Pennant St Dee

He did not make the WA team

Only a practice game so will cool my jets but on my observation from watching Petracca - wow shown glimpses of that but certainly not over 4 quarters Weid - did very well against O'Brien who is no slouch and was good around the ground Clarrie- does what he does looked a little less handball focused Lever - Impressive intercepts and looked much better by foot Sparrow- like what I saw got his hands on it a bit and will improve, a lot to like about this kid Brown/Tmac - having 2 targets was good and saw us capable of bringing the ball to ground more although must remember Crows weren't exaexactly big down back. Tmac certainly showed if he's fit he's going to cause issues in second halves AVB - stats lie, this bloke is important around the contest and impacting our ability to defend against the fast break Viney - looked fit and ran the game out well was back to influencing around the stoppages Jackson- very raw and a fair way off, but boy does he have some impressive traits, he has a fantastic leap, some mongrel and quick hands for a tall. Kossie - was very exciting 1st half but they tightened up on him which whilst limiting him, creates opportunities for others Lockhart - looked good and the full pre season has helped him Jones - set up defensive with our forward press and made the most of his opportunities. Looked to be moving well till he copped what looked like a corkie to the shin Loved the hard run and the ability to find space Langdon showed I also liked Tomlinsons game not huge stats but provides run and a link with transition as a marking target Salem - liked his game used the ball well for first hit out and going to be very important with his delivery inside 50 if he plays higher up the ground I think with Max back, Weid moves forward and Fritsch will also provide more class inside 50 Certainly a stark difference in fitness levels compared with being over run by the Tigers and Lions last year

Another game we shouldn't have lost, which will cost us as it has for the last 3 years

I don't rate him Dazzle, poor disposal, poor decision maker and whilst he has speed he makes decisions the same way., without considering all options IMO he's depth

Don't argue with this idiot, he's not a Dees fan. Fact is Garry Lyon approached Kelly over getting Ross Lyon and Kelly told him he was renogiating his contract with St Kilda. Ross blind sided his agent, which in hindsight was understandable as Kelly was also Mark Harvey's agent The troll has it all wrong again in so many ways

2005

Cheers L36 for the updates

It's a farce that Nesbitt is still in that role, he was the Architect of brushing everything under the carpet. 15 years on he talks differently in public when questioned about the health of some of those players now, but he knew a lot of what was going on and they chose a flag tilt over players long term health. I've had a fair bit to do with the Cousins family and it's a tragedy how Ben has turned out, as a parent it's not nice to witness and the media actually need to just leave it alone

Great effort in the wet and valuable win for the Girls

Have you boys not been told before never argue with an idiot Especially one with a selective agenda

Have a glance over training reports and responses whenever a player goes down at training. Deelanders carry on like we are the only club this happens to

Nothing to see here, if they aren't prepared to take pay cuts to increase Rookie wages, can't see them taking a cut for this cause. AFPA is always telling us the players have short careers and need to maximize their limited window to earn what they can

Is this thread serious, other AFL sides having injury issues According to Dland we are the only club this happens to and it's because We are cursed We didn't go on a camp We haven't changed our captains Our players are involved in contact drills On a serious note Eagles bigman stocks for Rd 1 McGovern wont play Barass wont play Oscar Allen possibly play underdone Hickey 50/50

Thanks BB, Deespicableand Saty for the training reports

Pretty much nailed it, I think after what he'd been through Jones felt those dark days were behind him

Yes Old Dee Hannans in Kalgoorlie. You probably had a few in the Exchange or Palace Hotel

It's a good thing old those changes occurred, back in the 80s all we had in Perth was Emu Export(Red Death), Emu Bitter, Swan Lager and Swan Draught

He put 2 and 2 together and got 5, that's all I'll say on it.

FMD Hackdorn won an award, as you're aware McQueen from listening to 6PR he is off the mark more often than not.

Sweet Jesus, He is an absolute hack and is not well connected in WA, may have been 20 years ago He gets a lot more wrong than he gets right, this will be a fishing expedition because he's getting nothing from Freo and is trying to force a comment.

Welcome aboard Harley, continue striving and don't die wondering. Third chances don't come often

and 2007, got flogged by the Saints

Was at that game and could see Neiter lining him up ready to lay a bone crunching tackle. Was right behind the goal at the City end and Wiz's kick off the boot was offline but veered left and sailed through. Trent Croad played one good game for Freo and this was it he kicked 7

yep, should know it's a popular quiz question

I heard a reporter say the other day only 3 players remained from the roster when they made their initial coaching change. Their coach actually selected the General manager which is the opposite to what usually occurs It would seem the off field chemistry has set the right environment Having said all that this is not unique in the NFL, both the Rams and Falcons have made Superbowls in the last decade after having poor seasons 2 to 3 years before. Very even competition which makes the Patriots achievements so much more impressive in the salary cap era
