Oh ok, So he was maybe criticizing Gawn, or maybe thought we shouldn't have re-signed Spencer? You believe everything you read on the net BBO?

Christ Stu, settle down and try (I know it's difficult for you) being logical. Reread your comment - it's silly. I believe there is something called list management. or future planning. Now, given Jamar's age, and the fact that both Gawn and Spencer have had serious knee issues would it not be prudent to keep an eye out for future replacements?. This not being disrespectful to anyone - it is good planning.

Being logical? Like making assumptions on what a poster meant despite what he posted and then starting yet another argument with me cos it's just what you do...

 

Were you in the Hassett Room Stuie?

It's actually up to someone to prove something DID happen rather than it didn't. As I said earlier, you could make up anything that way. ie- Peter Jackson told me in the Long Room that you wet your pants. Now, were you there at the time to say it didn't happen? Cos if you weren't then that means it DID happen.

Far out. Have you guys even been on the internet before?

I didn't make an assumption Stu - I postulated an alternative. Now go away and learn a little about the rules of logic and debate before engaging with me! Goodnight!

When you "postulate an alternative" but disregard the others you're making an assumption.

Tex Walker to come play with Bernie and Clisby

Well..... with Bernie at least.

 

Paul Roos said at training the other day that you pick your nose and eat it. Now, being you weren't there to hear it then it must have happened.

im not the one disputing a posters comments on the forum, who was obviously at a pre match function where some information was given which GIG chose to share

Stu you have this childish habit of needing to have the final word. This is not uncommon in one who has not attained full maturity and cognitive development but, unfortunately, it tends to confirm those very facts.

The final word? Like continuing to post after saying "Goodnight".... Nice to meet you Pot.

Give it a rest, children.

Stuie is right to question whether or not the comment was actually said, because it seems an ultra odd comment for an assistant coach to make, and we have heard many fabricated rumours on here. Also, the retort of 'you weren't there so you can't deny it' is not a good one. Just because I wasn't at the royal wedding doesn't mean that I'll believe someone when they say that the Queen gave Prince Phillip a wedgie.

Grimes Is Good also posted that he knew Greg Wells would be the next President a couple of weeks before Bartlett was named...

The question was asked " will we target a KPF in the off season" as Dan McPherson is one of our forward coaches. His response was what I posted earlier. They will be looking to bring in a ruckman.

Believe it or not I have better things to do than make crap up to get a bite out of a pathetic poster on this site....

You said "they will be bringing in a ruckman to replace Jamar". Big difference.

Massive difference...

Massive difference...

Errrr yeah, it is... Jamar is a senior in-form contracted player.

Jamar's contracted for next year so obviously he didn't mean replace right away.

As Roos said to ling post match, games are won and lost in the middle. We need more quality through there. We corrected the midfield in a big way but Cross is 31 and Vince is about 28.

We need mids and half backs that can run and use the ball and get it forward efficiently.

I think mids. 2 or 3 mids can easily be tagged out of games now, 6 or 7 good mids cant be. Tyson being tagged last week made me realize it when we didnt have all that much depth to pick up the pace.

I do think we need another key forward to join Dawes and Hogan next year, if only because you have to account for injuries. It's left us very vulnerable this year and basically meant Roos has had to compromise his ideal game plan until he has the necessary players to pull it off.

I'm not sure another KPF is required if Hogan comes good and Dawes remains competitive but hits the scoreboard a little more regularly. For me the void seems to have been created by Howe's move into defence. I think it was fairly widely accepted that Howe would be that third forward to bob up and kick a few here and there and maybe one day become a Bruest or Gunston type. Maybe he still has that ability and potentially under Roos he will provide. At the moment though he's made the back half his home.

Stuie get off the internet and go to the outside world because everyone here clearly understands there is merit in the comment. It's bleeding obvious since Jamar came back in how much we rely on him FFS if he goes down we are in a spot of bother for a while again. Spencer and Gawn are not ready to lead our ruck division yet. Meth Coast have Sinclair, Lycett, waiting in the wings for Cox or Natanui, Freo have Sandilands, Clarke and Griffin playing well in the WAFL waiting to get his chance. That's just two sides with 3 players capable of leading a ruck division not to mention those they have waiting in the wings.

Back on topic in regard to a KPF or KPT young Tyler Keital from East Perth has stood up well for WA in their games so far, is a forward but can swing back and take marks floating across half back. Some good upside in this kid.

Salem will be a high quality mid, Tyson nearly is already, you'd think Viney is a lock to hit the elite bracket.

Nathan Jones is relatively young still. Also, I think Vince can play till he is at least 32.

I still remember Bernie dominating a SANFL game a couple years back and he is one of the more natural footballers I've seen.

Vince is pure football, I see no reason he cannot keep playing for another 5 years.

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
