  1. Get Watts back Beg him to come back and that all is forgiven. Make him the kicking to position coach, Make him help Petracca adjust his kicking for goal coach. He would give confidence to the Weid him being there. However it is all impossible. HALF JOKING However l wonder.
  2. I have liked many of your posts but sometimes l have scratched my head with you being ruthless with a player because he does not satisfy your liking for the way he plays. I don't think you mean it sometimes. He has his faults but his football this year has been more consistent without hitting the scoreboard with the so called goals. Petrac has held his own and is well entrenched in our best 22. IMO he will get better and if traded what makes you so sure the he will be the equal or better. The chances are they won't be better. And for the kids sake he Petrac probably needs a break or rest like some we are carrying at the minute. He can play better footy because he has the potential however depends what you and others think what his best footy looks like.
  3. The umpire in question is Dalgleish, dumb umpiring and no feel for the game. A Western Australian who supports the Eagles. You may remember we had him and Margetts ( another WA boy) against the Eagles on their turf this year. Hope we don't get them this week against the Eagles.
  4. I have read your OP and l can understand your reasoning. In my opinion, Gus is a valuable asset and Whitfield l would say is out of our reach and that goes for many other clubs as well. Lever May and Whitfield and a host of our mains stayers we might be juggling with the salary cap so to speak.
  5. Trade GUS! I don't think so. He has the yips however he will need to regroup like many of our personnel in the side and kickstart after another preseason and be prepared mentally for 2020. Gus is a professional and at the top of his game is a key weapon in the midfield. Gus was injured today and most likely had to run out a corky in the butt and he was on the ground for a good 20 seconds. Maybe he needs a spell. Why would you want to trade him ? Who would you get ? Is he going to be a better pickup? NOT LIKELY. Bring this thread to the fore in 2020 if you need to. Lets wait and see what happens.
  6. Gawn must be disgruntled with his performance in the ruck today. He gave away 2 free kicks for blocking his opponent or was he blocking the umpires view? You blind MAGGOT! NO. 7 Umpire I don't think he knew himself. One of your decisions cost us a goal. Umpire Dalgleish from WA. We don't want you for next weeks game against the Weasels! You blind BAT!
  7. The muppet of ??? says trade is for Two 1st rounders and Two of Their best players for a Clarry who would win their next 10 B&F's. NO NO NO! you can't have Clarry. Look somewhere else. Would GOD go to the G Coast ?
  8. 3 rotations down in the last Quarter and to trail for the first time after being as much as 38 points up 20 odd minutes in and it looked as though we were dead and buried. We found something and scratched away picked ourselves up and fought back as it was an amazing last 5 mins. To see the faces of the devastated Blues supporters was something. That could easily have been me and worse.
  9. How important was Preuss in the ruck 44 HO 14 poss 5 marks a great replacement for Gawn. How good to have both of them playing together ? With Preuss's performance today he might have cemented a spot in the side for a number of weeks ahead. Goody would have been rapt with his performance as he outpointed Kreuzer.
  10. S May is a very good player however say it once whatever there was to say and don't harp on it. It wasn't a good look IMO and it is that, an opinion. I would not want to be belittled by a mistake that was made and be told off for it by my team mate. Goody says it is healthy then ask Frosty as you can see he wasn't happy about words that were said to him. Frosty will still make mistakes as all players do as it is part of the game. S M take it out on the opposition however but make sure you don't get suspended for the upteenth time or it reflects badly on you.
  11. It has been that sort of year for us, just struggling to get some sort of game style going. No more excuses just play the one's who want to play for their football lives and who want to put the jumper on with pride. Just bring in Preuss and let him prove to you Goody that he can play the level. Another who is playing for his football life is JKH and now is a good time to prove himself to you as well as he has had consistent form for weeks. Have to keep positive for what it is worth and have to find some courage and some character for it has been missing for quite sometime. I think that l need to regroup for next week to watch us play the Blues.It's going to be hard to do but l will find a way by then.
  12. Do you want me to sit there all day and write you a book on Yze or were you being sarcastic? DERR!!!! What would you like to catch me out on? Better player playing HF and kicking goals. This is not a nit picking session, PLEASE ...
  13. Yep! BBP and we beat Carlton by almost 20 goals just for the record.
  14. Saw many games with Neita and the OOOOOOZ ! Neita would kick his 3 to 5 goals and have his 2 to 3 goal assists on many occasions and you could rely on him to be involved. He just knew where the goals were being a confident kick even from 50 metres out.Come to think of it how often he would kick a goal from set shots. IMO he played his best games on the forward line . Adem Yze a dangerous Half forward wingman type but loved a goal and kicked many in his time a reliable kick at that.However not overly quick but would bob up when the going was tough and make his presence felt. Would never had thought that they played so many games together. We could do with them both right now. Two Great Melbourne people. They were my best years.
  15. Sean Charles is missing traded to Carlton. Walk into this side! Serious wrist injury falling off a trail bike. He was never the same. Above footballer.
  16. That 50 metre penalty that Jonesy gave away after Lockhart was headbutted was worth it IMO and l know he Walters the thug felt it. To stand up for your team mate is the pinnacle . The other when Walters comes in to remonstrate running towards Viney and what a mistake that was lands [censored] over. However for that bruised all over two good knocks by the co captains. And the prize for his mishaps suspended for one week. Something to think about... Not a good week WALLY!
  17. I don't know where else on the ground that Oscar can play. His kicking to position is not precise most of the time playing on the forward line you need to use brains to out smart you oposite and pull down marks for his size in packs. Expect to get a good knock in the head every now and then which won't please him. I suspect he could be used in the Backline when we are desperate again however you will have to wait your turn Oscar as Frosty is entrenched there and Harrison Petty has now gone past you. Sorry No Vacancies.
  18. In 2017 injured against Geelong early in the game without going into details and Richmond led till the last minutes.2 vital losses. That is my opinion and you have yours. Thanks for your stats.
  19. 6 Gawn Made Viney look good. 5 Viney Platinum service from Gawn. 4 Clarry 3 Petrac sharp as 2 TMac has waken 1 May
  20. Yes of course he does make mistakes . You see if he didn't he would be perfect. You can play him at full forward and he wouldn't drop the mark or miss goals would he. Just kick it to him. However they all make mistakes and the ball gets turned over. Gawny makes less mistakes and we give him the benefit of the doubt not like some who don't learn from their's they just keep making them. Without Gawn we would struggle as a team he is good at his craft and vital to our cause as we all noticed in 2017.He is the vital piece of the team. Viney was hand fed well today. Watch the replay. He had a good game but made his fair share of mistakes but the good outweighed the bad today. Please be more constructive with your post. I won't be answering any of your questions again.
  21. I think he finish with 129 points. Now that is insane.
  22. In the second half Gawn started to play like his AA form and ended up with 20 diss 8 marks 46 HO and a goal from 45 m out. He certainly got the ball rolling. He was the instigator and fed all of our midfielders to perfection . Freo's ruckman in Darcy is no slouch however Gawny IMO helped to win the game and was by far the most influential player on the ground.
  23. I just want to say that Nathan Jones has got some good footy to play yet. Today's game was a tough affair and needed some of us to stand up and lead from the front and he certainly did that when it counted. He went through Walters with a hip and shoulder and gave the free and a 50 away when he didn't need to do. The 50 wasn't there IMO However he was backing Lockhart for a hit he took from Walters the thug. Jones did his job today and did it well.
