Round 15 Post Game Thread - Blues v Tigers

[Brettie]

If Geelong are hellbent on a bloke who seriously, has played about 5 good games of footy in the past 2 years, then they're welcome to him.

The Cats will play him in the backline and he'll become a star.

Yep.

..he had a stinker from the small amount of the game I saw. That one out in the 50 is bread and butter for good forwards.

But I still reckon the reason he's up there is because he's the only one clever enough to play KPF and organise the forwards.

Our options are Cas one out or Watson or running Krooz and Cas through there. Big ask.

A seriously fair weather supporter response to a loss. "A bigger pack of softcox"...great manner in which to categorize the young players trying to find their way such as Fields and Holman.  Murphy, Simpson, Kreuzer and Gibbs also could question their new found labels under your categorization. Richmond like it or not have taken the next step but we are not too far away if we can tweek our list correctly in the next draft period

This attitude is what has got us to this position. People constantly making excuses for our players. No more! Fu(k 'em! How about we put pressure on them to perform, instead of making excuses as to why they didn't.

We've got a strong marking key position forward.
In a contest chances are he'll either mark it or it will go to ground
We rest our rucks up there from time to time.
That's enough talls...but let's not rely on them to kick goals.

Put Henderson back and stack the forward line with medium/ smalls....a mosquito fleet.
Put Yarran there for a start.

Lod's I agree with you to a point.

But I hope they SEN put up the Barker interview this morning. He goes into a bit of detail of how they are trying to get the forwards to work and how, at the moment, they (and others) are just not getting the system right.

I reckon he's keeping Henderson there not just for his smarts but because they want the system working with the people they have been working with.

Hendo looked a different player when he went down back for the last 15 minutes last night. I Just don't think he can handle the attention that comes with playing as a key forward. Down back he doesn't get that and tends to play a whole lot better. For us he's either a defender or trade bait.

[Jofo]

Just watched the Northern Blues game. Boy, do we have some dumb footballers on our list. Foster, Jones and Watson are three.

It's not even that he's a little bit better, he was a general back there in 2013.

Could relate to the poor development. ....the board is not sinking much resources into the reserves

Been our problem for decades
