    Coach Future of the Club (Bevo; Board; Assistant Coaches; Football Department) - Part 2

    He was covered off in post I replied to, but yes the loss of Treloar, Weightman and JUH for the season effectively plus injuries to Bont and Darcy obviously hurt and hit our top end hard. Reasonably confident we could have taken another game or two with better availability.

    I might have missed the full context - I was talking about availability generally of our best players.

    Coach Future of the Club (Bevo; Board; Assistant Coaches; Football Department) - Part 2

    He’s oddly inarticulate for a senior coach. Contrast him with Longmire and Simpson, who are articulate, self-deprecating and insightful.

    He had seven disposals and a goal after six weeks in the reserves. Not exactly making us look stupid yet.

    There was Weightman out for the year as well, Darcy’s 7 weeks and JUH’s disappearance. From the squad we had for the year, there was some drama at the top end.

    Naughton marked it, so Emmett actually did what he was meant to.

    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    I don’t think the coaching staff thought “gee we’re undefeated on top of the ladder, let’s pick a new, unworkable game style”. The Essendon game is where Richards and English’s issues started and it’s been a procession since. One thing we were doing was executing a lot of short kicks in the...

    I think the style has changed because the personnel have changed.

    The FRO.

    He looked like a streaker running into the play. Absolutely NFI.

    They were awful but I think nerves is a factor. He’s clearly got potential.

    I think there are times they are meant to follow certain instructions and times they are meant to do things differently. With midfielders, they set up differently if a stoppage is 15 metres further up etc. Same for each group. Apparently some players have a lot of trouble keeping up. Not sure...

    We’re also losing to sides who will likely be finalists. It’s not doom and gloom. It’s not likely we’ll rebound enough to do real damage without some serious change of luck.

    I’ve been repeatedly told the fellow second from left is Picken. I thought I saw Honeychurch in another photo.

    Another bugbear and I know it may be unpopular - I don’t love the idea of Collingwood and Essendon having a mortgage on Anzac Day but I think having the minute’s silence etc on the Thursday night two days before is token and dilutes the real occasion’s significance. It really feels like it’s to...
