How does the rising star work? Can he get another nomination this week?

Thanks for reinforcing my point, P-man.

Fair points, I accept both.Still, to call a young kids 'style' so prematurely is pretty rich. Ed: regardless of style or potential, my point was referring to the way we liken our youngster to A graders. There's plenty more players in the league that he would be similar to.

Olisik, is, Lynden Dunn.

The kid hasn't even played a league game yet already there are comparisons to Brownlow and Norm Smith medalists. Is there any wonder when a draftee doesn't fire we are so gutted? Lower your expectations guys.

And that's why I started the Incredible Hulk thread.I'm humbled.

Why TF are we comparing him with just Collingwood players? Anyway, I think he's more like Brody Grundy.

For added impact, I urge others to read this post in Vivian's voice.Ed: I shouldn't need to explain myself.

Did he see it lace out at all yesterday. Maybe once. That said, Frost played him very well.

Umm... Just woke up, rjay?

If Brayshaw keeps up this standard he could give the award a serious shake this year. We have a jet on our hands.

Love the irony in this post. Even if it is spell-check.

I would his missus.

I reckon Pratt might be too far past the taxidermist treatment.

Enjoying your contributions, grazman.

As much as some dislike King he is a pretty accurate judge of the game and all of the variables that go into it, including coaches. He called Neeld out very early and was bang-on in that regard. He's also right with Roos who to his credit, put a different perspective on things in today's presser as opposed to the norm. The sooner Roos ceases speaking about the past, the better off the playing group will be and with that a vast majority of supporters. It is indeed a cop-out.

That's fine in theory but if people are prepared to accept his speculating as close to the truth then when does it become a scar of its own? I get the massive void between our performances is hard to fathom but I can't see how it is in anyway related to previous hidings. Roosy should look at a few of his own coaching performeances if he's going to keep up that type of excuse.

This whole mental scarring thing is complete and utter bull_shyte. Teams evolve, players develop, coaches adapt and so on.. There is a limit to which a coach can blame past happenings on current performances and quite frankly Roosy is already past that.

Why?

Is Gus a chance this week? 21 touches, 8 tackles..

That's ridiculous.

Plenty of "Fl og of the Year" memes for Goodes going around social media at the moment. The booing is only going to escalate, Mr Goodes.

I think it just goes to show that when everyone contributes and our game plan is working we are a pretty good team. It's all about consistency but having a couple of extra seasoned players that can help prevent these blow outs will help immensely. But for now, we need to let the wheel turn and for our younger brigade to become those seasoned players. I've got no doubt that we have the talent in our youngsters so it's a balancing act.

Rubbish.The Dogs piled on a heap of goals last week amd we fought back to win by 39 points. Are you channelling old dee?

I sometimes wonder if McGuire has a cocaine habit the way he just blabs on about rubbish he thinks makes perfect sense.
