  1. Will probably come out and have 30 and a couple of goals saturday
  2. Well done to everyone who has jumped on board! exciting times ahead!
  3. very concerned about his future in the AFL
  4. If every player on our list was as professional as JT we'd be in for a very successful few years ahead.
  5. Points for is a very relevant stat for us, we know our defense is pretty good and our midfield is growing, if we could hold an average of around 80-85 points per game ( a two and a half goal improvement ) i think we will see anywhere from 8-13 wins
  6. I think Garland is the best match up for him personally
  7. How many had Scully played when he caused the media circus about him staying or going?
  8. One point i will make is that Craig Jennings is not getting enough credit in the media, i have no doubt he has been every bit as influential as Goody or Macca in the improvement we've seen so far this year.
  9. I think our new ball movement does expose us to the risk of being a little more scored against, i think if our skills are as they have been in the NAB cup, one of the better sides may get hold of us in a bad way, i don't expect any 100 point smashings though
  10. What rubbish, Jesse and his manager have both publicly expressed his loyalty to the MFC, and a preference to stay in Melbourne the city, i have said it for a while now, teams like Collingwood and Hawthorn are a bigger threat then teams like Fremantle, but i believe very strongly that Jesse is waiting for the new deal thingy to work itself out before committing again
  11. last year our best footy was good and our worst awful, i personally thought we were a long way off our best for all but patches in the NAB cup, and still won three out of three, being able to win when you're not at your best is what seperates the mid range teams from teams stuck in the middle who can't take the next step, like Richmond.
  12. That's rubbish imo, he is a professional athlete, he is responsible for what he takes, age and inexperience are no excuse, even at under age level they learn about this.
  13. I found what Heppell said quite annoying, yes the club let him down, but not as badly as he let himself down, he as a professional athlete, is, always has been and always will be 100% responsible for anything and everything that goes into his body, the only way that isn't the case is if he was lied to, which sadly we can't rule out. I can't see any reason why every single player wouldn't want a list of everything they've ever taken so if anything like this happens they know they were fine.
  14. Fantastic news about Trenners, will certainly make it down to see this!
  15. I think Goodwin is pulling the strings, Roosy will just cop the heat if things go south, not a bad person to have incase things don't play out right away
  16. Bottom line is had Christian not been silly enough to try and dunk during his ACL recovery, he'd be lining up for his first game in round 1 and would have played probably most of the NAB cup. he's cost himself and more importantly he's cost the team and that's unacceptable.
  17. a big area we've fallen down against them in the past is Mumford has killed us, he imo isn't near 100% and Gawn is more than capable of matching his best footy so it should be a ripper game
  18. I think the next step is very much getting everyone at the club to raise the bar, our expectations from 2016 onwards have to be that we are a finals team and anything less is sub par.
  19. It depends, apart from Ward, i don't think many of those blokes can match some of our blokes for contested ball consistently, but on the outside they'd kill us, we saw this in round 2 last year, when it was a contested game we got right on top, when they got their running game going they destroyed us.
  20. us by four points, Hogan to kick a tough goal from a bad angle in the last minutes, Watts BOG
  21. Mate, you have no idea what you're talking about... MFC were the ones who threw that trade out there because they desperately wanted Jake Lever, knew they'd have to give up something significant to get a pick like that. i don't think it's fair to say Jack wasn't/ isn't loyal and this isn't a reflection of a good leader. multiple "great" captains have considered moves to other clubs.
  22. How's the style of play? are the Scorps channelling the Simon Goodwin ball movement?
  23. How's ANB going?
  24. Interchange cap, expect players to need longer blocks of training coming back from long injuries to 1. be able to run out the games and 2 being able to run them out so comfortably that they aren't risking injuries, CP5 is a gun and definitely worth the wait.
