  1. An in form Melksham is better at the role of medium forward than Jones. Neither are setting the world alight but to call it pathetic is projection.

    She’s also spot on. I lean into it; ‘so I have disposable cash? And connections? And an education? And have high end tastes? ... You just really hate yourself don’t you?’
  3. Nah, what is he elite or great at? Medium forwards are ubiquitous
  4. You do realise that they don’t have their first round pick yeah? GWS KOTD.
  5. Dogs go to water under pressure... Interesting.
  6. At least King attempts to do some deeper analysis, so he is fine. And we don’t have a second or third game plan - it was just a tactical shift that we were pushed into and we’re comfortable with because we are good. Brayshaw said as much in the interview on the Dees website. We fell into that. We don’t have time to work on different game plans and trust everyone to understand and buy in - there are only tactical shifts.
  7. This one too. Can you imagine if he was 10 times the player Hunt is. 5000 metres gained every week. Tough to do.
  8. Hopefully none of them have bad motivators...
  9. With That Backline and CO13, CP5, MG11 in the midfield and TMac and BBB up forward - we are going to struggle to get into conversations for these players.
  10. No one has criticised the aggressor who was in yellow and black, playing in his 4th game. Maybe Rhyan Mansell needs to ‘mature’ and ‘show respect’... I do think that race plays a part in this reaction from the media; Toby Greene can act like an arrogant [censored] and it adds flavour to the game; but Lindsay Thomas is a ‘cheater’ and Kozi Pickett is getting ahead of himself and needs to know his place... Some of you would roll your eyes at that think of all of St Kilda’s lippy smalls - they are lauded (not now obviously coz they are crap). I am aware that the forgotten Mansell is indigenous.
  11. I was about to go into ‘systems’ and ‘people that are not able to follow those systems’ but I won’t waste my time. No we shouldn’t get Howe. And if you think we should, you should feel bad and remorse. So head down for the rest of the day...
  12. Can’t be anatomically correct on Land! Sheesh.
  13. Hope she didn’t mention that she has a [censored]... Some in here don’t want to hear bout dat!
  14. We have no room in our cap to go out and get anyone, surely.
  15. And so has Petracca but Melbourne supporters have the constitution of an infant with hand foot and mouth so here we are...

    I can’t believe anyone gives a [censored]. Just enjoy relevance.
  17. TMac plays so high anyway. It’s ok, just let it happen. It will be ok.
  18. Kids get banged up and this the week you arrogantly rest a couple of them.
  19. From what I have heard and read he is adamant he is not going to play back - the rest is your supposition.
  20. That was Channel 7 commentary, there is no Fox commentary if there is C7 available.
  21. Yes we do. Brown is our FF. If TMac can’t fit into that then that is a problem. He trained in the summer for a wing and while his kicking would be heart in mouth stuff when he runs defensively he will be up there with Langdon with kms covered and would be a dangerous threat running forward and taking grabs overlapping with the forwards. And lastly, injuries will impact ‘synergy’ we should experiment within reason to make sure we are prepared for the inevitable forced changes that will have to come if we are to play 26 weeks this season.
  22. The best aspect of his development is allows us to play an extra tall if we want. He plays better with the ball on the ground right now. He isn’t clunking his marks but it’s more a timing thing rather than a confidence thing; if you are slightly off on confidence you tend to have rigid and tense arms and double grab even easy marks. Jackson’s misses just kind of slip out or through.
  23. He isn’t flashy but he plays his role - I think one of the new draftees was being touted as replacing him just after the National draft. I found it laughable. Guess who is laughing now? Well, I guess all of us, or none of us if that’s an odd thing to laugh about...
  24. I am not quite there yet, but reading that thread for 30 mins tells me that we are not far away from relevance - we obviously have a long term lease in the heads of Tigers fans... I wish they had told us, we would have rented it out for a decade or two and made some money...
