I love Raph. I just get nervous sometimes when he has the ball. Would be more comfortable if we moved him a little closer to our goals rather than theirs. Lovett, X and Raph in the same team firing will be f...g awesome to watch next year, if they can all get a game. Lovett may free Raph up to move to a wing or forward.

Actually if you watch the replay, Byrnes only burnt Raph once.
Raph held him up long enough for help once, the other time, Raph did the smart thing and tripped him to deliberately give him a free kick, giving our defenders time to zone off and block up the Geelong forward line.
Keep Raph, but I agree he'd be more damaging on the wing or Half forward flank.

Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

If it wasn't for Raph in the final qtr v the Dogs we wouldn't have even made the GF.
Morons like doristhecabbage are just brainless haters.
I'd trust Ross Lyon over these flogs any day.
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

yet he was one of our best in two finals series running. He has come back from a terrible back injury among other things. Has had some very good games and will only get better. Yet you suggest that a VFL reserves team would not have him. Thats bulls*** and shows you up........doristhesaint wrote:Raph was great in the last half in the prelim and was poor in the GF.
I am judging him on his career so far not the last 2 games of the year
The fact that he can get very lost out on the ground is the reason i would like to see him out of the team hope he proves me wrong

Sure, trade away players that are on the verge of a breakout season
Just my opinion for what it's worth, I think Raph is actually a great playmaker....he reads the play, takes risks, yet people focus on the times it doesn't work rather than the times it does.
I see Dawson as another player who has this kind of instinct....
I may be wrong, but that is just my take on it

So if we have a crap player you think that we should keep him just because we are a loyal club , YOU IDIOT , players come and go we cant keep players just for the sake of being a loyal club, if the players arnt up to it move them on .

I couldn't give a flying duck what anyone thinks, I like Raph. Always puts his body on the line, can stand his ground and take a strong mark. If he can learn to compose himself a little and be more decisive, the critics will be made to eat their words.
He's well coached and will improve in 2010.
