the only reason i would want alwyn at the club would be if it was the only way to get aaron to stay, then it would be money well spent... apart from that we already have enough of his type who have shown more with a lot more potential
no thanks, too expensive because saints wont delist him but even if they did we already have mclean, jones, moloney, valenti who are in and under and slow with limited kicking ability
We got pick 14 for trav which we used on grimes... trav had gone to brisbane and barely played a good game and we have a future captin, you're right that was stupid.
Jolly left cause he wanted to be a No.1 ruckman and we had jeff white, not an ideal situation to let him go but the obvious choice at the time.
Robbo got dropped for his efforts last week which it was widely agreed to be the right decision...
From players i remember seeing:
Lyon
Viney
Stynes
Schwartz
Neitz
Jacko just didnt play enough unfortunately, but i have no doubts he would be top 2 injuries aside
I read that this morning, im not sure what it is about the articles but i really like them. Perhaps its because, for once, they are semi positive about the football club. His anicdotal stories are very amusing also.
i think he is soft, you can say he is skinny, doesnt have enough muscle etc etc. but the fact is by running out onto the field he needs to be willing to put his body on the line. His inability to look at the ball, instead the player, when running back with the flight of the ball is infuriating! See the play leading up to McLeod's goal tonight.
And, even when in space he turns the ball over far too often... kicking it over players heads or grubbing it 5m infront of them, and often they are simple 25-30m passes.
I must admit i was very iffy about Frawley when we selected him and i hadn't seen much previous to this year to get excited about but he has come on leaps and bounds this year. Congratulations to him and may his improvement continue.
? = morton!
he was absolutley horrid today!! Soft and needs serious work on his basic skills...
Granted he wasnt alone in being soft but some of his efforts today made me sick! Needs a spell at casey to get his head right
Unfortunately i have to work all of today as is the life of a uni student so can't attend the game.
Just want to wish all going a great day and hopefully you are all twice as loud to make up for my absence!!
GO DEES!!
