  1. Great, another Jack Watts thread. Joking! Great video, I love to see that sort of stuff.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Maric, Morton, Gysberts, Strauss, Blease, Sylvia, Petterd, Scully and Cook all disagree.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Yes it was, that's why he got a 50 metre (35 metre) penalty.
  9. I hope the player who caused the concussion gets reported for charging.
  10. 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.
  11. I'm quoting this so it appears twice.
  12. He was overlooked by every club about four times each.
  13. I loved that interview.
  14. I'd love to know if that was technically correct becuase he was so close to the player (even though he kept his hands away and did not interfere) or if they thought he ran through the mark.
  15. The miss by Garlett running into an open goal was massive in the scheme of things.
  16. JKH needed to use the first option more but at least he created opportunities.
  17. He is both a star and a protected species.
  18. I realise you hate Dunn but he was fine today considering the circumstances.
  19. 6. McDonald 5. Garlett 4. Dunn 3. Brayshaw 2. Hogan 1. Cross
  20. I barely noticed Grimes but that's a good sign when playing his role.
