Cotchin is better than Oliver ?

Ive seen you say this many times on here. I've been saying for years, that the world is full to the brim, with incredibly stupid people. Try working in a coal mine, where the average income, is around twice the average i.q of the workers. If you want to fit in, just add "ay" to the end of every sentence. As for the argument about Jones/Cotchin, haven't people, since the beginning of time, been saying that the greats should be judged by their influence in finals? Compare Cotchin with Hodge. Sometimes raw talent cant overcome whats lacking inside the head. Thats not to say that Cotchin isn't more talented than Jones. I just dont think the gap is all that big.

Back on topic, it will be nice to finally have talls who fly for the ball with "elite courage" Makes the mids much more confident to take a bailout long kick, when they have something to kick to. I hope this guy develops as a top ten pick should.

What? A pre arranged strategy by who? You think the Dees wanted him, or he wanted to play for us, so that he had less pressure than playing with the pies? omg..... I reckon we might have chosen him because we think he might make a great KPF at some time in the future.

Time to start issuing bans WJ. Im sure Im not the only one who is tired of the same schit every day.

I know I would if my young bloke was being spoken to by them. They wouldnt even get through the front door at my place. Scum.

The people having a whine about it need to take off the P.C hat, and realise that there isnt one single person judging his football ability by his looks. They are only saying he looks different to what you would normally expect a player to look. Quite simply, the overwhelming majority have absolutely no fuggen idea of his ability apart from the vids, but they can clearly see what he looks like. *roll eyes*

Can one of you giffers please pm me instructions on how to post them please. oh, probably should add something to the thread. bananas...............

But this is the Darcy Parish thread Red. I think its probably considered appropriate to discuss Parish here.

As above. Re read, and get back to me. Whats wrong with you people?

Tim, can you kindly point out where exactly in my post, that I state that I dont want us to draft the kid? I've looked a few times now, but i cant seem to find it. Someone posted about his looks, so i added a light hearted comment about it. Maybe you need to not take things so seriously.

ok ok, i know I will cop flak from the PCers, but omg, he is the epitome of how we have been viewed by the rest of the teams in the comp for 50 years. I hope the kid can seriously play, or fight like a thrashing machine, because he is going to be targeted every game he plays, just for the way he looks. Looks like a character straight out of a 70's Medieval movie. Can someone photoshop a shield and sword on him?

Melksham is "competitive", whereas Suckling isn't as physical. Its not hard to see that the coaching group are tired of having [censored] in the team

What is he saying? I dont have twitter

That's pretty much the image that came to mind when I was told the story.

Had a phone call last night from my nephew, with a story about Jesse being on the [censored] with his mates over in Perth. (He works with the mates father). I asked him to send the story to me so I could post it here, but seems he was too lazy. Gist was, Jesse was on the pizz, and making a "lad" of himself, as teenagers do when the are away with mates. In the fun, a folding chair found itself broken, and the finger was pointed at Hogan, who laughed, and told his mates that he could probably afford to replace it with a new one. "ya reckon im on peanuts do ya? haha" Jesse was very happy with life, and in particular, life at the Dees. If the nephew bothers to send me the story, I will post, providing there is nothing bad in it. He hears heaps about Hogan, from this bloke. faulty Thought I should post something about Jesse, as we seem to be getting off topic.

A simple "like" wasn't enough. haha, nice work IRW

Ok, I guess at this point, any negative supporter opinions are worthless, so, with that in mind.......... Jake, thanks for choosing to accept the offer to play for the club that I support and love. I hope you can bring a determination to apply yourself to play at 100%, for 100% of game time, in 100% of the games we play. We are in desperate need of this application on our list. Once a trade is done, you are a Demon, for good or bad. Please, please help our team become a good one. faulty

Wada, just, WADA I hate to see the bummers get any value from players who are about to be banned. They will be laughing their heads off with this trade. The delaying tactics, and stupidity from opposition recruiters, has really worked well for the cheating filth. *If by some chance they are found not guilty, I think he will be a handy player for us. Looks like we really are trying to rid ourselves of a soft underbelly, by bringing in competitors. Hope it works better for us, than it does for essedun.

Not a shot at you personally, but how could anyone trust the clubs judgement, with regards to a specific WADA outcome? WADA are not appealing for fun, or to fight a losing cause just to show the world that they will chase the accused all the way. They are appealing, bacause they feel that the essedun players are GUILTY of using illegal, performance enhancing drugs, which may end in a 2 year ban for all players involved. Melbournes heirachy cannot have any inside info, as this is not an episode orchestrated by the AFL, or its lackeys. If they are found not guilty, and we trade our third round pick for Milkman, then all is good, and I would be reasonably happy with that. BUT Trade anything higher, and have Melksham put out of the game for ANY length of time due to a guilty finding, and I would be up the front, leading the chorus of voices demanding that whoever orchestrated the trade, be run out of our club forever, and that includes the coach in waiting. Simply cannot believe that we are looking at anyone from essedun. And if the scummers actually did ask for first round pick and Howe, then I would settle for nothing less than pushing him through to the PSD, and giving a nice, oversized, lengthy middle finger to the filthy scum.

Agree 100% Lam That line of thought needs to be applied to trades also. Ability under pressure is a non-negotiable in modern footy. Just ask the dorks.

Im not sure he has the natural defensive instinct for a lockdown defensive role. Panics far too easily under pressure, and it would be intensified deep in defence. I think his only hope, is to gain a massive aerobic tank, and play the loose wingman/linkman role. I just dont think he has the game brain to be a very good player in any other role. Hope im wrong.

Really? I just thought they finally found the correct position for him. I always thought his skills were quite sound, he just couldnt find enough of the ball as a forward. Was always a closet fan of Jetta. Loved his toughness, and fast, "play on" style. People like Grimes have never possessed that.

I agree with Picket Fence on this. Wines - massive miss Toumpas - massive fail OK, none of us are full time recruiters, but Jimmy appears to me to have the same, "freeze like rabbit in a spotlight", as one ex co-captain. Deplorable disposal under even the smallest pressure. We have all seen people improve their disposal (N.Jones), and their physicality (Watts), but can anyone name a player who has improved out of sight, his awareness, game sense, and disposal under pressure? I cant think of anyone off the top of my head.
