    It’s time to unleash HHK! Give Heeney a rest for a couple of weeks- no point looking backwards Mal.

      No point looking backwards? How did you pass your driving test?

        HHK had a three disposal game against Casey in the VFL. Hardly bashing the door down.

            As long as there is no change to the head coach.

              Why? Seems like the biggest issue we have....

              17 other clubs are hoping we keep longmire in charge... we need a new message to the players.....

              It's a horrible thing to say, but like bud, longmire is done...

                15 of those clubs would hire him in a heartbeat.
                Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

                  How is Longmire responsible for all of the injuries to the key personel. If he had the full list playing and was still getting these current results then I would agree your assessment of Longmire.

                        McAndrew would’ve been smashed too. We have no saviours hiding in the twos.

                          Given the strength of Freo”s rucks, it would have been the last game to play McAndrew. His confidence would have been demolished.

                            Has Don Pyke taken a back seat?

                            I do think Longmire is a great coach in that he loves his players and gets the most out of them in terms of effort each week. But he's no tactician. We looked best when Don Pyke first came in and helped switch up our style to be very attacking and actually make tactical changes from Qtr to Qtr, which isn't just send a man behind the ball in the last 5 minutes of a Qtr.

                            Most footage of the coaches box this year seems to focus on Cox and Longmire - is Pyke not challenging Longmire/as actively involved as he used to be?

                              Good question, if players can go into their shells, why not an assistant coach?

                                We have an undermanned team and Carlton will come at us with all guns blazing. Let’s see what Horse and Co come up with!

                                2 extra players down back????
                                Rocket anyone?
