Watching the Dogs vs Roos you see how football dumb our list is. Little things like diving on the ball but doing it in a way that doesn't attract a holding the ball free everytime. Getting swung by the shirt near the boundary so just holding back on the kick so it doesn't go out on the full. One or two at the most going to tackle a player and having players waiting for the ball over the top. Why don't we seem to have many players on our list who have a football brains?
Very rarely either side just kicks it long down the line to a contest. They are all just moving to create an option other than that long kick to a contest.

True but when they have no choice they still challenge for the ball and seem to have players at the base of every pack. That is purely by gut running to ensure a contest. We on the other hand either meekly lose a one on one marking contest or the ball hits the ground with no Tiger in sight. As has been said it's like watching a different game when watching other teams, we are so far off the pace it's not funny.

They have both gone past us
Understatement of the century!
It's like watching a different sport.
Same ball, same shape ground, same scoring system, but just a different game entirely.
The dogs should be in front.
Fu)( I hate north!
Hate Norf. They've done everything better than us including money ball, getting players that actually contribute by making the team better. Have recruited better than us during compromised drafts. Their older players are killing it unlike our older players, they also have depth unlike us and a quality ruckmanthat competes all over the ground.
They are coached well too as Scott clearly out coaches Dumma every time, whilst coaching the team to its strengths.
Yes bloody hate Norf! 
The club that keeps giving.

Who on our current list do you think could become our next Alex Rance of Jack Riewoldt?
(A grade superstar)
I'm going to say Callum Moore. I haven't seen much of him but he definitely has something about him. Anyone else agree?

Rance and jack are top shelf

We don't have replacements for them...
Then he grabbed two chopsticks and stuck them in his mouth , pretending to be a walrus

You don't think Rioli COULD get to his uncles level?? A grader star.
You don't think C. Moore after kicking 4 goals in his 4th game of VFL footy COULD become our next Jack?
You don't think Vlastuin COULD turn into the next star midfielder?
