We don't deserve a top up player at all. We knew the risk and now we deserve to pay the price. Time to upgrade Michie.

The photos i have seen of Dom at training he seems to have put fair bit of muscle mass?

Yes he is. Watched some of the GC games last night on Fox and while Martin has the pace he is very soft and a long way to go in terms of physicality. He shirked contests where even the commentators were critical of this side of his game.

Ahh yess Hawthorn.. the club where your captain can drink and drive and still be considered a great club, where young players are up for rape charge, where Dayle Garlett started his ice addiction.. Sick of these [censored] comparisons with a club thats got a putrid culture.

I see nothing in Jack Martin to suggest he'll be the A grader you say. Too skinny and outside that will join the Watts, Toumpas, O Rourke, Scully who were gun juniors but struggle to adapt to the physicality of the game and Martin is as soft as they come.

Sorry Pickett but you are clearly out of your depth on this one. Your digging yourself a deep hole here Byron.. If you are happy to accept that our development and welfare officer goes out and gets on the [censored] with the boys all the time then im sorry but that doesn't exactly scream professionalismfrom Byrnes. I am currently working in the youth and welfare department and i can absolutely say that majority of men that come in feel more confident in opening up and sharing personal information to woman then men. There is still too much of that horrendous 'boys club' culture in australia that males just females are much more easier to talk to. I see Michelle Cowan doing exactly this for our club and as supporters we should feel extremely blessed to have her credentials and experience she will provide for our young players. Lets not forget the 'mother figure' she'll provide for our young kids who have had to move out of home to join our club. A female in this department is massive win for us.

This is huge! Great appointments and having seen Michelle Cowan coach she is an intense and driven individual. Welcome ladies!

The guy is a Phuckwit

This makes me think we possibly have a VFL/SANFL/WAFL player in our sights but who knows.

Agree on both fronts. Personally i love him down back but there is something about his raw power and speed that i find intriguing and would love to see him become an X factor up forward. Ps I was also not having a dig at you guys in Moonie Dc and Bitter. If that came out the wrong way my apologies.

Where have i personally attack you to the point where i am put in the same category as those guys? I have not used any so called 'demonland logic' at all. I have used the logic of 'My personal opinion' in stating why Pedersen is a much better forward structure to us then Dawes. Again stop trying to speak personally for me and say i am using a demonland logic when CLEARLY i am not.

Oh gawd.. 'pedo must be a star' again NO ONE has mentioned this at all. Your doing what you do best and thats put words into peoples mouths. Of course they are not world beaters but Pedersen impacts games better then Dawes and i personally think he is a better option right next to Hogan. I don't give a [censored] if he has won a flag or been in a leadership group. Plenty of spuds have done that in the past. He is no different to them.

Good luck to Russian but he is paat2 it as an AFL player. Even at Casey he wasn't even dominating at all. Il back a fully fit and stronger Max Gawn come round 1.

Point out where i said 'Pedo has a better tank then Dawes' ? You made the statement of saying Pedersen never gets a kick in the 2nd half which means we are a man down. I then stated that this was complete and utter rubbish because Pedersen has contributed just as much in the 2nd half of games where he has kicked some crucial clutching goals and played out the games well. Dawes might have a better tank who knows? But he is simply next to useless and doesn't impact games like Pedo does. Now before you try and put words into my mouth i am not saying Pedersen is a very good player. Just that he is a much better forward prospect then Dawes.

Absolute rubbish. Go and watch Pedersen games against WB Hawthorn Port Adelaide and even Fremantle and you will see Pedersen play out the games well. To say that he goes missing in the 2nd half to the point where we are a man down is again absolute rubbish. He kicked 2 crucial goals against the doggies in the 2nd half that kept us in thw game.

Was a fan of Kent but my rating went up a gear when he absolutely rag doll some adelaide crow spud who tried to rough up Nathan Jones last year. #respect

Super effort georgiou!

Look who wrote the article..

Tom Mcdonald. All Australian

Saty do you have an inklingon who might replace Melksham off the rookie list?

Apparently was reported on channel 7 in perth that Cam is suffering from anxiety and has lost 9kg since last year.

Have intra club match dates been released yet? As a country boy i really hope they do it on a weekend.

I am no pro athlete but 4 years ago i did my finger actually 2 weeks before we finished up for our Xmas break. I was filthy as i had been training fairly hard and i also started new weights program. Over the break all i did was a mix of Cycling/Swimming and doing a running program at the local athletics oval. To my surprise i came back and finished 2nd in the 3km time trial and set a new PB for myself. Moral of the story is that there is no excuses for Garlett whatsoever. Plenty of high intensity cardio you can complete with a finger injury.

how was Weideman and Hulett?
