  1. It’s interesting listening to Max on the podcast (the one mentioned on Demonland) re the rucks. He said that Oscar was one of the hardest ruckman to play against and that Bris had the best 2nd & 3rd back up rucks in the comp. He didn’t think the loss of Oscar would be a huge difference..
  2. He didn’t choose us because ..firstly he wanted to play midfield and not the wing & secondly because he got ridiculous money which we didn’t offer. Ironically he had ended up playing half back for the Hawks & still getting massive &’s
  3. Maybe you need some ā€œhumble pieā€ to go with that sauce
  4. Maybe that article should also include how amazingly tech savvy boys & girls are at a very young age. Ginni should have posted his comments to Grundy privately but he chose (again) to make it all about him. You have Hinkley pulling Hore Francis off in a game when he was carrying on ..Adelaide dumping a player for being disrespectful but we’re all supposed to laud this Gen Z team of young Hawks and their disrespect. Tell me when Watson (refuse to call him the Wizard) or Ginini acknowledge their own players before they go to the crowd. Hinkley has been around footy a long time ..I believe his remark was probably quite calculated…he got on the front foot straight away at his Press Conference & whether you agree or not …90% of non Hawks supporters would have loved it. Was it right ..no …but I still loved it.
  5. So what …good on him for standing up for Ginnivan? ..is it ok for a Ginnivan to be a ā€œme meā€ player and dish it out but he certainly doesn’t take it. Probably shouldn’t have been the oppo coach but so glad someone gave it back to him !
  6. I think telling Ginnivan ā€œhe won’t be flying ā€œ …
  7. Deestar9 replied to rpfc's topic in Melbourne Demons
    Haven’t got time & can’t be bothered (need to close this thread) but would you like to list all the issues that occurred at Collingwood whilst Pendles was Captain…no..wouldn’t think so
  8. And we look at our leader ..Max Gawn.. The Goat .. & it puts all the negativity about our club in perspective. You don’t get players like Gawn..Viney ..Lever commit to our club if it’s the basket case a lot of you think it is.
  9. Wasn’t one of the wraps on Roffey her connection to govt which would help with our home base or am i misremembering
  10. I read Mark Robinson’s description of Kozzie’s actions on Friday night in The Tackle in the HS with some trepidation but to my surprise it was an extremely balanced & articulate statement. We absolutely must challenge this .
  11. 26 yr old …7 yrs older than Luker
  12. Drafted mid season…19 yrs …done already …really ???
  13. He’ll be one of those ā€œwise headsā€ around our younger players.. similar to what Clarko’s trying to get ā€¦šŸ˜³šŸ§
  14. I so hope everyone who can go ..goes. As I’m oft criticised for being an ā€œoptimistic supporter ā€œ and would go anyway …let me say that the feeling you get when you get a win that we’re not expected to get or been under the pump media wise (which seems to be most of this year) is just incredible. But win or lose ANB & BBB deserve a good send off so.. Go Dees
  15. Not sure ..maybe ask Neale why he wanted to leave Brisbane or why Dangerfield wanted to leave Adelaide or Kelly ..Geelong …could keep going .. Say it again ..Club is bigger than player ..
  16. Can you explain why it’s ok for DS to pile on the club for Max’s extension but you don’t think it’s ok for posters to pile on his ridiculous comments. There has been so much negativity lately and after a fantastic win & brilliant news re our Captain..its good to enjoy some positivity…
  17. Clarry played under duress & the rib injury would have been the final straw. Clarry was still better than anyone else we had and one of the main reasons the club kept playing him would have been for his mental health. Can you really imagine how he would have been in rehab for half the season. Don’t criticise the club as you have no idea of how the club & the player worked together to get him to where he was.
  18. Quite stupid comments…no team has the luxury of resting the many players that are running round with injuries. 2 come to mind in DeGoey & Curnow & then ..bringing Todd Marshall back ..Alex Pearce etc …the list goes on.
  19. Considering the rib injury would have been the hit from Sweet …so yes very painful FOR HIM
  20. Shame …your lack of perceptron is staggering. A person (def not a genuine supporter) whose mind is set one way & doesn’t want anything to sway it. ā˜¹ļø
  21. True.. was at the game.. I would say that even a Windsor would have got us over the line .,
  22. I believe we had 16,000 GWS and just under 18,000 tonight. Great game…couldn’t fault our endeavour. Our supporters are renowned for coming out of the ā€œwoodworkā€ā€¦ if we were contenders …would have been heaps more !! End of the day ..glad I went …
