AR has no idea when it comes to player selections. It's his biggest weakness.

For us to keep improving we need to find replacements that are an upgrade on players such as Gilbo. He has been poor this year & today was no different.

I agree with the OP

you don't get notified if you don't get nominated so I believe he got the nod

Games like yesterday's don't deserve to have positives mentioned. We were horrendous & every person at the club is accountable.

The AFL have created an unstoppable beast. If you think they will be good in the next 2-5 years....then wait until 2020 when they'll be unstoppable. Their age spread of kids born between 93-98 is quality like we've never seen. They won't even hit their straps until 2020 & beyond however will lik...

I would love a link. Thanks

Good call.

Marc Murphy is an above average midfielder for one of the worst teams in the comp. Nothing more. Steven is far more damaging. Breaks the lines, gains yardage & hits the scoreboard.

Great news. Good luck to the kid.

Okay now i'm ready to sack the coach.

+1

Seriously, he's the only young bloke that looks likely to become a dominant clearance player....& we don't play him?!

If I'm being completely honest, I lack faith in our coach. His selections are bewildering as is his match day coaching. He's a one trick pony. Old school coach that hasn't evolved with the game. Another Brendan McCarthy. I havent gone that far yet but he worries me. Whenever he talks it is usually ...

Interesting stats.

Unfortunately I suspect Lee's papers are stamped & we'll never know if he becomes a decent AFL player at the top level.

I understand we require some experience in our team specifically in the back half. My concern is we have both Dempster & Fisher taking too much or being given too much responsibility in the back half when at their stage in their careers they should move aside for younger players. I'm not saying ...

Don't think it will be this week. Perhaps a half the following week, but it will be in the development league.

Cheers Big Tone.

Nice. Close to playing VFL?

How's Freeman going mang?

Actually they've got Freeman as 'test' so I'd say he gets another week recovery.

This Freeman trade is going to be a disaster! "Indefinite" doesn't feel me with much confidence and especially with the fact that we will be giving up anywhere from pick 19 to 25 for him it will be an absolute debacle if he doesn't come good! Hmmm....To go with the Carlisle trade this cou...

Reviewing the game, Gilbert needs to be dropped. He was ordinary & in our three worst IMO.

Good head on his shoulders. If he makes it as a good footy player he's future captain material.

He had an ordinary game. Seriously lacks intensity. Is he better than Jack Watts? But debating that selection is a waste of time - what is done is done. More importantly what are we going to do with pick No 1 in the 2016 draft. He was disappointing but it was only one game. I feel he needs to signi...
