Clark pinged a hammy in his last week of training.

You are delusional then if you don't think he has had a full on busy year.

Yeah because he has done sweet FA all year you know, the travelling from Sydney to Melbourne every week for Fox and then non stop working his backside off since becoming our coach. Fair Dinkum the guy has had No family time probably all year due to his commitments, and all he ask is a bit of extra weeks holiday to soak up as much family time as possible before he embarks in one of the games biggest challenges I turning this club around. Write an email to Roosy and tell him what you really think. Im sure he will whole heartily agree with you... Not!

Yep 3km time trial. Roos wont be there for atleast a week and a half im pretty sure. On a holiday trip with his family to Africa im pretty sure..

Rory Taggert is playing for Sturt in the SANFL aswell.. Not sure about Nathan Stark if he is back at Glenelg. Its amazing where Jordan Gysberts football journey has now resulted in playing suburban league.. Came to Melbourne at pick 9, 26 disposals debut against the cats and, Told to work harder, didn't listen and now look where he is. Some blokes are just not cut for AFL. Brad Green was spot on when he made a comment after he retired that too many players on our list relied only on talent to get them through.. Takes more then just talent.

Mclean, Bate, Jones, Sylvia, Bell... after that night i thought these guys were our future to lead us forward.. I really thought Mclean was going to be a genuine superstar. Travis Johnstone is right up there with Davey as one of the best kicks i have ever seen. I do miss the Daniher years.

Just on Ollie Wines, Jack Viney and his missus spent new years with Ollie and his mates in Echuca. Im hoping Jack was biting Wines ear off in crossing over the border..

Anyone have any footage to the SS approach on Dipper?

Two words for 2013.. FK OFF!

Colin Sylvia.. Didnt he belt his ex one night??

RIP broady.. that last Essendon game where he absolutely pansted hirdd was a favourite of mine. It was his best AFL game he played.

So where is Neeld at these says. I must admit i feel for him a bit. Was very confident in getting another assistant coaching gig but looks like he wilk have to look at a VFA gig...

Col was at the back end of their 3km time trail.Wouldnt be a good look especially under Lyon.

Cmon you blokes upstairs, bring back the LIKE button!

I really thought it was the end of the world.

Neeld should never have dropped him after that round 1 incident.. completely sapped all his confidence for the year. NC could have dropped toumpas after that Brissy game but stuck fat and gave the kid more confidence and he played out the year well.

Bit like yourself

I seriously reckon anyone does anymore.

Now your talking! Canadian Club is one of the top Whiskys going around!

I don't give a [censored] about Rising star nominations. And your obsessions of getting defensive with players is seriously getting beyond the joke Saty And of course I have seen him play live and he looked brilliant and will be a star! But we will have still deal with scrutiny of Freo and West Coast knocking on his door all the time especially with Freo in need of key forwards with Pav nearly gone. I really do hope he signs that 5 year deal soon..

Thanks DS! Interesting with JKH he seems to be the Draftee that's standing out the most with his training. Been hearing nothing but real positives and good reports. Could be a steal!

I can see what your saying but as you pointed out, Clark and Dawes so far have been injury prone and hardly have played. We gave up pick 12 for Clark and pick 20 for Dawes. On Hogan its too early to say. Hasn't played an AFL game yet even though he has showed real talent at VFL level the step up from that league to AFL level is HUGE. We did give up pick 3 for him which would have nabbed us Ollie Wines. Wines, Viney and Toumpas would have been a pretty handy onball unit as well. Unfortunately the negatives far outweighs the positives with Neeld. The problem was Mclardy, Schwab and Lyon told Neeld to give the boys a good kick up the ass when he was appointed, which wasn't Neelds caliber. He tried to be someone he wasn't and that gets shown out big time to players. Why would players listern to a bloke trying to be a hardass when he was a [censored] as a player.

You seem to keep pumping up a bloke that didnt even get a snippet of a mention during the draft period. Are you sure your not him?

Anyways back on topic.. Good to hear Roosy has been impressed about our boys so far this summer. Players seem to respect and that can take you a long way just ask the Port boys with Ken Hinkley. The boys there absolutely love him go out there to bust a nut for that bloke.
