So if Seaford is a problem for our players then they must be a bunch of Prima-donnas who will only be attracted to three or four other clubs anyway. They would go to Collingwood, Carlton and Richmond and that is about it. North don't have the money to cash in on Free agency and are probably heading ...

Our trading and drafting of recycled players has generally been poor. There have been some successes, Ray is a win, Dempster/Schneider is a huge win but then it goes back to Penny, Fraser and Hamill for any unqualified successes. Gardiner has been good when he has played but he has missed far more g...

What about back to the HB line, where he had his best impact ? No use putting him on the forward line, if it never gets down there. :!: The HB line is the only line that is working at the moment. Any move of BJ has to be to our advantage as well as to his, there is no point robbing Peter to pay Pau...

Good ordinary player and the sort of player that all sides need. Not a match winner but will play to the best of his abilities and has reasonable skills to go with it. Far from our worst player.

I really worry about our club with generation quick fix. Will they jump straight off knowing we have 5-7 years of pain before we have a chance again.

The problem with Mini is he does not demand an opponent. His role is to be a defensive forward which I thought meant shutting down the most dangerous rebounding defenders and keeping the ball in the forward 50. However he does not do this he just seems to be there to take up space in the forward lin...

This makes no sense whatsoever. I thought we had a salary cap where Total Player Payments could only reach a certain level and that all clubs had to pay at least 95% of that figure. If we are at the top of that cap with 11.7 how could the second placed side have spent more than 1 million less as tha...

I am in 100% agreement with the OP on this.

This thread summarizes our biggest problem. It should not be a case of all of the defenders having a direct opponent, it should be a case of all of our forwards needing a man be put on them. At this moment we have too many players in our side who do not need an opponent. When Mini is up forward they...

All this talk of who we would or could have drafted instead of Lovett is irrelevant. Suffice to say that whomever it may have been they would have had more of a positive impact on the club than Mr Lovett himself as to not have done so is impossible. The simple fact is the clubs trading and drafting ...

The problem we have as I see it is that invariably when the ball comes into our forward line we have at most 2 forwards in situ. This is usually opposed by 4 or more defenders so our forwards get swamped and the defense get the ball out of our forward 50 with ease. Remember in 2009 the biggest criti...

The club do not want to have to soil themselves by mixing with the supporters. The AGM made that clear enough, Westaway could not have got out of there fast enough.
