  1. Agree with you and as Dazzle has pointed out 7th May not be a super result from a bottom 4 team but given he never got anywhere near that at Melbourne it does display some development. On that basis he is still , as you say a massive upgrade on Oscar!
  2. In my view this result vindicates the "Blunder" of letting him go when we did. I saw enough of him in HAWKS games to say that his "Percieved" deficiencies have been eradicated to a greater degree and he played some good solid football. Its interesting to see what coaches that know how to get the best out of players do so. I reckon though, that Sam Frost will continue to improve not dissimilar to Bachar Houli when he went from Essendon to Richmond. If that happens then the blunder in letting him go will be even more pronounced and damning. I Was disappointed to see him leave Melbourne and even more so now!
  3. Sad situation for Harley, Family, MFC and footy in general.
  4. BANG! Correct with all comments re JV! however I would be happier if we negotiate hard an offload him and do a good deal!
  5. This then comes down to coaching..... Something we aint good at. Having said that that's why JARED POLEC would be ideal as a winger for his run at least and getting the footy of an inside mid.
  6. I keep saying this For God sake PLAY SMITH FORWARD!! Agree, that Oscar can go! Anywhere!
  7. On too much coin, haven't got funds for a pay out! Highly capable, passionate, can kick super goals on occasions, though erratic at times. Keeper for sure! Entertainment factor high!
  8. Gee sounds more complicated than me making poached eggs for breakfast!
  9. I thought this was a thread about Clayton Oliver?
  10. A HUGE NO. His next head knock could be VERY DANGEROUS. For that reason alone the answer is NO!
  11. On 9/24/2020 at 3:53 PM, Rocky said: Brown, Mihocek and Jackson/Weid.. with a combo of Kosi and Spargo/Hunt crumbing..? Ah not Spargo!
  12. More so Tell that to Rob Flower... Almost ALWAYS the best in Victorian Games!
  13. If we have signed him for 4 or 5 years I believe this will come back to bite big time! As iterated limited player who won't improve.Will keep making the same errors time and time again. Before anyone wants to criticise then this is just my opinion.
  14. I picked up on that comment as well. Would love to know who, in his opinion was not "Buying in" Meet him a few times during that magic season in 1987. I remember him being the first one in at the after match at the G and buying me a beer. His comment after taking a large gulp was "Gee I needed that, a beer always tastes better after a win" Top bloke and top coach. Would love to see what he would do with this current team.
  15. Hnmm I knew him briefly in another life and in all honesty a terrific bloke with great sense of humility, brevity, and LIFE balance! From a great family, who supported him magnificently. Let's focus on the positives in a negative world, Might not have had the burning desire to play AFL but did anyway, to the tune of 170 odd games! AND had more than a touch of "Briiliance" If he had an EGO, he might well have gone down as one of the greats , but like Robby "EGO" was left far behind! That to me says plenty! Plus a very decent and genuine human being. Congrats mate well done cheers PF
  16. This must be a stitch up, seriously "CLUB DESPERATE FOR HIM TO STAY" ??? Give me a break if so we are really in deep sheeit!
  17. Get him in to teach Fritsch how to kick goals!
  18. That would be a super deal but could not see them going for it.Second round pick and a player say T Mac??
  19. Should still be a Demon, so to should Sam Frost!
  20. U would cry!!! ??? MATE I would need therapy from Nurse Rachett for the rest of my life if Clarry left?
