Articles: Corletto, plus Smyth comments on game

3 weeks ago I was on the replace Chappell band wagon. 3 weeks ago is the timing of the last home game. The way he is playing now, he has made a highly measurable improvement. If the measure of improvement in the next 3 weeks equals that of the last, then he is a quality import. On the other hand, this give Ballinger the ball nonsense is the same nonsense doing the rounds last season with Horvath. If these players are not getting the ball, its because they are not worthy of the ball. I was never impressed with Horvath last season, I am not impressed with Ballinger this season. We never had a problem with giving Farley or Rychart the ball because these players were consistent in doing something with it. It was not unusual for either players to come away with a 30 or 40 point game. If Horvath or Ballinger proved they could have a 30 or 40 point game, I doubt they would have been denied the ball.

One of the important ingredients to being a top 4 team is little change to your core group from one season to another. Adelaide has not had this for 2 seasons now. We were much better 2 seasons ago because the group had been together for several years. We were still not the best because the group at the time was young and mostly still developing. I don't know why people have a problem with a 6-8 week jelling period when comparing to top teams that have been together for years. If the team we have now is the right one and the coach gets the best out of them, we may not be a force this season but perhaps the next. I would go as far as to say that a whole season is not unreasonable for a team to jell.

Dana, I think we all love the 6'ers and we all want them to succeed, but how long do we have to put up with the same results, and when will it change.

The natives are getting restless, the drums are beating, and if things don't change really quickly (in which I hope they do, but doubt) Flipint Phil is going to have to go.

Can't get worse Dana.
