Get rid of the flogs, open up the forum and bring in new fans.
This forum is a shell of its former self.

Ever thought that we extended his contract so that he COULDN'T just walk? At 24 he hardly played this year, wouldn't surprise me if he wanted out for more opportunities

Carlisle's decision will be purely based on remuneration, despite what may or may not be said. The Saints won't pay overs for him in terms of trade value or contract. That probably says as much about Carlisle as anything else. But, don't be too disappointed if we miss out. There's another Victorian...

Mark Robinson suggesting a first and second rounder will be what Essendon are asking.

Complete crazy talk!

All the talk this year is of how terrible the draft is. If the Blues get pick 2 for Kruezer plus the academy picks, Pick 5 quickly becomes pick 7-8 Get the feeling we might break the traditional of the past two drafts (getting 3 picks in the top 20ish) and might take aim at some of the unwanted GWS...

Dont mind Geary but there is no chance he will be captain. I probably agree but if you were framing a market it would probably be Armo 1.95 Geary 4.50 Jack S 7.00 Jack N 12.00 Dylan R 25.00 That's not a reflection of his talents, but a reflection on our young list. Geary has been a solid servant fo...

Big Paddy fan but I think it's time he went back to the VFL. Watched him really closely when he was down my end of the ground and he is very reactionary. Spends a lot of time pointing where he wants the ball to be kicked instead of just leading and making the kicker kick it there. Of course it's jus...

Surely Geary doesn't go anywhere near him. I don't even know how he is still in the team. Lost a bit of pace and can't keep up with the smells so Webster took over.
Terrible kicking skills. Has courage yes, but someone must be ready to take his spot soon!

Massive Paddy fan, but time to drop him and let Bruce go back to having the square and space.
They spoil eachother quite a bit.
Bruce can at least put pressure on defenders, Paddy is useless when the ball hits the ground lol.

Shut up about the umpires, it's just sad

FIND A BLOODY TARGET IN THE 50!!!!

Good by geary again

I don't understand why the majority of our entries forward are bombs from 70-80m out that land shallow at about 30m out.
How can we not find another short pass at the 50 or something?

Once the ball hits the deck in our 50 and port get it they kill us on the rebound
So frustrating

bigred wrote:THese F50 entries are killing us.

We have gone in like this in at least a dozen games this year. We never score this way.

That's because we just bomb in long and don't look for a leading target!
It's like playing jack-in-the-pack back in school!

Our forward 50 entries are disgusting.
Just long bombs to a pack and hoping Bruce or Paddy can take a ripper.
Considering Bruce had struggled to take a grab in the last couple of weeks it's not the best idea

Wow geary

Nothing new then

I'll be booing him because he is an A grade flog.

The kid is still growing. Hopefully by the time he's 24 or so the body will be match hardened enough to play out full seasons, I hope so anyway because he's a real talent and potential match winner. But who can tell anyone's injury future. There's a lot of luck or lack of it involved. There's no do...

What is your age? Im guessing 9. Did you read the question? I like both. Why mention other words? I suppose you will just be gutless again and call me the C word. Pathetic.

No need for the hostility, I was merely pointing out how insightful you were.

Great game from the big man!

He still has next to no defensive side to his game and looks slower than treacle when the opposition have the ball.

But he is immovable in contests. Just stands his ground and brings it to ground if he doesn't mark it.
9 marks in the wet was something special though!
