  1. On withdrawing offers I don't think tbat is always an indication a club has cooled or how they rate a player. In most instances I suspect in principle deals are done or close to being locked well before the trade period. Once it becomes clear to a club they are no longer in the race the logical play is to put it out there the club is not keen. Avoids stressing out supporters and creating an impression of a club no-one wants to go to and/or can't landcdeals. Like the roos have experienced. Being perceived as a club that gets deals done and gets the player it wants is helpful as well.
  2. Above average?
  3. So the mastermind Clarkson will turn frosty into a gun defender because he can see the diamonond beneath the pyrite. Given the hawks are so brilliant and sporting untapped talent and don't make mistakes what will we take from a decision not to go after frosty?
  4. Ah, clever. Say no more.
  5. We cannot have anorher rubbish kick in our side. We have only traded or drafted two above average kicks in the Roos/Goodwin era - Salem and fritter. And offset that by trading out our only elite kick in watts. Two out of what 35-40 new players? Given Tomlinson and Langdon are at best average kicks we simply have to prioritise kicking skills in every other trade or draft.
  6. Hopefully? Don't you know? I am starting to have some serious doubts. Give us something to restore the faith #etnotthetradebreaker?
  7. Actually for me Wallace is one of the very few ex footballers whose analysis i rate (mick mcguane is another).
  8. Jeez fellas, best bets already? I'll move heaven and earth and get my bets bet up tomorrow night.
  9. Sorry can you repeat that. I'm not sure i get your meaning
  10. A lot gets said about the tiger's system. And rightfully so. It relies on everyone knowing their role, everyone executing their role and total trust from the team that all players will do so. Goody is a systems man. I reckon there are some players who get games because they do what they are told to. They execute their role. The comment from Macca in that interview marries up with Earle fascinating post that Macca told him at training that some of the young players were not following instructions on game day.
  11. OMac will play senior football next year. Happy to place an avatar bet on it.
  12. I'm pretty sure a Haiku only has three lines. And 17 (5-7-5) syllables. Here's my Haiku reply to your Haiku: Have gone cold on Frost Not such a great defender Omac will shine now
  13. Agree. Going away for a few weeks to think things over is not what you want to hear if you are a pies fan keen to keep him!
  14. Professional rivalry?
  15. Not quite as funny as anyone suggesting dazzler question OMac and see who he has ever beaten. A joke that would be even funner if it was suggested STMJ or jnrmac might want to question OMac and see who he has ever beaten. By the way the answer to the question is Omac has beaten very power forward in the league.
  16. Get the best kick.
  17. Agree. Ralphy suggesting the club does too.
  18. No. The primary job of a defender is to stop the opposition scoring goals.
  19. Is that a riddle?
  20. Most of all i reckon he needs to get quicker from a standing start. i hope burgess focuses on improving his speed over the first 5 metres
  21. Great post. The bolded bit is why i don't get too caught up in all the trading and drafting shenanigans. What will be will be. I understand that people love the various permutations and back and forths, and good luck to them - i like reading it. But for me its bit like the weather. A persons opinion about it isn't going to have an impact on it. by the by not every one dislikes Oscar. He'll play plenty of senior footy next year, mark my words.
  22. I'm a betting man. And i'm willing to be that some DL posters are more likely to look like idiots again (not you Kent). Actually what i'll bet is that some DL posters will take any frost highlight for the rest of his career as proof positive we made a howler in trading him and Hawks are genius. And hawk fans who watch him week in and week and out will weep at recruiting Frostball.
  23. Funnily enough tigers are using the really long handball to clear an area quite a bit. Robbie was beautiful hand baller wasn't he. On both sides. What a player. With his skills and running ability would thrive in today's footy.
  24. For verisimilitude please rotate your avatar 180 degrees.
