TDK  in an interview interview told of how when Charlie calls "iso", he wants them to clear the space and give him room (ie I assume iso means isolate). For me, divulging tactics in the media in any way shape or form is a no no. I get it, opo coaches know stuff about you already, but let them find it out themselves, dont give the info to them. Attention to detail.

Probably not a great idea to talk tactics in an interview but  Curnow would only have to do it once or twice and the opposition would  see what's going on. and be aware.

You can’t learn as much from a win as you can from a loss or failure. Our next run of games will test Voss and what he has to work with. Collingwood, Melbourne and Sydney. Tough run. Our best game beats the best sides doesn’t eventuate on the scoreboard if you can’t deliver a four quarter effort. I won’t be completely devastated if we drop another 2 or 3 games in our next 5 outings. It builds character and hunger. Not happy that we lost. Never expected to beat the current flag favourites. They are the benchmark. We don’t have the list they have. We don’t have the polish just yet to make the most of our forward 50 entries. Give it time.

We wasted opportunities, but when you get non-decisions with such a bias in the impact of umpiring decisions, it's hard to win, it's like you are battling two opponents all the time.

Dangerflog basically throws himself at opponents legs unpenalised, diving head first hitting blokes below the knees and claiming high contact. Sure he didn't get a free, but he must have tripped or grab the legs of our blokes at least 5 or 6 times, and he basically did his best to use his body to take out our midfield's legs. He ended Judd's career by tunnelling, and he's happy to take others out, opponents needs to start putting some knees in the way of his head!

The umpiring screwed us over on advantage multiple times, sure we wasted footy, but I've not seen a half of footy like the first where the game was so closely contested yet the umpiring was so influential in the outcome.

We were dominant in the midfield, then the Handbaggers were basically permitted to tackle blokes before the ball arrived. Cripps got 3 frees, he should have had 10 or more, it was bullcrap! Then after missing 2 or 3 crucial frees, they give up a nothing evener on the HBF.

While Henry gets 2 of his 3 goals through blatant non-decision push outs by himself and a team-mate.

How do Stanley and Blicavs get to wrap arms around Pitto and TDK, yet be rewarded frees kicks for our blokes holding?

There should be a bunch of blokes apologising to Cripps tonight, he led them into battle and they folded like crepe paper.
