I do not think they were naive, rather irresponsible in not checking what they were being given. No player code protects the individual from responsibility for their actions and following the leader is no defense (I was only following orders doesn't wash morally or legally). the rest of their behavi...

josh will be our next CHF. he has the endurance, smarts and when he gets one out hard to beat so I see him as the natural replacement for Roo. paddy will be our more stay at home forward with Membrey the third tall unless we find a new Gunston.

We are not the first to use shield/cross - check out the emblem of the German/Swiss city of Konstanz. I have found an enamelled one on ebay as a car badge! Will go on one of my VW's!

Looks as tho big mart has the last laugh

Then come out and say it Enrico. Don't use another reason for you not wanting me here. And come out and say me Steve, has mental problems as you said of P66. This will be my last post on this topic. I don't think I should have been permanently banned but once I was I certainly should not be able to ...

Ineligible through suspension

Optimism!, well though a disappointing end to the year there are so many possibilities - the unexpected- Bruce, Sinclair (looks a little like a young Sam Mitchell type), Goddard; the improvements in ball movement, team structure and buy in from the players; oh heck- its the vibe!

I am on here regularly in season, post occasionally and come for insights that , as an interstate supporter, I cannot access locally. I enjoy the banter and the jokes but P66 had become more irritant than interesting. Shame.

Who would trade for Watts?

I would like to see Simpkin, he has that hard edge good defenders have, looked good In The video from last week. can he do the same on the big stage, well we must find out.

positives: all our older players who played today worth another year, players with a few years under the belt like Savage, Webster, Newnes, Steven all improving, recent signings like Bruce, Goddard, Membrey, Hickey, Weller all showing great promise and the game plan keeps us in most games. And the c...

right then, anyone who can translate this? ?? The duds, the trolls, the grubs, the pigs, the princesses, the rubes, who defend and deflect from the real issue, I find your defence of aberration laughable, particularly when you flop down to the great AFL icon as undeniable, as if they carry superior ...

Trained with the main group today and was one of the few who continually could hit a target. But he just doesn't have a tank. ( no matter how hard he trains ) So, he has ability, can mark and kick, can hit a target continually!!! But because he cannot cover 14 k's a game he's toast??? Unless he has...

Interesting!

p66 has repeatedly claimed that if the umpires are cheating it means the AFL is also. I am not sure the first implies the latter. now I do not think the umpires cheat, but it is always possible an individual umpire has become mixed up in all sorts of nonsense and had the hard word put on them to fav...

Do we need another assistant coach??.

Some data re ruptured patella tendon: a less common injury so less data available, and likely for him a greater risk given he has had previous surgery for tendonitis, but it seems most players (NFL and NBA) known to have the injury and who have had seasonal data on their output recorded get back to ...

All those calling for Hird's dismissal must want us to win. Why not wish for both!

P66 said: and I agree! " Its amazing how we had won 3 games this time last year and the same again this year but the difference in the media and others perception of things is we now are finally building and on the up. Nothing like that last year. It was all negative. We need to keep building. ...

Sometimes plugger you say some silly things- just look at Tom Hawkins performance last week, he kept Geelong in the game despite limited opportunities but clearly showed what a dominant and strong forward can do- AND HE IS NO LOCKETT

Saynta hit it in one, if plugger played today with the rules as they are he would easily kick 150! Much as everyone here, and it is easy to say and harder to back up, except for plugger , whose stats and career speak ! He is the best I have ever seen, and the only full forward ever to win the Brownl...

Should a glass of wine at dinner, special occasion or no, result in a player being suspended? And before all the slippery slope nonsense and straw man arguments about drinking to excess, I am more interested in how intrusive clubs can become in the manner in which their players live. Should we cut t...

Stranger things have happened, so impossible? no

likely?? Why not? Hate the Dawks! Crap jumper, smug players ---------its too much.

So who is guessing now?
