GAME DAY Tiges V Giants

We got to keep Coleman-Jones - simple as that. Forward/Ruck with genuine ability in both positions

Really looking forward to the Paralympics to lift my spirits ... particularly the chair basketball.
Play all the kids next week. Give them a look at AFL one more time before preseason. I hate seeing us get humiliated but a loss next week is to our benefit

Reckon the hawks will beat us next week in Clarko's last game as Hawthorn coach

Gotta say I'm a bit ho hum on CCJ. Doesn't seem the type to rip a game apart. But if it's a choice between him and Chol it's all the way with CCJ!

Can these fu^#*% clowns in the commentary box see that the Tigers are even interested.

Theyve snatched it you clampets.

Seasons been over since the Eagles disaster.
That loss has destroyed us.
2 wins since that night.
22 points up with 7 minutes to go.

Giants can certainly draft some good players. Especially since SOS left. Heaps of depth.

I wouldnt offer him much to stay.
If he wants out. Lets see what we get offered.
The Sydney tall that destroyed us in round 3 is better

CCJ shows top line quality, his problem will be that’s it’s hard to flourish when Lynch and Jack are also in the Forward line.
 
What I can't fathom is how other teams have just strong hands and hold marks even under direct attention. Our guys can't take a grab. Do they actually practice this at training or just do dribble kick practice for goals

So many issues hard to know where to start. But inevitably it’s only 3 or 4 and they usually rectify a bunch of others. For me they’re the following and sort of dovetail a bit:

1. Midfield, clearance, contested possession smashings. Opposition win and then get control of the ball too easily.

2. When the opposition get it, they pick us apart with a superior skill level, chipping around us. No defensive energy or pressure like we used to have.

3. Strategy wise we can’t a) stop the opposition high possession game and b) can’t move the ball forward with any clinical system either.

4. Skill level. Some of b) above is attributable to poor skill level. Also when teams roll back we’re not skilful enough to dissect it.

Grunt/pressure/strategy/skill level. First three can be rectified quicker than the last one.

124 marks in just over 3 quarters to the GWS. Wowee exciting stuff. Love watching a stack of uncontested marks.
