  1. Having looked at both side in Carlton and Collingwood I find it hard to see the Pies winning tonight.The pies have been hit big time with injuries. I feel a very small pang for them. Blues tonight for me. Sad to say it Redleg but they are eight bound. Pies to miss.
  2. My view is we are playing Sydney not The Dogs this week. We have made one change forced by the injury to Blease. Not suggesting that is bad after a good showing min. changes shows confidence in last weeks winning team. However he is replaced with Grimes who has not played a game anywhere in eight weeks. Swans have mumford back. Swans by 8 goals if we have gained some confidence from last week.
  3. While we have not been great at developing players deerule I don't believe it has been our biggest problem.A large number of our early picks have been just plain poor. No amount of great development would have turned them into anything more than they were. Just poor picks that were poor players.
  4. I guess the difference is I think time already has told.However I don't hate him or anything similar He has played some good games but IMO the good ones are far outweighed by the bad ones. He always gives 100% as I have said on other threads, I just don't see him in our medium term future. But it is only my opinion
  5. None of them exactly covered themselves in glory bb.Don't take much from those three We were also hardly a wonderful side thought that whole period.
  6. A certain LC was All Australian in the juniors and did not play a game. One in the hand will do me
  7. Superman Now that does look good! Seriously Chook it does look better that some of recent times. But you are only as good as the other team lets you perform . We have all got excited in the past about how good our team looks only to be walloped. Excuse my pessimism but I will see how they perform before I get too excited.
  8. Me too DD Any club for that matter especially south of the murray
  9. All that is fine deeko but how many of those possesions goes straight to the other team?
  10. But bb you say Neeld was hopeless so does an award from him care much weight?
  11. No DemonOX they had it right You just lived it the wrong way
  12. Haven't you heard FT GCS want Frawley we are arranging a swap for O'meara
  13. Must have been in the same drawer as the chinese sponsor bb Remember them they were a week away one AGM a couple of years back.
  14. You all have short memories he played some good games in his first three years.
  15. I heard CS had them almost signed when he got flung.They pulled out because they could not handle action
  16. bb are you steeling my mind? god knows why you would But I was just thinking the same thing. He is contracted for next year so we pay anyway.
  17. Sorry DemonWA Not one of my better afternoons Feels like I have been here before. 2007, 11 and now 13!
  18. Seems we have Been there for quite a while bb Can you let me know when we are somewhere!
  19. I agree Nutbean IMO Grimes is a backman Viney is a kid that needs another year or two And Mckenzie is a good VFL player.
  20. All of that may be true PSD but I just cannot take a shine to Williams. Just rubs me up the wrong way
  21. I wee bit of cynicism there bb. Healy is not normally a person who makes wild claims. He is one I think has some Cred.
  22. As I said Gd it never hurts to dream. The major problem is that is all we have quite often
  23. He has been correct a couple of times recently the last being Neeld's departure. If I had to choose right now it would be Craig. However according to the new rules we cannot talk to Williams or Eade as both look like being involved into Septemeber We have a while to wait. A few better performances over the next month and Craig's odds could shorten dramatically.
  24. You may well be correct rpfc I firmly believe that whatever he was destined to be was ruined by Neeld. IMO Neeld tried to turn him into something he was never going to be. The kid was skilful he played some very good games under Bailey
  25. I have spent the last 14 hours trying to come up with an alternative PSD. You win!
