TGR 1,367 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Hope he plays again. Definitely a top 10-15 player still at most clubs in my book.

dpositive 1,838 Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I would like to think that our contribution in defraying Essendon impact by taking Mikshake and gifting them a 2nd rnd pick is sufficient donation in the AFL "ensure the competition continues" game to allow us exemption from any predatory moves from Essendon.
John Demonic 5,992 Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Should we have given him one more year? His kicking and possession out of half back would have been pretty valuable this year, but I guess we could not have foresaw the injuries to Lamumba and Salem (which is clearly the answer to my own question)

Clearly never saw him play....
Wiseblood 24,637 Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 With Cross there it may not have given a chance to someone like Hunt. Loved his time at the club, but we made the right decision.
jumbo returns 6,745 Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Best runner Best trainer Great role model for the young 'uns in terms of elite fitness and application Fin PS His chip over the top to Salem for the winning goal was a beautiful kick
Forest Demon 4,681 Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I wanted him to stay another year. But with Hunt and Wagner getting opportunities and doing well, it was definitely the right choice.
Je Roos Salem 661 Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 I find it funny how Cross was given such a reception last year like we'd never see him again and now he's hidden in plain sight as a runner. Surely he still gets an urge to intercept a mark at half back when delivering messages to players

Careful mate, Saty has just ridden in to remind you that you didn't play AFL, therefore you couldn't know a thing about it... better retract your statement, and fast!

Here il make it you easier for you and explain in real simple terms Pauline Henson. I loved and admired Crossy for what he did and was one who disagreed with the decision to let him go at the time. But while he was still winning alot of the footy his penetration in his kicking was decreasing and was struggling to hit targets. And do you know whats even funny Satyriconhome? Crossy even admited this when i had a beer with him after playing against him this year at Albury. He now knows that he would have only taken a spot that maybe a Wagner or Hunt are playing now. We spoke about things but as he said then, in hindsight the club made the right decision. Now was that too hard for you? Who am i kidding, you'll come back with some pathetic response like he always do.

Players would cringe and take the [censored] out him. As the old saying goes.. 'Every club has one'.

Try not to type too fast you make mistakes I thought you said whatever the players say to supporters when they ask questions is not to be believed, or is that not the case for you? It is your opinion, the role he was playing didn't require him to do a lot of kicking, his role was to float around pissing on fires which he did exceptionally well I also had a chat to him at the start of pre season It is always you that has to denigrate, either players or posters, ever though the issue may be you, probably not, couldn't see through the narcissistic haze

Thought you might pop up and misinterpret what I said, whilst you have some backup of course, anybody can talk to a player, I just don't denigrate, if you denigrate then the player would be right to have an unfavourable opinion of you, if you discuss with them, they discuss, but as I have said, any answer from a player to a supporter is not to be believed surely?
