Maybe they're tanking, maybe they're not. If not then Cameron can't coach. Why would he tag Houli and let Ellis run free, any AFL coach, in fact anyone with a passing interest in football would know that Ellis is the more dangerous player. To little to late Leon. I think that is more than likely 'Macca'.

Very good today but a very underwhelming Crows, he will do that if you let him. Most teams don't, lets see if he can back it up.

I don't think that's the complete issue 'Nasher', from Roos point of view I think it's about taking a place in the team where he could be developing someone else.

Sydney off to a good start without Buddy, Membrey looking good in the first Q.

I thought the same, he was always talked up by the commentators as being the size of a KPP.

Funny, I always thought Kennedy was taller than 188.

Callum just signed a 2 year deal with the Eagles last week so is probably off the table anyway.

Wouldn't spend a 2nd round pick 'Chaser', we need to use some of these now but depending where we finish on the ladder that PSD pick could be a winner. The AFL may not like how we use it but we need to play hard particularly if they don't come good with a PP.

With his shoulder injury he has struggled to get his arms up over his head. He's taken a few more marks in recent times, must be feeling a bit more confident or just going for broke till the end of career comes.

I would be surprised if we went there, we certainly wouldn't offer a high pick for him. Stretch will be a better version anyway.

Can't agree on this at all 'steve'. I don't know his psychology or philosophy of life so I will go on what I've seen since day one with Col. He has no peripheral vision, awareness or footy smarts. He is not a natural footballer and that's out there for all to see. The other stuff is just excuses for those waiting for him to turn it around and be the footballer he doesn't have the capacity to be. So many have been sucked in by this. Gary senior had all the natural ability in the world and according to legend lacked in all other areas but he could still play. He was a natural footballer. Col is just an average footballer, always was, always will be.

That's a really good point and well backed up 'dazzle'.

No it's not....and it's been proven time and again.edit: I've been through this before but in brief Col's abilities are physical, his size, his ability to kick a long ball and take the occasional good mark for his height. These are all that he has and he can't even apply these properly because... He lacks footy smarts, awareness, peripheral vision and mental application which make him a limited footballer with limited abilities.

They wore white as part of the tribute paid to the Maslin children, Fremantle supporters who died when MH17 was brought down.

Limited ability.

Very; Ross seems to have lost his mojo at the moment.

Carlton a bit stiff to lose tonight but the story to me was how flat Freo look. Malthouse had it all over Lyon tonight and if it wasn't for the class of Fyfe then they were up right up the creek. Maybe the close win will kick it into gear for them but at the moment they look anything but a premiership threat.

More than a good guitarist 'chook', definitely a hall of famer...but yep wasn't known for his footy skills.

So was Gary Ayres, it doesn't mean we give him a game now.

Agree 'Pennant', and the other thing about these players is none of them are built like tanks as RoK is. The durable players in AFL are not heavily built and don't have to carry around extra Kilos (even as muscle) that take a big toll on the body.

The Bulldogs won't be giving up their first round pick for him.

Good authority that he wants to come home, so I've only got half the story.

I tend to do or try to do the same but would really hate to see our team running out with someone who has made the announcement of moving next season. I would expect the club to not play that player.

Ask Cam Smith what he thinks of it. He much prefers our system, I would much rather keep some degree of passion in the game despite the speculation. The only real passion in league is for State of Origin now because it can't be diluted, play around with our game and it would be a major mistake.
