Re: Do you expect King to be a better footballer than
King if ever this was a wake up call. Comparisons to Special Officer Doofy should ring alarm bells. Great forwards demand and lead. They demand how the ball is delivered, where it is delivered and how the forward line operates. They impose themselves on the team, opposition and game. King does it at...

Re: Bowes
Has to come down to how much space in the cap we have.
Would hate to lose a Hunter Clark over this.
The money needs to come from somewhere.
It is not as if we are already over paying for ordinary players... Jones..

Damn.. want him gone.
He is actually better running off half back than wing. Closer to the action and seems to link better.

Re: We lose long and Clark what does it mean for our club
We won't get DeGoey. He is not he answer anyway. Stupidity and poor management if Clark and Long go. Clark has lots upside after a couple injury affected years. Long just needs to be used better. Understand that Long is not a Rioli. He is not a smooth flowing, silky skilled running machine. More lik...

Re: People Blame Lade for our woeful forward set up.
Forward line is dysfunctional.. at best ... that is a direct reflection of the coach. Players get in each others way They have no system of kicking at goal They are hap-hazard in approach Yes there issues in transition between mids and forwards. The forwards need to demand the ball how they want it....

Re: The Age says Clarko would like Ben Long at Norf
They took Guerra because he was a great kick.Clarkson also recruited Dew on the other HBF his theory was elite long kicks to beat the flood and get the forwards (buddy) in open space. Liehert used his thumping kick on many occasions to get over the press. Long does not only get a lot of possession'...

Interesting they are seeking to trade players that have injury interrupted seasons. Eg gresh and clark The trade value would be down at the moment. Both have serious upside if they get them right.

Re: Jack Newnes delisted by Blues...
Doubt he will get another gig.
Serviceable. But there is no more upside. Realistically becomes a list blocker.
Unless he can being a coaching role to the ground ... which he hasn't given any indication.
Did well.

Needs to have a good predestination nd will get back to his best.
Would be traded for 3 round at best at the moment.

Re: Ben Long Midfield
Enforcer. Good for pitch hitting in the centre.
Every good team has someone that causes the opposition to second think. That moment of hesitation.
Difficult role to play in today's game. Long does it well.

Re: Where to now for Billings?
Playing without confidence.
Has zero currency and is at the cross roads.
Has talent. Is there desire?
Could be used better. But needs belief in himself and a want to win.
At the moment is looking like a bust.
