I don't think Mark From Melbourne Williams is up to it, forward line has gone down hill since Danny Daly moved lines and he took over. Move him on at the end of the year and get Michael O'Laughlin.

You should be knighted!!!

SPOT ON!!!

Mark Williams has a horrible structure and seems as if the forwards need to work twice as hard for anything!

Its a culture thing. He tanks without even realising he is doing it.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Still frustratingly an issue. Not so much the goalkicking today with 13.7 (although we still missed gettable shots from 40-50m out) but the decision making and last kick from 70m out inside 50 is still stuffing us up.

Give Jack more space, clear that over crowded fwd line - just not working and leaves us exposed on the rebound.

Anyone else think it looked better in first half than it has in a long time? Surprise surprise only 2 KPF's up there. Soon as Edwards came on we looked poo again.

Saw Chaplin for the first time and he fills me with a lot of confidence for the defence especially with the fact that Grimey is coming back soon.  :pray

So I don't feel the need to have the big boy Griffiths down there.
Put him at CHF and let him crash some packs and take some grabs. He's a young, fit giant that will learn the position in time and he's a great kick of the footy. Very accurate kick for such a big boy.
If he's taking marks anywhere on the forward 50 clubs will have to show him respect because everyone knows he can roost the ball over 60 meters.
That will definately open up the forward 50 then for Jacky boy to work his magic and he wouldn't get double teamed as he is now.
I'm definitely of the camp of Griffiths to CHF.

The club that keeps giving.
