E25 always quick to pay out everyone for their below par or poorly thought out posts has now suggested to save money and develop the team toward a grand final we want to waste a spot in the first 22 for a bloke who whilst at carlton fought for a spot in the bullants reserves and then played less than 10 games at port one of the worst team for 'talls' in the league. ripper post pal

Is valued very highly by the players so as much as many of you are saying its just another coach blah blah im sure alot of our defenders will be devestated by the loss. however, he has given them a great base for another coach to come in and try and develop them even more. Its not ideal but its not the end of the world either

Read somewhere that cloke asked to be released as he is going to try out to be an NFL punter over in the states. Think he wants out from AFL

Bartrams manager from a source worked wonders Melbourne were only willing to offer him one year but ended up with two. signed but not sure if its known or unknown hes signed but hes 100% got a 2 year deal

Gotch dropped him because he decided to miss the VFL finals to have surgery before the end of the season to give him the best chance of having a full season. Will be his last game for the year before going under the knife from the advice of Connolly. Hold tight and we'll judge next year how about it!

i agree with all the dont worry about finals etc etc, but the actually idea of this thread is appalling. there is no reason this club is coping [censored] for tanking last year when supporters are suggesting we shouldn't make finals so the pressure isnt on next year. if we want to make a grand final in 2013/14 we need to make finals as often as we can not just show up in september that year and make it all the way. If we are a serious team the pressure shouldnt be our biggest problem. Disappointing thread

KC updates are great thanks so much! How's strauss going on the comeback from injury, and secondly is tapscott playing down back like he was named? how is he going? Thanks

Going to be the only one here but let's not be stupid. Every thread I've read on here speaks of how terrible we are at presenting up the ground. Each week we toss up whether to use Bate or Miller as a target for a guy who can take a mark, make a contest etc up the ground. I think if we could sign Lynch to a 2 year deal for not much you'd be so unbelievably naive to turn it down. One: Judging on VFL Watts is currently being used as a running wingman suggesting he's not going to be the huge KPF we had hoped for. A dominating half forward flank appears to be what Bailey thinks he will be. Regardless Lynch's physical dominance would alleviate an enormous amount of pressure of him and our other young players. If a team gets very physical at the moment we just don't have that player. All he would do was too put extra pressure on our young forwards to earn their spot! We could ask him to go AFL draft and pick him up in the 60's. Don't see any negative. Feel free to disgaree

This is very informal but speaking to someone inside the club they thought that Ricky Petterd would be the one to go if he could. Very keen

Jaded all your posts on here have been top notch but i couldn't disagree more! How is it deluded to clap your players. Players had shockers but some players tried their asses off and there is every single reason i was there clapping them and im proud right now to say i did. I saw lots of players try hard on Saturday and its my position as a supporter to clap them and im proud of it . Alot of players and coaching staff let us down on Saturday but if the players seeing support as they left the ground on saturday will give them a 1% boost for next saturday ill be there doing it every week

How about this Robbie How many of his senior team mates did you see go up to him and help him out and say bad luck get the next one Here is your enormous problem. People like you come on these threads and say look what we missed out on because we drafted strauss instead of this that or the other. Its his first game we are down by 40 points and not one bloke has made a lead for him all day. Give the kid a break and look around at some of the leaders in this team. Did you see one person lead to his kickouts all day. All well and good to sit on your high-horse and pay the s**t out of him from your level 2 deluxe seating but this is the attitude problem with our club. Our players have no leadership and our fans have no mind

Firstly, ridiculous comment. How would you have any idea about his development. Secondly, how would you classify yourself good mates with him bradley. i doubt that

Well hes playing this week so chance for nomination round 1
