Match Report
Ace reporter Darren is on leave this week so unfortunately there is no report from the Queens Birthday match.

Media update
Hope you caught Dean Bailey “On the Couch” earlier this week. After a “tough day at the office” Bailey was clear and direct and amongst many interesting points here are some of his comments:

the inconsistency in the contested possession count from week to week is a major frustration
the club has recruited for kicking skills and emphasised kicking the ball over the past two to three years
they have been working on “the press” for over a year and it is still a work in progress
the lack of games and experience leads to the current weekly patience/impatience cycle
the importance of backmen playing in front of their opponents
St Kilda, Geelong and Collingwood all took six to eight years to build to a Grand Final / Premiership
