  1. Jesus...
  2. Premiership winning coach for the Giants reserves in the NEAFL and is currently works with their forwards as well. I know internally he was highly rated by Roos and was disappointed in losing him to the Giants. Very much respected within Giants circles and is doing a fine apprenticeship under Cameron so far. He'll never come back to his family, but he's someone that's doing a decent job up there.
  3. I remember Hunt was talked about as one of the best up and coming young half backs in the game. It's either defence or flop for Hunt.
  4. There is only 2 past people id happily have at the back and that's Adam Yze and Brad Miller.
  5. Lyon, Connelly, Stynes, Healey, Schwab, Viney. All at one stage were working within the club. We won't need to be reminded what that lead too. None of our former greats have never tasted success. Why bring in former players that have been part of the problem all these years. Never did I see Hawthorn or Brisbane in their golden era made up of people from within their club. They went out and recruited the best people they thought could influence the standards and culture of their club. Just go out and recruit the best person that fits the bill. Paul Roos and Peter Jackson were exactly that.

    Yes
  7. This is taking the [censored] now. Goodwin was stubborn and arrogant is not willingly let Frost stay at the club. He put all his eggs in the Lever and May basket and that's now looking like a blunder and a half. Meanwhile we have 700k defender who doesn't even actually defend and rather skirt packs and point the finger at someone else for his own [censored] up (see On The Couch vision) One of the greatest coach in the modern era saw something in Frosty and took him on board. That says something and that's enough for me. I'll take Clarko's opinion on Frost over yours.
  8. Blame can't be solely on mids here mate. It's the same personal of midfielder's that were running around back in 2018.
  9. So looking at the Oppo Score per inside 50 stat we ranked 9th back in the competition with Frost and Omac as our main two key pillars down back. So realistically i look at that and go its not that bad actually. We then go all out and spend big on Steven May only to see us actually rated 3rd last in the competition for this year on the big of just letting Sam Frost. How does that even happen?
  10. I watched the whole lot. Everything they said was absolutely spot on. Some daming vision of Viney, Oliver Lever and Langdon. These are senior players who are suppose to be leading the way. Viney was the worse one out of that lot.
  11. Saw some daming footage of Levers lazy effort on the weekend from On The Couch. Wowee, if you want to make a statement, then dropping this bloke would be my first option. It won't happen, but this bloke is a true definition of what Ox said today, and that just a bloke who only came to this club on a decent fat contract only.
  12. For a muscle bound wingman, he's incredibly soft. I'd be putting in the time into Oskar Baker instead.
  13. He doesn't know what he's talking about. That's stock standard Olisik though.
  14. He needs to come in for Melskahm. Melky is one of Goody's mates, so it'll most likely never happen.
  15. Garry and Tim did a bit of an analysis on the club this morning. Please listen to the link below everything they have said pretty much sums it up and are spot on. Garry did hit the nail on the head when he said that Melbourne supporters aren't frustrated, but more so just gutted now. Reading some of the comments on here, I get that same general feeling also. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2020/07/05/melbourne-supporters-gutted-by-teams-inability-to-kick-lyon/
  16. Thanks mate. All the best to you and your pregnant wife mate. Enjoy that special journey with her. Before you know it, your little bundle of joy is here! And you're right mate, can only focus on the positives. The great perspective I've had is my first born son who was born November last year. Having kids just changes your whole new outlook on life. Everything I do is now fully on him and my family.
  17. Derm has his say. https://coupler.foxsports.com.au/api/v1/article/amp/afl/afl-2020-melbourne-loss-to-richmond-dermott-brereton-on-fox-footy-the-first-crack/news-story/3b4c413869d50ad8be639aca2bc5f81f?__twitter_impression=true
  18. Yeah look i am ready to pack it i to be honest. Not just the Dee's, but AFL in general. I got howled down on here back in March by the likes drysdale demon for refusing to buy a membership due to financial strain, and my brother battling cancer. We've had to do so many round trips each week to Melbourne from Albury just to see him. Now we are barred from seeing him unfortunately. This is on top of my Mrs losing her job over covid and trying to support a young 7 month old as well. I eventually bought a membership just to at least have some form of hope but also give back to the club during the difficult time. A part of me wishes I didn't buy a membership now... I'm beginning to lose interest in the game itself. I have other new hobbies that I'd like to invest more time and money into just to keep me sane. Bit sad to read all the comments to be honest. I only post on here because we are like one big family. We argue, we laugh, and we all love this club. But it's getting to the point where you do ask we'll we ever see success. I've always been someone to at least have some hope, but even now it's just slowly fading away. I personally also think footy will never be the same again.. the world itself will not be the same also. It scares me to think where will be in 5 years time.
  19. We weren't going to take Kelly. We had Billings as our pick had we kept pick 2.
  20. You need to stop quoting him. I'm sick of trolling through his rubbish just to read a decent post.
  21. Viney is a free agent this year. Bayley Frietch is also out of contract. Some big decisions looming. No 1st round draft pick. North i quietly rubbing their hands.
  22. Did I say we lost because of Lever??
  23. Its all about the intercepts remember?
  24. You simply don't get it. I am not surprised really.
  25. Or maybe our list is actually just overrated.
