  1. With ya on being hopeful he stays but if it's the Crows then they will be coughing up heaps in salary for him and I trust 1st round picks for us.
  2. Agree. Also whilst, IMO Petty is a good player he is not great and worth the farm just yet. Suss to injuries and it's better to have players that want to play for you than not and wanting to go home. If he goes and the Crows give us the farm then so be it and we go and top up where required, like a ruck, key forward and maybe a key back to cover May & Lever. It is what it is and let's all hope he helps to bring us a flag this year.
  3. Is the Casey Praccy game today? Trust we wil get reports if/when it is on. Cheers
  4. I would have thought that we also trained etc. in hot and humid weather so no excuses in my mind for the night. Both teams played in the same conditions and Swans were the better, more cleaner team. We missed so many marks under not much pressure. Saw Chandler drop 2/3 marks under minimal pressure. Been on this a while now but I would love a Guilden playing for us. His disposal over 50 metres is brilliant where our blokes couldn't hit the side of a barn. Goody needs to get over his love child's. Has to realise that the likes of Spargo and Chandler are just VFL players at best. No way should have Spargo played with no games under his belt. Had a bloke like Billings and put him as sub. His experience and smarts from the start would have been good. It's passed now but boy did we stuff up with Grundy . Played him a bit more along with Max including finals and it may have been the best ruck combination ever. Again Goody stuffed this up big time. Grundy gave Max a horrible hiding. Let JVR evolve. He is NOT a key forward yet. How many chances does Schack get. Just not up to AFL level. No heart. Pity as he was a 2 pick. Need to improve around 20% to have a chance next week.
  5. With you on this one Balls. If Paps gets up and about he can be very dangerous but also we need to keep Guilden quiet. He absolutely killed us in round 23 last year with about 100 possessions !!
  6. Our forward line are missing a few but I'm still bullish about those we will put out on the paddock. Also reckon Swannies backs are not that good. All depends on the mids. We win the pill and at least deliver it into the forwards a bit better than in the past we will win this.
  7. All good to keep having a go at the Schach attack and Tomo Werridee but try and be positive every now and again. Maybe they are our best alternatives at present and we need/have to run with them unless you have a better plan? alternative at the moment.
  8. Concur with all the sentiments on here. He was a great player and is a great Dees man. As Pert mentioned I hope he stays with us in some capacity. Maybe an assistant to an assistant coach. Whatever he does going forward he will remain one of our favourite players and bloke. Take care Gus and trust you stay well and remain around the club.
  9. IMO there is no middle ground here. We either come together as one BIG unit or we fall away big time. Let's trust it is the former. Adversity can bring unity if all buy in. Time will tell.
  10. I'll be putting a few greenies on that!
  11. Whilst we have wasted the last 2 years we should have won more finals particularly last season. We proved we are as good ,if not better than all other sides. It's well documented what our issues were up forward. Gawn stays injury free, Oliver gets up and about sooner than later and with the newbies I believe we are well and truly right in the hunt again this season and next year. After that not to sure.
  12. Get him right and we will be there for the flag again.
  13. Agree he will most likely go end next season hence we need to get, and keep him fit this coming season and it will certainly put us in line for another flag.
  14. Gives us additional incentive to win the flag again in 24, 25 and 26.
  15. Maybe Chook we could also throw in a Davey.
  16. If he has the guts and determination of his old man then I will be very happy and will be a great addition to the Dees.
  17. Gee WCW will be disappointed at the ground. This is not good for the women and club in general. Maybe Goody should get out of the box.
  18. Reckon we have this one but next week will be tough.
  19. Yep and this is a BIG IF. If he can get fit and has a decent run at it I reckon he's a lock for best 22. Guy can play providing his body stands up. Good move by us.
  20. Reality check. Maybe we aren't as good as everyone thinks. Crows with big bodies and some classy players showing us up at the moment. Need to reverse this real quick or it could get ugly.
  21. You can have King, Wade, McKenna and Hudson in our forward line and still wouldn't kick a winning score. King just a youngster starting out whilst Wade had Goggin then Krakouers, Mckenna had Price etc hitting them up on the lead whilst Hudson had the whole forward line to himself. Until our current Mids learn to lower eyes and deliver correctly then no big name in our forward line will get us to the next premiership. Would prefer mids with elite disposal and awareness and stay with Petty JVR etc. Give me a Guilden like player and I'd be happy.
  22. I think Kent is taking the Mickey !!!
  23. And I do hope he had some stern words to himself for such a poor performance.
  24. I reckon we have 1-3 years left at the top with the current list and that's not counting on a few coming through from Casey plus McAdam and other new recruits. Basically plenty of kicking drills in the off season actually changing our style to lower eyes and kick to someone in a better position. To many times we have spare players all alone in the forward half and basically ignore them. Simple task to fix IMO but it seems no one at the club wants to do.
  25. Reckon it's ripe for the Lions taking. They should belt a banged up Blues and will beat Pies or Giants in GF.
