Yes, I noticed this too ... still useful for historical performances, but not sure what we are going to use for next year!

Fanfooty lists a players role but I felt the player ratings just had a little bit more detail and it was all on one page for convenience.

Lewis Jetta appears he'll be back for WC on the weekend. Who do you think will make way for him? Tom Cole? LITS I'd appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks for the tip, that's probably the best alternative we'll have. I think a couple of people have raised issues with their use of the tag/tagged symbols, so we will need to take those wth a grain of salt. It's actually one of the main things I use Inside Football for, so it will be harder without it.

What the?? Freo and The Coasters ditching their derby trophy and medal? Couldn’t imagine this happening with the showdown, even when there isn’t a sponsor it keeps going!

Anyone else having problems with the SC site on the Player Research page... Can't seem to get the filters to work at all and can't sort the players how I would like.

Have tried multiple browsers and can't get it to work in any. It was working before lockout ended yesterday.

was just using it, no issues on my phone.

Have you changed platforms?

Sounds like Port are going to go after Channel 7 for their handling of the SPP case. I for one hope Elspeth Hussey gets sacked over it. Absolutely disgusting the way she went after Pep without knowing all the facts.

No haven't changed anything at all. This is on the desktop site. Don't use it on my phone.

Strange, Seems to be having issues on the iPad for me as well.

Have contacted them and will wait & see.

The reason i ask is because the usability of the filters (on phone) is so poor that i could see how some people may think they don’t work at all.

what happened BigRuss?

Have been having the same problem using IE, tried again using firefox and it was fine.

I think maybe try another browser LITS.

Looking at some of my players who have been underperforming, Lachie Neale, Dylan Shiel. Last week they both had approx 75% time on ground for scores of 100 and 78. I've been following Neales progress and am curious as to why he hasn't been able to produce scores like last year. Is he being tagged? Is he injured, hence managed tog. Or has his role changed where he comes on in small bursts, giving more game time to the kids to speed up Fremantle's rebuild. Brayshaw, Cerra, Banfield, Crowden etc. From a disposal efficiency perspective Neale has been spudding up with a few clangers.

Regarding Shiel, I think he's being managed due to injury. I wouldn't be surprised if GWS rest him as they've done with Kelly and Greene. Taking a conservative approach. I think they want their best players playing during finals, hence the spell.

I was following Hannebery from Sydney who was having his tog managed, unfortunately for him he's injured agajn.

Does tog become an indicator of factors such as injury, form, conditions, opponent much ups etc.

Can you tell why your players are under performing?

Just after people's thoughts.

Well that worked well, 112 for Shiel and 151 for Neale. Who should I discuss this week? Parker and Billings..lol

It occurred to me after the meet up on the weekend that SCS forum has some wonderful, brilliant and amazing people on the site and I'd like to ask for your help. I am a stage technician by trade, that is I have been building and operating theatre and TV sets for over 25 years. However my true passion (besides winning SC) is photography. If anyone on this forum can give me some work in any form whatsoever to do with me taking photos for you, please contact me. The best way I can show you some of my photos is if you visit my Facebook page, Gerard Stainsby and check out my photos there. I have obviously tailored my pics on FB for a more 'social' feel but you'll get a small sample. Any industrial, or corporate or event photography needed, I can do so please contact me on FB and I'll make it happen. Thanks guys.

For those who have & those who brought in Clayton Oliver & were dissapointed with his 89 on the weekend should be slightly concerned. 19 disposals 57.9% efficiency. 2 clangers. Watching the game I noticed that Nathan Jones hogged the tap outs from Gawn, this appears to be a premeditated plan in response to losing the clearances 12 to 4 from memory the previous week & media reports stating they had the best ruckman but couldn't win the clearances. So that was their focus for the bombers game. I'm hoping Oliver gets back into it as he was manned by Goddard at times & looked out of position & not that fiery bull he usually is.

In 2017 he never had less than 24 touches, this year he's had 2 shockers with 19 and 20 disposal games out of 6.
Playing the Saints this week, fingers crossed!!

I traded him in over the weekend, and yes slightly disappointed with the poor score. However, I'm backing him to lift his numbers, was at the game on Sunday and I'm not sure the short turnaround did him any favours. Didn't really push himself too much, seemed a little weathered and with the game all but over didn't overexert himself on the contest. With a longer break between games I'm hoping he's freshened up.

Good call, I forgot to factor in the short turnaround between games. I also forgot to mention Brayshaw was used in the middle too for 6 clearances. I think they've played him either back or forward previously. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I love reading these types of stories - past players, talking through rose coloured glasses, telling everyone how stuffed the game is, all the coaches fault for making a defensive based game, blah blah blah
