Bring-Back-Powell

You'd rather a young and vibrant 48 year old president who gets along with the AFL as opposed to an old fart 70 year old politician who's just there for an ego boost, I would've thought.

No chance we finish ahead of the saints.In order for us to finish ahead of st Kilda we would have to win at least 2 games. And the first of those won't come v GWS. Plus St Kilda have a very winnable game vs Gold Coast at Etihad. If the Giants could somehow knock off the suns in the last round we could finish with the number 1 pick.

Thanks davey for the 2 goals you've cost us.

Words cannot describe how much I want Jack Watts to re-sign a beefy 4 year contract with the Melbourne Football Club. Has anyone heard the latest with the contract negotiations? Stuff incentive based contracts, lets offer Jack the farm. The bloke was treated like utter Cow manure under Neeld (eg- rd 3 dropping v west coast but not playing him at Casey) I'm loving his last 5 weeks under Craig. Whether it be kicking 4 goals v Dogs or showing his class up the field v brisbane and even having a good crack in the ruck. Watts is a class player, I think he loves the jumper, and he will be a top 30 afl player in 2 years time. Jack, make all of your beloved supporters day/month/year and sign the dotted line.

I'd say a 10 goal loss tomorrow will be the end of Craig's chances for next year.

I think you'd have better value throwing a $50 note outside the car window.

Agreed. He was brought back into the side in eitherNeelds second last or final game.I'm not one to stick up for Neeld as he was a terrible senior coach but you can't ignore facts.

Or maybe Hogan is the one to miss out?Just because he's the great white hope, his form has to warrant him getting a game. And let's face it, none of Dawes, Clark, Fitzpatrick or Hogan are going to be available at the one time as we are such an injury prone club. I would only trade Fitz for a quality midfielder or classy goal kicking small forward

Rd 20 2006.Won by about 50 and Neitz kicked a few. The good old days...

You know we've hit rock bottom when we're $17 to beat a middle of the road footy club.

If the above actually happened our membership would rise to 50,000

Spewin they're closing level 3. Will mean everyone will be squashed like sardines on the bottom level.

Pass. We have so much small forward talent on our list, that we shouldn't even bother considering another that's kicked 35 goals in a season.

A bit off topic but I'm not sure you drop him based on one really poor game. Remember he played his best career game the week before v Geelong.

I wouldn't mind Mitch Robinson and Brock McLean as steak knives for Watts. But I really want Watts to stay.

Fare dinkum is Jamar ever not injured.

I think "failed" is the wrong choice of word for someone who got 27 touches. Not saying he had a fantastic game, but he surely would've got a 5/10 - and thus a pass.

I'm going to keep giving him excuses until the end of the season, due to his injury in pre-season.However if he's still not making an impact next year, then the heat and scrutiny must be applied to him.

Fair comment.Apart from a couple of soft efforts, Pederson hasn't been all that bad when in the team. Has some talent and accumulates ball. I think Pederson can and will be a better afl player than Dunn.

Is it just me or is anyone else happy Moloney's missing? Don't think I could handle another BOG in the same year.

If Adelaide and Hawthorn got absolutely nothing for losing Chris Knights to Richmond and Tom Murphy to Gold Coast, I can't imagine we'd get anything better than a half eaten ham sandwich for Sylvia.

I reckon Matt Jones has been a reasonable recruit.

Mark Stevens seemed confident we'll get Roos, on Ch 7's game day

Just leaving Pakenham now to catch 2 vline trains. I like to think that's dedication!

I wouldn't be surprised if he they ease him into in next year. 10-11 games in the seniors, 3 weeks rest and another 6 for Casey.
