Starting to think Wellard's partner has a crush on Membrey or something? Mediocre, poor kicks etc??? His kick efficiency this year is above 70% which is way ahead in the AFL pack (that centered ball turnover last week was a deadset shocker but clearly an anomaly) Some random comparisons Aaron Naught...

Anyway in the spirit of kinship and tolerance f**** Degoey.

And he aint coming for 6 anyway. 500k ? Thought it was 8? OK, will settle for $550, a cold slab of Coopers Pale Ale cans guaranteed in the boot after every training session and a big bag each off season. But we want full effort on game days ok. The perfecti illustration that everyone has their pric...

I may have slightly over egged the (footy) negatives from that thread. Just had another look. Can go missing for extended periods/games but can be a match winner in bursts. What would I know. See what happens. So you think he's not value for money at 600k ? Happy the price is coming down! But I get...

On the image thing, I'm not going to get into the ethics debate, but if he gets suspended by the club or by the AFL for off field stuff not going to win much ball. But he will get a decent discount on MOSH so could be ok.

Ironically we are debating De Goey on PC grounds Are we? I will admit that I had a peak on a filth forum to see what the consensus on degoofy is from their perspective. (First time ever ok yuk) I didnt stay long but the impression I got from their supporters about him seems to boil down to: - Not a...

Simple questions to answer from the cheap seats. - What will he cost to get to the club - salary? - Will he cost more in regard to brand damage/ sponsors etc? - He has now had 2 matters involving poor treatment of women. Clearly an issue. What has he done to address this issue and does he acknowled...

Don't like the board getting involved in on-field matters. It comes across as leverage to me. I think it also means that Collingwood dont want him and nor do the cats want to pay big $s. Price should be plumetting. I hope we don't end up back flipping and doing a Hannebery like super deal. One with...

Goal kicking accuracy/average is not very different than many other current big names in the AFL. But yeah take cheap shots at our good players if it makes you feel good.

https://www.smh.com.au/sport/afl/no-go-ahead-for-de-goey-from-saints-board-yet-20220801-p5b6e8.html Not too bad a strategy? Results of an article like this is that the product is devalued. The "problem child" concern of anonymous board member gives negotiators a good cop/bad cop reason fo...

I dunno. Need some cathartic trigger before Saturday

Now I am thinking lock all of the players into the danny frawley centre with gloves and head gear on in a last man standing royal rumble type scenario.

That should sort them out.

I'm wondering if Long felt he had the green light to be "vocal" to his team mates after the Ratten serve that was recently made public where he calls on the team to demand, insist, better of each other? At the same time I hope Long doesn't get chastened or even dropped for being so demonst...

Just want to put out there how highly I rate Tim Membrey as a St Kilda player. For me he has writ his name in the book and I hope that he goes on to have a long career at the club. Stand out feature is how he continues to run and present for four full quarters. Whether its his fitness, sheer will or...

Contested possessions?

Got my games mixed up. Go with a draw just because.

I disagree. Teams frequently get rattled when relentless pressure is applied. Deer in headlights, worried out of the ball, nowhere to go etc. Use a different word if you like. Bring it on.

Do I have to change GT too?

Its 34yrs since Robert Harvey made his debut and I have never seen him referred too as "RH" so why start now? If you have trouble putting his full name in the title of this thread please feel free to copy and paste it from my post Done was just copying and pasting from a note i must a sav...

Something about the way the ball came off Plugger's boot. Zen like perfection.

But what the hey. This thread is meant to be about Harvs!

And the crap about loser club, jinxed and stuff.. Long suffering but watching those two (amongst the many other greats) is stuff of legend.

The whole interchange bench thing changed the game so dramatically that we won't ever get to see sustained Robert Harvey like heroics again. Interchange also killed off those marathon like one on one battles between opposing champions. And I blame Kevin Sheedy and the leagues desire to appease the a...

"He does not have a nasty bone in his body but he was unbelievably nasty to his opponents. It was a nastiness that cut much deeper than a stray elbow, fist or shirtfront – he pummelled them into the ground and challenged the very core of their existence – their integrity. He would take them on ...

Owens probably the sub... Let’s hope he gets a run. Someone who is not getting a kick, sub them out with an apparent injury. Exploit the rule as others have been doing all season. Yep, the dullbogs and druggies cheat, why shouldn't we ? :roll: Everyone is exploiting this loophole. It is a bad rule,...

Is it another symptom of the failing "bomb it to a pack inside 50" end play? I saw the Saints bomb it to packs of weagles players on more than a few occasions yesterday "Look up for god sake. Kick it to a loose fwd." I scream repeatedly as they drag me into the ward in a strait ...
