NOW YOU'RE JUST SOME CLUB THAT I USED TO KNOW.

I was disgusted last night. Too many waiting for someone else to light the fire. Something that Judd has done over the years. A lot of out of form players a lot of injuries. They scored goals much too easily. Henderson should have been down back all night. I watched the start of the match wondering when and how we were going to score our first goal, obviously Mick asked the same thing and so we had henderson forward all night at the expense of our backline. Mick he needs to stay back! Put walker forward.

Mick your obsession with the boundary line is not working. Your pal Pagan discovered that his game plan didnt work with us either, Why? Simply because we are not good enough with our team structure to execute another teams game plan. The young resurgent teams are all developing their own team play methodology , its time we did the same.
Start playing the Kids, we need to put some pressure on certain players who are so bloated with their own bathwater to be embarrassing.

Mick I have been a supporter , but you need to take some real action, lest you lose more supporters like me.

padre , why like u and not like me???

you mean the tall handsome supporters or something???

and what real action do you expect he takes??

Consider it a date.

I would have thoughts it's pretty simple. Its no different to most other games.
Our contested footy is fine, it's what we do with the ball when we win it. The contemporary methodology is to retain possessions at all costs. Ours is to put it back into a 50/50 situation again.
Hence why our marks inside 50 and our inside 50 total is deficient. We gain possession, kick to a 50/50 contest, if we're lucky enough to win that, we kick to a 50/50 contest and so on. The successful teams win the ball and control it with uncontested possession. They run, carry, handball to players in space and deliver with time and space.
They also put the ball into the hands of their quality users where our contested ball winners are usually the ones blasting it forward.

Its been obvious since the start of last year. we don't have any uncontested footy because our methodology doesn't cater to it. Bringing in 30 outside receivers won't remedy the problem. The way to fix it is to let the players play the game instead of telling them where and when to kick the ball. Especially when the opposition are often better suited to receiving it.

As for stats. Most clubs use the same provider so if our 1%ers, contested footy, tackles etc are up, its an accurate reflection. Unfortunately we look slow and insipid because the players are knackered from winning the ball and then watching it sail back over their heads.
