Is there a slower player than Trengove? Excruciatingly slow, almost cost us there.

Your goal again Grimes. How people rate him I'll never know. The same people that rated Moloney most likely.

Paging @ProDee. If you're watching the Casey game, the commentators just said the Casey KPFs contested marking is starting to beclme a factor, whereas the Bulldogs are struggling without a recognisable KPF taking grabs. A bit like their senior team. They might pinch the flag today, but it won't give them sustained success. KPFs is where it is. Quality KPFs turn games and enable clubs to build dynasties.

How was Jack Grimes ever an AFL captain? An absolute embarrassment.

Sam Mitchell 2.0.

Oliver head and shoulders above this level. The rest are very very VFL level. Matt Jones has been alright.

Clyne is the weak link there now. Gets caught on the ball too easily. But we have depth in every position on the pitch now.

Wow, the Liverpool press was seriously intense. The best it's been since the back end of Suarez's final season. If we could defend, we'd push Man City for the league, but we still managed to concede to ten men.

Was at a wedding, so missed it. That's massive. Leicester have really come thumping back to earth.

Whilst there will be contest for the half back position, I think the expectation is that this will allow us to use some of these guys in advanced attacking positions. ie. It's likely Hunt or Melksham or Salem will play on a wing. This means we'll push out some of our fringers like Bugg and even Harmes. And if those two guys improve their game's, they'll put pressure on that half back or wing position and give us some happy headaches. I'm beginning to think we'll need to strengthen our half forward role players, as Kennedy, Harmes, Garlett yoyoed in and out of the team this year. Kent kicked goals but was his usual wildly inconsistent self (which still makes him a question mark for mine). This is an area of the ground that needs new personnel. At least, better competition for spots from legitimate AFL players. I wonder if we'll look at GWS or GCS small forwards/hapf forwards?

Massive if Manc's drop this game. Particularly as it's at home.

Wow, this thread just took a turn for the worst. Brayshaw for Riewoldt? Just yuck.

They won't have a club much longer. I know which I'd prefer.

Is there a way Hawthorn could legitimately get Mitchell, O'Meara and Fyfe?

Because if he helps us win 1-2 more games than we wouldn't have otherwise, that will in turn help our development and foster a winning culture anyway.

Pretty much or: End of 2015 - 1) Hawthorn 2) Geelong 3) Collingwood 4) raffle them End of 2016 - 1) Hawthorn 2) Geelong 3) Dogs 4) raffle them

Agreed. It reads like a lot of posters simply don't like him and are letting that cloud their judgement when it comes to recruiting him. Some even going as far as saying they won't support the club if he plays for them. Rubbish.

I thought he had to go home to Adelaide to be with family? But he's happy to leave family to coach? [censored]. Ah well. I'll try not to be bitter.

Yep, that's the dream. I hope the Chemist is past it too.

So... where's that poster claiming we'd offered Mitchell a lucrative contract? I'm awaiting more news, rather than petty squabbles.

Just give him two more years at the club and they'll be in Richmond-like strife. Particularly if the likes of Mayne are being offered 4 years and Wells 3 years.

De Goey is highly rated internally too, I hear. So not sure where that's coming from.

If you think we're right for senior leadership and experience, I can't help you, mate.

I love the Melbourne Football Club. As long as you're playing for my team and you're not a rapist or murderer, I'll support you. Harvey will be welcome and will add something.

I'd take Thompson and Harvey. If our younger kids are good enough, they'll be playing instead.
