Windhager certainly seems German. Should be pronounced Markoos Vindhahger

Re: Changes at end of the year

Changes I'd want to see Out: Ross Membrey Allison Bonner Jones McLennan Byrnes Re-sign Campbell, Hayes and Webster as depth for one more year unless we're picking up readymade replacements. Van Es gets one more chance at getting his body right. Give Hotton a chance to show something after a horror r...

Re: 3 veterans are done

I also think Crouch is done ✅ Jones is done ✅ Campbell is done ✅ I think it's premature to write off Crouch. He was our best midfielder last year and has had a season ruined by injury so far. Putting up huge numbers in the VFL at the moment and realistically should be in the 22 right now. Jones I a...

Dingbat.
According to Ling, Ben Long played one of the best games of football anyone will ever see. Absolutely dominated with his 10 disposals, 1 goal and 3 shots that didn't score.

Re: 3 veterans are done

Ross and Skunk are thoroughly cooked. Jimmy can still play a role to a reasonable level but I'd prefer that we give Paton a month in the seniors to see if he can still play the small defender role and potentially earn another contract. Agree that there's not much point in playing Webster since final...

Re: Draft Strategy

Gresham has been ok but hasn’t exactly set the world on fire. Hardly value for money. He’s also lost a bit of pace the last few because of his leg injuries which means he’s not as damaging as he was in the first 5 years of his career. Out of curiosity I just checked his stats and after kicking 9 go...

Re: Changes for Gold Coast

So Ross has decided that Seb offers us more this week than Crouch would. He's probably the only person who follows football with that opinion. Not just Ross. Boris Banger BJ Damian Carroll maybe Jake Batchelor might have a voice in Match Committee as well. Something weird is going on. Do they expec...

Re: Changes for Gold Coast

I can’t believe no crouch. You need an older fella in the 2s to teach the way and I thought it would have been Ross getting dropped, Crouch in. Bonner out for Arie. Arie has been tearing it up and smashing the door to be selected. Needs a game. 💯💯 Bonner got the DCM from Port because although he ca...

Re: Latest scuttle butt…

Worked out brilliantly for us with BJ, Dal and McEvoy. Looking forward to replacing a consistent top 10 B&F player with the next Tom Lee. I love Battle but to put him in the same category as the 3 above is ridiculous. Also this is about free agency which wasnt really a thing. We don't want to l...

Re: Sack Lyon

I was concerned when Walsh was gone within weeks of Lyon's appointment. And also when Lethers was suddenly pushed out. We had two leaders who should have been able to stand their ground and keep Lyon in check. Instead we have his yes men Mission and Sos running the show with him. I'm not sure if the...

Re: Let’s talk about cheating

We didn’t deserve to win. The game was always played on Port’s terms. However, on this occasion, we got absolutely reamed by the umps. Was it a conspiracy, no? Did it cost us the game, unlikely. But did it affect the final margin being even closer and our chances of snatching an unlikely victory. A...

Re: Let’s talk about cheating

Margin was probably right. Port wasteful at times. Umpiring disgusting. Yes those balance out, but ports kicking was their own doing. I'm not one to log on after every loss and blame the umps but they did determine the outcome tonight. The outcome should be determined by the players. Port's inaccur...

Re: Garcia. Great Debut

Geeze he's got intensity and tenaciousness in spades. Imagine if Jack Billings that those qualities - would be a Brownlow medalist. Garcia clearly needs a couple of pre seasons in the gym but I think the small forward pressure role suits him well for now in Butler's absence. Then in a year or two he...

Re: Phillipou Close to Signing

I certainly hope he re-signs but he has been gifted games for the past 12 months. Outside of the occasional good overhead grab and some slick hands in congestion he isn't offering much. Was so impressive at the beginning of last year but now he's looking like a big Jack Billings with lower production

Re: Garcia. Great Debut

Pou best at St Kilda and 14th in the league for pressure acts this year. Top 20 in the league for tackles inside 50. It's clear he wants to do well with and without the ball. Pressure acts to me is an odd statistic. To some degree, they indicate that you're failing to be first to the ball on a regu...

Owens might need a couple of weeks at Sandy if he keeps playing like he is, he's nowhere near his best this season. He might need a running coach next off season, he's as slow as. You think a 20 year old half forward will be dropped if he continues to go at 15 disposals (8 contested), a goal and 3 ...

Re: Bonner

Showed why he was delisted by Port. He looked great in the pre season but I wondered how he'd stand up to the pressure in the real season. Looks like he crumbles. I'd rather stick with Hastie
