I agree with BM's point, drafting is key. It is easy to say Geelong got a huge kiss on the d!ck with their father son selections of Hawkins and Ablett, but we got priority selections in 200 (#2 and #5 in the 2001 super draft) so I don't believe we have anything to bitch about. Geelong's drafting was...

Do you reckon the first three years at 4 games 11 games 16 games Has a bit to do with those averages Seriously Yep, it moves his average from 12.46 games per season to about 14. The situation as I see it, is Jones wasn't good enough to play in the Sydney midfield, we thought he could become a midfi...

What? I am just correcting someone who said he’s never been able to get on the park or play consistently I just reminded them he played 7 seasons at Sydney before he came to StK and we got him for peanuts Lethlean would have had ZERO to do with his recruitment He was NEVER involved in list manageme...

I think you might be dismissing Jones career at Sydney As a HB he played consistently well and rarely missed I think you might what to check his record at Sydney. Averaged 13 games a season and almost identical stats to his time at St Kilda. Great endeavor, decent pace, has a real crack but a c gra...

Sub is the only place for Jones IMO. He can come on and have an impact as he has some pace and ball winning ability. Jones is a c grade mid who has a couple of good traits being aggression and a bit of pace. He can be very good on his day, but he is not consistently a quality AFL standard midfielder...

Arie doesn’t have the tank or speed for a wing. He’s playing good footy but plays the role of Battle or Wilkie, two of our better and more durable players. Unless he replaces Sharman, in that forward/ back hybrid (nothing) role I don’t see it. I would love to see him get a run and bang a couple of ...

And another one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjBhpPSY6mA King is right - if that was Jimmy Webster it's multiple weeks Ben Long copped weeks for a very similar incident when he went to play the ball but got Sean Darcy's head with his arse .... verdict 3 weeks WTF, King being logical and making s...

Howard has played with some success as a key forward at PA.

If we are happy with Corey perhaps Howard plays forward with King, that gives us two pretty quick mobile 200cm types to match up on up forward.

I stopped reading after Stocker was left out and Battle was deployed to the midfield FFS

I guess even the ‘faunicated morons’ have the right to an opinion

The coaches of the 17 oppo teams endorse this thread wholeheartedly. After they stopped laughing. Imagine getting Nas, Windy, Owens in exchange. Then taking the cash and grabbing Tim English. Is it still laughable. English and Rowan swapping ruck/forward. Midfield depth sorted. All from trading one...

lol, family threatened?? Where? Show me. Glad you managed to find the real victim here Curly - the guy using the homophobic slur.

What's the statute of limitations these days? There isn’t one for sex offences Have to wonder about timing though, whatever the merits of the case. I am confused by your comment. Why would you wonder about the timing? 39 years have past. Tasol. Firstly I was not asking due to thinking any sinister ...

Very odd post.

The last game LF umpired involving us was V Collingwood (wasn’t it?) where we won the free kick count 30/16 (from memory) or by a significant margin.

Why would you wonder about the timing?

Why haven't Melbourne been contacted for comment? And actually why should the club comment anyway considering it alledgedly happened 5 years after he retired Fair questions, but I doubt you are genuinely serious. Being a former high profile sportsman is the reason his name is news. Collingwood was ...

What has happened to his set shot goal kicking.

Was a very reliable set shot early last year, he now has the sainter yips.

How do we manage to train the accuracy out of our kids?

Agree he’s a couple of years away, but I still believe he’ll be a very good player. May end up on a wing?

Rookie selection option at absolute best IMO. Frankie Pickett will be a possible father daughter selection. Unfortunately I don’t rate Boston Everett as a high end talent either. Still, things can turn in a short period of time at that age so fingers crossed. I’m waiting and hoping I’m still around ...

Watched 2 GC games now Observations about Ben compared to Max Ben doesn’t get as much of the ball Ben is a better kick at goal / he’s a dead eye Ben is a lead up forward Ben is very quick in a straight line - gets separation Ben is a role player Ben has a bigger upper body Ben is is consistently OK...

I tip us to win.
Horrendous so far, but only 22 down.

Tigers haven’t hurt us on scoreboard.

Have to comeback from this.
Can’t be this bad all day.
