Bates Mate

Along with Barassi a true icon and legend of our club and sport

No, prefer to go to the port Adelaide game in round 10 , when I presume I won't be gouged by inflated accommodation and flight prices.

I was all up for going over and checked accommodation they are already gauging. Stuff that

Instantly my 7th favourite Melbourne player I'm getting his badge at bare minimum.

Having the draft over 2 nights is still a crock.

Welcome Matthew. He reminds me of Jack Watts . And that's not a criticism The way he moves and good hands when leading and jumping. If he is a level up in work ethic and competitiveness he'll be good for us.

Geez that Rueben Ginbey kid from WA is a big unit massive frame on him. Will be a gun I reckon

Agree she was bog by far

Who won again. Sheesh longest runner up speech ever followed by a team dominated against for three quarters winning the medal get off

That bloke parked in our 50 has murdered us. Paid about 5 against this qtr

The FAQs include "can I bring my dog to the Grand final" haha

Longer contract at worst gives us better leverage at the trade table if he wants out in 12 months

Thanks I think the ratio of cat B rookies that actually end up making the grade would be very low

Is his GF from Melbourne?

Have any cat B players actually made it in the AFL. I think Joel Smith may have been one?? Corey Maynard. Any in the AFL of note?

Sure did. One of my favourite seasons watching the Dee's. That 94 final against Carlton where Schwartz , Charles and co ran amok and upset Carlton was one of my best days at the footy

Was to be expected, just not up to the Level required

I know he has had his issues but something seriously stinks at the kennel. The ammount of turnover and blokes wanting out since their premiership is unbelievable

Agree . I trust Taylor to be able to pick up a good prospect and Weid and Schache are on par at this point in their careers

He's a demon now I'll give a chance.. Josh is definately in his last chance but he has ability

I think your over rating Weiderman

Similar to weid. Obviously had a line written through him by Bevo just as Goody did with Sam. worth a try IMHO. At worst he ends up playing Casey all year just as Weid would have done

I wish weid ask the best should he go. No chance he gets a touch against our key backs. Says All you need to know.

His first couple of seasons at gold coast where pretty good. Had burst away speed and Chris Judd comparisons where looking like they where justified. Injuries stopped what would have been a great career

Sounds good. One thing I really like is that most clubs play a non ruckman in the position for 20+ minutes a game like silvagni at Carlton for example. Those tigers will have to go up against either Grundy or Max. !!
