Sounds like GWS are getting desperate if they are willing to rush back players underdone.


GWS will consider hatching a bold plan to rush midfield gamebreaker Stephen Conig­lio straight back into its side to face Richmond, despite him playing only three hours of football in the past 17 weeks.

The Giants are set to give star forward Jeremy Cameron until the 11th hour to prove his fitness after he missed the Swans encounter with a hamstring injury.

Sounds about right.

After that pisspoor effort against the saints our % is shot, so 13 games is needed for finals. This means 3 more wins from GWS, GC, Geel, Haw, Freo away and the Saints.

Honestly, we'll be pinching wins to make the finals IMO.

The Richmond way would be to start the season with 5 straight  victories and end the season with 5 consecutive defeats.

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

I hope we haven't reverted back to that crappy game plan of last year over position short kicks etc and not the run and carry of this season and tackling.Would be a huge mistake that's our best footy and the way to win against gws.Seen signs of that crap in 2016 last few games.

Yes me too.
How hard is it to continue to play a game style that won us games?? Are they stupid??
Just run, work hard, take the game on and tackle and you will win games. Pretty simple really.

It's the culture at the club of going defensive as the finish line approaches that has caused us most problems winning close games, I hope it doesn't apply to the whole season, 5 straight wins is like being up by 6 goals at half time and still losing which we all know we are so good at.
