Where on earth did this "learnings" word come from? I'm hearing it in every second radio and vid interview. It used to be "lessons"  or even "experiences", or whatever, but I assume that's not quite "mindful" enough now for our suddenly enlightened new-age coaches. 

dont get me started on the L" word

That little stuff up cost the Dogs half a million of salary cap.

I hope they have documented their "learnings" for next time.

mods please give warnings to anyone useing the "L" word

only if he gets a hair cut

still think he may have had more issues than we know about,stange how he wasnt given more games when we were crying out for more skill up forward.Perhaps his attitude changed

you are kidding sunshine you are done

I love how everyone complains about Weideman and says that he wont make it etc but, when you compare the 2, Weideman has had a far better career than Watts already and has far more attributes. 

2 sets of standards  

you are insane

jack was/is a good football player ,you dont play 170 odd games at the elite level unless you are ,everyone expected a little boy to be chanpion day one so unfair played some really good footy for us .Good luck Jack

I guess the issue with Preuss is that he is only a ruckman and isn't going to be able to contribute much or get a lot of games as a forward target. Jackson looks like a credible future option, with chop out support available even if Gawn needs weeks off while Jackson is still young.

Given how much we need a big body up forward it would be a perfect result for all involved if Preuss moved to somewhere that needs a ruckman only, and in the backswing Melbourne can find a physical forward/ruck who absolutely does not need to be a star, just has to fill the role. 

A ruckman who isn't a star can't afford to be sentimental and we need to be able to offer maximum opportunity to any forward/ruck who can deliver what we need.

we do have brown dont forget

Even if the club can forgive this indiscretion (his first with us), he needs to develop some hunger for the ball and contest or he will never be any good again.

too many indiscretions,doesnt matter where they were ,it just proves he is at fault .Wife ,baby and one the way.Wake up time for him

time for him to move on and we forget he was at mfc ,gave nothing but took what he could and [censored] on everyone helping him

I can accept he's had his share of average games, but overall I view his season as positive steps toward becoming the player we need him to be. We all know key tall generally take much longer to develop, and I reckon we'll get 40+ out of him next year if he is allowed to play the role he is best suited for.

Weid is a brilliant #2 tall forward - he plays that role really well. All we need to do is 1) not make him our #1 tall and 2) go find a #1 tall. 

we have jackson as the other tall ,weid is developing well ,jackson will be in and out while he also develops so we need brownto play even if just to add experience

any ideas when list changes are done this year

big fan of him but seems not one of goodys favs so definite keeper
