The Chris Yarran Thread

[Bring Back Barassi 552]

Malthouse and Yarran have obviously fallen out, and I think he will be put on the trade table at the end of the year.

He could easily play midfield and is probably the fastest guy in the league.

Seems to be struggling under the disciplinarian regime, would be great for us i reckon.

Any thoughts ?

[Pennant St Dee 13,301]

Yarran doesn't have the work ethic to play in the midfield and will not come cheap.

I see him as a player with cameo roles running off half back or playing a role in a forward pocket

[Bring Back Barassi 552]

I reckon we could snaffle him for #20 and would be worth it

Not worth #20, would be speculative the way he's been going lately.

[Damo 3,374]

Im lead to believe Daisy Thomas has been made an offer by Carlton.

If Collingwood dont match it, Daisy will go to the Blues is the whisper.

MM doesnt get along with Chris Yarran it seems.

Yarran is an exceptionally talented player that most coaches would want to have on-board.

[Grimseyisgod 378]

You guys have said for so long Sylvia has attitude issues and that's letting us down.

Than why the hell would you want to bring in a player like Chris Yarran who also has attitude issues?

You'd be starting forums each week to complain....

Atleast Sylvia is working on his attitude issues and is progressing, i dont see any improvement from Yarran's second season to now..

steer clear

And #20 in a thin draft pool is not?

did we have to start a new thread..................

[jazza 1,323]

rubbish

clean and tidy with the pill

players like this make a team go down the middle and give forwards every chance to kick a score

running the ball 85 metres is a great thing for any team to have,

also blokes like this make footy easy to watch and enjoyable

yes, this thread was started to upset me

In the last 20 odd years we've had far too many seagulls, head duckers, footsteps hearers and scared players. No to Yarran.

[Gorgoroth 13,016]

Sure, lets add a player who goes missing as soon as the pressure goes up and some one plays in the same vicinity as him. Does not really chase. All down hill. Not required.

[Tony Tea 2,809]

Seagull.

Head-ducker.

Footsteps hearer.

Been near less packs than Yze.

No.

[GIRO 63]

Carlton would want pick 20 plus watts if we asked for him

shakes head, admittedly without knowing any behind scenes info....

Lockett, GAblett-snr, Buddy, Ian Stewart, Mainbearing, SJohnson, GFarmer, AJakovich, Schwartz..... he can play. theres a room for improvement?

[monoccular 17,572]

Wow....a new Yarran thread

Mods - merge please

[Bring Back Barassi 552]

Tell 'em they're dreamin'

[Pipefitter 2,163]

Just the kind of player that "could" thrive under Roos.

[Demonsterative 3,020]

Yarran and Adams to the Dees

Warnock and Duigan to GWS

Priority pick to Carlton

I'll take that :-)

i'll admit he takes the game on sometimes but as soon as the going gets tough he puts his head down and doesnt get down and dirty.

not the type of player the MFC need. What happens when in the future we are in tight games with quality sides such as Sydney... we need a tough nut, i would not want someone who has good skills, we have plenty of those players.

Lockett, GAblett-snr, Buddy, Ian Stewart, Mainbearing, SJohnson, GFarmer, AJakovich, Schwartz..... he can play. theres a room for improvement?

lets go through them

Lockett: total freak, one of the of the greatest modern forwards

Ablett Snr: Freak

Buddy: hardly lazy, dont even put him in the same sentence as Yarran

Stewart- dont know who he is

S Johnson: gun player, not lazy, works his ass off

Farmer: Talented, but could have been better

Jakovich: Gun, not lazy at all

Schwartz: not lazy either, it was evident though when wasnt playing to his potential

there is room for improvement, i agree.

but not at the MFC

your making excuses again & not wanting to take on challenges.. this is exactly what those fences around the MCC are designed for, to keep the conservative elements safe inside, without any form of challenge to come there way.

and that is what we've delivered over the clubs History..... except for the times when we Imported some tenaciousness from the tigers, in the form of Checker Hughes, thru the agency of Percy page, who obviously recognised straight away the 'Achilles Heel' of the MCC/MFC.

..... once that 'Checker Hertitage' was smashed down, that wall went straight back up... and the late 60's & on happened to us.. our regular culture is non combative... thats what those fences Keep inside...

... this is NOT how to be a 'Footy Club'.

played senior footy for 18 years and never in a team of 20 goers

always had a silky smooth softy

plus a couple of fools

some grunters

it takes 20 different blokes to make a team

interesting thought, name our silky smooths right now

[rjay 25,063]

Yarran and Adams to the Dees

Warnock and Duigan to GWS

You might take it but there's no way know GWS would.

Jack Grimes- beautiful disposal

Jimmy Toumpas- same as grimes

Davey- with footy in hand is one of the most dangerous in the game

we have players with good kicks and silky skills, even Dom Barry

develop him rather than giving up a pick for someone who is lazy

[Adam The God 30,403]

Are you joking RE: Grimes? One of our worst kicks.

[Dynamic Demon 17]

All the Chris Yarran lovers should look at his stats. Apart from 2011 his averages are well below those of a gun as so many say. He certainly goes missing and is not a midfielder. The numbers speak for themselves.
