We haven't had a multi-pronged KP team since Ottens, and that was nearly 20 years ago.

Our depth is fine Aegean. Another key forward, a running half back.
But all teams have wish lists.
Baron Samedi said:
Don't reckon Adelaide are a better side?
Wins are down to good depth, loss is down to Coach. Like it both ways I guess.
Baron Samedi said:
Do you really think our depth is fine?
We have one AFL standard key forward, one AFL standard ruckman and zero young midfielders plying their wares in the twos.
In the most important areas we are sorely lacking in depth.
tigersnake said:
Seriously?
You don't reckon Hardwick's fingerprints are all over selection and tactics against Adelaide?
Use your noggin. Take into account what we've seen over seven years. The trends and the mountain of available evidence.
Don't just be a cheerleading devils advocate, though I know you like that. All good.
Hard to argue against any of what Baron is saying.
Our tactics and team selection cost us yesterday. It went against everything we have done to date.
The Morris inclusion says it all.

Yes seriously, you reckon Adelaide are a better side?
you're a strange man Baz.

Pretty easy I reckon. You really reckon no Morris and Elton/ Chol/ Soldo in gets a different result?

Not changing our winning structure would've helped a lot.
What is so difficult for you to comprehend?
Exactly.Baron Samedi said:
Hardwick is mr negative.
Morris to negate in the forward line?
It's never worked before.
Why change a wining formula?
Hardwick can't help himself.
Please no more.
No more.
Pay him out.

Handbrake's excited chatter throughout last week left us with no illusions as to who was behind Sunday's train wreck.
Comprenhend fine Baz, so we still lose? See, to me, that isn't 'helping a lot'. Its damage control. Helping a lot is getting a win.
Sorry fellas, no Morris and a fit and firing Griff, which is moot of course, and maybe we get done by 5 goals. I just don't buy the LEVEL of angst, sure we shouldn't have picked Morris, and sure we could have played Elton, (personally I think he's struggled against average sides and would have been hopless against a good side, its a perfectly justifyable decision not to play him). Some are carrying on as if a couple of selections have destroyed our season. Just OTT.

Who said we would've won and who said the season is gone?
That is your usual angst at PRE not being a positive, rainbow-happy, affirming place, not anyone else's.
Baron Samedi said:
nah nah, some people are crapping on and huffing and puffing as if all is lost. I do get annoyed with people lack of grasp of context and perspective Baz, I admit it. We go on a losing run against average sides, go to town. We only win another couple of games this year and we'll all be going crazy.
Come on TS. Morris aside he completely stuffed up a structure that was working so well over the last 5 weeks.tigersnake said:
Not only does Eltons omission rob our forward line but it was detrimental to our rucks. Seeing Grigg go up as our second ruck was comical. Lamb to the slaughter. And what benefit does that provide to our mids?
And what about Nankervis? Adelaide worked him over and destroyed him. His frustration no doubt felt when he elbowed the Adelaide player.
Ellis on Lynch. One must shake their head.
