  1. The FD obviously knows more than we
  2. A little harsh on Barty there STMJ...one of our best negaters, but his offensive side was a bit naff i agree. No problem with raising the bar and I too detect a theme. get the overall team better than average ( or worse case...average ) and give it a kicker with a handful of gems.
  3. Expeditious and necessary I suggest to make room for newbies. Shlt happens hey
  4. Well thanks for the effort and everything Jimmy..Good luck mate
  5. What asylum have I just ventured into ??
  6. Everyone has to lift...its really that simple...not this 8 or that 6...everyone. No one is there yet, Jones included ( but close )
  7. I like the name....ought to be in Westerns !! lol make a change from Jack.....well it would
  8. If the price was right ...PSD ? We need a small forward..we just do
  9. Can only guess they'll roll a number of profiles through the site. He certainly inst in line for 9 I'm thinking
  10. Sounds words STMJ I too want to complement the exisiting and round out the middle.
  11. Moloney used to get the ball...just saying
  12. youre not alone...ive kicked mine too
  13. speaking as one without one I note
  14. Im quite frankly glad Sylvia has gone. His parting words indicate to me he was never capable of realising his ability at Melbourne. Its as though he doesnt respect Melbourne and never has, but instantly respects Freo. careful what you wish for....lol Bernie...still a lad, actually has a much greater work ethos. Cross has a fantastic attitude. Dont know enough about Michie but its quite likely he'll grab the opportunity to play with gusto. if theres a singularity about the trading its to get decent footballers who work hard, all day. What a change it will be.
  15. Neeld may have or have not been many things but I dont think he oversaw contracts
  16. facebook never lies d-e !! hopefully we'll start climbing back up from the 32k odd
  17. Does beg the question though... Didnt they see this when they took him? Didnt they evaluate him ?
  18. They all bring something a little different . An element I do like about Freeman is there's not a lot of gloss about him. He's far more nuts and bolts hard at it , in there and at'em ( sorry mike ) . Hes pretty much wysiwyg. I can see that he can and could get better still but with some other players/picks you tend to veer towards what the potential 'ought' to outcome with them. In and of itself there's nothing wrong with that if that's what you seek. I think Roos is looking to build an engine room that works from day 1 next season. Do you take the 3.5 L turbo or the 5 L grunt box ? depends what you want doesn't it. We need something that runs up and down all day giving good service. Freeman strikes me as this.
  19. We effectively got Pedersen for him they win !!
  20. Apparently Jordan broke their Gym equipment...a big no-no
  21. ok...this Cross bloke...( not some bloke who's cross ) I cant see how he wont benefit the group. A bit of Moneyball leadership take 2 ( the wizened year ) I think he really has the heart to play on, body? well we'll see I guess Experienced nuts like Cross and Vince can only better our midfield. Suddenly the Stool has three older legs to stand on ( here I'll include Jones, as hes now quite experienced ) Around this the likes of Viney, Toumpas and Michie can and will I feel prosper . Bit like staking young sapplings. I dont think Roos and co are expecting miracles, just good honest returns and in a reliable way, week in week out. thats something to build on and arrange game style on.
  22. whos Daniel Cross ? and why are we here
  23. Not to be difficult but it actually made me feel the reverse. Heres a bloke , at the coal face, doing it hard. Its our passion , but its his livelyhood. His workplace has been shizen. its hard to get up each day for that and through it he has. Coming out the other end he sees daylight and hope. How can I not feel rejuvenated myself in the belief that we may well amount to something one day , sooner rather than later ! We really were a mess
  24. We cant really qualify the Saints until we see who they pick..and how they go over say 3-5 years.. Much the same for many a team and this is where this adjudication by the 'dress circle' becomes nonsense. Much is mocked in discussing hindsight but its really only this that can revisit this trade period and give any meaningful assessments. All else is something akin to speculation. About the only real question that can be answered to any great degree would be that of the clubs .." are you reasonably pleased with how youre now positioned" Reality is that few will answer with genuine regard to "what is"..most will lean towards "what might be "
