Re: Leigh Fisher
I always respected Leigh Fisher as a hard working player who gave our club 100% with whatever talent he had. He had rotten luck with injuries, but never complained, just got on with it. Personally, I wish the guy all the very best in his endeavours to retain being a part of the AFL code. His umpiri...

Well I'm pretty certain that Waite won't be there, so we should be OKCon Gorozidis wrote:Correct me if im wrong but my memory suggests Waite Yarran and Betts always have good games against us.
So without any of those three we must be a real chance.

Re: Luke Beveridge
It almost seems that the club has formed the opinion that Beveridge is gone. Heard on the 3AW sports show last night that the club has decided to combine Bevo's role with parts (about 1/2) of Pelchen's old role and then appoint just one person. If that is the plan then Beveridge probably wouldn't be...

Re: Tim Membrey lot to like???

Re: Luke Beveridge
Doesn't anybody have a comment about the Hun's article today that suggests that Beveridge is a shoe-in for tbe Doggies job???? Any inside info to put my mind at rest? I was getting very bullish about the contribution that LB could make generally but also as a confidant/sounding-board/etc for Richo. :(

Re: What Should We Take From Trade Week?
Its not going to be pretty next year watching our team of old vets and skinny kids getting smashed by teams like Melbourne, Footscray, GWS etc .

Re: Billy Longer
I believe that marking is predominantly a confidence issue - you really need to believe that you are going to take the mark in order to do so. Just so happens that confidence is not something that can be flicked like a switch, and the longer this trend goes on the harder it will be to reverse. On o...

Re: The lost years
Don't forget that Geelong had about 5 "cheap" draft picks under the father-son rule (before they changed it about 2 years ago). That got them some gun players and left their early/fisrt round picks to get the best available.
I really think that gave them a huge advantage.

It's all very well to say "get rid of them and play the kids" but think of the GWS and Gold Coast examples. They had to trawl to find hacks and/or money grabbers to make up an experienced support core for the young kids. You can't say that those players thought that they had a shot at a pr...
