Yes

One of the original posters from when I first found this place nearly 20 years ago. Cheers Noddy, R.I.P. mate.

I wouldn't be too sure about Frawley and McKernan... Ratts gets very excited every time he mentions them and can't wait until they return!

Didn't King have 4 the other week? So I'll go with him.

There's only one.

There will only ever be one.

How the hell are they fitting everyone of their stars in the salary cap?

I doubt he holds any credibility in the industry. He did well getting us back to Moorabbin, but his handling of personnel in the Football Dept has been atrocious, costing the club millions and taking our onfield progress and list management back into the 'dark ages'. The first sentence is opinion. ...

We should be doing everything we can to keep and hopefully our next coach and his assistants will have the skills to develop talent and systems/structures/ball movement strategies/team rules to enable a game style that win footy matches. We absolutely can NOT sell the farm to keep Billings. He's no...

If a bloke had his feet in the oven, and his head in the fridge, 'on average' he's feeling OK. Hehe, that's a good one. I've said it before, there's a difference between kicking to a 50/50 and losing that contest, and under no pressure kicking a grubber straight to the opposition where we can't con...

Future does not look bright for Oscar Clavarino if he can still be omitted when we're struggling to field a team this weekend Through no fault of his own. Club not giving him a decent crack. Shown some good signs, but dropped before coming up against a tall forward line. Work that one out. Maybe, h...

Talk about playing the long game hahaha

Love Plugger. Just stay out of his way...

How many "should" be available though? I wouldn't be including King and now Paddy by the looks of it. No point flogging injured players now the finals are gone. 27 seems unbelievable as of today.

Frawley for Clavarino hahaha, that's nuts. Chips really shouldn't have been playing this year, especially now that finals are gone.

Just saw Connolly out for 2 weeks.

Down to 23.

I have us with 29 available at a stretch. Take out the ones with question marks, we're down to 24. Yeah the MSD was an interesting strategy, especially with our injuries and knowing Ross and Membrey would be leaving. What can you say huh

Good thing about not making the finals is the club stalwarts can have a farewell match. Hopefully he can get back for it.

Can he kick??

No he can’t his footskills are poor.

OK, that's your opinion.

My opinion is he's a beautiful kick, in fact he's highly skilled.

If there's weakness it's his foot speed.

Why say "MYTH" in the title and not back it up with some logical discussion?

I've seen with my own eyes our guys looks unfit almost every week. If someone can explain why they think we're fit but look unfit I'd love to know.

The key thing for me is his observation around fitness. It's something a lot of us suspected. To me, it's clear that something went awry with the pre-season planning and it's affecting our ability to adhere to the game plan. We put in a huge effort against GWS, started well against Melbourne and th...

He is unfairly maligned. Didn’t deserve to be dropped either of the last 2 times. No he isn't. Even the man himself said going back to the VFL benefitted him greatly, and now it rocketed him to BOG. He was terrible when he got dropped, absolutely deserved it. But as someone else said, selection int...

He ran the most KMs for the whole team! In his first match!!

CURLY wrote: ↑Sun 30 May 2021 11:41am Highmore makes far to many mistakes.

Say what??? He's already one of the cleanest players on our list!


I'm all for justified criticism, but this stuff is nuts

magnifisaint wrote: ↑Fri 28 May 2021 1:14am Recruiting Frawley was a huge mistake

Nah, it's understandable. Cost nothing, not long term.

Playing him is the mistake. He might come good in the latter half of the year though.

It always seems like Cunnington tears us apart. How's he going this year?
