I think they might try Stocker in a different role, leaving Plowman to rotate through the backline. Stocker might get a run on the ball and a bit of time up forward to add defensive pressure, leaving Ed Curnow to do a shutdown role.

The team was really bad but he was putrid.
Disposal is better in under 12s.
This guy has played a handful of poor - average games to start his career, However I’m not writing him off rather observing that his form has not been anywhere near enough to suggest he should have held his spot.
Hope he rips it up for a month in the 2s and can come back when he forces his way back....needs to work hard on disposal while in the seconds.
But yes, Setters needs some time in the VFL - and in the weights room bulking up.

THe magical numbers you throw around each week are chosen because the 2 weeks before that, were wins.....but that hurts the argument so they are conveniently left out.
If we do win the next 2, then it'd be 8 wins from 45.
We've 1424 from out last 2500. What's your point
Right now it's 4 from from the last 41. You can go 3 from 31, 11 of those losses by 50pts or more, 1 in 2, if your want if you want to take it from the start on last year, or even 1 from 12. Whatever it is, it's as bloody horrible as it gets.
I think for the coach' sake it's imperative we win. Close, honorable losses don't cut it against St.Kilda. Not 4th year into a rebuild, especially when you are already 1-8.

Just felt our backline is tall enough. If you're too tall one invariably struggles as he don't know his role. Happened to Weitering last year. People bagged the f out of him last year. get's a proper role that suits and he's a different player. Could be part of Charlie's issues this year too. Could be a lack of continuity too with injuries. Dunno.

WOW! Now that's impressive. I'll be getting finals tickets tomorrow!
Holy mackerel. When we celebrate and are grateful for the potential of 8 from 45... sheesh, how far have we fallen. There'll be dancing in the streets when we win more than 4 games in a season.

If you've read any of my posts recently you'd be aware that i've been mocking Jim for repeatedly using those numbers...in every post.
You should also be aware that i don't think the sheer win/losses stat is a fair indicator on where we are now, compared to years prior.

If you re read those figures before you posted them, you wouldn’t bother
Seriously dumb argument

Point is, it could be 0 from 45 and it doesn't change my opinion.
