most of the game forced the change to the team structure, and ultimately changed the game - when I think of last Thursday's stubborn refusal to change our structure and account for their loose men in defence, I just shake my head in frustration.
We have been going in too tall since Jenkins has come back from injury because we stubbornly won't drop the good news comeback story of the year in Otten - it has been hurting the team since. At some stage thay have to make the decision between Jenkins and Otten, it just has to be done.

Were you reported for going on and on and on and on to the umpire about the same stupid subject until he/she couldn't stand it any more?
