Thread Title: How do we fix the forward line?

Fixed.

[HowManyGoal]

I say we go back to playing 7 rucks.

Now that the forward line’s fixed, I’m going hijack this now defunct thread to post a really dumb thing I haven’t been able to get out of my head since I heard Green referred to as “Corgi”. Sorry in advance.

(welsh corgi, scottish deerhound, irish setter, italian greyhound, staffie, great dane).

I’m pretty sure Daniher owns a deerhound, or similar breed.

Rd 9

Daniher 26 goals on track for 60 (already eclipsed Monfries 24 goal season in 2010)
Fantasia 22 goals on track for 40-50+
Hooker 16 Goals
Tippa 13 goals

all these guys look going 20+ goals pretty early.

then potentially add Green (8) who averages 1.1 goals a game.
And if stewart plays out the year then he sould get up there as well.
things are looking good.

If theres any thing that needs fixing its around Green.

Either fix up his chest marks so he can kick 4 goals a game, or stop playing him as a goal square forward against an opposition tall.

Yeh. I know he can take speccies 1 ft off the ground

Change thread title to “How do we not fk up the forward line?”

Hilarious that this thread was started last year when we were on a hiding to nothing. Our forward line is fine.

STILL FINE,

It reads like its round 23

On the wing.

More inside 50’s will help repair the forward line.

Not needed: Joe and Walla kick em from OUTSIDE 50

Woosha’s first day at the club as head coach, talking to Dodorro.

Woosha: hey, Adrian I like the look of this list of players. But who are our small forwards?

Doddoro: ummm. what?

Woosha: well small forwards are an integral part of the game. They provide speed, forward pressure, goals, breaking the lines, and crumbing.

Doddoro: well we don’t really think small forwards serve a purpose. It’s just a position to rest our midfielders. Or get game time into our young players who we think could play midfield in the future.

Woosha: so we don’t have one?

Doddoro: well we have a young bloke Fantasia. Who we think will become a genuine wing/hbf who has played his junior footy up forward.

Woosha: no one else?

Doddoro: We’ve got a bloke in the VFL, who the supporters have been pestering me about for years. It p*ss me off, I get hounded every time I do my groceries. We could grab him as a rookie, just as long as the Bulldogs don’t get him first.

Woosha: so that’s it? And you wonder why you haven’t been able to score goals for the last 6 years…
