Little Richard

Definitely be a few weeks at least until they bring back Kruezer, far too underdone to be considered, he only played a half for the Bullants on the weekend and looked pretty raw. IMO they will think Hampson would be able to cover Martin, will probably bring Henderson in to share the ruck duties.

Haha.. it would be interesting.

Good point, and it makes me wonder. Maybe they thought one good season didn't make a player/leader. Possibly next year?

2010 1. Jurrah's mark 2. Frawls' destruction of J.Riewoldt 3. Jamar's dominance in general and his AA selection 2011 1. The Bull almost shattering Rhyce Shaws ribs on debut 2. Petterd coming on as sub in the same match - almost won us the match (and Dean's only good use of the sub so far) 3. Trengoves tackle - still in my eyes the perfect tackle. Didn't like the result though

It is bloody ridiculous, he is pretty much the perfect role model for the younger boys; he works hard all day and doesn't give up like others already in the leadership group (don't think I need mention his name).

Jesse White would be awesome, the perfect fit of the player we require right now to bullock around the F50 crashing packs. Wanted the dees to go for him last year but nothing! Would be really happy to see us make a play but too early to speculate i think.

I agree that his skills are not the best but there are plenty of others with worse disposal than him, but he makes up for that with his influence on contests, bodywork, second efforts. These one percenters aren't apparent in quite a few our players and we need his attitude and work ethic around to build this competitive culture which is lacking at crucial times. I think he is just a role player, never going to be a star (though maybe he could have been before injuries hit him early) but teams need these role players and we need Jared, he is not feasible to trade.

Brown, Dawes and Cyril

Hurts my supercoach team.. Good news for us though!

The one percenters don't go down on the stats sheet mate. Rivers has been good this year (when he has played), no doubt about it.

Exactly

Warnock could be of a bit of value in my opinion, if he was shopped around to teams struggling for size up back a la Carlton or Richmond. Really just a spare parts player here and could easily be replaced through McDonald, Davis etc

Definitely, the club cannot continue to tolerate rubbish performances just because of reputation.

You are dreaming if you think we can afford to trade away Moloney, if that occured our midfield would be back to the state it was in a couple of years ago; no bullocking clearance winners and too many light frames. We'd be rooted basically

Absolutely kills me to see Richmond passing us in terms of progress aa a team, which at this stage I think they definitely have. A key factor is their selection IMO, ex. Graham, their number one ruckman by miles being dropped from the side for a bad game last week, and clearly Melbourne would not do this to a player of equivalent importance.

Thought i'd mention Davey, seeing as Bartram is taking a lot of undeserved heat. Turn your criticism onto this so called 'star'; he was absolutely pathetic today and in my opinion does not deserve to be in our starting 22 at the mo. Season is not over by a long shot, although we failed today the boys showed a bit of fight, without quite a few of our best players. With a bit more energy from some (hopefully soon to be) debutants in Nicholson, Gawn, McDonald and maybe Lawrence, we could still snag a few more wins. Evans was a fantastic inclusion this week, tried his guts out all day unlike too many other players.

Definitely Bartram to Milne, the Tap for all his good graces, doesn't have the pace or agility to beat Milne decisively IMO and I think he would get caught out. Milne will probably end up with a few no matter who we put on him.

Would definitely have been Moloney for me at the start of the season, but now probably Trenners - the guy has it all. Extremely happy that those rumours of us drafting Scully and Butcher didn't eventuate.

My name is Jerry.. But seriously this point has been made in the numerous posts proceeding it re Bailey's coaching and Green's leadership. And I actually agree that both should go (from their current positions), it just didn't need to be said again.

Pretty original thread

In my despair I tend to say some rash thangs

Juice to save the day this week with 10

Farrrk losing Garland for this long is a massive blow, so important in our drive from the backline and our structure is buggered without him. Tom Scully's knee is our worst enemy.

Well written mate

As well as Bail, Garland and Dunny, dump Jetta, Warnock and Bennell In: Howe, Evans, MacDonald, McKenzie, Blease and Rivers (if not fit give McDonald a go)
