  1. Just gotta win some centre clearances.
  2. Woo hoo. Just when I think I'm out they drag me back in.
  3. Kicking Straight. Yippee.
  4. Same old hospital handballs.
  5. Gee Grundy has soft hands. Needs to mark those.
  6. What annoys me is Broad's headband from the Eighties.
  7. This from Stuart Broad........"That's all you'll ever be remembered for," he told Carey. Doesn't get any more ironic. UP there with Bill Gates writing a book about solving climate change .
  8. Has he made it back?
  9. Can't afford JV off the ball with Oliver out and Trac can't kick goals. Not sure we can cover Petty moving fwd although we certainly need another tall there.
  10. I really don't understand Melksham instead of Jvr. Yes Milk may be a closer fit to Fritta but Jvr in the dry would be better.
  11. The forward line has Bbb who has barely played. Spargo who was recently dropped. Anb who is out of form. Melksham who like Bbb has barely played and didn't do much last week. But for some strange reason I think we will win. Hard to be too excited though with our recent form and injuries. Wish Jvr was playing. At least it will be dry.
  12. It's a fair call. Max is often a great barometer of a game. When he's doing ok to well, we often are. His season this year mirrors pretty much the teams. He missed a lot of footy with his injury but that's no longer an excuse. In any case we have had a lot of players play well below their best this year. Even with a suspect fwd line we still beat the pies. We have the ability and talent still. But we seem to lack the hunger at times. Oliver in and we may have quite easily had another two wins. Fritta out now is a huge loss. I don't think we will finish top four .
  13. Not having a crack at you Bfa , but do we know for sure that this is even true?
  14. I doubt it's true but if ai were Tommo, I reckon I'd be annoyed for being dropped.
  15. While I don't agree with our selections, Im glad that Chandler was dropped .Kozzie should be on notice as well.
  16. One of the biggest disappointments for me this year is the Grundy/ gawn combo. Both average just over half a goal a game.
  17. Don't you remember that we tried the Petty experience playing forward? Unfortunately it finally worked so we had to move him back in defence and relegate an in form Tommo to the Magoo's.
  18. Im not sure if Melksham is up to it. Played a two minute cameo in just over 3 quarters. Then wasn't really involved. Surely Jvr would have been a much better inclusion. I get Smith didn't perform but it's not like we are overloaded with talls. I'm guessing Smith or Tommo as the sub in case our only tall in Bbb goes down. But I don't think Tommo has been included in the emergencies.Heaven help us if Bbb goes down. Here's an idea put Tommo in and let Petty play fwd. Oh wait. What a wasted experiment that was. Just when it started to work it got thrown in the bin. Brilliant. Why try it on the first place if after it finally gelled you were going to just shelf it? Goodwin has gone from inflexible to illogical. I think in dropping Smith and ignoring Jvr, we may have lost this one at the selection stage. Oh and yeah, let's put a woefully out of form Anb up fwd to bolster our dysfunctional forward line .
  19. Max is having a rough season. Love the bloke. Great person. Great footballer. But it's hard to maintain that 21 momentum and skill. I think perhaps last year was the real chance. Our fwd line problems started towards the end of it and have continued to this day. Also we have had a plethora of injuries this year compared to the last two. The pies win and start to the round show we can be very competitive but I also think the six interstate games have taken a toll as well. Having said that we outperformed gws in every metric except tackles. I don't know what to make of this team.
