I always said you were schizophrenic. Which one of you is the imposter?

I think Stretch is going to be a very good outside mid for us. He always makes the right decision, has pace and good disposal. Jones was in there all night, just some of his disposal was off. Hogan IMO was our worst player. His miss from about 20 was critical at the time and he seems devoid of confidence. His few possessions up the ground, took so long to give off, our forward line was flooded. This is a bad part of his game, he needs to work on. Wasn't limping and seemed fit enough. Has hardly kicked a goal in his last few games. Hopefully has a cracker against the Blues. Viney had a hard tag and was the subject of several assaults, without even a free kick.

Harmes is tough and relentless, but you are right he is becoming a turnover specialist. His kick out on the full, from a mark at the start of the 3rd quarter, started the Port comeback, with his direct opponent marking and goaling from the free kick. I am starting to think he should only play forward, where he can apply pressure, kick an occasional goal and not kill you with his poor disposal. Salem, Melksham and maybe Hibberd will improve the back flank. Maybe Harmes can improve his disposal in the off season, as it is a major problem in his game ATM.

Oliver's impact is far greater than CP's ATM. What a brilliant move in swapping picks to get Oliver and Weideman and giving up our first this year, which is getting less valuable each round. Both these boys now have a season under their belt and will keep improving. That deal and the Tyson/Salem deal will prove to be masterstrokes.

Thank you PJ, Roos, Taylor and everyone else who helped. We are an AFL football club again.

That is what Taylor thought was possible, when he drafted him.

I am not sure, but maybe, just maybe, the footy department knows more than Demonland.

You can talk now.

Just read some of the gameday thread. Some of the posters on there should be ashamed of themselves.

Loved this comment by Dermie, if the Dees scrape into the finals, there will be 7 other teams not wanting to play them. We are a respected club again and I feel proud once again to be a Dees fan.

Sensational coverage by Fox Footy. We get every stupid stat and theory rammed down our throat every game. Today, Nic Nat kicks a goal from the ruck, on the siren, to win the game and they don't show it again, but interview him and then leave the game. Fantastic TV. They should do the olympics and stop the coverage, when each event is at the half way mark.

Makes the Bombers, Roos and Eagles losses pretty important. We played the Roos at full strength, at a ground we had never seen before and they got 7 goals from frees, we lost by less than a kick, similar with the Eagles and we played a shocker against the Bombers. We could have been in the 8, fighting to keep our place tonight.

It's a mystery corky.

You drank shiraz!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Misson is just hoping that a contracted player, who is not injured, concussion issues aside, will come back and do a little bit of training before the end of the year, then he has other issues and we should look at helping him retire.

We apparently do have a good relationship with GWS and I wouldn't be surprised, to see us trade another player from them, with them improving their draft position again.

Oh shut up Daisy, we don't all lead the exciting life that you do and this is entertaining for some of us, who have more ordinary mundane lives.

Well I suppose that is the risk we will have to take, as it looks unlikely he will be promoted, unless we are getting rid of a few more than most think.

Well then I would re rookie him.

Saw the Gat got a mention early in the week, with some criminal on the roof.

This kid I think came late to footy and is still growing into his 202cm frame. These guys do take time and they don't grow on trees. He would definitely get another year from me and I hope the club see it the same way. I will never forget those who wanted Hunt gone last year.

That is a joke right? By far the best key back in the AFL.

Actually, I think he is a free agent as is Grimes. Besides that, we need a Vickery type, more than we need a Grimes type. While Ty is no star, he can backup ruck and forward and is about 3-4 years younger than Pedersen. As Stuie said above, we need depth and he would be that at the least, in an area we need it.

I haven't given up on him yet, wonder if the club have.

Should this thread be moved to the new trade board?
