Re: Team v Demons. Schneider in, Ray out

Both Ray & Schneier OOC what does that say about Ray's future?

Re: Squad v Demons. In Schneider, Hickey, Membrey

Richo speaking about Murdoch. @AlanRichardson: Hi Steve, two strong performances at VFL level but he is unlikely to play at all this week due to a thigh strain. :( Great news on Richo's extension, can someone now ask him why, if fit, is Hickey not playing 1st ruck? It was asked and he said Longer w...

Re: Richo Contract extension- 2018 ( video 1st post)

Smart move here by the club and well deserved by Richo. Next year likely to be similar in terms of performance as this year and could be hard to judge the coaching performance. If we waited until next year, contract negotiations would have centred on giving him another 3 years to the end of 2019. Un...

Depends on how much he misses next year - I suspect he'll have to deal with more soft tissue injuries.

Re: Mitch Brown?

Well I can vouch for one of our club men who is mates with Browns dad and he said he was struggling with injury all through his time at Geelong and has said he thinks he's better of at VFL level playing because the training load isn't too much for his body. That was a direct quote from early in the...

Re: In the coaches' box today

There are 2 big sections to the box. One that you usually se on the TV with the coaches, the other with the guys doing the video and the stats. I was sitting at the end of the latter - and closest to AR and the data guy that sits next to him. No chit chat really - not even amongst themselves. Not a...

Yeah, thought he did well today - fairly solid, got amongst it.
He can hold his head up, it was a good debut.
Hope he keeps his spot, he deserves that much from what I saw.

Re: Eli

Think Eli is a classic example of a player trying to regain the momentum he had before a serious injury. The expectation is he comes in and should be at his best but I am not so sure it is as easy as that. Somewhere in the back of the mind it must play on you. Going to need games and another pre-sea...

Re: Saints recall McCartin

I don't know about this "not playing or picking to win" business. Our forward line looks very potent. Especially with Rooey in the side (although I am not convinced that will happen) McCartin could easily get off the chain and kick a few. Hope he manages to build a bit of confidence. Hard ...

Re: Mitch Brown?

Wouldn't mind Brown as a rookie pick if the draft is as shallow as everyone is saying. It probably isn't the ideal time to be looking at KP depth, although with Fisher, Dempster and Roo all week-to-week prospects it could be handy to have someone like Brown on the list so we're not forced to play P...

Re: mock draft 2015

Enjoying the pooling of great knowledge from many posters. Two points from me: 1. Surely we don't draft Matheison unless he is absolute stand out at our pick. We are already well overstocked for one paced inside mids (throw in sloppy skills and it's a no brainer). 2. I don't get why father sons/aca...

Our backline depth is poor and we actually don't have many in his age demographic. Could be a cheap option for KPB. Worth a look IMO. One guy like that on the list is not going to do damage.

The guy had 15 games in 6 seasons and was plagued with injuries, how did he ever get a genuine opportunity? Especially as they removed a pin from his shoulder late last year that was causing him pain. Sandy's third on the ladder and Brown is in the "best" nearly every week - I suspect he h...
