  1. Or you just need to have consistent form at Casey and put yourself in a position where you "can't be ignored"
  2. If I had to go to a poll booth on Saturday then for sure Drain Russell gets my vote!
  3. Watch Jack have an absolute cracker of a match... *Good form coming in *Long time between drinks *Can boost his chances of being retained by Dees for next year *Can show he would be a good pick up should an exit from the Dees be on the cards Good luck Jack! Top bloke who had time to chat with my 7 yr old son at training earlier this year.
  4. If the team switch on from the first bounce and play at their best for 4 quarters then we are capable of getting within 24 points of Adelaide (if not a fairy tale win) If we are off just a tiny bit then I lean more toward us losing by 6 goals or more... I am a die hard fan as people know but I am also a realist
  5. Thought I'd paste a response from Nick Bowen on the AFL website trade chat today... Not ground breaking but worth a mention... Question asked if we were chasing anyone... Michael Hibberd is likely to be at the Dees next year. Dion Prestia also in Melbourne's sights.
  6. Response to a question regarding Swans defence below... No mention of big money by Nick Bowen "Hi Az, Swans actively looking for a key back and understand Tom McDonald is in their sights. Dees are confident of keeping him but given Swans' trading record you never know. Tom Harley has previously said the club is not pursuing Michael Hurley"
  7. I was waiting for my neighbours to call the cops I twisted off like a psych patient!
  8. Why even risk it on a day like today? Up the line all day long in the p155ing down rain
  9. 6. Gawn 5. Hunt 4. Watts 3. Jones 2. Petracca 1. Vince (Lost votes due to the fact he will be up at the tribunal AGAIN!)
  10. Agree with many Joeboy, but have taken the liberty of adding my thoughts Jones - prolific not influential Vince - never stopped trying Hogan - was obviously restricted Watts - it's not basketball Gutsy and clean Petracca - a few cameos Dawes - had no impact Impacted many contests Viney - tried but overwhelmed Hand still sore Trengove - had no spark Gawn - conditions nullified influence Tyson - was easily outmuscled Oliver - was rarely sighted Stretch - missing at sea Should've been Mitchie Kent - probably went overboard Frost - rough but willing T.McDonald - a steady game Brain fades annoy O.McDonald - lacked footy smarts Tried but inexperienced Hunt - brave and attacking Bugg - was rarely noticed Kennedy - had no impact vandenBerg- surprisingly quiet game Should've been Grimes Jetta - barely bothered scorers Wagner - tried but failed
  11. His kick across the face of goal that put O-Mac under pressure early stages of the 3rd when we were 4 goals down which resulted in a goal to the Swans had me losing my $hit beyond belief and nearly demolishing my lounge room!! Seriously?! I am not a T-Mac basher but the bloke has some of the worst brain fades I have ever witnessed...
  12. Some heavy rain due shortly... Then I'm predicting another down pour in the last... Should be fun!
  13. It is looking like some serious rain in the next 45 mins and then another front coming through in time for the last quarter... Looking forward to this one like not many before it this year... I want to see how we go with this test!
  14. It's a joy to watch when he is up and about and gets it right... His draft camp results gave an indication of the potential. 20-Meter Sprint (seconds) 1. Ashley Smith – 2.802. Jack Watts – 2.823. Stephen Hill – 2.834. Nicholas Naitanui – 2.865. Tom Swift – 2.896. Ryan Shoenmakers – 2.907. Nick Heyne – 2.91=7. Sam Blease – 2.919. Luke Shuey – 2.92=9. Taylor Hunt – 2.92=9. Matthew DeBoer – 2.92 Agility (seconds) 1. Stephen Hill – 7.77 (new camp record)2. Jack Watts – 8.033. James Strauss – 8.184. Nick Suban – 8.255. Ayce Cordy – 8.276. Shaun McKernan – 8.317. Neville Jetta – 8.32=7. Dan Hannebery – 8.329. Luke Shuey – 8.3410. Liam Jones – 8.35
  15. Although it would be a bit harsh on young Wagner, I would not hesitate in the slightest to make that trade... Of course this is all hypothetical as GC would be mad to complete that trade... Plus, if you believe the BS that comes out of the local SA media, the Crows are all over Day like white on rice
  16. The issue with Crouch is the fact that he is more in love with the p155 than he is the football... Punts and drinks like a machine.... And if anyone wants to know my source.... It's my own eyes on a weekly basis
  17. I am super confident we will pick up one of the 2 Michael H's from Essendrug... Just not sure which one yet...
  18. I think that we can all agree that on today's form and given our opponent next week, we will be seeing BenKen ready to make a statement on QBD... Who misses is anyone's guess
  19. Because I think Harmes loses his effectiveness with a slippery pill... Whereas Kent tackles more effectively with precipitation in the vicinity ?
