Perhaps not ... Concussion ptotocols ??

A very VERY important cog in our machine... VERY !!

I think Goody might look to give Shack back to back games. Didn't set the world on fire but did do some nice work. Perhaps he did his 'role' well.. 🤷🤷 Petty is a backman ( only ) imho. I don't pickem ....so i guess we'll see. Continuity can be a Good thing.

No change

The idea that Roo is the new linch pin is either extreme wishful thinking....or a tad incredulous. He's just starting out.

The "blue" being .....poignant.... 🙄🙄🙄

Im going to have to assume footwear... Can't be too sure in this thread ...with some posters ...

Conversely the trick to beating us is the same.. apply buckets of pressure and throw everything and the sink at us. Tbh.. it works... ( more often than not...these days )

Face it ...you're bogan !!

Sorry... whilst you're at another club... you're NOT Melb ;)

Can only think Tommy's foot is better than Benny's back 🤷🤷🤷

Shame.....

Funny... id pick Tassie ;) Does anyone have a decent idea as to the possible timeline for any of this? Cheers

He came to us under a cloud and with much supporter reluctance. We all make mistakes... ( as opposed to those that conspired ... ) He certainly embraced the new opportunity. He has earnt his Trident. I wish him well. Hope he still has a very good season. A stalwart down back. Well done

Actually.....it does.....

I think you need to step back and remove erroneous overlays. Stats are just just stats.... without context theyre useless. What he may have done previously is not where he is NOW. Reads a bit like a Financial Caveat/Disclaimer for that very reason. Its where Ben is at NOW.. not 4 weeks ago Right now his form is not flash. Do you want to suggest otherwise ? He's having difficulty impacting, he seems to have possibly a niggle with his kicking.. that would make sense if he's suffering back problems. It's probably best he regain all his footy prowess . He can then be effective and contribute.

Bit more to the game than running.

Its such a simple metric of consideration really isn't it.

Form.... carrying something.. 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Maybe we dont go to the mecca of Betting...just sayin'

I'm thinking #19 will debut at CHF Will kick 3.3 Just putting it out there ;)

And.. Schache is an AFL player... ..played in Grand Finals and everything....true dinks. I don't understand the scorn and derision of this guy tbh. Of the 3 Tmac, BBB, and Shack. ... who is better shape...better form ? By all accounts recently kicked a bag of 4 on a day abd a ground not suited to talls. Yeah ...a real hack that Shack. I really couldn't care who any of them are. Im not trying to have a kick to kick with mates...... I'm just supposing who might be the most useful player to have out there doing a role. And someone not carrying a niggle( at best ) ... someone who can pinch hit in the Ruck... go forward...or if need go back. Hes not fn brilliant....but hes non too shabby either. He's done the graft and hard yards... hes been seen worthy as a sub.. Well... sub him in ffs.

Firstly... i think youre doing Shack an injustice by being so dismissive. He's no A grade... a pretty solid B ( or thereabouts )... and speaking of problems we have a serious one up front. All well and good when one of Tmac or Benny are up and about.... but they aren't and then Fritter and Roo cop heavier attention. If the club doesn't think hes anything...why have him. He's an experienced Forward. His defence experience affords him decent savvy . He's not ideal perhaps. Whats your answer Jade ??

The Umpiring has to be made professional. Needs to be a totally dedicated and accountable job paying some reasonable coin. It's amateur hour...because its amateur. Beggars belief it still is.

Well.. the Brains Trust has hardly faulted. He must be bloody good....and will want to be. History suggests the strike rate on these "gems" is low. We need to get this draft and next right... not getting much of a look in for years after. I'll park my thoughts/concerns and get back to reality.
