  1. Bit defeatist. Are we now a one man team?
  2. Are there any texts between AFL Commissioners, admitting the game is being ruined by the Administration they have employed? It could be suggested by many observers and participants that this is an “immature and appalling way” to run one of the major sports in the country.
  3. If we can’t get McStay, then Tex for 2 years could be huge. A long and accurate kick, would put him in rare air at Melbourne. He is a free agent and given a chance at a flag, would hopefully modify his salary demands. If we got him, a couple of other players could be moved on and he would be great for JVR to help develop his game. Would take the opposition best back man, which would help whoever is the other key forward. Tex is just better than anyone we have atm and he would plug a gap for a couple of years.
  4. Are you saying that as a criticism or a compliment?
  5. We got a good run in PF and GF.
  6. Could we try Tomlinson forward? Can’t be worse than current occupants lately.
  7. Jordon was great and in our best 3.
  8. If you could get McStay, you could release M. Brown and try and trade Weid, who has just about eroded any optimism I have retained for him. Weid must grab his next chance, which will possibly be his last.
  9. Yes forgot that one. Also forgot to add forwards behind their opponents all the time.
  10. Shocking disposal. Poor decision making. Lack of hard effective tackling pressure allowing easy options. 5 goals from frees, to not one free in our forward 50. Key forwards useless again. Dropping marks and fumbling.
  11. Now I feel better.
  12. Truly amazing given our demographic. I see we are offering different packages now which might get us to 65000. 65000 would be remarkable.
  13. Different feeling this week!
  14. If you choose to bump in play and accidentally ( non intentionally ) hit the head you go. He chose to strike a player off the ball ( twice ) and will claim he accidentally hit his head. That is worse than bumping in play.
  15. He is really starting to look like his dad.
  16. Wow Peter Bell is our new AFL CEO.
  17. Of course a USA company would have more knowledge of the game and its needs and the local candidates. Then again an Australian Company was paid to come up with Gill, Cook and Gale last time. Everyone knew Gill was past the post. What a waste of more footy money.
  18. It’s all about acting professionally, with respect to the opposition and is part of a strong culture.
  19. Have a look at the Casey game, it was a replica of ours, except that Frankston kicked poorly for goal in the second half. Daw pulled out ill on the morning.
  20. Developing nicely.
  21. I think that for LJ to go to WC and let them use the PSD this year, would be really low, sticking it to a club that invested highly in him and that led to his playing in a Premiership. He would be hurting us and his team mates. It would be like that no name number 1 pick who went to the Giants. I don't see LJ doing that to us. Aside from the PSD, where they would get him for nothing, I can't see them trading the first or second pick for him, as they will need more high end talent and may rather split the pick. Surely if he was absolutely determined to go home, he would have told us last year and we could have traded for Cerra. That being said, I see LJ signing a short term contract with us, if he doesn't want to commit long term and thereby giving himself time to think about his future, after a couple more years.
  22. Wasn't homesick?
  23. Agree he’s not a dominant ruckman of the competition, if that means being in the best couple, but he was a big part of Tigers flags, a big part and every Tiger player or fan would agree.
