I use stats to back my argumwnt, not form my argument.

Get the ball in the hands of both and Jagga and Lord and out your life on the line of them finding a teammate.
99% will pick jagga.
The 1% who pick lord will not know who Jagga is or be related to Lord.  ;)

Im not on a witch hunt. Elijah was by far the worst user of the ball, lord may have been next

Nah
You've got a set on him for some reason. ;)  :D
We've had our differences over the summer.
I mentioned at one stage I thought Lord and Wilson would be players that improved this year.
You seem to have taken an opposite view for both of them..
Have a look at our B& F voting for this game.
Lord features.
You'll give these guys a a serve when they do do something poorly and ignore them when they do something well.
Prove me wrong. ;)

Answer me this. Has he improved in his last 2 seasons?

He's still the tough nut.
He's still going to give you his all.
His minutes has improved due to personnel and circumstances, but has he?

You say i have something against him (and Wilson).
I say you have navy blue glasses on when viewing them.

I had similar conversations about Jaxon Binns last year and was told the same thing.
Remind me how he is going this year?  :-[

I don't get all the hate for boyd.
Clearly not rated by the mc.
Not well liked by our own supporters.

I don't know if it's got to do with him painting his nails or something equally nonsensical, but a his user of the ball who likes getting physical and flying the flag is something we could use at afl level right now.

To me he looks to play better at afl level. Maybe it's the pristine surfaces of afl over vfl that helps his kicking, but given newman, saad, cowan, carroll (williams?) All out and/or struggling....give him a go
Id have Boyd in for the injured Saad..

I would have been interested in hearing Docherty's thoughts on how this could be remedied.

As an aside, I infer from his later clarification that Gorringe aired the message on his phone without a clearance from Doc. Poor form if I'm right.

I think its pretty clear isnt it? Pretty much everything Doc spoke about was coaching based. No plan B. Game plan is Taxing. Can't change when the game opens up and when it does we get smashed.

Been the same thing since Voss arrived. Won 2 finals by the skin of our teeth apart from that havent been close. Not sure Voss is capable of more then what we have seen.

Machettes were involved again. Word is the 22 YO deceased man was not part of the initial fight between the teenagers but stepped in to try to deescalate things. Terrible and reality is 3 out 4 are under 18 so very likely will be out on bail walking the streets in coming days.

Police station is literally 300m from where this occurred but due to cuts is no longer manned 24hr.
 
Victorias debt is now 160 billion and goes up every hour by 1 million dollars plus. There is a shortfall of police numbers of about 1500 forcing the closing of Police Stations. Recruitment can't keep pace with demand, the crims are winning.
Only way out for Victoria is if the Federal Government bail out the Allan Government but Albo doesn't want to know and said he is responsible for his budget so no help there.
