jimmy is a great player is allways there and does not turn the ball over much,and does a job on often bigger players.
Is a quality player unlike some other guys in the team.

No Johnson or Walsh...... Hmmmm.... Why would they play johnson he only kicked 5 goals last week and played well the week before. Walsh is not what we wont he is big strong can mark play forward back ruck and is a clever player.Has been named in Sandys best a few weeks running. But i guess they wou...

You've trotted this nonsense out at least 4 times already.

Ross Lyon never said it.

No matter how many times you post it, it will still be false/wrong.

Finally someone listened.

Herald sun 2 saturdays ago!
Then he said during that week that he will go and by a Key position forward as nowone has shown enough.

Ross has said that he will not play the kids anymore,unfortinatly. I thought they would try one of the Key position like johnson,Walsh. Both have been playing well for sandy,or Archer,lynch, Stanley( injured hammy) but that now will have to wait till next season. I really feel that it will styfle ou...

Play the kids ffs. The season is over. Get some games into them NOW. I agree with you big red but ross in an artical a few weeks ago in the HS said he has DROPED THE YOUTH POLICY!For experience so we wont see any of the kids unless there is injury or suspension. So Mini will come in with joey only ...

It depends on the trend of the game Con, big bodied forwards are the in form ones at the moment. Cloke, Petrie, Kennedy... Perhaps the game will evolve back to suiting the slight more athletic forward soon, but until then, they will struggle to make an impact IMO. Archer 193 cm 99kg big bodied Wals...

I thought Ledger was rested due to pulling up sore? The same player that was out recently with a long hammy break. Last time we got a good batch of kids we played them all early and ended up with a crop of injury prone players. Yes lets drive Ledger into the ground and create another X.....:idea: I...

With both Johnson and Walsh currently pushing Very hard for selection the comeback of Gards could not of come at a worse time. Huge chance we will see him playing second fiddle to Mcevoy ala kosi. Playing as a full forward and going into the ruck for a Bit. Meaning on past history of how Ross likes...

At least with the pies and cats everyone of their players is playing in the VFL seniors.. not the VFL reserves. So I guess their develop improves a lot quicker. Take over Frankstan,and play home games at our seaford location with great facilitys and the coachers/players right there.We would have to...

I know this will cause the usual arguments but I don't care!! i suggested it weeks ago and I think its still valid: Roo to CHB. He gets his mojo back. He would be a good matchup on Petrie; Zac to FF. He's done ok there before, he gets his mojo back and doesn't have to worry about keeping up with bi...

He is going to be a ripper of a forward.

Yes a great mark as well but ross wonts a mature age forward we dont have a youth policy anymore.

There has to be someone out there some where ????

The young guys find it hard in their first season to keep their bodies up for extended periods. Siposs was great in one game and looked less involved by the week, playing his confidence down doesn't fast track development. Guys that are in that next group are Johnson a tallish forward, we went with...

I think given our current form his inclusion is only a matter of time and opposition. Apart from the NAB I haven't seen Tommy play a game yet but by all reports he's knocking hard. I know the wisdom is he should start in the back line but I think it's time we experimented more with the forward stru...

spot on , all this year guys on this forum site have been calling for youth to be picked and played ,but when an ex coach says we should be playing youth some guys jack up, ffs he bloody right ! the young guys Geelong played made our old blokes look useless......and these guys werent top 10 draft p...

Gotta add my voice to this... Tommy Ledger would have given us more. The experience would have been better for him, and the team. Huge selection mistake. 9 possessions and Joey was disappointed to be subbed off? The selection process has lost me. I'm not convinced players are under enough pressure ...

It is very clear that Ross now has " the opportunity, without recriminations " to find out who amongst the young guys, can come on. 8-) There are 10 games to go, so let's roll a few through these games - get plenty of games into Sipposs, Simpkin, Ledger, Winmar. "Try" Stanley, W...

Tried hard. Constantly turned the ball over and were seriously shagged by soft, inept umpiring decisions in front of Cats goals (how many goals from frees for them...I counted 4....to our zip?...umps need an overhaul IMO). How do we honestly get better skills into this side? in a hurry so we can co...

Time to put your money where your mouth is Ross. Sam gilbert has been a very good player for this team in previous years but he has had 13 games now to find form and is a still an absolute liability. Guys like lynch and Walsh are pushing for selection and deserve to be rewarded. I hate to say it bu...

We are getting the usual output from our small game specialists - Milne Schneids and Riewoldt. And if Gram were a horse hed be shot by now. But instead of dropping him and the rest they will drop steven ,armo,big mc and put in gardy,mini,Blake no young guys just old fellars. That is the state of ou...

Will get droped for gardy in 2 weeks thats they way the club is going.

Steven is pretty quite in the middle Why doesn't Ross change him and Arno so they both get going and then keep rotating ?????????????????? Steven will get droped next game for mini kids for experience thats the selection critiria plus big mc for gardy. We got killed for pace and for big marking tar...

Too many excuses for too many highly paid show-ponies who fail when the going gets tough. It's pretty clear we have only one true leader with the balls to drag a team along by example and he's out for the year. I'm pleased that lesser lights like Peake, Jones and Steven tried their guts out at leas...

I heard Kosi's form wasn't that impressive last week for Sandringham. Can only guess they are going for experience. For 3qtrs the ball never came down to ff and when it did it was butchered. The things I did see was he was giving his all and provided contets and pressure. How about watch the game f...

The facts are right. The journalist's interpretation may or may not be. Perhaps the fact that it is Geelong has caused our selectors to play safe and go for the tried and true. If we win it could set us back years :wink: Were was the source from the club or just a journalist making it up (gee that ...
