    Stringer looks lean, fit and angry and could make a massive difference if they make finals. The Bummers absolutely stuffed up his training and fitness management. GWS looking potent v the Cats.

    Can't blame the Bummers fitness dept.
    He only got himself fit during contract years.
    Same at the bulldogs.

    Buckley can't be that bad. Earlier this season he said on radio that he was a Melbourne supporter as a kid.

    I'd prefer Longmire though. Or the next best assistant.

    Agree.
    Buckley was a kick away from being a GF winning coach.

    I also think he would have learnt some thing while being the Collingwood coach.
    There would be things he did that worked, things he did that he now realises didn't and would do differently if he went again.
    Even people managing skills.
    You learn those as you move through life.
    Look at Chris Fagan, flag winning coach at how old.
    Got the Lions playing good exciting footy.
    And he was under our nose.

    I'm not saying I want Buckley, I'm just saying that because he was unsuccessful once doesn't mean he won't be better next time.
    I doubt he'd want to anyway.
    Why put yourself through that when you can earn half a mill a year sitting on a couch twice a week talking BS.

    โ€ฆ that you know of. That any of us know of.

    You really think Goody dropped Tmac on a whim? For sch!tts & giggles? For no good reason? Think about itโ€ฆ why tf would he drop Tmac if there wasnโ€™t a valid reason?

    Just because you donโ€™t know the reason doesnโ€™t mean there is no reason.

    Go ask Goodwins mum then.
    She might know.

    Admittedly, Picket usually can. Heโ€™s probably just down in confidence like the rest of them. I think thatโ€™s two weeks in a row, or at least Iโ€™ve seen him belly the ball twice in a span of weeks. Always rushing when he has all the time in the world.

    No he can't which is why he rushes his sheet little round the corner kicks.
    Shows me he has absolutely no confidence with a set shot.

    I don't know why we don't just pick up every player who's changing clubs. All of 'em!

    Probably would if any of them would come.
    But they don't.

    And what would you tell a press conference if you were the coach?

    That the team were so bad you wanted to vomit?

    Boy, thatโ€™s going to make them want to improve next game, isnโ€™t it?

    Nothing wrong with the truth.
    Doesn't have to name names.

  7. If I was a draft prospect the only way I'd want to play for us was if I was a Melbourne supporter as a kid, had no other options, or if it looked likely I'd be heading to GWS, GC to play in even emptier stadiums.
    Norf and the Aints would be low on my list also.
    Have no idea if White was or wasn't a Melbourne supporter, how invested he was or what his options are.
    I don't even know if he's any good.
    Is he the next Sam Darcy?
