Year - Goals.Behinds 2011- 30.11 (good year) 2012 - 8.6 (writing on the wall) 2013 - 4.4 (cooked) 2014 - 8.10 (cooked) 2015 - 2.5 His DE is now below average. That is perspective. His goal average has gone from 1.6 (2010) down to 0.5. An opportunist like him needs to score. The reason he now kicks ...

Apart from those two misses at end - which he probably should have kicked although neither were sodas - Schneids was okay tonight, did some really constructive things. With Roo, Joey, Gilbert and even Farren out we're sorely lacking in leadership (given our chosen rebuild path) so Schneids is clearl...

Josh Bruce = The Boss

I was at the ground (not a great one for spectators unfortunately, glad I'll most likely never return there, although it's cool being close enough to the action to hear them talk and call etc), and while we made our fair share of errors under pressure I thought our intensity and attack on the ball w...

Perhaps, a long way back...there was certainly talk of that back then too. Some of the footage on those videos is quite unique though as much of it was taken by the club rather than the TV stations of the time. One shows a Winmar mark against Essendon early in his career that live was one of the be...

so youre saying they couldnt have provided support any other way? im with K couldve met him outside, at the pub etc im pretty sure milne wouldnt have thought any less of his mates and understood the situation, being the ultimate club man he was. 2c Well there are obviously many ways to show support...

And why is our captain at a rape trial? Show your support privately. Need sponsors desperately, terrible decision IMO. brand/face of club... I'd be a lot more concerned if one of our captain's best friends and former teammates was going through something this traumatic and he wasn't there lending h...

Fail sadly. really wanted those multiple first round picks as I truly believe it would have fast tracked our rebuild big time. Imagine having picks 4,6 & 7. Yeah but you're disappointed by something not happening that surely was never realistically a chance of happening, IMHO. I mean I would ha...

Pelchan said all along that the aim was 3 picks inside the first round. Given compensation picks etc, having 1, 21 and 22 is pretty close to meeting that goal. You can't evaluate potential business deals purely from the results without knowing how the to and fro was handled - if the other mobs weren...

I was really impressed with Rhys' kicking at goal this season. Regularly went back and slotted shots from 50-55m, seemed like his confidence was really building. Another pre-season or two and some decent supply and you could imagine him easily going to next level. With that in mind #21 is a bit of a...

Well great, as long as everyone else is so blasé about our destiny being in the hands of an alcoholic. I love a drink as much as the next person - some would say more - but I've never let that impact something that has ramifications adversely affecting an organisation I profess to love. Disgraceful ...

I like Richo and reckon his game plan will be great to watch in a couple of years when we're used to it and have a stronger core... Lyon's plan took a couple of years to settle... Will Richo get to keep his game plan once Beveridge comes on board as Director of Coaching.. What does he direct, the w...

Do you all see this current situation at the Dogs as being very far removed from our situation with Watters a year ago? From memory there were whispers then that Roo and Joey weren't signing until Watters was gone, and perhaps Dal might not have made the decision he did if Watters got the bullet ear...

One of the telecasts this year they had Armo mic'ed up pre-game (perhaps during too?) and he seemed to be one of the main talkers and motivators in the squad, especially in terms of encouraging and occasionally admonishing when warranted the young guys. Perhaps he was being more vocal than usual bec...

Didn't Paul Morwood come with Silvio? Remember all the subterfuge and then them running out through the banner at Waverley and a shock going around the ground...

thought he was shoe in for upgrade finished in the top 10 at bnf Gwilt also finished top 10 in b&f and got delisted so work that out :lol: Different positions so different competition, plus early-20s > late-20s. I know Curren plays similar roles but can't see them cutting CJ and not retaining M...

I used to like watching him play too, and as a rule I'm not often appreciative of opposition players when we're up against them. RIP.

Anyone heard anything along these lines? Heard a whisper that it might be an option if things fall a certain way with trades and drafting etc. Seems odd to me but source seems solid enough...

We'll be able to sing 'Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside' in anger again...

Yeah I'll just give Bakes a call now. If you know something to the contrary why not say it?

at first i was gutted by the whole lyon thing but over time and on reflection i can see why he did what he did and honestly i cant say i wouldnt do the same if i was in the same position professionally ... Would you get your manager to act in good faith negotiations with your current employer halfw...

Thanks Beau. Always had a red hot dip, good luck with your next adventures...

PS I'll miss singing 'Bow River' or 'Mr Bojangles' whenever you kicked a goal...

Ha ha, pay that!

I was just thinking too that it was really exciting footy to watch, if this is going to be how Richo wants us to play as a team moving forward I'll be happy with that. I didn't mind the old defensive game plans while we were winning, but if we can achieve positive results with a more attacking minds...
