Re: CJ

Another good game. Worked his but off...gained lots of ball and laid 5tackles. Also unlike some....played all 4 quarters. Also his disposal tonight while not perfect was far far more effective than say Luke Ball's. CJ EASILY gets the most improved player award so far this year.... It will be killin...

Seriously.... However, I think the idea of dropping Dal is totally insane. Some posters are talking as if this was a normal approach taken towards star players who are a bit out of form. Bulldust!!

With the raping of the following 2-5 drafts this is the last chance to get some real talent into the ranks. The catalyst for ...

When Lyon was hired, it seemed he was respected for his footy nous and tactical understanding of the game.
