Grimes was dropped for the opening few rounds last year only coming in after injuries to others. He was dropped twice again during the year before succumbing to injury. Considering his disposal and decision making hasn't improved that much I think he's cooked. He's part of the reason we get bogged down in out backline. As we try to advance as a group we need flexibility, I would also try players like Stretch and ANB along with White off half back. Essentially Grimes is the new Jordie, can't fault his application and the way he goes about it but his skills aren't up to it. Playing off half back he needs to be damaging by foot and he's not, blame coaches for gameplan and culture but not his inability to kick the footy.

Good point, some players simply thought that by Roos coaching they would become a better side, they didn't realise that they had to put in as well.

A new thread....surprise.

BB I'm happy they got done as I think they deserved to. I don't have any sympathy for them and I hope Jobe looses his Brownlow. I understand and agree that Monfries could have chosen to say something during his medical/interview with Port but chose to say nothing, just as no one tells their employer if they use recreational drugs. I just think their legal team will work that angle. Having said that if I was the defense I would simply argue "would it have changed your decision as you went on to pick up Ryder anyway".

I think there is a case for Monfries but that's where it ends.

I'd be wanting 80 points as a minimum Dazzle.

Great point.

Team names next to the rounds....

If we can't beat them this season at any stage we haven't developed as a side. We should be lining them up for a royal pantsing.

My thoughts with regards to averages when applying them to football is what are the variables. When comparing two players averages on a stat like rebound 50's I would consider how many games the two played together/individually and the quality of opposition for those games. Then i can get a greater appreciation for the worth of the stat.

I don't think we should play Hogan/Dawes/Pedo all in the same forward line. It's too much, we need another mid instead IMO. Yes Hogan will be targeted, that's where Watts and Pedo need to really step up. Whether it is Pedo or Dawes we really need some consistency, as we know both were injured at different stages last year. PETRACCA HOGAN GARLETT WATTS PEDO KENT When Gawn goes to the bench Pedo plays ruck and we can put another mid (VB/KENNEDY) up forward for a couple of minutes and mix it up a bit. If teams look to double team Hogan and Pedo can just hold his own and be competitive enough to warrant watching Watts could/should run riot.

I haven't missed the point at all.

Someone doesn't agree so they're automatically wrong.

First and second year players maybe, the rest no.

Very nice, high five.

Don't temp me....please.

Mitch White.

Puff puff

Better off with Majak.

True, we could just add him to the list of others that are currently cashing in, I can think of at least 4.

Demonland being the exception....

Self imposed ban of any media, social or otherwise, at least until the tennis finishes and the pre season starts.

2015 games played. 20 - Garland 10 - Salem I see what your getting at but Salem may not of been the best example. Ideally this season we will have good users of the footy on both back flanks not just one.
