GWS Giants Premiership quality football from about halfway through the season. They would want to win a flag in the next year or two before Coniglio (30) Whitfield (29) Kelly (29) are past their best. Tom Green should be looking at Dusty / Petracca finals series in prior years. Love they...

Pretty happy with my predictions this year aside from Collingwood. Always get them wrong. :whitecheck: They were actually really good through the year. But lost two finals despite lots more I50s and scoring shots, simply on bad goalkicking. :whitecheck: :crossmark: Can't seem to get...

I had Giants 8th “Tom Green is better than both Taranto and Hopper and much more skilful. Lots of really nice key position players and flankers. Don't know if Adam Kingsley can coach. If he can, then they should be good.”

Love Toby Bedford! Elite forward pressure is something this team has lacked and it makes such a difference across the field when you have it. Just a great team player. So close to a home final. I’ve got two small kids and can’t get to games these days as it’s 60 minutes each way. But would...

I thought Milera lost track of Daniels defensively a couple of times but it wasn’t a total train wreck by any means. Still think he should be on the wing. Did Thilthorpe ruck in the SANFL because he had to, or because we are now developing him as a ruckman? If we are developing him as a...

If someone else posted this then I missed it. Without having the full breakdown this is the best we get. I listed all players with more than 13 games played for the year, and votes for those we have them. Player Games Votes Votes per game Rory Laird 20 118 5.9 Jordan Dawson 22 114 5.2...

Thanks, fixed.

Yes, it's the difference between predicted ladder position and actual ladder position, for all teams

Interesting to see that of the contrarians, PCORF and Golumless were 1st and equal 2nd. crows dude as coach of the year with the totally out there predictions for equal 5th.

2022 results, if my maths is correct: PCORF - 68 Golumless - 70 benji2 - 70 Concussion test - 70 WetCrow1991 - 72 1970crow - 78 George Kramer - 78 Kenny Dee - 78 crows dude - 78 GameofSloanes - 78 OldCrowBloke - 78 huludicidal - 80 GreyCrow - 84 TubbsFarquhar - 84 Ciao Giacomo - 86 footy4ever -...

Surely no chance of a loss at home to West Coast. They are the worst team in 10 years. Their percentage is 49.9. In GWS first year of 2012, percentage was 46. In 2013 it was 51. With a mix of top old, too young, and fillers. That is West Coast this year. A loss here would be as bad a loss...

A significant challenge for the incoming coach will be the senior players' capability to adapt to a more AFL-level tactical gameplan. Under Leon, for years it has just been gut busting hero ball. No real system or flow. Players hitting each contest one by one. Now we have this established...

Currently sitting 4th on tackle differential at +5.8. I don’t think effort has been the problem. Transition play as you say is the one but that might not happen overnight.

Disagree the problem is effort The problem is at the strategic level. Everything is a grind, an arm wrestle. There hasn’t been any flow since 2016. We decide to switch play from the D50; by the time we have switched the opposition is in a better position on the other wing than us. Players...

Overdue. Played with a real sense of flow in 2016, could easily have won the flag in that year. Despite many gritty wins since then, have never replicated that flow and coherence since 2016. The last 5 years have been a grind. Still loaded with talent. Hopefully, will now get a coach who...

With that said he was overall excellent :rainbow:

I noticed that too. Recall watching a GWS game years ago and Will Hoskin-Elliot did the same thing post mark, pre kick. Dunstall who was commentating called it “loser’s limp” and sure enough WHE missed the kick and then went for more stretches. Loser’s limp.

One more for this week. In round 5 Matt Crouch had 25 possessions. 5 were contested and 20 were uncontested. As I understand it, free kicks are included in contested possessions. Matt Crouch had 5 free kicks. Therefore he had zero contested possessions excluding free kicks. He also had...

Would normally associate this ability more with defenders.

I see it the same way. I think it might also help Hamill improve his game to spend 12 months being the hunter (applying forward pressure). However the time to make that move would have been at the start of pre season.

Universal belief on this forum that players shouldn’t be pushed through niggles. Especially senior players, even more especially when we clearly aren’t in the hunt for anything. Also just about universal optimism that Burgess is the man who will fix the things we don’t like Now it turns out...
