Assistant Coaches Have to Go

[Dave The Man]

Harvey is the 1st as been at Collingwood for Ages but where the Ground he coaches we suck there.

Sanderson can also go as he is our Forward and Ball Movement Coach and we have worse forward line in AFL and our ball Movement is a Joke.

No wonder our 2 best Assistants from Last Year Hocking and Longmire are gone and we gone back to Mediocre at Best

Longmire left for Freo but not keep Hocking at the Club was simply Idiotic

Everyone except the powers that be agree with you.

[BazBoy]

One positive has been Matty Boyd taking the defence coaching job.

Their defence under Longmuir was excellent and Boyd has kept it that way

[Presti35]

What's the go with Hocking? Will he be back at the club next year?

In the first half we played 5 forwards and 1 extra at the contest and still got slapped at ground ball gets and clearance.......blind Freddy could coach the midfield group better.

Harvey , where do u think the over handball comes from

[dalyc]

Another mid-game vent from DTM. Ho hum.

[LaurieHolden]

Yep, broken record. But can't say sitting there watching it last night I wasn't frustrated and getting pretty vocal.
Conditions were slippery, dew on the ground made the contest worse. Just made it hard to go forward with any conviction. I hope the dew doesn't become an issue in the GF.

Midfield is getting beaten as we don't have a big bodied mid that wins the ball. Put JDG in there and it changes. We don't have that luxury. Neither Sier nor Will's has come on sufficiently to mix it with the competitions best. Adams is a rover, not a ruck-rover.
The Suns won the clearances early from better postponing. They always had a spare player that Witts tapped to on their defensive side. Was infuriating before we closed that down.
Tyler Brown is still learning the craft. Still doesn't have a voice on the ground, doesn't demand the footy. Speaking of no voice, WHE!! I find him frustrating, just floats around bobbing up here and there but never any intensity about his game.

Forwards, well JDG has been out for 5 weeks. Delivery to Cox has been abominable let alone being out of the team in recent weeks and Stephenson is out of form. Mihocek shouldering much of the forward work then gets concussed.

Sidebottom and Stephenson back in makes us competitive within the 8, as for finals, hard to see us going deep as the side just doesn't have the connectivity over 4 quarters.

The issue o me appears more around our list/ drafting than coaching. Drafting a raw key forward and a developing big bodied mid should be a priority.

I believe that Sier can mix it with the competition's best but it's his fitness that holds him back. His first half of the WC GF was outstanding (wasn't it 18 possessions, keep that up and it's a Norm Smith) but he couldn't run the game out.

[23 YIPPEE!!!]

Yep.
