James Gwilt in the team. Very slow when chasing down opposition. Not damaging enough.(Bring in Goose)

Raph Clarke in the team. Sloppy player. Very slow. Bad decision. Not a one grab player.(Lucky we have Milne to come back and replace him)

McQualter a worry. You watch teams like Melb and they have so many kids which excite and look like one day they will have the potential to break a game open. Lets bring in Armitage for some fresh legs and give the kid a crack.

Alot has been said about our bottom 6 and people are raving about how much they make a difference but compare our bottom 6 to Geelongs and there is a massive gap.

Ive always said you cant win a GF with players that wouldn't get a game with another club in the league and unfortunately these 4 would not get a game at any other club because they are not good enough.

Nows the time to bring back Goose and Max. Get some game time into them now rather than in Rd 16plus leading into finals.
Another troll.

very harsh! I think he has improved considerably over the past season or two.

Leave JB alone!

Actually believe Blake would get a spot in quite a few teams in the league, he's a jack of all trades that play almost anywhere.
But in answering your question regarding Geelong, if we play like we did last night, wouldn't matter who was in our side, we wouldn't beat them, or a few other teams in the competition right now.
However, if we play like we did against the Bulldogs, filth, Port Powerless, Adelaide, West Coast etc, oh yes we will beat them.
We would beat them even with Blake, Gwilt, Mini etc.
If everyone in your side does their job, than you can beat anybody.


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

As always, a ludicrous list of whipping boys.

McQualter? He's been a key element in sustaining our pressure when they are bringing the ball out of defence and has also shown new abilities as a crumber. I reckon that Schneider goes before him ATM.

Raph? Obviously, he'd be a worry in the hothouse situation of a finals series. (Wait a minute!! Wasn't he our best player in the finals last year? Gee....)

Gwilt? He's been very good in 2 out of our last 3 games (he was ordinary last week, but he wasn't alone). Sure, he isn't as much of a threat inside the attacking 50 as Riewoldt, Kosi or Milne. But he's doing well and his physical presence off the ball is growing each week: which is something we haven't really had inside our forward line since Hamill busted his knee.

Blake? You've got to be kidding!! Along with Riewoldt and Sam Fisher (and, towards the end, Raph), he was one of the stars of our run home last year. He hasn't played at his best in the last couple of weeks, but he is as at much risk of being dropped as I am of getting a date with Jessica Beal.

Baker? I thought he was among our best for the first few rounds of the season. He's played a couple of rather poor games, but - as with Blake - he's a hard, seasoned performer who adds more to our overall impact as a team than many on here seem to be able to understand.

I notice that Schneider, no matter how little he delivers in a game (and I reckon he has played one good game out of 10 goes so far this season), is always immune from criticism in these sorts of discussions. I guess Schneider's a pretty Aryan sort of a name, so he's likely to appeal to the sort of posters who reflexively attack Jimmy and Raph (oh Lordy hush my mouth: how could I possibly dare to suggest that some of our beloved posters have a problem with dark-skinned players? Shame on me.)

Look, I know that many on this forum seem to have a broken record running in their heads that says "play the kids, play the kids, play the kids".

But this is getting ridiculous. We are 10-0 FFS. Our defence has been so miserly that we are a good chance of breaking some sort of all time record. We are the second best attacking team. What more do some of you expect??

Agreed, what you are accusing people of is a pretty serious offence. Dont bandy it around and detract from the real issues of racism which exist in our community.


Maybe this year?

YAY!!!!

Another low tier player bashing thread!!!

At least SS is consistent in the types of threads being generated.


it has been around this time that "Kosi" will headbutt a fence, rip a hamstring or belt someone.

We can't beat Geelong with....

A bit of a direct statement don't you think, perhaps an "in my opinion" would have been nice?
