Why so harsh?

Given your thoughts on the Crows at the start of the season, he may not go so bad ;)

It will be interesting to see how he goes without the Ross Lyon shackles. I hope he plays well.

I have actually met him a few times and he is a ripper bloke.
Really wished he took his game to the next level because he is the type of guy you want to keep at your club.

Wonder how he woulda gone under SW's. I would have liked to see him play in a more offensive team cos hes a good decision maker with quite good disposal...Just never given the opportunity to show his potential playing as a defensive forward, just like Armo under RL who plenty wanted to cut or trade.

I thought you may have realised i dont have a go at many if any players and certainly not Mini who gave everything for the club.

Good luck to Mini.

Wonder if he'll be a lock down player, a defensive forward, or a midfielder?

Suns are struggling with the defensive side of things, so perhaps he will come in to take out an opposition player.

Either way, I wish him well, I liked Mini because he did whatever was asked...sad for him he was retired like that.

Brisbane has an ordinary forward line....if Mini plays forward he'll blend right in

He was not a good decision maker though? He would pass the ball off from 40 out instead of having a shot for goal...i.e. passing off to anyone that would run around the back of him for a cheapie.

His tackling was over-rated and the effort in both Grand Finals were pure awful. He might have tackled a bit however he missed so many including the would-be tackle on Ben Johnson that led to the Travis Cloke goal late in the Grand Final. Simply not good enough.

Me too? WTF is he on tonight, that almost sounded like he was being nice? I think he's having a go at you personally.

I saw him play a couple of really solid midfield games for us and always hoped he'd get to be something more than we got out of him. He was an old school mid and probably a bit like a less skilled Luke Ball. I can see him flourish at a new club with less emphasis on rigid structure. Ross's style did suit all players and he's one that went steadily backwards. I think people forget he was a good player in 09 and failed to keep going from there. Hope he gets heaps of the ball and can get another few years out of his career.

They need a person like mini, they are weak as piss, lazy and overrated.... This because they (like IPL cricketers) went for cash, and are happy as a pig in s***. They have their reward.....cash!

Woeful....they may have mucked up big time with their draft concessions, they might be able to compare notes with Melbourne...

saw some really positive comments on mini by one of his team mates in a recent article.......the guy captained his state at both under 16 and under 18 level.......never saw the best of him under that prick who used to coach us.........seems he burned a lot of careers to further his own......oh well...we have a real attacking coach now......all good....hope mini becomes a really good footballer for the gold coast....
