So averaging 13 possessions +1 goal a game from a half forward is terrible?
Hope we don’t lose by a goal. |
I said he won’t be missed. Not being as good against GWS over his career as Jarryd Blair doesn’t make him “terrible”, it just makes him less of an out than Jarryd Blair would have been. You could try to develop your own view from that. No doubt there’s an explanation for JDG’s worst career record against any opponent consistent with him not having been very, very poor against GWS? |

I would have preferred new boy Chamberlain to have got a game, roll the dice time, no Jordon, take a chance, may as well, after the week from hell this team has endured. Like Ch 7 sticking cameras and mikes, in their faces, our players, last night, going to training, demanding reactions. Glad Mason Cox brushed them away, as you would swat an annoying fly.

Extended Interchange: Tyler Brown, John Noble, Oliver Henry, Trey Ruscoe, Caleb Poulter, Will Hoskin-Elliott, Isaac Chugg, Aiden Begg
Reasonable to expect Noble, H-E and Henry will play. Brown leads the other possibles.

If you can’t get excited about this game (after the week we have had) without a debutant then I think you’re looking at it wrong…

Do you mean Carmichael?
Need to pick the best team available and win - the strongest antidote to the last week’s crap.
This is not a game to “roll the dice…” Don’t think Chugg will come in - would have probably named him as a debutant already.

Unless you are a kp player with an opposition match up you usually stand, or are playing against your old club I don’t know if there’s a statistical basis for “player x doesn’t play well against team y”.

We can't beat them without Jordy.
Club is a mess. Any chance the president can speak or his he just another name on a board. |
I am loving the fact we finally has a president who spends more time working..less time shooting his mouth off.
The club has handled the situation fine. Just got to ride it out...what will be will be. |
While I think it will be a tough game I agree about management. Ignore the noise as best you can. Work it out internally, form a plan and stick together and weather the storm. No one goes off script - this is where the old crew fell down. They’d do the first few steps then Ed would take it upon himself to expand on the matter and talk himself into a corner.
I’m confident Fly, Wrighty etc are pulling all the right strings - even though we (on the outside) don’t necessarily know what they are.

The only players whose absence seems to really hurt their side at the moment are probably Dustin Mrtin and Toby Greene. Pendlebury has been close for us. I haven’t done the stats, but I think we rarely win without his telling distribution.
What wins games is the average quality of your side, plus the overall cohesion of the players in it. On form, without JDG we should win Sunday. |
Couldn’t agree more. Aussie rules is close to the ultimate team game, especially with so many on the ground at one time. Good coaches are looking to spread the load and reduce the reliance on individuals anyway, so it’s counter productive to revolve game plans and strategies around individuals.
If you’re switched on as a collective, then the desired outcome usually looks after itself. If you’re not, you generally get beaten. |
Lockett never played in a premiership team. |

That's correct.
