  1. Darling is the most overated footballer in the league
  2. Listen to a guy from the weather bureau on SEN. Said rain would hit between 6pm and 7pm but be fairly light with a couple of showers across the evening. The bigger issue would appear to be wind as it will be gusty/blustery all night.
  3. Just needs to stop Moore. If he scores goals then all well and good. Thats a bonus
  4. Or any day?
  5. You have too much time on your hands! In Jason Taylor and Tim Lamb we trust
  6. Very stiff not to be a Premiership player with the Dees Goodwin never liked him
  7. One thing we know from Jackson and Pickett is that the club will take the players it needs and rate. Both Jackson and Pickett were valued way behind the picks they were taken. We copped heat for our picks because "no one takes a ruckman at 3" and pickett was ranked as low a 30 by a few. Taylor and Lamb will be all over this and we will get good players regardless of where others rank them.
  8. A surprising number of times they have been behind at 3/4 time. They really put pressure on their last quarter bursts. May not work with the Dees.
  9. Or Montagg- na as opposed to Montannya
  10. Is that like rope burn?
  11. He had other options. West Coast gave him a three year deal I believe. And you're right, He didn't want to leave.
  12. You can't teach aggression, intensity and physicality - thats my biggest worry for him It's innate in players like JVR and Viney.
  13. He didn't have to go to West Coast
  14. Max is 32 later this year. We have no other ruckman that can take over if needed
  15. Port have no draft pick currency. And they're trying to land ratugalea with a prayer and fairy dust
  16. Jefferson will be lucky to make it sadly. I wish him well but there just isn't anything about him that screams afl other thanhis height. Little urgency, no physicality or mongrel or even skills compared to say Sestan that has skills, footy nous and natural goal awareness. Sestan may not make it either but there is at least a core skill set to work with.
  17. My favourite was the poster who said we should beat Melbourne easily as they are coming off a 4 day break, playing on a Thursday. Someone kindly pointed out the week's holiday! KB we kicked 6g 10b from set shots including 4 posters. They kicked 3 in the first 10min dues largely to our turnovers, and they kicked 2 goals in the last 45 seconds. The rest of the game we mauled them
  18. we need to fix the goal kicking. 6g 10b from set shots. 4 posters!
  19. Clearly Ed Langdon needed more prepping - now that he has been banned for life from speaking to the media!! Rd 22 last year was his 'All duck no dinner' comment!
  20. Watching last years Rd 22 game and Cox is a dog. The number of times he knees Gawn is disgusting. I also hope someone takes out Maynard and his faux toughness. Very interesting first half. We killed then in CPs but allowed them to score too easily.
  21. The key to this draft will be Gold Coast that has to find enough points to pay for three Academy players - all predicted to go in the top 20 A few clubs including us are all over it and whatever deals will get done - I have every faith in our team - should help boost our draft hand West Coast may also get involved as they are keen to get Daniel Curtain so may split the No 1 pick.
  22. Kyle Langford, Essendon 23 matches this season, 51 goals, 23 behinds Averages 13.7 disposals, 66.9% disposal efficiency, 5.7 marks, 1.6 inside 50s, 1.3 score assists, 0.8 contested marks, 1.6 tackles and 0.9 goal assists This was a joke surely?
  23. Jackson LOL. First 6 weeks the supporters wanted their money back He had 7 games with 10 hitouts or less. Never took more than 7 marks and had limited disposals in 9 games If that's an AA then I'm a monkeys uncle
  24. They have just re-signed him so there goes that theory
  25. Good grief
