The board deserves NO credit for this victory or ANY beyond until they realise their utter failures and resign.

Fisher has been ordinary this year.

It seems every time he gets the pill he tries to do something 'clever' with it rather than just getting it moving asap....

I think our mids are often looking to get the perfect disposal rather than simply handball to someone in a better position. We get caught too often looking for something that isn’t there rather than giving to the first option

Fish seems to constantly go for these rush little dribble kicks forward

Without Cripps we lose that game. When is the last time we had a player win a game off his own boot and drag us over the line? Probably Fev?
What an absolutely superstar he is, best player in the comp right now by a fair way.

Judd did a few of those across the journey.

Even so, without weitering we would have lost that game.  Very underappreciated he has been this season.

To say we would have lost without Cripps, whilst probably true, is a little too pessimistic for my liking. After q time, no-one was truly horrible which is a nice change  :))

I’d leave Casboult down back. For a while we’ve been saying that, as good as Weits is, he’s not equipped to handle the opposition monsters. Mind you, no-one is having much luck with Hawkins atm.
Speaking of Weits, has anyone noticed his shoulder is no longer strapped? Probably playing injury-free for the first time in 2.5 years.
Jones - IF he comes back, that is (not was - concussion diminishes a person permanently) a horrible incident and injury - i’d like to see tried across the centre as someone has already suggested. Maybe even as a chop out for Cripps? Might be a bit too left field but he does have good closing speed and is certainly not scared to put his body on the line.

 i’m fearful of what might happen when Murphy comes back. I dunno, just feels like the winds of change are in the air and it feels good on my face.

Finally, to add my own touch of pessimism:
Winning rate for first game of coaches appointed mid-season = 50%
Winning rate for second game of same coaches = 19%

True, but they will all be basking in the glory and patting each other on the back.

It was a stirring win though, particularly after the inept first quarter, and even the board has the right to celebrate.

Yep the board is ultimately responsible for each outcome.
Reality always wins in the end.

And who are you saying should take their place?

As one of LOB's critics like to say I was encouraged by his effort yesterday. Didn't look out of place and now some cautious optimism.

Levi looking quite at home down back! Some strong and timely grabs.

A little bit of a shot at Bolton if he did say it....as opposed to Cripps who was all class in mentioning Bolton in his post match.

I heard it mentioned elsewhere earlier today but I'd like to see a direct quote.

Quoted in one of the papers (sorry I forget which one though likely The Age) but I did hear it live on Triple M around 6:30pm Friday. When asked about the selection committee and the potential next coach Judd replied that they won't be appointing anyone needing 'training wheels'.

Judd comments. I hope this link works. A cheap shot indeed.

Try this from the Herald Sun.

Judds comments were;

“We’re not going to bring in a coach where’s there’s a feeling that they have got training wheels on, or there has got to be drop before there’s an uptick.

“We think there’s a lot of talent on our list and whoever comes in, be that a young coach or an old coach, we’re hoping an expecting an uptick on day one.”

The Club that goes from black to white. They have, correctly or otherwise, convinced themselves that our list is star studded, and the new coach has no grace period of any kind. 1980's CFC. Well, at least they've made it public knowledge, so the new coach should be under no illusions.

Great interview on the Sunday Footy Show with Teague. I will post the basics of what he said.
