thats why i've been thinking maybe a swap of the 2 of them, like for like mnm can try to fix Watts 'is name, & Roosy can try to instill some 'come on', in Yarran.

or a Kreuzer trade of some fashion. I think the guy will turn things around, so again its a sort of like for like.

I doubt the rumor, either Garlett or Yarran would've had to of leaked texts - why would they do that?

It doesn't benefit either of them to leak texts.

Texts leak: "others" sometimes access people's phones especially if the owner is a bit careless

First time he's suspended.

Chapman's a [censored].

Yarran probably hates losing and is sick of this Carlton slops. Doesn't change my opinion of him at all which is that he's exactly the type of linebreaker that we need.

to lazy for me 'George'...

 

Rory Sloan should be our main target, it will help if Adelaide fail this year. I know we had our chance to draft him, and apparently we told him we'd take him only to pass- but that was a different administration.

Also interesting to hear a week ago apparently he had a problem not being named Adelaide's captain. He had to be "smoothed over" has to be a chance to want out. If we can bring Sloan and another forward/relief ruckman into the fold, were flying!

we have to chase Sloane. no doubt. last year I wanted us to go after Tex, he's gone. also we need more run, Sloane would help in that area. So we should go early, & hard for Sloane.

It was a good shot by Yarran.

I wouldn't mind it if he could back it up with his football.

But it now stands out as an act of frustration.

If our club is interested in Yarran, IMO it would only be for a late pick.

Malthouse might just want to move him on. He would be frustrating to coach.

I've had a change of mind since some further reading. I see Kreuzer's issues are most likely not from his past Knee injury, or his feet, but more likely related to his running style since his early Hip issues that he had surgery for in his first year.

Sunday, 1 July 2012
Dr Peter Larkins says Blue Matthew Kreuzer will always be hampered by surgery he had when first recruited and is currently not fit enough to play in the ruck on a full time basis.

"I'd just like to remind people that he had surgery on his left hip and his right hip when he was recruited … which I thought was always going to limit how much he'd get out of a big body over the course of a 10-year career," Larkins said.

"Then he had a reconstruction of his left knee with some tendon out of his right knee. He had troubles in the reconstructed knee again last year and had surgery again on that to deal with some scar tissue.

"I've been watching him play and there's no doubt he's playing sore."

I don't think he will recover from the Hip problems.

Nice work by Yarran yesterday.

Chapman made an error of judgement.

And went down like a sack.

Nice left hook.

I'd like to see us chase Scott Selwood, I think he'd be fairly cheap and is still pretty young.

 

Yes Chapman has always been good at falling over, and kicking for goal though.

Also apparently i heard on D that he didn't want to come here so stiff.

Watching that i couldn't help but think that nobody has guard now and even though it was wrong it was still cleaner and classier than some of the sly stuff that goes around.

3 weeks. Same amount of time Trenners received for a perfect tackle on Dangersook.. Both actions deserved medals, not weeks out!


3 weeks is a joke.

What happened to all those "one punch" campaigns? The AFL not supporting them any more?

Weak by the tribunal, should have been 4 or 5.

They've got no idea what they're doing

Should've been more than 3. The only good to come out of this is that Chapman might finally pull his head in.

It was a face to face fight and Yarran landed one, didn't KO and probably didn't concuss, 3 weeks is fine with me.

Although Yarran probably wanted more.

I liked the comment on one of the Foxtel shows last night (can't remember whether it was league teams or afl360)... "Chapman should have got a week for going down so easily".

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
