  1. Gutted too many passengers tonight. Petracca , hannan, tyson, anb , hogan , t smith, were all missing

    All these port Free kicks are a disgrace

    He will be better than Paul Macnamee. And won't leave mid season to play legends doubles at Wimbledon

    Most overrated player in the last 10 years. Yes he is a good player but the way the football media goes on about him makes me wanna spew.
  5. Getting more worried about this game every minute. Win the next 2 and the lid is off
  6. Craig nettlebeck
  7. Ted Fidge Mark Withers ?

    Agree on Garlett, our structure early wasnt working and we ended up bombing to jeffy out numbered quite a bit in early rounds I would like to see him now we are getting better inside 50 entries. Either way happy to leave spargo in as he has done everything right and current forward dynamic is working
  9. I get annoyed at playing teams with extra days break. We play in NT on Sunday, then we play Doggies who will have played on Friday
  10. No way Charlie should go for that.Ed maybe but i think both are ok2
  11. I wonder which of his two desks he wrote his resignation letter on
  12. Harmes has been good but all three you mention don't know there limitations and get caught out every game. Harmes trying to break tackles and getting pinged. Tyson kicking Anb goal kicking
  13. Tyson drops sitter rubbish kick and now they have momentum.this season will come down to percentage and we screw it up
  14. Lewis is showing his Hawthorn class
  15. Commentators said weare leading league in inside 50s mainly due to our rubbish entries. our opposition would have best goal to entry ratio every week I'm over it
  16. Happy to not have Jeffy at this stage. Spargo has shown in one game that he is polar opposite to Jeffy in terms of hardness and willingness to chase/ tackle. Jeffy does it one game then 3 games he goes missing , been an issue his whole career . You know what you will get with Spargo even though he has played 1 game.
  17. 6 players minimum on either side of the line who cant cross that line, sounds like netball rules lets put bibs on them and call it a day
  18. I can live with the sponsors logos on the front , and know why they are there but I hate the massive logos on the back of the hoodies jackets etc , stopping me from making a purchase . Excuse me now, I've got a cloud to yell at
  19. Let's see the draw first
  20. I wouldn't classify stretch a list clogger still very young had a bad year but shown he is capable no chance of going. He is also what we need run and decent skill.the rest i agree with but unfortunatly i think Vince Kent and Wagner will still be there
  21. 100% agree Hunt , Vince, Tyson, Jones, Harmes, T.Mac, Lewis, have generally had a least one awful clanger per game that either costs us scoring a goal or gives the opposition a goal. It's a concern that of all our list there are only 4-5 players I trust with ball in hand. Jetta, Watts, Brayshaw, Salem, Oliver (who only kicks it 2-3 times a game)

    Bumping this thread. Is there any reason why we would not be going hard for Kelly, I think he is as much what we need as lever? If he wants to come home I think we should be throwing an offer to him. He has old school mates in Salem and Hunt at the club, salem in particular is close to him.
  23. yep and it will be their headline news for the next 24 hours and be topic on their talk back , sen commentator says this blah blah blah sell generated news getting worse and worse that station
  24. I too am reluctant to pay top $$ for him. the floating third tall type defenders can be found out really quickly . I don't know enough about lever and don't watch enough adelaide games jut general consensus is he is a future star but Colin Garland was great for 2-3 years playing a similar role
  25. well a long way from a done deal but we would need to give up something to get him. Crows would be after our 1st rounder and a player of starting 22 quality. Is he worth a top 10-20 pick and a player of say an ANB quality (who they might entertain given their lack of midfield depth).
