You've never made an error?
(You don't need to answer that, we know the answer)

If thats your big 'gotcha' moment, i feel sorry for you.

Again, don't make me bring up your 'facts' - ostrich.
I forgive mistakes, I also admit them, but it's not a mistake with you as it happens too often.

You go to war over lies that you post, and then when things get tough you start making personal slurs.

I'll give you the last say, because it's the only way you shut up.

Did i not just admit it and fixed the error. Its a typing error, (forward 50 instead of forward half, as i wrote immediately before which you highlighted. It is not a statistical one.
Your errors are mathematical ones. You even went as far to suggest i seek some assistance in working them out.
Suprirse surprise you were wrong. Did you admit it? No, you ostriched it as always.
Don't recall....

I see no evidence of either.

Don't bother about responding. I don't care.
Just stop making stuff up. Stop trying to play the man and nit pick innocent errors and focus on the actual points being made.
You are one step away from 'they're their there' point scoring tactics.  ::)
You never stick to the debate on hand and always go off on a tangent to 'cover your mistakes'.
For the record, i'm not the only one who notices you go missing when you are incorrect.
Others have called you out on it too.

Some people will give Saad votes, but he had a Barry Crocker, I wouldn't guess but I suspect a significant percentage of Saad's own possessions were fixing his feck ups. He'll get credit for that and he'll get votes, but it burns opportunities, by the time he's fixed things the opposition are set and we can't score.

In recent weeks he has defended well, but his ball use has become Boweresque, the fans need to lay off the Whoosh as it's gone to his head.

Players 5m away from the nearest opponent(or anybody) dropping chest marks, sure they clean it up but the wasted seconds are terminal.

Blokes in unhindered clear space tripping over the footy, nobody in the vicinity, pick the fecking thing up before anything else!



was thinking, during the game, that saad doesnt get off the chain like he used to.  isnt taking on defenders and isnt trying to pierce the oppo with his kicks.   on the other side, yes, he was uncharacteristically sloppy

the number of fumbles and dropped easy marks, esp in defense, really stood out.  maybe just one of those nights.  it is catching once it starts.  it both cost goals to them,  as well as putting a halt to a scoring chain for us

Saad is playing injured.

Every week he stays down for longer than he should and is under duress.
Not sure the nature of it, other than 'leg', but he is far from 100% IMO.
I'm surprised he is as effective as he has been considering his legs are his weapon.

Rolled his ankle a few weeks  back....Playing injured?...I suspect he's not Robinson Crusoe.

Far from it.

I suggested a few weeks back that we rest these player rather than trying to push through.

Now here we are a few weeks later, with more injuries than we can deal with, still carrying the injured players and fighting for our lives to make the finals.
Idiocy!

Curnow is one of our longest and most accurate kicks.
He doesn't need to be within 30-40 metres of the goal...especially if it's being lobbed on his head.
Our small forwards don't take a lot of advantage of balls spilled in front of goals.



Saw some stats that he drops into the 30% or less when he’s more than 40m from goal

Can someone / anyone answer the following:
1) we cant our forwards take pack marks?????
2) Why cant our backs stop forwards taking pack marks??
3) why do we continually kick the ball to a pack in the forward line.
4) why dont our forwards lead
5) why dont our small forwards crumb

why, why why and one more thing why


The above confusion and frustrate me so (swear word) much.

AND (take a breath) gutted watching that gane, trying to win in 10 mins of footy. Spare me.

That surprises me.
Because he's pretty good with those long range swings on goal.
His field kicking to targets when he's well out from goal is good too.

Happy to see Cripps coaches votes - one small positive from the game.

Really hoping he gets another Brownlow this year 🤞🏼

For whatever reason, his pinpoint passes that travel 60m are easy. His 50m shots at goal are difficult.
If he just pictured a bloke in the stand wearing a carlton jumper behind the goal, instead of the goals, we'd be laughing.

#1 is answered by #3.
#2 is because the opposition dont do #3
#4 because of #3
#5 partly because the opposition are better at it, knowing #3.

I know H and Charlie get smashed continuously when going for mark but I’ve noticed with both of them they seem to be easy to push over Or out wrestle. Neither seems like that big brute Forward.  Whilst of course there are advantages to being more agile to move easier and faster, a bit more being able to stick solid on the spot or in the least make it very difficult for someone to push you aside.
