    What does it tell you that Travis Cloke had his best game for the year on him and apart from one other game Travis Cloke has been shizen? It aint rocket science! But according to you I have no idea!

    As all would note, I have never been a Mc Donald fan, gets outmanoeuvred too easily and his disposal is always heart in mouth stuff! His last month has been putrid!
  3. Ok a second rounder plus??? a player who might they be interested in?
  4. Would take Yarran in a heartbeat. Apparently he and Jeff Garlett are great mates, What hypothethically would we offer him?
  5. Rookies are signed for two years. What then is the status of our boys?
  6. Hey Dazzle man ( not having a dig here) but given your "Credentials" at State Level, and a Winger Care to speak about Rob Flower in terms of only winning one B&F and also how he managed to be Best on the Ground in any given State game but never won a Brownlow?? I would be very interested in your opinion on this ! Genuine! Fence
  7. Gee hard to argue with this stat Stuie, and Song Formerly known as! However for each possession I see half arsed efforts, an unwillingness to really attack the footy and the ar less than obligatory "Win your own ball" at 81% what percentage contested?? and then see my concern! Not quick enough or responsive enough! for mine! Don't know if in our present mode we can carry this type of player! How fair is that??
  8. Don't give a stuff! Not up to it!
  9. Fitz Toumpas M Jones Bail Jordy all in the gun!
  10. What an inspired pick up Wines was for Port Adelaide FC!
  11. Like Diamond Jim Tillbrook, Cale Morton, Jordyn Gysberts, Brent Grgic, "Juice Newton" et al I could go on but as long as I understand that through Thick and Thin you will always support anyone in a Melbourne Jumper then gee that's really really great! Pity is though those we have got it so bloody terribly wrong now with our recruiting for such a long time these sentiments will not win us a Premiership!
  12. Here's another Conspiracy theory for ya. Best Mates BEST MATES!! Well if my best mate was available I would want him playing alongside with me "Come Whatever May" And Viney suggested that Toumpas was the man to pick?? Come on give me a break?! Something has definitely gone down here and the Red Herring is alive and well!
  13. Yeah well here's a thought Outa Left Field! Maybe he was thinking that in time! Sheesh, Well its a tough gig to get a game out there!
  14. Hnmm you are as seriously Biased as I was with my support of one "Juice Newton"!! Look, he has played 2 and a half good games in 2 plus years! Shhesh he aint and never will, have it! Would love to be proved Wrong but I cannot see it! Little pace and not hungry enough! Time to move on, He aint the future!
  15. Ah um Yes!! Say no more!
  16. Sorry Couldn't resist! Anyone else see that feeble effort to spoil at the 5 minute mark second quarter? Maybe an early third round pick!! probably Adelaide might be interested. I'm calling it!
  17. Well well well, Ollie Wines Bigger, Stronger, Fitter, in short a human wrecking ball Elevated to Leadership group eh! Ah what could have been for us! Sigh!
  18. Gees Dieter a bit harsh, I watched his package and he seemed very deft in delivery! If what we believe is true and Mc Cartin goes at 1 sheeeeit Our Midfield will suddenly resemble a battery of Cybermen!! All programed for just one thing.... Get the footy! I love it and if the rumour Mill is wrong I won't despair with Brayshaw and Mc Cartin not in the least. In fact St.Kilda are under more pressure than a hot air balloon in zero gravity! The best thing about the possibility of snaring Petracca and Brayshaw is that it means we free up some playmakers across half back and forward and create multiple options for game plans and stylised play making! Not only that real pressure for spots in the side creates very heatlhy competition! Wundabar!
  19. Yep seems the only way to go if we want 3 "Live" picks excluding Jetta Time to cast Evans Or Mc Kenzie Adrift!
  20. A few observations Clarke's captaincy and batting were woeful Lyon is not a spinners bootlace, , if you cannot get wickets on turners what is the use of you Discard have never thought he was much chop! Maxwell has played his one and only test disgraceful dismissal in the second innings . Park Cricketer at best Haddin career over time to find another O Keefe I don't think is up to it ! Starc also abysmal selection Time to build your team around Smith, Warner, Johnson, Piddle ( possibly) Agar, Wade( possibly) Rogers is good on fast decks and the rest are a toss up. Not sure I would want the injury prone Watson back ! Time for an overhaul!
  21. No greatest crime was not being selected in front of Wines it was 1 Our greatest need ( inside ball winning ability was neglected) 2 Question marks over recovery after double hip surgery (pace gone) 3 Go Home factor. Regarding who PT would have taken my Sth Australian source strongly suggested at the time that Port would almost certainly gone with Toumpas.
  22. Bah ha ha ha! "Overated" Iv'e now "Heard it all" Ollie Wines Overated!! Bah
  23. Well for once it's good to be in minority even though it does my head in!
  24. So why didn't he take him????? And if we don't point the finger at Neeld then Why when he knew the ability of Wines, was his sons best mate and wanted to come to the dees? WHY ??????
  25. Don't know if this theory has been Touted but I just wonder" wonder" if Viney chose Toumpas because he might have had his Son's best interests at heart. I mean to say Wines is twice the player Viney is, even maybe more so. Hnmm some food for thought!
