  1. I think he means the second line rpfc. I get the feeling he would be a great finisher. i.e. In a good/better side where there was not as much pressure on him personally his ability would allow him to flash in and out of the game and be very damaging. He does not have that luxury at the Dees. Does that make any sense?
  2. Perhaps I am just looking for errors but he seems to make clangers at the worst times in games. He dropped a sitter of a mark in the third quarter last week when on the end of a beautiful kick from Davey. One of the few times we looked like clearing the ball from the hawk forward line. Result was a turn over and goal for the hawks. Now don't jump down my neck I know it was one occasion he just seems to play well when the game is open. When it gets tight and congested he goes missing. Not helped of course by having 36 players in one half of the ground.
  3. Could not agree more, the game was well and truely over by the time he got onto the ground. Have not checked the statts but he proberbly had as many touches in the last quarter as Jones had in the first three!
  4. Son welcome home we need start again! Only joking GoaG.
  5. I am almost lost for words!!!!!!!!!!!! Who knows what lies ahead
  6. I thought he was one of our best on Sunday admittedly the competition for Melbourne's best was not high. However he was working a long from goal on sunday so not sure we can make much out of that game re his goal kicking ability. I think he has been one of the bright spots for us so far this season. A large number of people on Demonland keep saying "give him a chance young guys take time to develop". Well I think he is developing and am quite prepared to keep him in the team. If we want to put in Juice then find another spot. Martin is earning his spot so far which is more than can be said for a few others.
  7. I will bow to your superior knowledge However he put in a poor one on sunday The team result was terrible and some changes need to be made. Sorry e25 but lets see what he has at Casey this week.
  8. Love it Demon Hill
  9. The guy gave us long and good service in the main. It all fell apart at the end of 2010 Lets all have a little grace and get on with it and Leave Bruce alone
  10. Glad someone is getting a laugh today Sturmann
  11. Very Good question
  12. Breath Deep now count to 20 Turn off the computer Go outside and watch the sun set. Works for me.
  13. Is that from experience WYL? However I do agree with you it is not a game for the faint hearted. Some players have the ability of imposing themsleves on the game and others don't. We just need a few more imposers
  14. We seem to be at loggerheads at the moment! Champs don't blink only the average ones, Blinked all my young days one of the reasons I became A boundary line expert. It is much safer out here too.
  15. I have had lots of poor games to refine the art.
  16. It was not me mate I have never ever said jurrah is a joke, Grimes should be at Casey and Sylvia is a disgrace! And no one told me off on Sunday so it was not me. However I will not live long enough to see Watts carry 21 blokes across the line, probably won't see him carry 1 across. But thanks for the character assassination anyway.
  17. DG I was there and it was one of the 3-4 I am talking about. But he has a lot of ordinary ones or is injured in between. My complaint is he does not produce them very often I hope gets in this week and has a blinder
  18. I agree in all my years I cannot remember a worse quarter. In the last few years we have had games where we got belted but seldom anything as bad as that quarter and when we are supposed to be in an improving year. If we cannot complain now when can we?
  19. Nasher most of what you say is correct however I would ask one question For all his apparent talent How many good games has Wona played for Melbourne in three years. I can remember 3 - 4. The rest have been a quarter here and there. Not saying he should not be added this week but I reckon he owes big time for the patience the FD has shown in him.
  20. AJ with the way we constantly flooded as soon as the ball went into the hawks half He played half of last week on the wing.
  21. Thats what we need today dee-luded a little light relief in the last line. Keep it up mate we are just a little tense at the present.
  22. Not this Native but don't worry the MCG is safe It will not happen. There is too much already invested in Watts. And it is ordained that he will play the next ten no matter what. No pun intended
  23. No problem with your additions but why are you so hard on Maric? The guy had an ordinary game first up after a good pre season. He then comes on as the sub 5 minutes before three quarter time when the game is all over. He did not cause the third quarter rout. Then out he goes! Why not some of the same attitude we give to Watts. I actually thought he was far from our worst in the last quarter Whats more he keeps his eyes open when going for marks.
  24. I am a big Davey fan however he is a down hill skier. Very good when he has space but a good close checking opponent takes him out of the game.
  25. And did you notice in the Hun photo he had is eyes closed! No wonder he does not take many.
