how about oscar's unwillingness to be physical? apart from that one tackle on darling, i haven't seen any physicality whatsoever, and additionally he seems to lack urgency when the ball is on the ground or he misjudges it and it flies past him.. its like his boots are full of cement. i have come to admire his coolness with ball in hand, but the above failings will be his undoing. he just doesn't have that 'killer instinct' that a defender needs.

the thing is he ISNT their captain.. not now. he's shown his hand. why would they want a bloke not giving his all and on board? they have little currency now.. different to hogan situation - we would love him to stay, but will accept an amazing deal to release him.

surely they wouldnt waste a top pick with a tall again?..

past first round yes.. but hell what else we got to do?! lol

good on him for sticking with it. not my fave by a long shot, but i admire his tenacity and how he's managed to add to his game with forward pressure and improved foot skills.

KELLY KELLY KELLY

'a bit' of arrogance?!... geez. he comes across as a real [censored] to me! don't want to see him in red & blue.. much rather kelly.

i'd love to see that! ha..

who?

this kid looks really impressive! sometimes you watch underage footage and have to use your imagination alot... not with him. he has got something doesn't he?..

true, true.. wonder why it was leaked. surely it's pretty common. geez if i had to do an interview with the herald sun i'd want to be paid for my time! ugh..

good on him.. i'd do the same

Say we do trade Hogan to Freo, who would Jason Taylor & the recruiting staff be eyeing off around pick 6/7? Personally, i don't think they take either of the King boys and a lot of the other kids reported to be around that point are from WA and SA.. Surely they'd be after some outside speed or a halfback-type for our midfield..especially if we manage to land Preuss and May.

i'd suggest the footy dept. would go after more guaranteed returns that that.

what are brayshaw's attributes? will he be a star like hogan? will the pick be a star like hogan??

i agree.. its like everyone thinks that andrew brayshaw is angus brayshaw. they aren't the same player. not sure why everyone keeps referring to him?! they are brothers yes. it'd be nice if they got to play together. but surely we'd be after the best player from freo.. and that would be cerra.

i was referring to tyson and smith out of the best 22 btw..

i like it..but i think lewis serves an important function with stability downback. not his biggest fan, but he has really good games and goes missing in others. think the club will still put him in best 22 anyway. love the weed. hopefully if he gets more consistenty (like late in the year) he will cause selectors problems... might be a battle between him and preuss. still not completely sold on preuss. seen him do amazing stuff, but could just be a big oaf runnin around not doing much. anyway, depthhhhh. and good for the pies and eagles games. liking smith and tyson out though.

nope!

excited to see him in the red and blue.. sounds like exactly what we need.

i'd be keen if i was still in amsterdam..moved on to the greek islands now though!

better bleach in syders..

yuck. hope bombers crash in the trade period. wanna see them down the ladder for another decade (at least).

and then there's always the people that treat everything as 'no big deal' & keep their mouths shut about [censored] up [censored] on the internet (almost stubbornly - no matter what it relates to).. if nev is ok with it, i am ok with it. but i wouldn't feel comfortable wearing a shirt that is designed by a beer company (there's numerous potential issues here), with nev being redrawn to be a bloody lord/pope or whatever that design is.. its pretty offensive.

succinct bin. and with that post your crystallised my feelings. i henceforth state i will never enter this bucket of turd again.
