Re: Playing the kids

So given Henry is back this week, who from Sandringham yesterday demanded AFL selection? Noting Clark and Allison were injured during the course of the game What is the criteria for AFL selection (given you are not of established quality)? Webster came straight back in because we lack a lock down de...

Re: Coaches votes Round 8 vs North

Mind you, the real positive is that Wilson, Windhager and Wanganeen-Milera all featured in the votes

And the NM full back who was obviously given a specific job and performed - so 4 Votes from the NM Coach?

Re: Coaches votes Round 8 vs North

I always rated Acres and was disappointed he was Richardson’s fall guy then when he left As I have out on here before, I asked the question to be told there was no reason other than a view going home to WA would be of benefit to him And he was not looking to go back to WA, which his return to Carlto...

Re: Darcy Wilson

Shows both poise and class And, looking to the future it is my opinion that we have no leg speed player to put on the elite small forwards across the competition so in a side I offered I parked him to cover that deficiency It was noted that today North Melbourne found plenty of space we could not cl...

Re: The Roar opinion piece

They probably trawl sites such as this for their negative material

Such reporting is symptomatic of media - and the reason they are becoming redundant
