And talks for ten minutes about it, having a real good whinge that the “afl should do something about it’. FFS it was in the first few minutes of the match, if you’re not good enough to come back from that then you deserve to lose.

“I didn’t know Carlton have beaten us so many times recently, we don’t care and it means nothing to us, it probably means a lot to Carlton but not to us”. Just @#$%&! off.

I just hope keogh smiled.

Please!

Riley struggling a bit vs Rhys Stanley in the VFL at the moment. Will be interesting to see how he battles it out with an AFL standard ruck.

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.

I watched the preseason game against Cats which we won playing Vossy's new game plan.

I saw it again last night. The 45 degree passes. The run and carry. More handball and less bombing.

I dont know what happened, but it all came together in Vossy's last game, when we smashed reigning Premiers in the 2nd half, and haven't looked back since.

I went to that pre-season game, didn't think Cats were really trying and didn't think we looked that convincing with the win. Yes, clearly an attempt to possess it more and move the ball less predictably.

This game was almost finals like in pressure acts — from both sides. Our forward entry was way, way better last night than preseason game, even if inaccuracy in front of goal nearly killed us. the last kick inside F50 was still bombing it in in that pre-season game, especially the second half. I recall Cripps standing 10 m out of the goal square waving to someone on the true wing asking him to kick it to him, was laughable. No movement from our forwards in the second half of that pre-season game.

last night it seemed like only certain players were allowed to kick long F50 entries, FKP like Gov, H, etc. the rest of them looked for the angles and the shorter options, or it was just a case of our mids and small forwards running it inside which happened quite a lot.

is it just me or are the guys playing much more uninhibited. we suddenly seem a lot more extroverted too?


obviously much of the voss footprint is here. but the players seem a helluva lot more relaxed. we also are drawing much different lines in our kicking. lots of those 45º kicks, espesh into the F50. kick in towards the corridor, than out, then back central as we enter F50. zig zagging through the field, rather than straight line bombing it.

its all made possible by the emphasis of two things. handball chains out of hot zones, so by the time we are kicking the ball, there pressure isn't as hot. and our dare. looks like we've been given the green light to turn it over, as long as we're being aggressive about our ball use.

with voss, i always felt like we'd try to play with dare. make a few mistakes and concede turnover goals ... and then the instructions would come out to look after the ball. ie we never persisted with that way for long. with fraser, he's letting them go. same goes when we would have a lead. "look after the ball" and inevitably we'd turn it over bcos guys were too scared to move.

that one turover with 5 mins left when we had the lead. straight up the guts from kick out. we'd have never seen that in the final qtr if we had the lead under voss. but with fraser, we'll see it with less than 5 to go. knowing we need another score if we want to win. he who dares, etc


we will live and die by that sword. and i love that.

Gotta laugh and admire the club’s PR training when they ask the players and Fraser about Voss. Don’t be so gullible please to take the admiration at face value. He was a deadweight and took this club to the brink.

Oh and that’s 3 in a row now with the orange socks

The Henry goal was eerily similar to the kosi Pickett one

But also, Hewett-Newman-Mcgovern-Cripps had a bit of Weiters-Hollands-Doc-Acres

So the players and new coach are lying?

They're towing the company line, put it that way.
