Non-Richmond games 2010

Carlton miles off. Massive problems for them as blokes like Gibbs and Murphy are not hitting the heights hoped of them. Judd was ordinary too.

This might be why Essendum are in such a bad state

Most of them struggle to come up with 3 players that need to be delisted!! 

I can think of 15.

They're going through the Richmond-like 'the players are all guns, they just need a good coach' delusions at the moment.

The irony is they are blaming Knights for turning them into a 'rabble like Richmond'.

This is all too funny.

Josh Kennedy would be handy now for them. They got rid of the wrong forward at the time and then had to let Fev anyway. Add giving up pick 11 for McLean and it's a massive stuff up.


They just showed the stats from the Hawthorn vs Brisbane game on OWAAT. 64-25 inside 50s and Brisbane has Fev and Brown playing as tall targets up forward to kick to. That unbelievably pathetic!  . Voss looks like joining the 'champion player; dud coach' category.

lol - The Lions are having a full review.... and it's being led by Voss!! The Lions are a rabble!!

LIONS chairman Tony Kelly has ordered a full review of Brisbane's football operations but says coach Michael Voss is exempt from scrutiny and would head the investigation.

Kelly has ruled out recruiting a former senior coach or football administrator to an advisory role in the football department saying such a move could be viewed as undermining Voss.

Can Voss do no harm. I would think abit of presure on Voss for making these drafts would put him in a position of having to applying more heat onto the players he drafted. Which are way under performing for the club.

Voss has done a Spud 2001. Topped up with fringe recycled duds from other clubs thinking they weren't that far off a flag after making the finals last year while ignoring the fact they got absolutely flogged by the best sides and deep down were miles away. It's going to be a number of painful years for Lions supporters while they rebuild from basically scratch once Fev, Brown, Black, Power all go. If I was the AFL I'd be ticked off as well with Voss' recruiting given the AFL most likely now will have both Qld clubs struggling at the bottom of the ladder over the next few years which doesn't help promote the game nor attract crowds up there.

I know we benefitted from it against Freo but spot the overkill interchange rule  .

Rioli kicked what would've been the sealer too. Very lucky Sainters. Hawthorn will be the dark horse in the finals even if they finish 6th.

Apart from the controversy with the interchage rule last night was a great game. A draw was actually a fair result in the end. Dopey Wade Skipper got lost and let McEvoy contest the ruck alone and kick the leveler. Poor defence by the Hawks anyway not having players goal side.

Thought Hawks were the better side, personally.

You saw with the Saints that with Dal Santo in and out of the game, when the onus is on the likes of Jones and Gram to create something they don't really have the same skills. Hayes, Dal Santo and Goddard as quarterback are everything for them.

Bombers have knocked off the Roos by 3 points. I tipped them too. Not sure why as I don't think much of the Dons as a side at all but just had a feeling the Bombers might catch North who are an average side as well with their speed at Etihad.

Nice tank after half-time by the Eagles too  . Gives the Blues a game and big % (effectively 2 game) gap over the Roos. Only the Crows now are a threat to Carlton of the sides outside the Eight.

[the_boy_jake]

It was quite bizarre watching the Eagles.

Its hard to say they are tanking because the errors that cost them the win IMHO were strange individual decisions in and around the attacking 50 rather than structural problems that Worsfold could control. So he either has 22 players not trying to score and happy to tank or they are just a very ordinary bunch of blokes who can't really be bothered.

Needs to be noted down by the interchange steward and the club fined during the week.

Final 8 sewned up for mine even with Carlton having a tough run home in the last 5 rounds and Sydney losing. North and the Crows both dropped their chance against ordinary competition. North effectively now 2 games out and the Crows 3 games out both due to poor percentage.
