Although we weren't good, we did enough to win.

But the umpires wanted it more for Port.

The only thing I can think of is that at the moment he still is a bit skinny for AFL level, sort of like Winmar over the past couple of years. Just needs to hit the weights hard as I think he's only about 75kg?

Couldn't have been too bad if we comprehensively won the contested possessions and clearances in both games.
For a ruckman that's only about 22, he's doing a brilliant job.

I'm thinking that Cripps and Simpkin will step up immensely!

Are the Youth 16 memberships also $95 like the Youth 11 ones?
It doesn't have the price on there :/

Watters was looking to draft the "best available" and not always the players we so much need. Maybe Ross is for the long term as a replacement for Hayes?

Wikipedia have already updated him to a St Kilda player.
Very interesting call, but I'm happy with it

It's not the actual hand, just 2 metacarpals. So it shouldn't be a too long a stint away from ball-related stuff.

Very poor article.
Sees that there has been nothing but positive media news for us recently so decides to have a dig at us.

Play the kids that are ready and want to have a crack, change up the game plan for a more attacking style and give the fans something to be really excited about beyond 2012

How the umpires been tonight for Sydney?
How many goals has O'Keefe gotten from free kicks?

Noticed how he avoided countless questions about loyalty.
Sounded very smug.

True, but all would be irrelevant and forgotten if we ended up with a flag. Though unlikely in the short term.
One thing he has over Lyin', certainly knows how to draft and develop the young kids very well.

Ok no criticism here because I myself am VERY doubtful on it. :? But what about picking him up as our next coach? No, he doesn't exactly have a great win/loss record (30 wins 45 losses). But there is upside to him. Fremantle ended up having over 18 injuries in there squad at one point this season, i...

We delisted McQualter and Eddy, and they are still 10x better players than Nathan Ablett. We have much better forward line prospects than him. Eg. Siposs, Walsh, W Johnson.

He's too lazy and doesn't want any bit of it at the AFL standard. Would be a terrible decision.

In the recent game against the filth, didn't he lay a big hit on didak?
If he can replicate that it would be great.

I actually quite like Ports song and Gold Coasts they are sort of similar in some bits i reckon.
Port - "We'll never stop, stop, stop till we are top, top, top"
GC - "Fight, fight, fight till we hold up the cup, run, run, run all the way."

cheers saintbrat

oh not to worry a link just came up on the afl website. apologies to anyone. :oops: http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/111037/default.aspx talking about how we need to be alot hungrier and harder at the footy. http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/110957/defaul...

just keen on what he had to say there as i missed it and cant find a link on there website to it
so could anyone that heard it fill me in?
did he say anything about playing young players and who is close to breaking through in the next few weeks? or about kozzie and schneider.
thanks

they played the suns. any team could have looked like a top quality side against them tonight it was clearly men against boys. i think there list is very strong and will deliver them a premiership soon enough, but when we are in form. our list still strikes up better IMO.

Some Richmond fan had his seat double booked in m55 next to me.
Got kicked out to somewhere else..

Great idea IMO!
