Changes vs Adelaide
The big change I would make is to bring back the real 'DeeSpencer'... This season has either done his head in or an imposter has stepped into the avatar. He was a reasoned poster in the past & even when I didn't agree with him I could at least follow the logic. Seems to be making some pretty extravagant calls of late.

Should O.Mac and JKH Play A Game For The Dees Again?
Frost gets drawn in between the ball & his opponent (in no mans land) to late getting back to Hawkins making position in the corridor, marks the ball passes to Toohey & the rest is history. We've got problems with our defence, no doubt about that but Frost is part of the problem, not the solution. What was he doing for the other 95 minutes of the game?

POSTMATCH DISCUSSION - Round 18
Yes, but you don't see the bigger picture & positional moves which means you are reliant on the clowns they call experts to fill in the blanks. The ones who thought it was going to be a boundary throw in when the behind decision was turned over because it hit the point post & was out of bounds on the full....imbeciles.

FENCESCORE VS LUCKY [censored]
I think I would give Harmes a 9 or10 tonight 'Pick'...he beat Selwood up then did the job on Danger. He's a tough kid and moving along nicely no matter what those who think he should be dropped every week say.

Round 18 - Non MFC games
Small prop plane probably around about a 20 seater...must look up some old photos.

Round 18 - Non MFC games
Yep, mine was a while back now but a harrowing flight that I will never forget. The plane was being thrown around from one cliff face to another, a sherpa woman was screaming at the top of her lungs, one of the monks was laughing in stitches and I was white knuckle holding onto my seat. Know idea what that would do if the plane smashed into one of the mountains but hey that's what you do. Anyway, good to see GC knock over Sydney...lets hope we get the job done tonight and stay safe 'SWYL'... edit: just checked the youtube vid..pretty certain it was a grass strip when I went there and at the end of the strip where you see that cliff face there was an old smashed up plane that miscalculated left there just as a reminder.

Round 18 - Non MFC games
Worst flight I ever had was to Lukla... All others cancelled after ours, lucky me. Felt like Dennis' 'Cork in the ocean'.

There is a role for Bugg
Leg speed like for like, both as slow as treacle. Bugg couldn't go with the likes of Danger...

Who do we realistically target for a trade?
Think outside the box...look for up and comers on the fringe at other clubs, don't just recycle the same names. Trade our not getting a games or what we have surplus of & trade for needs... Look to trade in to the first round with a package of players.

The Clarry Pass
He's also quite strong overhead so expect to see this more in the future...plus he's a pretty decent kick on the left.

Mr Jones
There are some pretty mean spirited & unjustified things posted on this thread. Seriously....

Andrew Gaff
Thanks for your thoughts Adam... If you are thinking of trading Hogan in a deal for a free agent then you are highly overrating Gaff. A few might also be overrating Tommy Mac if they think we could do without Hogan.

Andrew Gaff
What is this group speak/think you speak of? Don't confuse mob rule with a small bunch of posters who want to engage you back & forth. I see many varied opinions on Gaff and most topics on this forum. I hardly remember a consensus opinion on anything.

Round 17 Non MFC Games
Ablett has them both covered 'mono'...in his whole career I honestly think he believes not one free paid against him was there, nor anytime he's near the ball that he didn't deserve one. ...plus he's now become a real team player in his later years at Geelong and believes the same above applies to all his teammates.

Andrew Gaff
Realise that Tim is a Saints supporter for a start, I haven't found him to be WA biased. A bit of a screw loose at times...yeah. ...but I guess we wait and see on Gaff. I would be looking for the next player about to make his mark or not getting opportunity and targeting them rather than or in conjunction with a big fish type player anyway. I'm sure we are...Yeo & Dockerty were taken out of Brisbane and became pretty decent players. Maybe there is one at GC, I know the AFL wouldn't be happy but it's not our job to prop up GC. The Tiges have some small forwards maybe worth a shot.

Dayne Beams
...not so sure. When he left there were rumours of a rift with Bucks so who knows. Would be a great addition to our list.

Petracca in a rut?
Fyfe & Judd could also butcher the ball with the best of them but I think you would still take their abilities to turn a match with their individual brilliance despite this weakness don't you 'S'?

New CEO - Gary Pert
By my reckoning we haven't won a game since he was announced as the new CEO. Looks like he's lost the players before he's even started.

New CEO - Gary Pert
I'm not at all sure he did mishandle the coaching situation at EFC...subsequent events would say they should have kept with Knights.
