I think you'll find Salem said he wants to try and move into the midfield. A bit different...

You can only offer what you have so if 25 is marginal overs for JM then so be it. Its not like you can pick or choose to offer pick 31 if you don't have it. Sometimes you have to deal with what you have, BTW are we the first club ever to have done a trade deal with Essendon??

You're right about the first bit....

Right. When the Dogs pay $1m for Boyd, the Swans pay $10m for Buddy, the Saints take McCarton at 1, talls like Carlisle and MCarthy and Cameron are being offered huge salaries yeah why would you want to lock away a gun key forward like Jesse. Jon Ralph is an Ess f.log.

Who doesn't have them? A bit harsh. Your first comment about him being a superb kick of the ball was right.

Yeah, but he might get banned and what do we have to give up for him?

Please don't rewrite history. I can't be bothered going through the EFC/WADA thread for you but WADA were not happy. They accepted it because if mitigating circumstances. EFC won't have that luxury.

Ah, damned lies and statistics

He's already EFCs favourite... I pray we don't take this goose.

No

I think it gets missed in the hype about Hogan but his quick hands and brain are a delight to behold. Some of the handpasses were fantastic. There was one rocket to newton that he fired off after he took the ball out of the air AND before he hit the ground. He has done things like that quite a few times this year. For a big bloke to have skills and a quick mind like that is quite incredible. And for that goose Leigh Mathews to say he is not a ground player is freaking ridiculous.

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

Good of you to fess up!

Any sign of Georgiou??? Ha hahahahah

The first part yes but not the second...

er Jarrod McVeigh says hi.....

GM has some crackers in this thread... errr james Frawley??
