    Don’t know, but he didn’t touch the ball or impose his presence on the contest at all. Same for each finals game. Don’t know the reason.

    His final series was pathetic. The worst I have ever seen by a Captain over a full finals series, where he struggled to get a single possession in any game.
  3. Now let’s look at it. You have seen him play a game and Sydee 3 and you both are a bit concerned. Our recruiting guys have probably watched him play as a junior and then over his years with GC, spoken to him, his family and coaches and decided he would be a good fit for our list. I am comfortable with the FD decision, unless and until they are proved wrong with KK. I have a feeling they won’t be.

    At best.

    You are being a Potsie. I wanted an understanding of how he defined a reject. You have said a reject is someone no one wants, yet every player quoted was wanted by someone, us. Anyway not worth getting in a flap about it.
  6. Dees to pick up someone better in the draft, than the others named.

    Not sure how you call some of them rejects and others not, when the list of players you gave all played with their previous club and were traded, just like the guys I mentioned, except for Hannan from the VFL. Ultimately they were all rejects or weren’t, as they were traded or delisted by their club and therefore rejected and not kept. What is your definition of a reject, if different to what I have just posted?

    Vince, Melksham, Hibberd, Pedo, Hannan and Frost all playing this year say hello.

    Clearly the FD have a plan for the draft, that didn’t include the FA’s that were available this year and were gettable by us. It will be interesting to see the type of players we pick up, especially given the departure of JH.

    Does that come from tea tree?
  12. I recall reading on DL many posts as to what a crap player Frost is and should be traded at the end of the year. I posted he should be in the side, after Lever was injured and certainly ahead of Petty, who I think will become a very good player for us. After a few games back in the side, he was lauded by DL and the media,for his attacking play in Defence. Suddenly he was a good footballer. While he is capable of the odd Clanger, he is still a handy player for us. Just because he has some limitations, like all players, doesn’t mean that he hasn’t improved. Also just because he has not succeeded, say in previous stints in the ruck, doesn’t mean if needed there now, he wouldn’t handle it better. I am not saying he is a ruckman or a winger, just that he might do ok there if needed to fill in,because of the attributes he has and that he has developed somewhat the last couple of years. I think there is a tendency to categorise players and sometimes incorrectly. We all do it.

    More like chai tea.
  14. Been reading my posts again PF? I also said in a pinch he could help out in the ruck as once the contest is over he becomes another mid.

    BBO, I bet you were hoping for Magic Circle to win, so the G String would be worn by the owner at the presentation.

    Winner of cup, number 23 in red and blue colours. Omen for our part of the draft on November 23. Our first pick, yes 23. Further omen, 3rd horse in cup also in red and blue colours. Our 3rd puck looking good as well.
