Rivers looks very good, Jackson has wow factor!

I agree Gonzo - Farmer, Schwarz and Jakovich were special. Looking back though I feel like I took Neitz in particular for granted. He was an out and out star of the competition. I'm from Perth so don't get to that many games in Melbourne but remember going to Docklands and watching him Kick 8 against carlton...he was completely dominant. Also Round 1 (cant remember what year) when he hip and shouldered Luke McCabe from the hawks (destroying McCabe's shoulder) and following up with the goal. Not many players can claim All Australian honours in two different key positions. Champion player, champion bloke!

Neitz, Stynes, then Lyon

A reminder of how good Mitch is...the greatest live football moment of my life!

That is a very good point. I have tickets to next week’s game but would rather not go and get the W

Essendon...they are a putrid club

I disagree...is that allowed? Not sure why you put me down/ attacked me after voicing my view which is a differing opinion to yours. See your above definition of troll...it’s a perfect fit

My comment was I thought Spargo had a better game than Bedford. Read it however you like though champ

My point was I thought Spargo played a better game than Bedford. No worries though mate, you clearly have much more knowledge than anyone else on here and make a point of stating that at every opportunity...apologies for having an opinion on an opinion site. Care to name the round 1 team for us? Or will you will go with the old line that you will keep it to yourself because you are trusted by the club with info that you can’t give to others?

OMac is a defender and was excellent in the defensive system tonight

Just finished watching the replay but 100% disagree. Spargo played inside the system and with skill. Bedford’s goal assist was him going for goal that dropped short. I thought Spargo was very good

This is 100% correct. Those that say he is no good with ball in hand have OMac confused with another of our players. It is simply untrue

I am not sure why you panic when he has ball in hand. His kicking is actually very good, one of the best we have

Thank Demonland

Does anyone have an update on Petty? I believe he was injured/ in rehab a while ago but I think he will be a very important player for us this year. I rate him extremely highly and think his value is even greater considering a likely delayed start for May

Thanks what

Does anyone know if Petty has been training with the backs or the forwards? Or maybe they are not split into groups yet?

How great was the finish by Trappa

Thanks. Inconsistency by foot doesn't sound great

How good is Caldwell? I don’t know anything about him. Is he quick, good foot skills?

This! I think O’Brien would be a very good get

Tim OBrien? He was mentioned as possibly get able on trace radio...take it with a grain of salt I guess

Langdon will be a very good addition

I think we are still a pretty big chance. If Brisbane is a done deal why has it not been announced already

Sorry DD but I just really struggle to take the bloke seriously
