How much "kicking on goal" practice? Not that it's important or anything, just curious.

Two things I hate being brought up when a player is being discussed : 1 - He's a great bloke. (This has zero relevance to his abilty as footballer yet is used as some kind of defence) 2 - The poster that has posted what is perceived to be a negative comment than being asked if he has played at the highest level. (No they probably haven't but they may be a specialist in their chosen field, they are still entitled to their opinion)

Aggression is great and something we've lacked but it can only take you so far. Flexibility is the key.

Fair call BBO, for me it's a bit like the Weed/Pedo scenario.

Living north of the border I haven't had an opportunity to see Smith play. But from what I've read I'm looking to seeing him when he gets his opportunity.

With regards to Jetta, if any player is equally as good defensively but can offer more going the other way he takes Jetta's spot. That's not to say I don't like or rate Jetta, but it's about what is best for the team. Whilst I see the role of small forward as a specialist position I can't say the same for that of small defender. To me the next best mid/flanker takes that spot after all other midfield roles are filled. Geelong and Hawthorn have been great at doing this giving their teams great flexibility.

Can we pin this thread. Please....

MELKSHAM OSCAR FROST HUNT TMAC HIBBERD STRETCH JONES VINCE KENT HOGAN PETRACCA JEFFY PEDO WATTS GAWN LEWIS VINEY TYSON ANGUS OLIVER SALEM 14 mids 3 kp defenders 2 kp forwards 1 ruck/fwd 1 ruck 1 small forward

Last year Watts overcame the one thing that's been holding him back his whole career. His game is now complete and he is the most skilful player on our list. Maintaining the rage isn't enough, he must set himself the task of influencing more games for longer. I'm in two minds, on one hand I want The Weed to play but on the other hand I think does he need another year at Casey? If Pedo plays Watts doesn't have to ruck and Pedo is serviceable. I'll be bloody disappointed if Watts rests on his laurels, he is capable of having an AA season if he applies himself.

Equal most with Cats, Hawks, Dogs.

12 of their first 16 games at Etihad.

Demons, Cats, Dogs, Hawks all have 8 six day breaks over the course of the season. Swans and Crows have 7.

We got a bye after first Darwin game, the only other option would be to play second game in round 23.

An absolute disgrace.

As long as this trend continues, that's the main thing.

Appreciated, always interesting to get another persons thoughts. I think we're better than what we showed rd 23 against the cats. For some reason I just can't bring myself to rate them.

12 x MCG 1 x Friday night 3 x Saturday nights Anzac Day eve No Etihadhome games QB Darwin/bye/Carlton MCG Darwin/Port MCG Best draw in years.

Out of interest what are your losses and 50/50,s ? cheers

Was just having a look thanks. A big sucked in to anyone associated with the Richmond football club in any capacity. They've been on the end of favourable draws for years.

No excuses, finals a must.

Deserved, they entertain. How did Richmond fare?

Mods can this thread be merged with the Alex Silvagni thread?

Can we let him train with us over summer with no guarantee?

3rd page but we got there. Have the rest forgotten the Doggies draw in the finals.

Option 5 : Hogan works on his set shot routine.
