  1. Liam Jurrah owes Collingwood big time after they gave up on him back in 2008. Monday will be the first time LJ has had a chance to play against the Pies. My dream is for him to kick a 70 metre goal to win the game after the siren.

    To make it his 10th for the day RudeBoy?

    We love your insight into Liam here mate - keep it up. Hopefully he starts flying for his marks again this week, would love for him to bring down a few.

  2. Jamar was named on the bench in the all australian side pal. So he is not an all australian ruckmann

    Nah, he was an all australian back pocket.

    What the hell do you think he was selected as? Wait...it couldnt be as a ruckman could it?

    He is AN all australian ruckman. Not THE all australian ruckman.

  3. I am happy to give Stef time, but I can't see him making it as a ruckman.

    It is a few things...his inability to time his leap (goes far too early), his want to avoid body contact in the ruck (could explain why he jumps so early) and as mentioned, no real purpose or direction when he does get first hands on the pill.

    In my opinion, throw Gawn in the deep end. We need a natural ruckman otherwise we will continue to be slaughtered in the clearances like we were yesterday. Surely a > 2m beanpole will provide a better option in the middle.

  4. yes I understand he was elevated because we are one short on veterans list

    ...but why did they elevate him at start of season rather than when required? Is it because the rules state that veteran-short elevations must be nominated at start of season? If so this seems a silly rule.

    Correct. Must be nominated at the start of the season.

  5. Grimes has broken his navicular bone. Would be surprised if we saw him back this year.

    Navicular is complicated. I hate to make the comparison, but it's similar to Matthew Egan's bad break which in the end, force him to retire.

    Where did you hear this news???? How would they know without having done an xray?
