Absinthe anyone?

too late, already sloshed at the thought!

Cameron is the best young centre half forward currently playing. He has the form on the board and will only get better over the next couple of years. He would be the ideal Roo replacement. I would be happy for a direct swap- yes for pick 1. All the better if a late first round pick comes our way as ...

Au contraire , it shows the MRP idiots as the unnecessary tools of the establishment and the post modernist football aficionado who seem to want to erode any vestige of physicality from the game.

Back in our heyday my kids gave nicknames to three players based on comments from me they must have overheard when they were playing - the names: Unforgiveable (Bakes), BK (Zac) , and "time and again"(Blake). They told me BK stood for brainless knob, an expression they inexplicably link to...

could he (Petracca) be anything like Ollie Wines?? I have not seen him play but he sure is a solid lad!

must be another Lenny??????????

This thread should be added to the "ten ways" thread. Most of us both despise and envy the cats.

Yep, trading stars is dumb. No, Geelong has not needed to (they have moved on the support cast), BUT as Con has said, their support cast has currency as in a good team they still seem good players. Gwilt, for example, is as good as Hunt, yet most of us did not see a trade for him as likely (and it i...

freo are likely to emulate the saints in '97, undone by injuries. nothing Lyon can do about that!

I agree with plugger, it shows a new maturity at the club, and a respect for a fine person and player to give him the opportunity of another year or two unencumbered by the need to orchestrate a trade. my own view is that a trade was always an unlikely proposition but that is not to say that he woul...

If we get three picks in the draft inside the top 20, if the current rookies are upgraded as seems likely - i.e. Weller, Templeton and possibly Shenton, and one for contingencies, then we need 7 spots. Currently we have 6 to the best of my recollection. Who else goes? Yes we may trade a contracted p...

Sadly he is the same as Milera now- looks a player but too little impact, no defensive side, misses key goals and whilst a likeable chap I am sure (so everyone says), he is there to play football. Again, time to go!

That is the problem, does the good outweigh the bad? - he expects everyone else to do the stuff he can't be bothered doing, like manning up, chasing, doing the gut running - so many times it is his man that starts the run out of defence with Schneids pointing and gesticulating but not much else. Tim...

Trading three stalwarts in three years is too much - Monty should stay; Schneider should definitely go -regardless of the myth that he is a great player cruelled by injury, he is lazy, waits for others to do the work and lacks fitness; it seems Gwilty has seen the writing on the wall and Jonesy also...

There are certainly players who should have a good think at half time - you can tell the ones who will not be around next year, they are playing like it!

Schneider is embarrassing himself

and some think we are coached by one ?? must be a conspiracy to keep us down!

Well, you did ask - so P66 this response Seems a little off topic, and the first of the posts to be so. I do not consider playing the man is ever on topic, it is not adding to the discussion and does nothing to help discern whether your assessment of a players worth is likely to be more accurate tha...

I'd take Cameron - closest thing to a Roo like forward in years, and he is a little better below the knees!

If Schneids was a car you would be selling it! It is not his fault (one hopes) that no matter what he has tried his body fails him. What is unequivocally true is that he does not warrant another contract. Is there anyone on here who thinks otherwise? If so , why?

I think the back line will be the least of our problems in 2015 - presuming injuries don't cruel us again: - Geary, Delaney, Wright, Webster, Gilbert, Fisher (and unfortunately dempster who should struggle to get a game) reads pretty well and if we snag a centre half back well........ As others have...
