  1. I don't rate Roos' team selections in general.
  2. I hope not. Give me Gawn over Spencer any day.
  3. Good luck to this kid, I still remember seeing this photo for the first time when we first heard of him.
  4. I wasn't watching, what did he do?
  5. I really like Jason Bennett, he's far better than most AFL commentators.
  6. Michie and Gawn (who admittedly is playing against an international rookie) have come to life.
  7. It was his first win at the MCG in Geelong colours, maybe the reality of his move set in for the first time? Whatever the reason, I hope he is doing well.
  8. Great, another Jack Watts thread. Joking! Great video, I love to see that sort of stuff.
  9. It sounds like he played well in the VFL on the weekend, hopefully he can continue this upward trend and make his Melbourne debut this year.
  10. It's not the number of members, it's the number of supporters that is the issue. I would imagine our ratio of members to supporters would be far greater than Collingwood's.
  11. Maric, Morton, Gysberts, Strauss, Blease, Sylvia, Petterd, Scully and Cook all disagree.
  12. I called it at the time, it was 100% there to make up for not paying advantage. I was just annoyed that Fyfe was allowed to hold on to Garland's jumper in marking contests.
  13. We need a show called "Open Slather" where we can get all the recruiters in a room and question every decision they make. It will be great TV and will make us all feel that bit better.
  14. Personally, I'm not too upset because I never expected us to win but I think Tom McDonald summed things up well in his interview. The players just dropped their heads in the last quarter and whilst Fremantle deserved to win I don't think the score fully refelcted our effort. The problem is if Jones isn't playing well the whole team doesn't play well and Fyfe is a beast.
  15. Yes it was, that's why he got a 50 metre (35 metre) penalty.
  16. I hope the player who caused the concussion gets reported for charging.
  17. Not that it means all that much, but go back and watch Fyfe's highlights video on YouTube and it wasn't all that great. He was about the size of Cale Morton and his disposal isn't great. Now he is now an athletic beast with football smarts and his disposal still isn't great but he makes up for it in other ways.
  18. I'm quoting this so it appears twice.
  19. He was overlooked by every club about four times each.
