Re: VFL Rd 15 Sandringham Vs Richmond

Really awful first half of footy. Both teams butchered the ball. Second half opened right up. Thought it was hickeys best game for sandy that I have seen. Ross was excellent. Acres just has class and I thought his tackling today was first class. Wright had patches as did Saunders but I have question...

The steal

I am a great believer that change, especially in football, takes time. A change of game plan, for instance, can be coached all summer but may not translate to the field for up to half a year or even more. Classic point in case is when Ross took over at The Saints. Most of us were bemused at seeing u...

Re: Fwd 50 entries

Uber flood correct and we plugged all the holes as well after hogan got away early with the good leads. They stopped our switch as well which really meant we had to bomb long. Need to work on a late switch or similar as doing it in the back line is predictable and gives to much time for opposition ...

Love how d mc takes the game on. Cockie is an animal love the way he plays. Eli starting to have an influence on ball and holmes after some adjustment has made some great taps to advantage

Prediction

Goddard will be picked for the game this week and will not play for sandy again. The guy is ready and will become the pivotal Part of our defence for the next ten years.

Re: VFL Rd 5 Sandringham Vs Frankston - Good win X 2 teams

There today and had the following thoughts Acres (I am a huge fan) BOG. Love his second efforts and oozes class and time when he has the ball. Curren was awesome in close and is now unlucky not to be in the ones. Ray was a class above. Hard calls Holmes is still two years away at best. His tap work ...

Watching the replay again. Does anyone else see a young Mark Kellett running around? Just his running style maybe?

Re: Sandy vs Willy match thread

Left after Willy got the first goal in the last. Bloody cold place to watch footy. Goddard, Eli and Acres are too good for this level IMO. Thought Hickey was okay at times and D Mac shows promise. Lee down back is only an experiment and he just does not show enough to suggest he will ever be a regul...

Re: Paddy

Probably be okay if the worst skilled side in the league could hit him on a lead. When the ball sailed over his head in the first minutes all I could think of was what a wasted opportunity for him to get the perfect confidence builder for him.

Just as a last note on this. Contacted the club and they have moved us to set seats. Unfortunately a lot of the people around us that we know only through the club will not be moving with us but maybe we can catch them in the bar, that is the ones that stay as members, unfortunately I already know t...

As mentioned will contact the club tomorrow no issue.

There is a bond between the supporters that is grea...

Re: Very very very unhappy

When this happened to the Kangaroos, I have friends who were in similar seats on level two with them, what did the Kangaroos do? They did a deal with Etihad and bunched the supporters next to Axcess one. They ended up in Bay 37. Now that is how you look after your supporter base.

Re: tom mitchell

His dad despises the Saints and the two of them are on a cosy deal at the Swans. Barry's departure from Carlton was hardly fairy tale so I doubt he will leave and if he does would be surprised if it was to go to Carlton. Why does he hate us so much? I'd love to get Tom.... I also want to why so man...
