Mid table in terms of total membership numbers at the end of last year.

even if he does Dom Tyson will be an absolute star also, and Salem i reckon will be a bloody good player in his own right

I reckon it's 4 years if i remember correctly.

Nathan Jones might have a pretty handy record by the end of his career.

Yeah, it'll take time to grasp it, already gotta take a step back and think these boys have only played this game plan twice, it's not surprising they are making errors but they are certainly all in and that much is obvious, the buy in is what's going to make it work.

The inside 50 stat doesn't concern me much, it needs to improve but i think as our execution of the game plan does so will that, we are getting the ball enough to win games that's a huge bonus

Watts fixes his tackling and physical presence in the midfield as i feel they're his two biggest flaws as a player and i reckon it will go a long way towards him becoming a genuine A grade footballer.

I think part of it is as Daniel cross said, trying too hard to stick to the game plan and not playing off instincts, and there are also alot of instances of players up field not running hard enough to provide and option so the 1st or 2nd kick out of the backline is abit more dangerous than it should be

I'm not sure there backs are up to stopping Hogan, Dawes, Fitzy and Howe if we smash them out of the middle, the scoreline could get as bad as the GWS game.

PJ isn't silly, if he thought it would have any bearing on Roos ability to coach us at 110% he wouidn't allow it,

I agree, it's hard because the four rookies we i have a i reckon have decent upside, i reckon there would have been debate between him and Neville Jetta as to who got re-rookied.

I didn't use the word weapons.. and he played some promising games at casey, i remember him kicking 5 goals from half forward towards the end of the season and alot of posters hoping he'd get a run in the 1's, can completely understand why he was delisted if you're on the list of a team that wins 2 games and don't get a run there is normally a reason for it, but i felt he might have shown enough to be looked at for one more year, even as a rookie

The longer the successor isn't in place the better imo, i reckon he is getting a taste for the job again, wants to win us a flag and go down as one of the greatest coaches of all time.

Thought he had some attributes that were good, a year under George stone and Roosy we could know more about him

I reckon we will beat them by 35 points, i reckon we will be too good out of the middle, which is strange to say, without Steven, Dal Santo, Hayes, Wellar, their depth will be tested, Mcdonald and Chippa should be able to do the job on rewoldt and i reckon Hogan, Dawes and Fitzy will be too much for their defence, reckon Vince, Toumpas and Watts will love the space an inexperienced midfield will give them and drop a few down the forwards throats.

Taggert looked okay at times to me, i understand why we delisted him but i thought he was probably worth one more year, or re-drafting as a rookie

before that 2000- Essendon - Melbourne 2001- Essendon - Brisbane 2002 - Brisbane - Collingwood 2003 - Brisbane - Collingwood 2004 - Brisbane - Port Adelaide 2005 - Sydney - West coast 2006 - Sydney - West coast

That's true, Neeld was an extremely highly rated assistant so you never know until they are on their own

I think Jesse Hogan will really benefit from either Dawes or Pederson being in the side with him, another hard working forward to take the pressure off him a little bit.

Hope the new CEO gets rid of Sydney's living allowance it's insane that a team can win a flag with over a mil spare in their cap to throw at Tippett and Buddy

I used to hate listening to Roosy, he was just to bais towards the swans, it's amazing how things change when he is on side.

I tend to agree, we either win by 40 plus points or we lose, losing would be devastating for our confidence, winning would be fantastic and set us up for a much better year, i truly believe by the end of 2014 we will be good enough to match it with all but the top 4 teams consistently, and have a platform to attack finals footy in 2015.

Port were in exactly the same situation and i have heard Alan Richardson was a huge part in turning them around so quickly, having said that we are so much better than we have been

I reckon Luke Shuey will get a huge offer from us at the end of 2015.
