In Bali?

This keep the coach away from the group pre season could be the gift that keeps on giving year on year.

Those man hugs are pretty important in consolidating the game plan the players have been perfecting.

Cmon Lamb chops...

Given the season ended 3.5 months ago and we have a recruiting department etc etc.... What do you think the coaches have been working on the last 3 months...

As said in the book and throughout the season he needed to trust his assistants more, he is doing that, yet still heckled...

The game plan is locked and loaded and the few tweaks they are making the assistants are communicating it to players, its not make it up over the couple of weeks Dimma is away...

I doubt he's read the book, either that or he's just trolling, cause no-one who has read the book would come away and still make comments like that seriously.

Tigers coach gotta a lot of work to do again this season as Tigers list rated ninth by afl.com. Three elite Dusty , Rancher & Sheds. Cotch only above average so you have to wonder what the compiler drinks & who he votes for.
Same mob rated them 12th last year and they consistently assess Collingwood's midfield as top 3. Its not all about possessions in the actual game.

Not afl.com, Champion Data.

Champion Data under licence from the AFL collect all data from AFL games. That data is the property of the AFL who then distribute such data through afl.com as they seem fit .

There are three types of lies in life -
[list type=decimal]
[*]White Lies
[*]Black Lies
[*]Statistics
[/list]
Footy is not all about stats. They can be an indication but they are not the be all and end all.

How do you measure the fanatical passion to get the hard ball like Captain Cotchin does? How do you measure the fanatical passion to position yourself to snuff out opposition passages of play like Rance, Grimes and Astbury do? (9 times out of 10 only one of them is needed but the other two are still in their right positions). How do you measure instinct to move to the right position on the field to create an option for your teammate who may use another option 7 times out of 10? But you're still there in that position knowing there will come a passage of play that he will use you. How do you measure the ferocity of two and three Tiger players attacking the opposition player in control of the ball? How do you measure the sheer fanatical will to not let your teammates down?

These non-numerically registered fanatically passionate acts are part of the ingredients to winning our 2017 flag. These in my opinion are a mindset - and mindsets are not numerically accountable.

Champion data does not tell half of the real story!
 
One would expect Sheds as an elite gun player would poll Brownlow votes yet in 2017 he did not poll one single vote. Dusty hogged the votes with 36. Cotch & Rance picked up 8 each. Grigg 7 Jack 6 Prestia & Caddy 5 Lambert & Nankervis 2 with Brandy Ellis rounding out the list with 1. Sheds also was not in the top 10 in the Jack Dyer 2017 Medal count so for him to be rated elite by Champion Data indicates that the AFL are being diddled by them.

Good point I would suggest.

Hey when you're on a good thing..... stick to it!

But only you think it's a good thing ... the rest of us (or most) just find it boring, discredited tripe.

But it's the 'world according to Lambchops.' Why would he read the book if it's not all about his own infallible opinions? He doesn't need to and can't learn anything he doesn't already know you see.

Lol, get a life mate :hihi

But they are very distinguishable ... maybe except for you. But tell me, why does anyone who doesn't share your views have no life? Such logic escapes us.

Baron's logic does not escape me where as yours is somewhat ennui.
 
After watching Australian cricket ODI side coach /selectors not having a clue in selecting Cameron White suggest they give Bernie a ring for something to do over summer.
