Another terrible game. Can't even blame injuries.

Even Dusty was butchering the ball. Just not there at the moment.

@mariner4life said in AFL 2020: Ah. Behinds. I see. You guys kicked a few. Traditionally it's us who kick too many behinds. So who do we fire? Coach or players? We'll buy Tex Walker for a couple of 2nd rounders Who?

@barbarian said in AFL 2020: Queensland have put in some pretty intense quarantine rules for Victorian sporting teams. Going to throw a major spanner in the AFL works. I reckon they'd be seriously considering packing the whole circus up and going to WA for a month or so. But not without quarantining when they get to WA...

But not without quarantining when they get to WA... difference being, they can play each other while in quarantine

So, State of the Game comes up again. This time Clarko says it's shit (which i think is a sneaky way to get more free kicks for Hawthorn). Commentators are all in on it. And i have a lot of sympathy. The biggest take from me is, the AFL need to stop asking coaches their opinions. Coaches want to win, they couldn't give a fuck about how it looks. Modern coaching is the bane of all football codes. There is something pretty wrong with the game though. It started with Roosy at @Kiwiwomble 's mob. And it's been downhill ever since. Ross Lyon took up the mantle. And then Richmond. It's all risk free football and pressure. I don't know how to change it, because coaches will just find a way to get control back no matter what.

I'm still learning so forgive my ignorance on Roosy, i can see why we currently avoid risks...they rarely pay off for us!

Basically Paul Roos when coaching the Swans flooded the backline and played defensively. It killed the spectacle. Lyon took an attacking Saints side and turned them into a boring defensive side.
