BAMF

There was an article recently on MFC.com that said that Scott West was now a full time coach at melb. just to clear that up.

hawks were interested in rivers last year. we said no.

Spencer is playing against much better opposition. But i can see where your coming from. He's got height, strength, speed and a decent kick for a big man. From that footage he really seems to know how to use his body weight. Something that we have been lacking from all our ruckmen for awhile. What is his confirmed height? might need to be a little bit taller to make a really good ruckman. Wouldn't mind picking him up as a KPF anyway. With the draft so shallow this year i reakon he will be taken higher than people expect. I reakon 3rd or 4th round.

I was hoping the hawk would win. Now it means that Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon are all in the finals. I would hate it if any of these teams were holding up the cup. Ill be going for the doggies.

Are you the person who was on here at draft time last year posting all the posts about trading potentially everyone to get Vickery?

I hope we are active in trade week. I would like to trade Miller and Bartram for upgraded picks please. Miller and our 3 round pick for Sydneys 2nd round. Id throw in Valentine if needed. Bartram and our 4th round pick for a third round pick. Hope we don't trade our first 3 picks.

If the question was asked this time last year i would have said 50/50. This year, no. Needed to stay injury free this year.

Wow. I really thought he would retire. Personally I was surprised when he was appointed captain at the start of the year. I really thought he would be playing a limited number of games to let the younger players get some game time. Im twice as surprised that he will be doing it all again next year. Guess ive turned into another one of the many, many people who have underated James McDonald.

Jamar has been living in Melbourne for almost 10 years, his life would be firmly in Victoria these days, He is finally the number one ruckman here. Why would he want to go back to S.A? And why Port? Why on earth would anyone want to play for Port? Surely if you wanted to go back to S.A you would want to play for the crows? Or is it because someone realised that Port don't have any ruckmen and realised that Jamar was from S.A, and put two and two together?

I've been thinking this myself. We will get an upgraded pick by about 7-8. Sydney will get Miller.

Is everyone forgetting Freaks call about Garry Ablett Jr.? He's a good player because he has a body shape that is hard to tackle! HA HA!

You really have to like the guy after reading that. Its a shame we have so many other types like him, we really need a inside mid with pace. If there is not room for him on our list, I really hope there will be a chance on another teams. Sydney have been interested apparently.

He's got another year left on his contract. So i guess he has one more roll of the dice. 5 years in and we haven't managed to get anything out of him yet. Not even showing signs that he could break out to be a good player.

Ohhh... so thats it! Got to admit, I found this really hard to read.

Seeing that we have a lot of list cloggers who are still contracted for next year, delistings will be trickey. I would much rather trade Barts for an up-graded pick. eg. Bartram and our 3rd round pick for a 2nd round pick. Depends on who shows intrest. not much point doing that with the saints, but the Swans might be keen.

I doubt Carlton would go for that. But you never know. If they rate Scully that highly they might. I doubt that West Coast will get pick 1 anyway. In other rumour news - Was looking at Demonology, and our old mate Haydo reakons he has heard that Bartram has already requested to be traded. He is not happy under Dean Bailey. Apparently the Saints are keen as well as some other clubs.

He is out of contract and still has question marks all over him. A lot of people on here think he might be delisted. I however, am a fan of his. Really disapointed that he didnt manage to get on the park this season. He has bulked up a lot! He will be a massive bonus if he comes good.

Trade Butcher? We dont even have him on the list yet and people are calling for him to be traded! This must be a first!

Its clear that West Coast is tanking. Pavlich left to run riot.

Your a very hard man to please Adam. Robbo was a Daniher man. Time to replace him with a Bailey man. But he was good, and he still has my respect.

Carlton have overtaken Collingwood in my eyes. The whole Salary cap, Tanking, Judd getting paid by Dick Pratt. Its too much. I hate them both but I hope Carlton lose every single game they play.

As if we will have to explain anything to the afl! Even looking over these message boards we can see these points about the players. Mclean - Has clearly been playing injured for awhile now. Jamar - Has had a history of quad problems this year and is not surprising. Green - Has a serious injury that will keep him out for a while. Its not like we are saying he's out with general sorness or a mysterious injury that the doctors cant work out a la Kerr. Jack Grimes - History of back problems, as if we are going to risk him. Is hardly a senior player only having played a couple of games. on paper wouldnt influence a match. Jetta - Is learning the game still. Whelan is the one who came in for him. Harldy tanking. Robertson - Clearly was going to be dropped after last weeks game. Frawley - This one is the only question mark. Of the ins - Everyone has been playing well for Casey over the last few weeks and deserves a run.

I think we all knew that this was coming..... In other news. Scotty West as full time is good news!

Ive been having a look through the West Coast message boards recently. A lot of posters there think that he is a certainty to be West Coasts 2nd round pick.

He will be a great story no matter who picks him up. Hope its us. sounds like he is worth a punt.
