  1. But him a Junior membership ticket Grandpa and dont be so mean!!! They are cheap and he can go with you all season or whenever you want !!!
  2. You know that for sure Never ? Been there done that?? I'll wait fir the update from the Club for some accuracy but thanks for the Stab in the dark.
  3. Why is it all DB's fault??? you seem very prepared to Blame every one in your posts for every little thing that happens Bobby! Not sure you are qualified or have the inside knowledge to apportion blame as freely as you do.
  4. And exactly which job has he done DS??? Kept out of the way of the fitter faster Runners from half back and forward??? Please don't treat the position like this he hasn't "done the job" on any scale of AFL not even his reduced contributions of recent times. If you are lauding AVB your expectations and hopes are severely diminished for any of our players. Moreover he Melky Hunty Jets are responsible for our dilemma now as their age and output since 2018 have dropped dramatically in form and intensity. No longer are they getting enough possessions or providing the drive and passion Yet Goody has blindly stuck the fat to our teams detriment and development. Your approval of AVB has the same old keep the youth out message that Goody has Proliferated for too long since 2018.
  5. That majestic it even worse !!!! Jetta Baker and Tomlinson and Melksham its not 2018 for Jetta and Melksham form! And practice matches for Tommo and Baker do not Come up with BEST anything! Hunt lucky probably as his best form is 2017!!!! And really if one of our Key position players goes down where is any backup ie Petty or Tmac or M.Brown I suppose we can swing Weid around a bit. In reality Werridee Your selections are like Goody's very conservative and no dare or flare! And very 2018 ish! Ang you have had about 20 goes at it this season so far.
  6. Facts are we topped North snd Bulldogs by 2,000 last year A Re over 3,000 more than North in 2021 presume Doggies would be ahead at this stage. whatever happens in Rounds 1-6 will decide our figure. We are only 3,000 below record of 2019 which spiked due to 2018 success. Yes the style of membership is important and the Ballarat Bullfigs plus Hobart of Tasmanian Roos would be adding 1,000 to 3/4,000 I would think,
  7. DS You are delusional!!! AVB our best winger since 2018???! Seriously is that any praise or recommendation ? He may have played 10 games but he has agsin been unfit And he has lost any pace he had. Would have averaged less than 10 disposals I would guess. Let's go for youth Or IMO give ANB a chance with his gut run and carry !
  8. Yes but what a miserable begrudging acknowledgement! Only human !! It does not Replace your original comment about hugs at this time of the year. The reality is a hug is a human emotion different for each person snd whether it's pre season or GF day it is no less credible. But as usual you put pen to paper and don't consider you have erred. Dees need a bit more team bonding in their culture and an occasional emotion is not out of place at any time of the day or season!
  9. Seriously Roost it far and Werribee have you watched the 2 games vs Tigers snd Dogs ??? RIF What point Were you trying to get across by posting a 7/1/21 team fir all Jacks? Do you agree or not ?? Or by no comment you are highlighting how far it is off a real collection both any balance and pace. the FB line with Jets and Tommo any pace there ?? Riv at CHB yes Change for Tommo maybe BUT if Petty doesn't replace Tommo and/ or Locky ( now injured) with Bowey the next in line.Replace Jetta We may as well not have practice games. And Werridee why is Hunt at BP? At least If he plays HB is his possie! Rivers on the bench at least he Has completed the training and is match fit ahead of Hibbo. Petty not better than Tommo? And Baker yes someone has to play wing but his form in both games suggests he is still off the mark fir possessions and skill Salem RIF yes don't mind that. Werribee Bakes has appeared on the winG in EVERY team since last year You have put up! No other solution to our "other wing" problem despite underwhelming stats in both practice games. And both have Melksham on the HFF on no match practice This year and No form for 2 years!! Chandler or ANB deserve to start at least. Yes it's only opinion but Pruess in the wet Was head in sand stuff snd Jets Baker snd Tommo haven't worked in the 2021 practices so similarly we need a different mix!!
  10. HFF you are way off in this comment and BN has corrected you. Emotions at this stage after Kossies loss last month Are still raw and open. Great to see Goody show emotion don't see it often enough at times I think.
  11. Petty He's been cooling his heals for 580 days plus I think. If May plays Petty should be at CHF. Or FF.
  12. You are wrong about Fritsch Macca. if he gets 3 goals each game he is finally kicking straighter and is dangerous even more so with Kossie BBB and other crumbers and of course Trac. Bayley is one of our stars and will kick 50 goals This year. He Is very underrated. We need Spargo and ANB to consistently hit the scoreboard also.
  13. Only problem Polly is that Melksham has not played well since 2018 and is not a one way runner let alone a two way runner which you need on the wing. Let him earn his spot at Casey if he wants to fight for it. We have a problem with Jets AVB Jonesy and Hibbo if not fit plus Tommo that none are fast On their feet now. Speed is vital and movement with the game plan or you are chasing g your tail all over the ground. The Dogs handball ( 20% are dodgy) Is miles ahead of any other team but if you can pressure them all the time it makes a big difference.
  14. PS we kicked 93 points last week!! Get the mids back and Kossie plus Salem and we are a different team.
  15. That's the spirit D3 I am coming down from Brisbane hoping for something special from the 22 that we name. Freo are gettable esp without Walters but we must stop Fyfe and Taberner up forward and win the mid battles and make use of the ball going forward. Go Dees
  16. Didn't say that last week I bet D3!!! It's never as bad or as good etc. you know!!
  17. Love your Fritta phrase. Yes he is a wonderful player for us and kicking strsighter now with more confidence. Wait till we get our full forward structure with BBB and Kossie maybe Weid. Fritta will kick 60 goals this season all from inside the arc sans tracking device.
  18. Let's leave a Riv get his training wheels off this year before we ruin him!!!
  19. I'll excuse you both on your criticism of Rosman who you havent seen enough of at 2 practice games at 18/19 years of age and maybe a practice run. Comparisons are interesting based on speculation but I can say you both would be at 33 completely different than at 19yrs in life and footy. Let's also see how Carroll goes at Carlton I think! And if it's on a wing!
  20. Bit tough on Lsngers. When he can distance himself and be given the ball he gives us tremendous drive and distance albeit with inconsistent kicking. Rosman long term but ANB needs to be given a chance as he runs all day ( mostly without the ball ) but he tries.
  21. Wing not ring !!! Pardon my checker !!!
  22. That's taking Langers ring he needs that fir his kicking also Fobd upset our best winger please.
  23. As I have already stated to at least 2/3 posters It is robbing Peter to pay ( play) Paul using Fritsch and now our champ Trac. Give me a break. Fritta is getting about 6 kicks at goal per match and has (As I predicted ) lifted his game all round and conversion rate so take him out of FP, FF , HFF Or whoever he bobs up and take off 3 goals we are back to 7. No Yrac is not playing his position up forward he is starting on the ball where we can benefit big time. Trac the winger is just a fantasy as he also kicks valuable goals either resting up forward or on the ball he averages a goal a game. Also takes a valuable back man to boot. We are back to 6 goals !!! From yesterday's score. Ok let's give them a goal between them on the wing but you can't replace them if both are on our forward line! I believe Rosman is the answer and he needs a fast course of just playing there and learning AFL style snd our game plan. Uesterdsy switching him to the FP did little in terms of his development so that needs to be addressed. My solution is either Hunt or Salem where we have got some depth at half back and they vould be rotated if necessary. Other thxn that why not ANB? We can cover his limited goals ( great start from him yesterday but one swallow does not make a summer and he would be busy and run to defence and forward ) I reckon. May need some composure in disposal but would appreciate the wider open spaces of the wing to run and create. It will prolong his career in the short term.
  24. Understand what you are saying but should he say we can kick 6 goals to nil andwin it? Probably but last quarter We actually hung in a bit and we had been through the ringer in the3rd. Again this horrible ONE quarter cropped up and it probably could have been earlier in the game With the team as selected we really have no option but to learn !! BBB was not wrong but a bit too truthful a bit early but no harm done really.
  25. Would hope that Petty could play either at CHB or CHF and not sure Baker will survive. Reckon one of Sparrow or Jordon will play but not both. If Gus plays then Melkshsm snd Hibberd Dont. Have too many underdone and no form either. Spargo or Jonesy for HFF I think. Would like Bowey to get chance but Might have to wait. Def Nev sadly is probably not up with the pace at this stage. Harmesy is a worry As he is a very careless tackler and needs to eliminate this out of his game. Tmac needs to hit the scoreboard and is prob better suited to FF than CHF but Maybe that is nitpicking as players are moved between one and the other. We have to be careful not to throw some players out on the one below par form today and go back to older not ready or out of form due up no practice others.
