Jordie_tackles

Sorry Richmond, we got the good martin...unlucky spos yours goes ok too

Yes sorry, the way i read it was trading Scully not the picks, agree

-Fevola would be 2 years max -Play the role Lynch does at WC, not an amazing player but allows le cras and Darling to shine -Hasnt kicked goals ta Casey because he draws players away from space for Petterds, Bates etc,has been very team orientated -there is alot of water to go under the bridge but he may have a use -I dont think Cook will get alot of time next year atm anyway, although i am i real fan and he is why we only need 2 years from a FF

St Kilda Elimination final 2006, was great being there, when brock kicked that goal, me telling the St kilda supporters infront of me to sit the frack down and ripping his hoody back....

Why dont they just take Scully?

Point being players can move more freely between clubs, players WILL take a pay cut to win a premiership, lose one premiership player replace with another, rinse repeat, players WILL go to the club they desire, will be a nice way to finish a career EDIT - finals being the other draw card, teams playing finals over extended periods

thanks for clarifying, alot of people suggest the WAFL is stronger?? due to money or something? and there being less teams distributes this talent further?? Either way it can be a combination of Players and Coach, i just remember the hype about his move, obviously when you win 3 Premierships you get hyped... I have heard the opposite of triple premiership VFL coach at North Ballarat Gerald Fitzgerald, who some say did just benifit form a "great" VFL team.... i dunno taking away from peoples achievements is never good imo....

I think this could be close to it, as i have said before Neeld has been recognized strongly with Collingwoods development of the "press" and is rated highly all round form what i understand, Im all for getting the best assistants regardless of who the head coach is, although i think we have a few good coaches atm, you can always improve, Also people who want Bailey to stay around if not head coach i feel are dreaming, not that i wouldnt love it, but who wasnt the old boss around, also i would feel out of sorts a bit, and i new coach coaching "his" team.....

I remember hearing very good things about this guy??? Casey have often hand close to 10 AFL listed players this year?? 3 premierships give the guy some credit? Whats your issue with him lol?

Yeah you are correct about free agency, the AFL has opened a big can of worms (not that they had a choice) it is the player rights etc.... but teams with money and who are winning premierships earlier during this period should be able to keep attracting players, also playing finals will be important...sorry Richmond Also having Schwab as CEO helps, him being part of the rules committee regarding compensation, he knows what we will get really and wont let us get shafted, quite the opposite

I would argue the list would be even more balanced, with a slightly wider spread of kids, coming on when Moloney Green Davey retire? If we are being targeted for established players it means that we have to much quality on our list, and will receive a trade for such players extending a window further? Geelong lost players, but not the cream... Moloney was decent but him being a MFC supporter helped him get here i believe, and Prismall hasnt come on as expected at all etc It may end up being one Scully or two Gysberts types essentially extending our depth but lower the top end slightly... honestly we seem to be in a really strong position after all the hysteria etc, our compensation will be stronger than last year due to these 17yo being available And my preference is still for Scully to stay

How will it cost us a second round pick? if a team with a pick before us offers a first rounder we would still need to use our first rounder due to it being after theirs no? we cant trade future picks ala NBA??

Any source to this havnt heard it mentioned anywhere?

He is well ahead of Gibson although Gibbo's last month has been impressive i dont think he was great early Reid is true but there are more than 2 KP players picked they chuck the goodd defenders in pockets and flanks....also with Chips run it helps with stitching up one of the 4 non KP spots i believe

Fevola could be the man, Dont get me wrong i understand the issues he may cause but if he pulled his head in and worked and trained hard there is no doubt that with some decent delivery that he would fill that role, alot will depend on what happens in the next 7 weeks and then until draft time, he has also played a very team orientated role which is why today was his first huge haul, making room for Bate and Dunn, one reason why Bate has been able to snag so many goals at VFL level i doubt we would take the risk.... BUT imagine a 70 goal Fev in our team....could decide quite a few games

Agree, Carlton have only beaten one top eight team in twelve months haven't they? Sydney twice? When we start beating the better teams is when you can seriously consider finals even though we are a chance this year Funnier things have happened than us beating Carlton Hawthorn or Westcoast though.... Essendon beating Geelong etc confidence can do wonders

I would rather they take longer than required than to rush it Also as said they sang the song in the cool room maybe he was waiting in the change rooms in anticipation???? then had no chance to get there in time maybe he is disappointed he couldnt sing it Really stop over analyzing the kid

Do they get 8 points for a win at the MCG??? they would be 11th on percentage Although the point you are making is valid in that this game has the potential to be toiling on the group, but at this same time we need to be turning a profit and this is a small price to pay for such a sum of dollars

11.5 will definately still do it, 10.5 would have before the WB beat Carlton.... so i will guess at 11.5 being the number meaning we now need to snag one of the next 4 before winning the last 3 long way to go in this season

Shifted bars at 3QT and before the fourth started they put on le tour.....with 75 Km's to go......maybe worth not watching though...still was fuming

Dont know if it has been said but Jordie tackling was 2010 news honestly, was our second best and top ten in the league i think but yeah he is a god, So went with stef with Watts close behind

No the only reason people say that is because they are trying to remove the emotional attachment they have with Scully, so as not to be disappointed, Scully is and will continue to be better, Trengove is still a fantastic talent His hands are very good, i was obviously trying to make a point that i think he is worth it

Still applies dont it

1. Elite running capacity 2. What he demands of himself and his team mates 3. Elite Hands 4. He is the best player under 22 on our list 5. Nobody else deserves this money ahead of him atm who isnt or wont get it because he is

Ok as i said it had started when i tuned in, thankyou for clarifying Will still be interesting because we will have one or more of these deals i would imagine
