But he didn't use double "quotation" marks which you would use if you were quoting them verbatim. He used single 'quotation' marks which is shorthand for paraphrasing something.... Just sayin....

Sorry but I think this is rubbish. And in any case it wasn't televised on Channel 7. This is a Coll home game and their supporters get in for free unless they have 50000 supporters with those dodgy 2 or 3 game memberships. Probably more something like that. Hawthorn Carlton had 25k on a Friday night and we had 23k against the Saints on a Sunday at 3:20pm. Its not us who are the problem. But fans generally are sick of the AFL and their rigged fixturing. Or maybe people didn't want to go because they didn't want to have racist shouted at them because they booed.

"Has any other other CHB played a better first 13 games?" Wayne Carey

Thought he was pushed under the ball on at least 3 occasions that I can recall....

Way too early for this thread. Happy to back Roos and PJ and Jason Taylor. Have done OK so far.

Its also why the Saints went for McCartin over Petracca. The price of a key/power forward has skyrocketed since the Buddy deal......

No, I get that but seriously, the guy is 20 and his kicking is fine. It's not Nathan Buckley-esq but not many people are. I'll tell you what his kicking is - its very effective. If he has limits, it would appear that he is well aware of them.

You are kidding yourself. Yeah lets get rid of him. FMD

er Jarrod McVeigh says hi.....

And Ross left the Saints in tatters so there is a fair chance he will have not managed the list properly again...

Well prior to the game he had not been beaten in a one on one this year nor had a goal kicked on him. He is in the reigning AA team. Its a fair scalp for a three gamer.

Carey kicked 0, 38 and 28 in his first three years. 1.69 goals a game.

They are not racehorses or greyhounds you know....

Hardly. Stef Martin, Nik Nat and plenty others didn't start until a late age - 17or 18 I believe....

Better that the new recruits learn from the word go that the big time is not an easy ride and that if they want to make it they have to put in. I assume that was what the session was about adn if so I am stoked. No automatic selections, you're all players - doesn't matter what number you were drafted, the hard work starts now. That is a big change from a few years ago.

I agree. Its hard to judge a player from a video but I don't get the love for him. I would be surprised if we take him,

A day without sun is like.....night.

[censored]'s doing well at GWS isn't he?

We can't afford to throw away picks on players on a whim. Every year these threads are loaded with 'Why didn't we take xyz, he would walk into our best 22' .... 'Doesn't matter cos they wont play anyway' is a flippant thing to say in our position. I want 38 guys that are going to bleed for us, push like hell to get selected, keep pressure on everyone above them and train like their life depended on it. I am wondering if Roos has been hiding him in the hope of us getting him.

Am I missing something here? We are thinking of recruiting Paul Roos' son? Haven't seen anything written about him before this thread. Why are we considering him? Because he is the son of Paul Roos? Or can he play footy? I am quite disturbed by this. We need the best available footballer. If that's him great. But he is not a Jack Viney that has been in people's calculations for a number of years. (And yes I know TR is not a father/son pick).

Gysberts....

LOL two turnovers and one out on the full in the first 1:42 .... He'd fit in beautifully.

We'll get pole-axed by WCE this week and by Norf the week after. 8% at least. The spoon is ours. Lock it in.
