Can anyone tell me where the ignore poster button is? I'm absolutely itching to use it.

Click on your own name in the headline. The drop down menu will be self-explanatory.

Can you put yourself on ignore?

Can you put yourself on ignore?

I think that's a paradox.

Whoops, I will be ignored if I keep this up...

Gerard Healy is bad.

Paul Roos good.

Phew. Saved it.

Can you put yourself on ignore?

What good would that do? You'd just be ignoring yourself. Everyone else could still read what you have to say.

someone said earlier they think this forum is poorly moderated

No, it is just under-moderated

i think this place has only 2 mods. Needs to be a few more otherwise every thread will continue to be filled with garbage and arguments and go off topic and be unreadable

Reckon there is a bit of Simon Goodwin or Scotty west about him, great find

I read that as Simon Godfrey for some reason... And thought you were not well.

Christian Salem is no more less or no more impressive than Jordie Gysberts in the beginning.

I'm just as excited as anyone about this kid, just trying to personally keep a lid on it, will be tough..

For those of you who will say he's tougher than Gysberts you're probably right, but Gysberts was impressive in other ways, so im not directly comparing them

I just want those journos who criticized this trade to eat their words.

I think it was Kingy who defended the trade on 360 a few weeks back, rightly stating we needed two great players more urgently than just one potential superstar player.

[Gorgoroth 12,916]

Dermie also said the same a few weeks ago on league teams.

[Ted Lasso 19,260]

I see Salem and Tyson as 250 game players with as much potential as Kelly it was two for one, even if Kelly is the best of the three all three are going to be A grade players and we got two of them and it cost us one

[Machsy 2,858]

Dermie also said the same a few weeks ago on league teams.

fwiw I heard Dermie just prior to Round 1 saying, having been a part-time specialist coach at GWS, that Dom Tyson would be the best recruit any team got their hands on over the break.

He lauded Tyson's maturity and dedication to getting better.

Said there's no way this kid won't make it.

Obviously Tyson's form has dropped as the season has gone on, but it looks like Dermie might be right.

Good luck with that one.

Salem on as the sub, kicks an awesome goal. Why was he sub? Is this guy the real deal?

[SaberFang 7,151]

Because he won't be able to run out four quarters just yet. Roos' initiation with JKH was spot on, and he should continue with Salem.

Don't be surprised if Salem's out of breath by 3QTR time.

Reminds me of Hodge. Which I think was one of his pre-draft comparisions IIRC

[dazzledavey36 54,186]

I need to put up my hand and cop a slice of humble pie. I voiced my concern about picking Salem over Nathan Freeman and Luke Dunstan. But he has been nothing but super for us this year. His pin point delivery and poise is such a delight to watch. While Dunstan will be a good player, Freeman is currently struggling in the VFL.. could you imagine the wrist slashing lol

I love how he took Franklin on last night and surprisingly managed to get away from him. I would love to see him push up into the midfield but i don't think we will see that till next year. Leave him where he is now he is developing just fine. He add grunt and hardness his decision making is top notch.

A midfield combo of Salem Petracca Brayshaw Tyson Viney Stretch ANB and Toumpas looks quite formidable in years time.
