Bye

[Cicjose]

CAN WE WIN AFTER THE BYE WHEN SO MANY TEAMS HAVE NOT? WHERE WILL THE HOLES BE IN THE TEAM THAT NEED PLUGGING TO GET THE JOB DONE OVER RICHMOND? STAY TUNED TO FIND THE RESULTS.

Your defense seems to be standing up OK. How are you off for goal kickers, do you have a good spread?

[valkorum]

Our goal kicking has a good spread

Keplar - 11
Mayne - 8
Balla - 7
Mundy - 6
Hill and a host of others on 5

What is scary is that Pav is on 1

[Cicjose]

How good are Richmond's defenders cause would it be worth sending Pavlich to FF for the whole game to stretch their defence???

Harvey wont do that.  Keplar is tall (200ish), Mayne is taller than you think (around 190ish), Sandi rotates forward when needs a break, McPhee is 190ish as well, even DeBoer is around 190ish

We have recruited a lot of players in the 180cm - 190cm height range so we can play pretty much anyone anywhere and not be under/over sized.

Ok then where across the ground is our weakness

Defence... It's obvious that Mcpharlin will go to Riewoldt and we will probably be double teaming him

Nahas will probably get a tag if he goes through the middle

Is it worth having Ballantyne tag Deledio?

[valkorum]

I dont think it's obvious that McPharlin (Elvis) will go to JRoo - I think Grover will go to JRoo cos he normally plays out of FF and Grover plays the FB.  Elvis plays CHB but there will be times when he will be playing on JRoo

IMO Martin is the one that needs a tag as he is more damaging than Nahas.  Maybe DeBoer or JVB will run with Martin and I would like to see Hill and Nahas match up against each other with Cotchin/Foley to match against Pav/Mundy

Balla wont tag Dlids as Balla is too dangerous of a forward to play a negating role.  If Dlids goes forward then prob Broughton or Duffman will take him, if he goes to the backline then Crowley will most likely get the job.

[Cicjose]

Dont forget tho that Mcpharlin is more nimble than Grover and if Grover gets caught behind Riewoldt will win 9 out of 10 contests

Can we win after the bye when so many teams have not. and where will the holes be in the team that need plugging to get the job done over Richmond?

Apparently not...

[valkorum]

It wasnt a good day :(

[Bluke]

The Eagles won after the bye... what is this hoodoo you all speak of?

[The Silent Partner]

I knew this was a danger game the tigers play the G well and well we just dont play there enough hopefully we will bounce back next week otherwise the power looms as a danger game

[valkorum]

We will bounce back against the Eagles

[Barlow 21]

We definetly will bounce back. :)
