Re: RIP Michael Gudinski
Great news that he is getting a state funeral. Thoroughly deserved. It's just a pity the "book of secrets" that was a potential project never got to go ahead. What a read that would've been! It was going to be published under the pseudonym of "anonymous" much like the classic &qu...

Re: Dan Hannebery - 2 weeks
A complete bust at the time, whch was obvious to everyone. Colossal waste of money. So St.Kilda. We all knew it. Even the club.

Re: Ben Long
Typically condescending response. Pot, Kettle, Black. I find narcissistic self-appointed experts tend to do this when their opinions (which we mere mortals dare challenge) are questioned. That's all I did. As for the change of nic, can you offer further advice? Next time I change my mind on somethin...

Re: Marshall injury
Jake at his best still strikes me as the better player, but attitude, form and motivation all play a big role. Jake's best is still very good.

Re: Ben Long
It may come as a huge shock to Long's fans, but Sinclair's stat's are superior for 2017-20. JWeb as well is slightly better than Long 2017-19. Shock horror, so are DMaC's for 2017-19. The latter two didn't get a go in 2020 because of injury and for the coach's tin ear for his pet's faults and dislik...

Re: Dan Hannebery - 2 weeks
I'm afraid you're right, TD. You didn't have to be Nostradamus to call this one. Is the club just softening us up with the non committal piece that will lessen the blow? 13/41 possible games does not augur well for the future.

Re: Ben Long
The last on this from me. I really hope Ben Succeeds. It will be his 5th year, coming up to 50 games. In betting parlance, he's due. The potential has always been there and never been matched by his performance. Hopefully consistency comes with more experience.

Re: Melbourne coach in 2022? Ross Lyon?
What are the odds? Why do you ask, are there drumbeats out there? Could be right because if Melbourne continue to tread water in 2021 Simon Goodwin may well find his card marked. I'm led to believe by an itk at the skiers, that his card is already marked, pending a finals berth. Top 6 minimum requi...

Re: Ben Long
I don’t think Long is in the role of quarter back though. His spot as a defender is more defensive pressure and attack at the contest Sinclair hasn’t played in defence primarily to this point though I understand he’s trained there this off-season. I think it’s a bit laughable to suggest he’s been o...

Re: Ben Long
I think his surname has a bit to do with it. It is certainly the basis of the doper's annual interest in him. We have the sort of depth that should relegate him to trade bait status.

I would like to get the thoughts of other forumites as to where they see Ben Long's develop. IMHO he is still the same player he was in 2017-8. His stats seem to reflect this. He has averaged 11 possessions a game over his four years, with one year that number soaring to 12. His performance in the p...

Premiership player that season And was an All Australian at 22yo in 2000 We have to get fair dinkum when we are writing stuff, because Boomer was a potential star from very early on.

B1 and B2 for me. Battle and Bytel. I watched a fair bit of Jack in the juniors. He was always a gun. A cut above the rest. If it hadn't been for that pesky back injury, he would've been a certain first rounder. It's his time now. As for Mr.Battle, he was ways at the younger edge of his peer group. ...
