  1. There once was a seperate board with exactly this, maybe about three years ago from memory.
  2. That seemed to have lasted about two seconds.
  3. His kicking has potential to be good (in game situations it has been average) but he is no where near as good as Tapscott.
  4. From the little training I have seen this pre-season Royal always gets stuck in to Gysberts, no matter the drill.
  5. My hunch is that Grimes will be made Captain. This is based on nothing at all, just a gut feeling which could prove completely wrong.
  6. None of the names are spelt correctly, that's the joke.
  7. You completely missed the point. The point is player perforance in games (let alone at training) are open to interpretation and whilst the effort is appreciated by the people who do make the reports the fact remains it's hard to read a lot into training.
  8. I cannot believe anyone would want Green as Captain again.
  9. daveytrain1: tappysquads: Don't read too much into the training reports people.
  10. Probably a little harsh with my wording, I just can't see Strauss being much more than an average VFL player from what I have seen of him. I hope he turns out to be a very good player, I just don't hold high hopes. A broken leg doesn't help.
  11. If Strauss is ever a best 22 player Melbourne will be seriously in trouble.
  12. Morton needs to trim down / not train with a hat on. On a serious note, James Manger is a big unit, I like the look of him.
  13. Strong northerly blowing through making skills tough. Howe is a freak.
  14. How are sales going? I downloaded this a while ago, it's great fun and looks fantastic.
  15. If you're talking about the game where Melbourne beat Sydney by 72 points, Goodes destroyed Morton that day. Goodes destroys a lot of players but Morton stood no chance unfortunately.
  16. Demon, Lime and Bitters.
  17. If you were to frame a market, Green would be 100-1.
  18. Extra loads? If a player can't kick a football on his opposite leg no matter the loads he shouldn't be playing.
  19. I don't think Clark will kick a lot of goals, but his presence will still be extremely valuable. If fit, I see Jurrah and Howe as the most likley to kick the most goals.
  20. I'm sure he is great on his right foot at training, but we need to see it in games under pressure.
  21. Take a footy home and practice kicking on his right foot in his back yard.
  22. I'm amazed that with all the free time and coaching resources available to players Bate still can't kick on his right side at an adequate level.
  23. I realise this and I am not questioning the training (I was there today for most of the session and I wouldn't know what is and isn't good), however I am also wary of the blind faith shown by some supporters.
