  1. It's all in the mind......If you were kicking to a mate 40m away 9 times out of ten you would get the ball to him....But put a set of goal post in there ........and the pressure comes on....Ignore the post and just kick to a person or target in the crowd.    It always worked for me.

  2. I don't think I have seen anywhere that Hogan or May have requested a trade.   So all these arguements over draft picks and trade senarios are just p*** and wind until that happens.

    I don't listen to any of the trade news.

    I hate trade week(s)   It's just a cattle market with no respect for club or player.

    See you when it's completed.

    Who’s mentioned trading purely for picks, we should be targeting a ready made player and on trade those picks. 

    Who do you think will replace a 195cm 100kg KPF, 23 year old who has kicked 153 goals (47 this year) and plays all over the ground?     He kicked 1.3 yesterday and you want to trade him????

    Like these considerations, beezle ... interrupted, of course, by atrocious and multiple umpiring decisions against us as Essendrug are in a cleansing, goodie-boy mode as far as the AFL is concerned, and this will be reflected in the umpiring, for sure. Such umpiring reflects the intended game outcomes as if the Dons have 'paid for their sins, already'.

    I'd like to see Goodwin shut up for a while, allowing the players to massage their game to fix any slumps across the timeframe. Goodwin has had his chances and these have failed the team - and us. 

    Wow         Great         Umpire bashing already.   I am sure that the AFL conspire to fix games for particular teams (not)

    Umpires pay them as they see them, do not have the benefit of tv close ups or replays.   Yes they make mistakes but far less than players.    It doesn't help that they seem to have a rule of the week, every week but usually they do a fairly good job

     

  5. Just read most of the comments.   Typical demonland.    Sack everyone

    LAST YEAR       St Kilda thrashed Richmond by 67 points after leading at 3 1/4 time by 90 points    Richmond members were (again burning memberships) but that turned out alright for the tigers didn't it?

    We are at round 4        ROUND 4    

    We are 1 win off top spot.    This is the most even season that I have seen.    Any team can beat any other on any given day

    Christ Collingwood beat Adelaide in Adelaide with half it's forward line missing.

    Yep it was a terrible poor game from the dees but there is another game next week against a good side

    So how about we put all the knives away for a couple of more weeks

    Not fired up, just bemused by the hypocrisy of so many.

    I agree with you Red     The vision of Smith being escorted through Cape Town airport was not much different to watching a well known drug dealer being escorted thought an airprt in Bali.    Paki players banned for match fixing?   All back playing for their country.     Sth Africa's captain twice cited for ball tampering.   Still captain of his country.

    This reaction is way over the top.

    Righto boss, I'll send a memo to Melbourne Storm and the Craig Bellamy, letting them know of your 1st hand impressions, & that they could well save their money for a cinema outing instead, for player welfare.

    I'm sure they'll be grateful for the heads up.  These camps are not cheap you know.

     

    By the way.  How is your favorite small from the 2012 National Draft going?

    How about you ask Tyson, who dislocated his knee and had to continue walking/ running as there was no medical assistance in attendance

    How about you ask Hibbert who had a heel soreness but had to continue walking/running as there was no medical assistance   Missed the first 4 games.

    How about you ask Salem who had concussion but had to continue walking/running as there was no medical assistance and had concussion issues throught the year, but that camp toughen them up really well didn't it?

    I don't get your last comment?    Who was my favorite small from 6 years ago?

    Not really.

    They (tigers) are more mentally tough on the the physical stuff, dishing it out, & receiving it as well (physically & mentally).

    We probably are stronger on the 'focus side' traditionally, compared to the Tiges.

    Both clubs were weak mentally, but for differing reasons.

     

    Richmond the club has never been hesitant to break our the physicality, traditionally, and their club, players & supporters, all relish that.

    This area is our biggest hurdle to get over. Bringing the physicality, the physical intensity is our biggest hurdle, and we are easily satisfied with our efforts. Too easily satisfied. 

    Insatiable is NOT a word I would use about the Mfc.

     

    The camps allow the club to develop leaders in all areas & to lead in tall the ways our clubs has been lacking in.  This is what the camps are all about leadership/responsibility, under the worst pressure.

    Jesus mate.....    Have you ever been on one of these camps?

    The main aim is to break you down and then rebuild you to a point where you usefull for a cause ie battle

    I have been on a few and all I got out of it was crook as a dog and praying for it to end.   I am no tougher than I was

    It was a debarkle last year.   3 players reported in the first couple of games, not the leadership we wanted at that stage but were they tough?

    I don't care what the media says about us......We will get done this year and we will win some gutsy ones so even is the competition.   When we do lose it will have nothing to do with a camp not held months ago.

    Don't think so. Dom is best 22 and coming off his best pre season at the dees. Assuming the calf is as small as being suggested and barring any other injuries will play most games. 

    Tyson 2017

    4th      Disposals

    5th     kicks

    4th    handballs

    4th    contested poss

    4th    uncontested poss

    4th    clearances

    5th    tackles

    3rd    inside 50's    And with a great pre season   I think he will play most games
