Join us…. Is it just me or since we smashed the Power in round 3, they’ve adopted the same mantra and similar gameplan. Or is it just I am seeing things through black n white glasses. Good ol Kenny’s been reading the McRae handbook. He already had the lovefest with his players. Now Adelaide...

Made a quick top 5 for interest 1) Darcy Cameron (I’m prepared to admit I thought he def wasn’t up to it, been good) 2) John Noble (feel far more assured now when he has possession, had a great year) 3) Nathan Murphy (always thought he had the ability, though had no confidence in his body) 4)...

Every member in the team played a part in this sterling victory last night, no passengers whatsoever Pig - ask Kelly Checkers - amazing last qtr Cox - unbelievable start Grundy - solid at the death Daicos - brilliant all night Jordy - wonderful goal Adams - gutsy all night and great block Even...

Couldn’t find a thread on Reidy, Just wanted to give the man a thumbs up for his efforts the last few weeks. TBH I thought his time was up and although not dominant he is still playing a fine role, giving the selection panel food for thought re forward structure Nice problems to have. He...

Before i finally go to sleep (somehow), just wanna give Levi Greenwood some credit for his game tonight also. Looked as fit as I’ve seen in a while and kept working all nite. Thought it was one of his better games for quite a while and his toughness is vital. Doesn’t ever get a wrap but played...

Seriously has there ever been a tighter race toward Sept. 1st -12Th still in the hunt, 4 weeks out. Loving the fact every nearly every match has meaning, not liking the fact there is a vulnerability about our position now. Those friggin Hawks have reignited their season (yuk) they never go away...

Dear Jamie As u have noticed the club imploding around u, please find a way to rectify your back issue asap. Shiatsu, Reiki, Cupping, Thai, goddamn Buddhist prayer perhaps, anything to get u back. We desperately need an injection of class. Look forward to ur timely return.

Would be handy inclusions. On form probably would be in top 22 right now. Thomas is at least good enough to be considered on our midfields current form and Keefe has attributes we lack. Hope they are keeping their fitness up.

So we advance to Saturday night with a shadow clearly over our great club. Can we triumph over adversity or wilt under the weight of uncertainty. As a supporter of this club resilience is paramount, I hope the player's ethos is matching. Nothing worse than when one's ethics are questioned...

I would actually like to see Mooney get a run this week. He has shown glimpses recently whereby he has taken the game on and has the strength now to be at least given an opportunity at the highest level. How much further development does he need in the magoos to continue on as a player on our...

Excited by the fact that Kennedy is re-signing and hopefully Broomhead follows suit. Though heard that Frost is not yet resigned. Don't get me wrong, whilst I am excited by these two young on ballers, if Frost doesn't re-sign it would be a major blow. Has been instrumental in our early victories...

I don't understand why these three aren't in the side together and rotated between mid and forward for stints. They all have deficiencies to spend long periods in the midfield, but have the smarts to kick your odd 1 or 2 goals. By rotating we can develop them in the midfield(strength, size...

Has there ever been a season in memory whereby there are as many potential finals contenders (Top 8) that is? At this point in time you could virtually make a case for all teams except probably St.Kilda, GWS and the DEEs. It probably won't pan out as thought, but heck 15 teams with some sort of...

Kudos to Port Adelaide, but hec, that was a shocker. Without doubt our worst performance in 2 months. Except for Swan and to a minor degree Williams, Caf, Blair and Beams, the rest were very very ordinary. Shaw has issues when players agitate his small brain Maxwell made poor look even poorer...

I know Goldsack primarily is used as a utility, however at times I feel it can deny somebody more consistent a role. Seldom does he do enough to justify his spot and if he has an ordinary game he never seems to come under much scrutiny. Like Maxwell I feel he gets games on the basis of what he...

Ok, it is obvious we are at a point in the season now whereby we seriously need to reassess our overall capabilities. Initially with all the players available it seemed apparent to not only the supporters, but the players and staff that we were destined for a top 4 position. Did we get ahead of...

Just a point on Daisy, seems to be very inconspicous in matches this year as opposed to last season. Can't recall a game in 2012 whereby he has produced 4 quarters. Is it a fitness issue, form or is he being played out of position. In fact not sure what is his best position these days. Thoughts.

With our current ruck issues as a support mechanism for Jolly, little surprising to see he hasn't been given at least one opportunity throughout the year. Although not blessed with strength at the moment, however needs an experience at top level and Wood offers absolutely nothing so worth some...

Versatility and Depth SERIOUSLY how versatile are we at the moment. Notably Caff - forward,mid,back,tag? Obrien - back,mid,forward? Heater - back,mid,forward? Swan - anywhere he likes. Wellers - mid,forward Thomas - back,mid,forward. The list goes on. Not sure whether the saints have this...

Does anybody think it is time to introduce or re-introduce a few of the VFL players. At present i think we lack a little spark (except for dick), wouldn't mind seeing Goldsack get a run, throw in Blight, maybe try out one of the newbies Thomas,Sinclair maybe. Thoughts?

I might go to church and seek divine inspiration for Sean Rusling. We need a fresh approach to our ordinary attack. Can we give him a new body perhaps. Will he ever return?

Just wondering whether anybody thought having a third forward option may have stretched Geelong's backs last night. I think on a bigger ground like the G, on occasions we can get away with a third tall as Cloke and Dawes are very mobile and without the Skunk last night we missed that extra...

Is it just possible he could be a better find than those drafted above him in his year? Seems to sum up situations brilliantly and reads the play exceptionally well. Last night although he didn't have that many possesions, how he used the ball was outstanding i thought. Rarely makes mistakes and...

With all this recent discussion about our new big emerging midfielders in Sidey,Beams and the boot, i was wondering at what stage people thought McCarthy's career is at. Looked like being anything 12 months ago,however doesn't seem to get consistent matches at the top level to progress further...

Never been an avid fan of Ben Reid until yesterday, i noticed his awareness of the situation has improved tenfold on previous efforts and his ability to spoil and negate was excellent. With a well structured set of backmen around him i believe he could develop into a very useful player. Liked...

What song should our players be listening to motivate them on Sat? Just listening to Massive Attack (Unfinished Sympathy) and felt this type of song zoned? Besides our job is unfinished. Any thoughts or suggestions.:cool:

Is it just me or is harry o playing a far more defensive negating role in recent matches. Admittedly he denied the Porpoise much of the ball last night (shut right out), however i feel the team plays far better when he is a link up and uses his flair and run more. Thoughts?
