And Carlton has won one premiership since the salary cap was created. And they breached it.

Did they get them both in one year - i can't remember?

Barass has requested a trade to Hawks - does this mean if they pay him what he is worth, Battle is still required? Not easy to bring in 2 seasoned and pricey defenders of a similar ilk.

thanks Zac - i was wondering about Sharman in the stats

Still think club house leader is Maynard. Yes. He is up there. Reid is the best option Eagles have had since Langdon.Thank god Someone understood the vibe of the thread!

Kings leading and body language has been pathetic

After a year of exploration, we have no chance to make the finals in year two in fact we are a likely to finish bottom three. He tried to make a power move and a coup most of us hated to start with. We ran along with it to see what happens as the early results were good as they often are with a new ...

MITCHY THE KID!

Then Last 4-5 efforts by Howard have been woeful even before that goal

Dougal Howard just squibbed it twice

Philippou needs to go to Sandy

a few players keeping our heads above water. Steele, Hill, Burns Sinclair, W Milera

Philippou keeps handballing to a man who is under massive pressure - makes the worst decisions.

Should be 6 goals down already

Crouch, L Henry, Dow, Clarke, Wood, Webster all would make a difference to our ball use.

Showed Philippou what a real effort looks like. - had better stats than Pou in 1/2 the time on the ground.

As long as they are Private Schooled they will be excellent. I would love to add some grunt and toughness anywhere on the field for us like a Maynard. So many times when there is a opposition player bullying someone on our team. Very few go to their aid. If you look at Collingwood any time someone ...

Having a look at Twomeys phantom draft, and assuming will have a pic from between 12 to 15. I like to look at Wilson from his bio and video. Someone who won’t miss the easy goals like our current crop do . Goal kicking tends to be a natural instinct rather than something you can build. This guy seem...

His consistency this early in his career has been extraordinary.
He just doesn’t seem to make mistakes.
Amazing year. In our top 5 best players now.

But seriously folks, I thought Phil Narkle was going to be a champ. I thought Lappin would be broken in half in his first 20 games. I thought Tim Elliot would revolutionise the ruckman role. Barry Hall would end up a sad story like Rocket Owen. Like most small forwards Milny wouldn’t last. Kozzie wo...

Retro round around the corner thought I would put out to everyone to see who is willing to admit which players they got terribly wrong at the start either rated and weren't as good or didn't rate and were good. For me didn't rate and ended up good: Shannahan - watched first couple reserves and seni...
