No Bennell?

Speaking of pathetic posts... Do you even watch what he does off the ball? He chases as hard as anyone and this "attitude" problem of his is just crap. His kicking isn't the best but why not keep him in the team when he at least provides a tall forward with a bit of skill. Once he gets his confidence right his kicking will improve at AFL level and will be a good forward for us until someone else can fill that role.

Ease up

Thought Bell played pretty well, might be increased by when i met him tonight, a VERY nice bloke who was keen on talking footy to me!

What a stupid thing to say.

You can't Judge someone. With such Little game Experience.

I thought an editor would grasp which words need capitalization and which don't

Poor guy has suffered from everyone talking him up so much a few seasons ago

Some people take longer than others to make their mark, how many games has he played again? Why wouldn't you persist with him when hes the only full forward we have at the moment, he crashes the packs and gives a bit of structure to our forward line atleast. "does not bust his gut" is crap, he chases as hard as anyone else. I know hes not a long term option for us but he gives us something up there atleast

I think he gave up trying to chase when he started running backwards instead of forwards, my god is he slow

Bate - Worst tackler ever

Absolute crap, he chased hard all day but his kicking let him down. It's obviously a confidence issue as he tried to banana it from about 10 meters out. He has the skill to be a decent forward but just needs to get his confidence up a bit.

Give him a few more games.

Rubbish, I saw a few great hit outs of his go right down a Melbournes players throat

One of lifes great pleasures is reading the Collingwood forums after they lose a close one! (Those god damn umpires, am i right?!?!?!111)

Should play for Casey this week

Sucks about Strauss

Forward line looked much better with the Juice Man

And to think some jerk sitting behind me was calling him soft for not getting up after that hit

Err.. it was a Richmond player if you don't understand that...

That sucks, was looking forward to seeing Maric play

But if he did kick ten... I think the floodgates would open
