Coburg vs Box Hill - Sunday June 25

[Moi]

Not happy either, X.  Want him to succeed just as much as you do.
Glad he volunteered to play in the seconds - that is a good attitude at least
Maybe he isn't motivated to play - he doesn't have to be, he gets picked generally every week regardless of how he plays
Hopefully he can turn it all around for the benefit of all

He needs to remain at Coburg until he can do the running and getting to contests he needs to do. Oddly, for the role he needs to play, once he can consistently perform those things at VFL level over a few weeks where the standard/skill level is lower and hence the movement of the footy less reliable then he should be able to do them at AFL level. For Krakouer it's a question of getting to where the footy is and getting hands on it rather than needing to learn what to do with it once he has possession.

[Mr Magic]

Goal Gas. He can't field kick but he's an awesome set shot goalkicker.

Coburg  14.16-100
Box Hill   7.11-53

Krakouer just 10 possies. David King said Krak hasn't shown enough. He needs to get to contests and stoppages (Krakouer was walking in the middle of the ground away from the ball when King said this).

this maybe the end of krak.  some ppl will be very happy

That'll be me, whilst it's not enjoyable to see somebody fail, I can't wait to see the end of this slow, inconsistant underachiever.

No tears from me, he's had a gazillion opportunites to cement his place.
Give a game to someone in the senior's who might actually grab their chance and really benefit the RFC.

[Mr Magic]

If people aren't convinced that Schulz is a natural FF after 16 goals in three weeks then they never will be.
He's got all the weapons. Great leap, good lead, nice kicking action....

If he lines up on Anthony Rocca at CHB next week, I'll, I'll......I don't know what I'll do.

Krakouer is headed to North Melbourne I reckon and maybe hes not the only one.

David King summary:

McGuane - good, honest effort today particularly in the first half. Sounded as though he rucked today.

Yeah played in the ruck a bit today - alternating with Rob Young. He really seemed to enjoy having the licence to run

Limbach - didn't get enough of it today. Probably didn't work hard enough as he should have.

Agree - thought a few times he was lacking in the 2nd effort department when we needed defensive pressure in the F50

Hartigan - new role HFF. Better games for the year.

Disposal still letting him down

Humm - Consistent at VFL level. Right at home if he got a game next week.

Agree with the first bit but I must say I got frustrated with his decision making at times - when he needed to move it quickly he was too slow and then when he needed to take some time for an option he just blazed away

Schulz - obvious one you'd love in the team next week. Worked very hard today running back towards the goals and marking.

The RFC are playing Sunday Jay at the MCG

Gaspar - held his own in defence but let himself down with his kicking.

Got better as the game went on

Howat - Best with Schulz. Kicking skills were a weapon today.

Disposal was a lot better today - used it very well

White - works so hard (probably didn't get as much of it as in previous weeks) but good.

IMHO should come in for Cogs without hesitation.

Rodan - worked hard defensively but probably didn't get reward for his efforts today. Another who puts himself up for selection.

Totally agree - also showed very good leadership on the field very vocal

JON - needs to learn when to put it all together. Wait 18 months away for him.

Was good in the 2nd and then spent most of the 3rd on the pine.  But I agree with Kingy's comments

Krakouer - He asked to play today so attitude good. Didn't work hard enough though.

Thought his 2nd half was much better than the 1st- - worked harder and it showed.

Looked very different today with the socks up

thats fine, if he is not up to it 4 those reasons, the tigers should get rid of him, but he should not be alone, because tiv, hall, harts are in the same boat

A stint in the seconds might do him a world of good.  I hope so, because i think he doesn't have too many get out of jail cards free.
Who is Krak's mentor if anyone knows?

It's obvious he has a bit of talent.  Wouild really like to see how much talent if he consistently applied himself.  Maybe one we'll never ever know.
