  1. There is no shortage of quality young mids at GWS, Dylan Shiel & Adam Treloar are two I really like the look of. Dom Tyson showed a bit last year to
  2. They were never really in it old dee, they were brave all day which was good to see. Mark Seaby was the difference between the two teams and both sides were missing key players We should beat Swans today and depending on results today there could be a gap opening between the top 4 and the other sides
  3. Hasn't handled the hard tag so well thus far this season TBH
  4. He is not in there for what he does when he has the ball, he is vital to the side for what he does when they have the ball!
  5. I saw him play colts at Claremont a few years ago and he was very good. great with his hands and displayed great awareness and vision in close confines. Will find it tough to break into Sydney's midfield and could be worth a crack but in all honesty I have paid no attention to him since he moved from WA. I wouldn't give to much away for him though I have to say, whilst they are a quality midfield 2 years in the AFL system without a game should reduce your currency.
  6. I know nothing about this but just as devils advocate. When first released Essendon and an unamed player from another club were put forward to Demetriou as coming up during the ACC investigation. They can't have full knowledge of every association players and staff would have. This may have been a broad directive to all players and staff attached to the MFC
  7. B: Garland Frawley Terlich HB: Strauss McDonald Grimes C: Evans Sylvia M. Jones HF: Byrnes Pedersen Howe F: Davey Gawn Watts R: Jamar N. Jones Trengove I/C: Tapscott Bail McKenzie Sub: Blease or Kent Ins: Strauss, Mckenzie & either Blease or Kent Out: Clark/Viney - injured, Jetta - suspended Mckenzie to match up on Rich, Bail to run with Rockliff, Gawn/Jamar to remain as close to goal square as possible unless at stoppages in front 30m allow and rotate between themselves resting in this role whilst not playing followers role, Watts to lead into space behind HF.
  8. Yes but Black played for their two's on the weekend and will be brought in for a bit of leadership through the middle, may struggle to run out the game but will come in if 60/70% because they will want to set the standard early
  9. + 1 yes he absolutely knows how to run and spread, in 2010 I thought he and Trenners complimented each other really well and would be a great midfield combination for years to come. But that is history now and Scully is no longer of interest to me unless we are playing GWS
  10. 6. Jack Grimes - is and will continue to develop as a leader 5. Jack Trengove - starting to get fitness back, tackling machine 4. Max Gawn , good at bounces but provided more around the ground which is what we have been crying out for 3. Shannon Byrnes - Showed a lot today answered a lot of critics 2. Nathan Jones - once again you know what your going to get 1. Michael Evans - stepped up when needed to Unlucky Howe, Bail & Pederson
  11. He actually improved in the second half, was not great but the guy is actually mentally shot at the moment, there is a choice he plays the next 3 weeks straight at Casey where he makes a statement and can't be left out or he plays again next week. My gut tells me to play him again next week
  12. Kind of agree, whilst you are no use to your team when you are on the sidelines, sometimes you need someone to take one for the team, a bit like the young Hawks under Clarkson decided to draw a line in the sand and Richie Vandenburg stepped up to show they weren't going to be pushed around anymore. On the flipside GWS and Whitfield in particular are hardly as physical as the Bombers side of that era
  13. I know what you say but we can address the bad tomorrow. Wins will be rare this year but living in Perth I go to work tomorrow after a Dees win and both WA sides losing, that will be even rarer!
  14. Malthouse was the same last night and has made previous comments that it is the players moment.
  15. FFS Stuie, they are going to be few and far between, just allow yourself a few hours of enjoying the win. Tomorrow we can conduct the post mortem of what occurred in the middle two quarters
  16. Like everyone I will just enjoy the win and allow myself to do so for the next few days. Two really bad middle quarters, the boys showed some character in the last when we faced a nightmare scenario especially after the week we have had media wise. Learn from the mistakes and to Dees everywhere whilst you may not be happy with the overall performance just allow yourself to enjoy the win for a couple of hours at least.
  17. The only positive I will take from Clark's foot being on ice and not being on crutches is it may well not be a recurrence of lis franc, still a big concern though
  18. The result does not matter now, the decisions will be being made tonight, even if we stumble over the line it will only delay the inevitable. Really everytime I think we have hit rock bottom the club continues to surprise me.
  19. Have to say BH it has crossed my mind over the last 20 odd hours if the board are losing their support with Neeld and they can find anything in the contract which has been breached relating to the current revelations this will be an opportunity for them to act and not be faced with big payouts. If this is the case and they take it to the AFL I believe they will receive full support in taking action against anyone who may be implicated. Then again will wait and see if there is any truth in this Healy rumour
  20. Sorry WYL I will correct you 3 years ago we were ahead of the Tigers by a long way.
  21. We do Old Dee Red & Blue till death, the future will decide which one goes first me or the club! On a good note going to see a Top of the table clash tomorrow at Claremont oval where the Mighty Cardies take on the Tigers. Both undefeated
  22. Never give up Old Dee, no matter how bad things seem Take the pain and hang in there
  23. Dr G could not have put it better myself, one of my kids has jumped off and I would not blame the other one if he did, whilst I am in till death the tunnel seems to be getting longer with no end in site. Thank christ for the WAFL, top of the table clash tomorrow between Claremont (Tigers) & West Perth (Cardinals) it's the only way I have been able to hear the song this year
  24. I take it BH your starting to doubt, Neeld I may be wrong but I believed you were one who felt the changes he was making were necassary and would see us head into the right direction eventually. I'm not having a shot but after the start we have had I am starting to lose a bit of faith in him, not ready to show him the door as I always knew it would take time just didnt think we would come out this bad.
  25. Took the words out of my mouth Redleg, I will await the clubs reply!
