Do our team know what that means?
Only Richo King Foley & Tuck know what it means & Tuck works hard but turns it over to much!!
Conners Riewoldt & Casserley all must play next week.
 
Good thread Inspector. Jordan lewis attacked the ball with zeal 3 times within 30 seconds. Tambling walked and watched as a Hawthorn player had the ball not more than 3 metres away. Typical of the two teams attack on the ball and the player with the ball.

Unrewarded running is non existant at tigerland. You are right about the players you mention. Pity Tuck can't kick because he never stops trying.

Agree. Good post well said.
 
$29.42 per hour, time and half for Saturdays, double time for sundays, and 1.2 rate for working after 8pm. That's what we're giving Tambling.

Luckily, he's not working, so we don't even have to pay him that.

Does having only 38 on the list mean that we can sack Bling under the new WorkChoices laws? ;D

Yes we do
 
Think it was the 2nd quarter a ball was kicked into the Hawks 50 by Smith can't remember who marked it but Jackson was right there in front just our physical pressure is no existent the Hawks were always right on us. All their midfield work really hard for each other Lewis Mitchell Sewell Bateman Crawford just run & run we just look at them except for King & Foley!! Franklin works his butt of to present at half forward whenever we get the ball at 50 or in our defensive half there is no one up the ground working hard to create an option it's just crap then they go backwards sideways our kickouts would have to be the worst in the comp by far no system. Bling is supposed to have pace but you never see it he should be breaking at half forward backing his pace to make an option watch Bateman!!

Thats why Hawks are in the top 4.
Our work rate may have appeared ordinary today, but a resilient midfield will always prevail.
There have been many wonderful examples in the past 15 years - WCE, Carlton & Brisbane, just to name a few.
 
I hate to say it, but our list is the biggest bunch of front runners ive ever seen
 
We dont work hard enough . Its been our issue far too long. Terry's style, game plan(lack of) really hurts us.We dont have the skill nor the players for this to be executed.

The only way is to go back to basics, old fashion style, and just play man on man, nothing fancy, less possessions and just looking for the first, and right options.

Pre season this must be addressed. The players MUST PUT MILES IN THEIR LEGS

We are too lazy, lack talk and dont work hard enough for each other. There would only be about 3 or 4 players that work hard, have that work rate, that is just not good enough for an AFL side...
