  1. Set to be overlooked for the captaincy as Van Berlo is replaced. How many have left them now Davis, Tippet......
  2. Out of interest does Hawthorn, Sydney or Geelong do altitude training? I think Port did some this year/last year.
  3. Sick of hearing about Dustin bloody Fletcher.
  4. Rugby league could learn a lot, maybe their programs are similar but without fail every preseason launch someone does something. They just don't get it.
  5. 15000 3 game memberships, 4209 pet memberships.......The money helps the club regardless but hardly an accurate figure.
  6. Slightly off topic but slightly the same, last year in a meeting at work I suggested we replace some of our supervisors with life size cardboard cutouts. I stated we could save money and get the same output. It wasn't well received.
  7. Needs to be a prize for who ever can guess the makeup of the backline for round 1.I think the club is aware of where our list sits but it comes down to immediate needs and what's available at the time.
  8. By ready made I mean physically ready, not another "Watts on debut type build". I think he can hold his own as he continues to grow/learn.
  9. Talls do take longer to develop and that will be the case with Oscar McDonald but with Frost we have a ready made player. 21 years old and entering his fourth pre season and as Dazzledavey36 puts it "the kid is a moster". To be honest dont know a lot about him but read that he got his chance this year playing 16 games after Phil Davis and co got injured, taking his tally to 21 games. I know highlight packages only contain the goods bits but his showed him taking the game on, one occasion he goes for a run and has a bounce something some of our mids have trouble doing. He has reasonable disposal, reads the play well and backs himself. I think he will play round 1.
  10. He stands 194cm and 93kg and has a bit of go about him. Don't know how to post links but if you go to the club website-news and videos then scroll down until you find Sam Frost highlights. Obviously they only show the best bits but I'm backing this recruitment will be better that Teddy Richards to the Swans.
  11. - Salary cap - The draft - tax on footy department spending - annual handouts, varying amounts depending on club - the draw(but those games become a bargaining chip in tv rights deals which benefit us) - COLA finally being fased out. GC & GWS need to have a time limit on theirs. Wasn't that long ago Saints were playing off in GF'S. We only have ourselves to blame.
  12. Lower the gift shop prices. $85 for a shirt is taking the pi$$.
  13. Let Redleg members who take guests that are barracking for Melbourne to sit in the Redlegs area rather than forcing them upstairs to 2A. If the guests support the opposition fair enough as people pay to sit amongst their own supporters, but it's not as if bays N1-N4 are full. If they enjoy the experience they might sign up.
  14. I have been critical of Garland in recent weeks amongst others. I hope he does recapture his form as it will make us a better side. If this were to happen I would have him on a back flank, push H up onto the wing and have Toumpas on the other flank(could rotate with H).
  15. Like them or not they do exist at the moment. This is due to their individual form last year/our form as a team/lack of other players in a certain position/need for experience as opposed to playing all the kids.
  16. Cant agree here RJAYThis would be my walk up start team - JETTA EMPTY DUNN H MCDONALD EMPTY WATTS JONES EMPTY VINCE DAWES EMPTY GARLETT HOGAN HOWE EMPTY TYSON CROSS VINEY EMPTY EMPTY EMPTY I'm not a fan of the term "walk up start" but if I was a fly on the wall in Roos office looking at his whiteboard I reckon it would read something like that.
  17. Stealth tanking mode....I like it and will pass that on to mates who support the filth.
