  1. I'll just say this it was Jurrah taken over Rockliff, I don't care what great and brief performances he did over a short period. It was clearly the wrong pick
  2. Oh for god sake , we talk about bad picks and mistakes the club has made in the past. Yes Jurrah was a freak but it was nothing to do with bad luck it was a bad pick plain and simple. Harsh yes maybe but at the end of the day it was Jurrah taken over Rockliff Move on he is not for AFL anymore
  3. Yep I know but points for creativity?
  4. Suns on current form twice GWS twice St Kilda twice
  5. 6.Gawn 5.Tyson 4.Jetta 3.Jamar 2.Howe 1.Frawley Nate Jones & Crossy are unlucky not to poll votes and all round far better performance and effort than last week
  6. Only seen Crozier once this year very hard to judge what I call a vanilla footballer, decent accumulator most weeks but you never see anything eyecatching or outstanding. Very robotic in his movements and I suppose when I saw him the bonus was he played a link role through the middle/wing. Never left his opponent more than 5metres away when opposition were in possession, but breaks very quickly to space when the ball is turned over looking for the outlet to rebound. Very well drilled team player who plays to instruction well but totally different player to the natural free flowing player when drafted. Would be a solid player but would not be giving up much for him
  7. Don't worry old I think we will all have forgotten that option by quarter time tomorrow
  8. The same way numerous Demonlanders have forgotten how much they used to slate Paul Roos in 2012 & 13 when he was commenting on Melbournes list and footy skills. A lot on here seem to have amnesia about their previous thoughts/comments in regard to Roos. I will barrack for anyone who wears the red & blue, leaves nothing on the field and plays like they give a damn
  9. But Old Dee what if we win. LOL
  10. An idiot who has a severe lack of understanding in making choices he may be but if you could get him cheaply through the preseason draft with a contract loaded with several conditions, I would actually not mind having a look at Robinson. Hard as nails and you never die wondering, Robinson has limited ability but he is everything in his endeavours and way in which he hits the ball that has seen the likes of Sylvia, Morton, Gysberts and others never get near their best I would not rule out chasing him
  11. and this time last year Tyson had signed for another 2 years at GWS. But if he stays he stays, pay extra it's Treloar I want of all their mids
  12. Gawn, Riley, Bail and Barry will survive from that group and they will all be depth, although Gawny may be Number 1 ruck by then Frawley will be either here or replaced by his compo pick or who it was on traded for So that's 11 out of 40 changes over 2 years hardly alarming or out of the ordinary with other team list changes
  13. Cheers for the updates and report Saty and Cmon the Toffees
  14. Agreed but there argument is shot down when they openly state players need to earn a decent living because their careers are only short Whilst that may be correct, being drafted at 20 and playing at SANFL, VFL or WAFL level training part time would enable them to complete an apprenticeship or complete the large part of a University degree/diploma, which tehy could utilise when the injury occured or the career came to an end
  15. Agree hate them and Essendon because of the arrogant supporters I put up with as a kid in the 80's. 87 prelim put fuel to the fire, 00 GF & 04 Elimination Final more fuel and James Hird. Lost my oldest 4 seasons ago to the Pies Now the youngest has taken a vested interest in the Mustard Pots God help us
  16. His leadership, tackling and pressure inside forward 50 is invaluable He is not a bad kick, in fact better than I thought after his last year with the Pies Agree with others he is a number 2/3 forward and will benefit from assistance inside the forward 50
  17. TMac just needs to learn he is not the anchorman who we play through from defence. As far as kep position defneders go I have no issues with him, way ahead of Glass/Mckenzie at the same stage in their careers.
  18. No their attitude was never questioned they just couldn't break in regularly to that side Wellingham is not putting in the hard work required and on what I have seen has not been willing to work hard when he doesn't have the ball. And there are other reasons which I will leave there
  19. Watch Meth Coasts last 3 games vs Brisbane - very poor match and they looked very slow in ball movement and leg speed vs Richmond - poor all night and very slow all around the ground vs Adelaide certainly looked like one of the fastest teams going around It's funny but when things aren't going your way you look really slow but when you play well move the ball quick run and carry you look a lot faster. Trengove of 2010/11 never looked slow even though he never looked like he had blistering pace
  20. Stay away from Wellingham IMO, bad news and when I seen him playing in the WAFL really poor attitude and work ethic.
  21. Jordan Gysberts got 2 nominations, just saying
  22. Debut in front of family and friends at Patersons would be nice
  23. Simon Eishold, the miss was bad enough, but what it would have meant had he nailed it, make it worse and leave it in my memory forever. And as for the keyboard warrior comments Have played and made many many mistakes, doesn't absolve you from criticism at any level just put your hand up and acknowledge it. Once you get personal and the attacks go over the top then IMO you become a keyboard warrior
  24. I'd rather have a player do a good solid year in and out of the side and gaining some experience and missing out and hitting the ground running for 15+ games in his second year and be ineligible. Hopefully Salem will be like that next season
  25. Agree with others it will be ruthless, Roos has had a good look this year and his comments of late are hinting towards as many delistings/list changes as last season at least. I'm not up an ll current contract situations so if someone is still in contract and on that list well I apologise in advance Blease Evans Terlich Byrnes - Retired Clark Retired Clisby Nicholson Fitzpatrick Strauss Mckenzie That's 10, without Frawley who will more than likely make it 11. Some on the list may be unlucky but it's a cut throat business and that is footy, on top of those 10 we are going to have to face facts others who we may be loath to lose may have to be traded. Interesting period ahead
