Do not use personal abuse myself as it says more about the writer than the subject!

Seen enough of your posts to know you get pretty personal. Calling people FILTH for example.

So how does that make him racist? Sorry forgot Roo is an albino African! Why do you think your above everybody else and there is no need to use the quote option and we all have to work out what the <edited by mods> you are talking about. <edited by mods> <warning for abuse and swearing>

Gwilt is should not be our nos1 backman. Blame the recruiters. I agree with that, but then what's his best position? Key back is his best position, because there is no one else. Maybe Riewoldt would should put his hand up to cover the tall opposition backmen. I wonder how much better he would do th...

James I was certainly pissed off with the finger pointing, umpire pleading sook that was Roo for a couple of years. I also thought he shouldn't be Captain, that Lenny should have. This year he has been magnificent. Apart from his handballing to team mates standing 2 inches from him as soon as he ge...

Given a performance like that should there be a top 6?

Some posters gave Gwilt votes for this game.
So maybe in our top 6 wasn't so off the mark as you think.
Each to their own eh.

He's a hack

Why do people need to bag our own players. i dont get it. How does it make you feel better. Its actually crap. For a start he doesnt pick himself.

Not only does gosaintas bag James Gwilt, but there is a long history of him/ her bagging Roo.

He's a hack he had an ok year behind Zac, Fisher, Dempster and Raph. Pretty much unaccountable and able to slowly swing onto his left side and kick when he has time - otherwise he will just cough it up. Under pressure he is clueless. One on one he is hysterical. Pretty much just grabs his opponent ...

Whoa there james. I have no idea where you are going with this but the fact that Gwilt is a hack has nothing to do with his ancestry. He's just finished. Time to go. That's it. Watch him in a one on one - clueless. Watch him under pressure - clueless. Watch him handball - clueless. Watch him get ca...

How was he in our top 6? Given a performance like that should there be a top 6? I'm curious too, I don't have him in our best 10 in a game where we were flogged. Riewoldt, Hayes, Dunstan, Ray, Dempster, Saunders, Armitage, Curren, Steven, Newnes at least, had more impact. Read it again, top 6 for e...

To even suggest such a thing indicates they way you think James. Poor call, and if the first thing that pops into your mind when a player gets critisised is the colour of their skin... You should adjust your thinking. What has perfectly debatable footy opinion got to do with race?! It wasn't the fi...

Perhaps i'm naive but I took it more of reward for hard work... i gave him a clap when he clunked one in the melbourne game because he kept going up for them and was unlucky enough not to be able to hang onto them... but to his credit he kept working... I must have missed the spirit of the cheer/je...

Moved to Perth 3 months ago for work, what is my best approach to getting a ticket for this weekend's game.
Ticketmaster online has no tickets available as of last night.
Cheers.

You really are fearless.

yup second best player against a team widely picked to be the wooden spooner.

The guy is a piss weak soft c**k

Love to see you say that to his face.

Spot on, hard to remember a player who gets his hands to the all s often only to drop the mark.

Quite frustrating can take a spectacular mark only to then drop a simple one.

Let's stop carrying on about Siposs. He is the Mark Cosgrove [ cricketer ] of football Cosgrove should be opening the batting for Australia.... His lack of discipline and not adhering to team rules doesn't make him less of a talent.. Nor has it held him back making runs... Sure, he couldve made mor...

Siposs...there's a good chance Richo will have a one-on-one with this young lad. I have no contacts at the club at all, just guessing that Richo will believe an honest appraisal and discussion will clear the air and give Siposs some much needed direction... e.g. "Arryn, look, nothing leaves th...

Hope this doesn't mean we are bust.

There is no doubt that Choco is a nutter but so what...plenty of nutters coach good teams. Look at Clarkson. If his team was crap he would be seen as a crap coach. He has a star team and is seen as a guru. Sheedy, Malthouse, Pagan, Hafey, Choco and Clarkson - all pretty much insane yet they are pre...

Jamesmc your initial post implies he is not a good coach - I don't think you have any knowledge one way or the other (neither do I). You also have no understanding of what is going on in the process so why assume the people in charge aren't making the right choices or interviewing the right people....

If you're going to make a statement like "surely not the next best coach" then surely you must be an expert on the matter. Please regale the forum of your insight and list of replacements in preference with attributes. ....or surely you are kidding Of course i'm not the expert as i assume...

Parkin 1978, 1995 Jeans 1966, 1989 Malthouse 1992, 2010 Matthews 1990, 2004 Kennedy coached 60's then mid 80's Barassi 60's and mid 90s Hird was out of the game with no experience Roos 2005....

Not terrible

When was his last official game as coach? They say the game evolves monthly, let alone the years since he last coached. I'm saying OLD SCHOOL.
