Re: OK, we've found a ruckman
Hindsight? We've been saying it for a year! Longer is shyte, no matter how many exclamation marks you use! You'r like the necrophile,who's into bestiality and flagellation. Flogging a dead horse.

Re: Positives for tonight and Negatives
Marshall and Coffield the positives. Negatives: Obviously skills and ball movement - no real improvement from last week Marshall is being developed incorrectly - he will always be undersized at AFL level, so develop him as a key forward who can pinch hit in the middle, not the other way around. Sma...

Re: Tonight is our most important game since the 2010 GF rep
I think the most important game after the 2010 GF2 was the 2011 EF. Dunno about in between but another "important" game was our Round 16 2017 game, at the end of which, one team had high expectations and the other had no expectations. So much for expectations. Good point, perfectionist. O...

Re: Sandringham Rd 1 Vs Footscray
Battle CAN play. He sure can, big red. Give him a couple of years and he'll take a place of one of our three other big forwards. I think he has the raw ability to be the best of our current group of forwards. Classy, clean and reads the play beautifully. Is an endurance beast as well. Play him I sa...

Re: Kane Cornes tipped us
Kane is an out and proud Adelaide hater and would back Manangatang thirds against the crows. Having said that,mtheynare vulnerable and have a few out or out of form. Given the week from hell we've had, I'm heading in now with a tiny sliver of hope. It would be typical of the saints to roll a premier...

Re: pace is what it will be about this year
Pace is the most overrated aspect of AFL. Good for a few highlights and for Bruce to jizz his pants, that’s about it. Plus the difference between a ‘fast’ and ’slow’ midfielder really isn’t that much. Decision making and disposal skills are much more important, as the ball moves much quicker throug...

Tonight is our most important game since the 2010 GF replay.
It's crunch time tonight. I can't think of a more important game since the 2010 GF replay. After our lacklustre form this year, both in the JLT and the real stuff, we'll see if this season ends up as a "development year", or one in which we fire a genuine shot. We should also know by the e...

Re: trade/draft wins and losses
Interesting read and a very insightful assessment. While it indicates that the club has probably done a little better in trades than perhaps many (including myself) may have given them credit for, a lot of these “wins” are wins on the basis that we didn’t give up a lot in the first place. It’s a mo...

Re: Show some flaming ticker
Nail, hammer , head, CQS. I copped quite a flogging in a brawl on the job back in the old days. Was Kicked in the face several times and suffered numerous fractures to the skull, nose and eye socket. I reckon I was never the same again. Short tempered and quick to startle, which was the opposite of ...

Re: Paddy and the burden of symbolism
Comparisons to plugger are ridiculous. I think Hogan is a better subject. Both have huge expectations on them. Both play the same position and role. Both have had struggles with injury. Similar styles and age. Ask yourself honestly. If Melbourne offered Hogan for McCartin, would you do it? The main ...

Re: Is Hickey's latest contract to blame for his form slump?
Tom had a brilliant 2016. What affected him far more than the third man up myth, was injury. Some major ones and some niggles that effectively destroyed his 2017. Why doesn't anyone acknowledge this? He started last year in good fashion, then was injured. Upon his return, TMBK gave him no chance. We...
