Will face his biggest test to date and unfortunately it’s not the field.
No doubt the events of tonight would have rattled the playing group.

Interesting discussion On The Couch tonight. Garrrry saying how much better we look now that Dimma’s gone and Naifan countering with that’s because Dimma was coaching for the future and McQualter is only interested in the now. Buckley used the use of Trent and Dusty as an example of the different priorities of the two coaches.
Like I said, interesting discussion

Disagree with Buckley. Dimma was definitely coaching for the present. Not being in contention and having a possible rebuild on the horizon would have definitely factored into his decision to leave.
I agree. You can’t make that call with any confidence when Hopper is out.
I think mini has made some great tweaks. The team look to be playing more naturally as per our years on top.
Another big test with the forward line structure coming up. Mansell and Pickett are both out who have being playing big roles up forward. I am not sure we have anyone with their running ability in the seconds to apply the same level of pressure. Maybe MJ but he really battled last week.
Yep cupboard is bare. Mansell's goal on the weekend was quality. Nice curler on a 60 degree angle on the run and clearly growing in confidence. He obviously puts his body on the line too. Trezise/Miller seemed the most likely to me of the AFL players - Miller had an almost game in that he almost marked the ball four or five times for a shot at goal.
Miller is not the replacement for either.
Trezise does make sense but he has been playing off half back. Bauer the other one.
I suspect a shuffling of players within the current team.
Yep I worded it poorly. They looked the only likely ones to me sort of in form. For them to come in it’s means a lot of shuffling.
Increased ball security, Carts. Smart move for a coach whose players keep coughing it up. Smart in the minor leagues.
Well done Mini....again. Gave that old dill previous boss of yours a real lesson.
Don’t know him, nor his footy nous. But to get us back in the game tonight after the early avalanche and the results so far in his tenure make him destined for a top job somewhere, if not Tiges. Good speaker, calm and his only downfalls are that he hasn’t coached elsewhere in 14 years and that he is the dreaded caretaker coach. Love that he has put players back in their positions

McQualter is proving to be a real breath of fresh air for the team.
Going well is the interim coach.

We're all square then, we weren't to happy losing a final to s stand in team either
Move of the night was shifting Baker into the midfield into the last quarter. Added energy into a midfield that was looking tired.
Pumped his fist for about .2 of a sec in last q then back to 100 p.c calm what a guy
