they don't have a huge amount of options either and our backline is alot more solid than their's plus we should beat them out of the middle, but i agree Watts up forward would be a good move, we have plenty of mids now to cover him

Of course you can, but it's a little pointless i mean everyone saying how soft Jack Watts is, then what if he comes out and get the 3 votes in round 1 against the saints, so many ups and downs

Judge them at the end of their careers, i am certain at different stages one will be a mile ahead of the other, right now Toumpas is a Melbourne player, he's had a fantastic pre season but it's clear he has aspects of his game to work on as would every other player in the AFL

I suppose the positive is we now have a video of our new gameplan getting taken apart by a better side, will be good for the team to see what good sides are going to try and do and be able to pre empt a little bit rather than wait for them to kick a couple of goals and then slow them down

It's a shame Salem needs to be eased into AFL his kicking and hard running would add to our side right now

Jimmy Toumpas is a born leader, Captain of the SA under 18's had been playing against men for 2 years before we drafted him and winning games in the SANFL, he was rated higher than wines by alot of recruiters and he is still very young i have absolutely no issue with the decision to draft him over wines, i think he will be a great player for us, today he was outclassed by better opposition as was most of our side.

I wonder if Cameron Bruce would be worth considering for the heir for Roosy, he's had a couple of years under Clarko, been involved in a flag, add a couple of years under Roosy and he'd be ripe for the picking i reckon? thoughts?

We gave Geelong abit of a push and they're a good team, it might play out that the Hawks are just scary good and they are going to belt most sides

just curious how a few players went today as i couldn't watch the game Jack Trengove Jack Watts Jack Viney Jimmy Toumpas any info would be greatly appreciated

So will every one of the 17 other sides in the AFL i'd suggest.

I would bet my house we aren't the only team they do this to all year, i reckon this is mostly about them being insanely good

Just what we didn't need /:

Time for a sack Paul roos thread?

any big possession getters for us so far?

Pendels is the comparision for me, he just always looks to have time, and for me he is the absolute perfect balance of inside and outside mid

I don't think the loss of the big forwards is that big an issue, if we get the ball in the hands on Vince, Toumpas and Watts i'll back them to find a target up forward, and Howe, Pederson, Fitzy, Kennedy-harris and co aren't terrible

Thanks mate

what time does the game start lads?

So maybe 4 weeks just to be safe, round 3 against GWS would be a realistic target game?

I'm reading that as maybe 3 weeks, more likey 5-6 which means at worst round 4.

Really looking forward to seeing our midfield again, Vince, Jones, Trengove, Toumpas, VIney, Tyson, Michie, these blokes could play together for a long time

Still no confirmation from the club on the extent of the injury?

I wonder if he has seen Dom Tyson play yet?

Supporting MFC for any length of time generally brings on a level of insanity in all of us.

He is a world class [censored], i know north supporters and even they hate him.
