  1. I am biased TPF39 , but the problem is he is short and does not make up for that with speed or better than average skill. I know it is very earlier days but he will not be a regular at senior level. He will be a valuable player at VFL level but that is the tops IMO.
  2. And we replaced him with two guys who could not get a kick in a football factory.
  3. We lost today's game because we got slaughtered n the ruck. Why we gave away Spencer for King and flip I will never know. They cannot cut it at VFL no hope at senior level. tigers had 90% of first use. We were always trying to recover.
  4. Pedersen was our only kpf all day think he ended with 5 goals. Best for us IMO.

  6. We are getting killed at ball ups. Tigers getting 90% of first ball use. King poor. Flip reasonable at best.
  7. So you are going to play T Mac at Casey DV8? That is the only way he will be in the same side as the Weid. He has done nothing yet to suggest he is anything more than an average VFL KPF.
  8. No not ill timed RN perhaps just my mood however a little humour will not go astray around here this week it has pretty much been " tear each other throats out " stuff. Until recently I was never a big watcher of games on TV as you miss the build up plays as they are concentrating on the ball area and it is often off the ball that the plays are either created or missed up. At the game you often see a missed option where a player leads to one flank on his own and the player with the ball delivers to the other flank where we are out number 3 to 1, On TV you only see the ball kicked a contest and believe that was the only option. On Tv there is little confusion about who has the ball or who created the play.
  9. Oh wonderful Ernest bought a smile to my face!
  10. Then winning them is pointless and of use to the team. It seems to me that he often just taps to wherever works whether there are melb players there or not. Whatever is the problem his numerous tap wins are to little effect.
  11. Because as a sport station you have 168 hours or 10080 minutes of air time a week to fill. Any thing remotely connected to AFL will get a run.
  12. Sorry it just bugs me as you have no doubt worked out. Go Dees
  13. They know that tap ruckman are not that important, they won a flag without a Gawn. Just look at last weekend in spite of getting the vast majority of the tap outs we got done by 10 goals. What you need a two players who are competitive and a good midfield, dominant tap ruckman who do little else belong in a by gone age.
  14. Sorry for being a pain adc but it is one of my bug bares, for the best part of 50 years I have seen this constantly at the MFC. It annoys me more than any other single thing Dees supporters do/ say.
  15. Oh lighten up or your body will tense up permanently and shorten your life span, it was funny.
  16. My point adc is "honourable Losses" dont exist, e sponge them from your mind. The number of time you lose does not make a close finish honourable it just means you were not good enough to win, a one point loss is the same as a 10 goal loss you just did not win in both cases. Now repeat after me we either win lose or draw nothing else exists.
  17. There is no such thing A loss is a loss there is nothing honourable about it. I bet there is not one Hawthorn supporter on the Earth that has every used those two words. They are used by perennial losers get them out of your mind.
  18. I will be old forlorn looking guy in a Dees cap
  19. Not sure how you work it out RN but I guarantee it is actually closer to 5 than 3.. Games runs 2 hours most weeks plus breaks then add getting there 30 mins before the start already close to 3 hours before you add Travel time. sadly I am the complete addicted fool. No matter what they serve up and no matter how dejected I get after the majority of games I seem to front up for more punishment. However I don't go to the number of games I used to the TV gets used a lot more. I am now a fair weather attendee. A high number crowd, night train trip and or poor weather are turn offs so I won't be there Tuesday night. TV for me. Dont get me wrong I love going to a game it is just now the Dees have converted me to going when it suits. I am going to see the reserves on Sunday should be fun at the punt road ground I have not been there for a game since 1962.
  20. He is not a Stawell gift sprinter jnr but covers ground pretty well or it least he did in the first game when I saw him. I am going to this game on Sunday so I hope he is not out injured. competition was not great at Coburg but you can only beat the team on the day. He was very good that day IMO he was in the top five players.
