Re: Seb Ross
I like how people are saying he’s somehow developed into a better player because they have to admit he’s playing well. 2020 was a bit of a down year for him, although he tagged well at times 2016-2019 he was very good, as much as people with an agenda try to convince themselves otherwise Ain't that...

Re: The malignancy had 10 disposals!
OK, in recent weeks we have seen the worst of him (Note - he had plenty of fellow travellers). Tonight we saw what he can do. His gut running is amazing. He has the speed to run through the lines. He has the footskills to deliver perfect passes. He more than anyone else in our side has the ability ...

Re: Hickey, Bruce and Hind
Bruce played true to form when the heat was on last night - he shat the bed on a couple of marking attempts. Is a head case and the club did the right thing by off loading him. Bruce is a solid average AFL player, he gave us very good service for the price we paid for him. He's fit and durable and ...

Re: The decision to pick McCartin.
My favorite line in the article...........
But his dad was a good cross country runner
If his dad was a surgeon would you let him operate on you?
They didn’t want to have to back the truck up for a Key Forward so they did it for Hannebery & Hill instead.

Re: Out with Hill, Carlisle and Long
What happened to Long?
He was really showing some improvement in late 2019 and started 2020 in fine form.
He looks totally shot in confidence now.
Perhaps send him back forward and have him watch the hard tackling and forward pressure role Mc Donald Tippa (can't spell his name) plays.

To all the clubs out there .... Jack is BRILLIANT, so much potential. Certainly worth $700++ a year. Absolute bargain at that price. My sales job done. Reminds me a bit of Luke Ball.

Would prefer him to stay but it depends on compensation.

Re: Sandringham v Port Melbourne
Dunstan has to play next week or there is no selection integrity.
You have to promote those playing well and his game was dominant.
I’d say Ryder, Byrnes & Dunstan in and Connolly sub.
As long as ‘slips through his fingers’ is not selected.
