They'll come next week. -
N.Jones - 30+ mostly hard fought possessions , and you gave 6 players votes before him ?????
-
6 - N.Jones ( by a street ) 5 - Cross ( slow, but makes up for it with nous) 4 - Vince ( for weight of possessions ) 3 - Tyson ( plenty of possessions but has become soooo slow to move the ball on ) 2 - Dunn ( for trying and taking the game on ) 1 - Bail ( for trying and taking the game on )
-
N.Jones - carbon copy game Salem - had little impact Watts - nothing of note Dawes - waste of space Viney - disposal was amateurish Frawley - tried but failed Tyson - rarely hurt opposition Dunn - performed task admirably Kent - was rarely sighted Cross - professional tagging role Garland - excellent until injured Pedersen - made little impression Michie - rarely hurt opposition Vince - prolific and cared McDonald - loose and erratic Gawn - little to commend Howe - lazy and loose Jamar - end of era Bail - tried but limited M.Jones - has no tricks Fitzpatrick - 2 minute game Jetta - slow and loose
-
Good luck in your endeavours
-
I've been sleepless over our performances since 1965.. Roos should consider himself lucky
-
The sad thing is that all of these attempts at selecting a viable 2015 team reek of same old same old.. we're doomed for 10 years if we're relying on the likes of Dawse, Garland, Watts , Grimes,, Howe , and others to suddenly become consistent and effective footballers . We've seen years and years of the same rubbish from the same people ,to know that they're not EVER going to be up to it!
-
6 - N.Jones ( cared and tried to make a difference) 5 - Gawn ( was almost unsighted , but less than most others ) 4 - Jetta ( was slow , and loose , but he gave a damn ) 3 - Dunn ( the ONLY player in our team who could hit a target) 2 - Vince ( for his first quarter ) 1 - Tyson ( for lots of possessions , though most were irrelevant)
-
N.Jones - never stopped trying Grimes - unsighted until injured Salem - miles from ready Watts - embarrassing and insipid Dawes - probably not awake Viney - horrible decision making Frawley - scared off suitors Tyson - prolific not effective Dunn - played with professionalism Kent - disposal from hell Cross - age has wearied Garland - was barely interested Michie - little to commend Vince - one great quarter McDonald - some dumb decisions Riley - tried but irrelevant Barry - little to commend Gawn - showed some skills Howe - arrogant and lazy Jamar - time has passed M.Jones - was barely noticed Jetta - loose and slow
-
Heard him being interviewed on SEN this evening and completely changed my opinion of him. He spoke glowingly of his time at the club , even lovingly. He bore no malice towards anyone, even Neeld, and was extremely gracious and modest about his achievements in the AFL . He went out with class, in my opinion
-
6 - Jetta ( great reinvention) 5 - Gawn ( at least he gave us some hope ) 4 - Tyson ( prolific , though rarely used his possessions to advantage ) 3 - Howe ( classy and smart , but was very loose ) 2 - Riley ( showed dash and aggression) 1 - Jamar ( palmed well , usually to advantage )
-
N.Jones- had little impact Watts - relevant no longer Dawes - tried without impacting Viney - failed to impose Frawley - going through motions Tyson - prolific , not damaging Dunn - just a game Kent - was rarely sighted Cross - professional as expected Garland - was hardly noticed Michie - a Casey performance Kennedy - Harris - just a kid McDonald - amateur against professional Riley - effective when subbed Barry - some hurried efforts Gawn - one promising light Howe - loose but classy Jamar - probably broke even Bail - continued poor form M.Jones - little to commend Jetta - brave and relentless Vince - few worthwhile possessions
-
Firstly, they were never my words.. I only suggested that he may not be the Messiah
-
If you want to get personal then perhaps you should just open up Uranus and hop in
-
Add to the list that perhaps Roos isn't the Messiah after all. Looking closely at who on our list has actually improved under him: Dunn, definitely Pedersen , certainly McDonald , arguably Jetta, yep That's it.
-
6 - Howe ( excellent disposal , regularly broke the lines ) 5 - McDonald ( was the mainstay of defence and was rarely beaten 1 on 1 ) 4 - Jetta ( easily beat his opponent but his disposal was erratic ) 3 - Jones ( prolific, but ignored first options , at the team's expense) 2 - Tyson ( read comments for Jones) 1 - Dunn ( rarely made an error )
-
Jones - ignored first options Watts - abysmal and embarrassing Dawes - not on field Viney - lost in transit Frawley - missing second half Tyson - horribly wasteful disposal McKenzie - competition's worst disposalist Dunn - persisted,unlike others Garland - was rarely sighted Pedersen - was rarely sighted Vince - uncharacteristically wasteful disposal Kennedy - Harris - fumbled his chances McDonald - outstanding all game Riley - no genuine skill Tapscott - little before injury Howe - easily our best Jamar - only broke even Bail - played little part Terlich - worst decision maker Jetta - tried but limited Kent - occasionally showed potential Blease- nothing to like
-
N.Jones - a major player Grimes - never imbued confidence Watts - one brilliant quarter Dawes - had little impact Viney - take first options!!! Frawley - provided forward presence Tyson - back to prolific McKenzie - performed task successfully Dunn - continued outstanding season Kent - just needs confidence Blease - just a cameo Garland - outstanding all game Pedersen - is obviously tiring Vince - an angry game Kennedy- Harris - occasionally looked dangerous McDonald - confident and important Riley - just lacks class Tapscott - the battering ram Howe - classy but inconsistent Jamar - lionhearted all game Bail - provided good run Jetta - read game beautifully
-
6 - McDonald ( looked as if he cared, and at least broke even ) 5 - Viney ( just a terrier who never stops ) 4 - Riley ( had some useful clearances and showed some dash) 3 - N.Jones ( never stopped trying , but was held ) 2 - Pedersen ( I'm not sure why) 1 - McKenzie ( for limiting Selwood's output)
-
N.Jones- just did enough Grimes- little to commend Watts - irrelevant and insipid Dawes - tried but ineffective Viney - played with heart Frawley - rarely exerted himself Tyson - no repeat efforts McKenzie - praiseworthy but limited Dunn - ineffective both ends Kent - rarely made position Garland - was rarely sighted Pedersen - tried but ineffective Vince - performance mirrored haircut McDonald - great under pressure Riley - showed some endeavour Tapscott - career ending performance Howe - five minute performance Bail - probably wasn't playing M.Jones - was rarely noticed Terlich - had no impact Jetta - quiet before subbed
-
Add Jobe Watson to that list .Every second word is 'ahh' .. so bloody irritating!!
-
6 - McDonald ( made mistakes , but played with passion and purpose ) 5 - M.Jones ( prolific possessions though he rarely hurt the opposition) 4 - Dunn ( continued to try , and at least broke even with opponent ) 3 - Vince ( quiet until last quarter , but at least kept trying) 2 - Kent ( kept presenting) 1 - Viney ( tried , but his disposal is amateurish )
-
N.Jones - seemingly lost interest Grimes - mistake riddled performance Salem - nowhere near ready Watts - embarrassing and insipid Dawes - tried but poor Viney - tried but lacking Frawley - going through motions Tyson - played without passion McKenzie - determined but limited Dunn - seemed to care Kent - some occasional impact Garland - poor decision making Pedersen - had no influence Vince - succumbed to tagger McDonald - successful against odds Barry - looked totally lost Gawn - a dumb footballer Howe - probably wasn't playing Jamar - possibly broke even Bail - costly skill errors M.Jones - couldn't hurt opposition Terlich - brave but dumb
-
6 - Jamar ( dominated the centre , and was our best forward ) 5 - Howe ( played with class and skill ) 4 - Viney ( unusual but effective tagging game ) 3 - Grimes ( reasonably safe and constructive ) 2 - Vince ( great second half ) 1 - Gawn ( great 20 minutes .. I'm struggling )
-
N.Jones - never found rhythm Grimes - excellent all game Salem - a schoolboy footballer Watts - classy but flawed Dawes - disappointingly little influence Viney - excellent tagging game Frawley - succumbed when pressured Tyson - few clear possessions Dunn - surprisingly poor disposal Kent - probably wasn't playing Garland - career worst game Pederson - great first half Vince - great second half Nicholson - crap , as expected Barry - had little impact Gawn - couldn't assert himself Howe - most effective defender Jamar - clearly our best Bail - couldn't justify selection M.Jones - was he playing? Terlich - poor before injury Jetta - useful both ends
