jumbo returns

I don't think it will happen this year, BIG JIM, but 2013.....??

Clark weighs 99 and is listed @ 200cm.....100kays would be good for young Cook.

Still listed @ 81kgs and 196 cms........beanpole.

Thanks for the report.

Aka's other job is writing true stories for Heartbalm - he makes these comments to try and find relevance in his life. He's so tragically sad.

Indeed - so be it, that's your choice. I will never tolerate malicious acts on the footy field and that was one of them. Dog act.

Yep - forgot about him....I'm getting excited again!!!

Sylvia and Jurrah to make comebacks over the few weeks...add Strauss (maybe?) can Blease lift? Pettard? and things are shifting......

It's good, thanks.

The action was ordinary, as was the intent. He went in feet first, a conscious decision. Cowardly. I just heard he got cleared. Open slather now for every player to slide in and cause as much damage as they can.

Me - 5-6 weeks.

The intent - sliding feet 1st. Not good.

I agree with the inconsistency - Butcher should have been cited for intent. His sole purpose was to tunnel Col Sylvia.

Thanks

Wheels' tackle on Nathan Brown was completely different....he went smother the ball with his hands and it there was never any 'intent'.

I think they're trying to ascertain negligent intent - sliding in like that is thoughtless.....he was always going to do some damage. Rohan's break is horrific - the same sort of break that finished that Geelong player's career (his name escapes me...against big Al Nicholson???) There are other ways to be first to the ball. Duty of care.

If you're right, that's a shame....he needs games.

I saw that and I was thrilled.....more, more more.

Please no Stef Martin - McEvoy will destroy him and Waters is smart enough to exploit that. Tom Mac needs to be given more game time. Jack Watts, please eat more protein bars.

As a true clubman, would he sign a new contract (always knowing he was going) so that the club would benefit from a trade?

Might be an old chestnut, JM, but why can't we get it right? Atm, there's too much predictability....the ball goes long to the defensive side, in dispute, we're outnumbered and the ball flies straight back in there. Who's the designated kicker? I think it should be Garland and (every now and then) a massive torp straight down the middle wouldn't go astray. Keep the kick in duties away from Chip.

I think the biggest positive to come out of tonight's game was the fact that Mitch Clark got up and walked off the ground - I was seating fairly close to where it happened and when he landed, it looked pretty ordinary.

Hope it's only precautionary....love the avatar, btw.

I said 'at the moment' - this footy club needs hard - nosed, tough mid-fielders.

JM, I won't be baited by your dismissive remark. Sometimes, run and carry is not enough. This team needs hard at it footballers at the moment. CM is not one of them.
