They are just losers. Massive losers. No one wants it enough. Our next gen are not like Port's who are desperate for it. Lazy, lazy, pack it in under pressure.
I take your point and to be honest I was angry and a little drunk after the game when posting. I suppose I mean I will not trust any of those players until I have seen them play well in a big final, specifically in a prelim or GF and am yet to see my own evidence they can. I would hope many of...
Would LOVE someone to change my mind or better yet... the players to show themselves BUT...
These players are not tough and determined enough to win the last game of footy. There is too many of them. They either don't have the capacity to perform consistently OR WORSE don't care. I worry about...
Clear him to play. I don't care about the 'integrity' or 'any other game' arguments... it's the grand final ffs! Let him play!
I like the idea of the clean slate for finals, would save us in the future for minor incidents like this getting a week because of the 2 prior incidents.
Mooney's leadership and influence on the group during our era is underrated. Other players stood taller with him in the side and he was our forward line leader for a good while. Would have him top 5 for sure.
Loved most was the hard running and patience we showed during the first half, when the pressure was on. Coming out of defence we were deliberate and waited for short options and worked the ball patiently forward, with players running hard to present and create an option. Hard running is always a...
Can you be suspended for bumping someone in the arm. The intent was the head, but he missed so that is ruled out.
Does the rule only apply for head high contact? I would freakin hope so, cause there would be heaps of arm on arm contact every single contest!!!
I'd pay him around 600-700... over 5 years (if it can be front loaded). If there is money being freed up with retirements looming, this is the perfect time to secure guys like Motlop, Duncan, Hawkins and go after Dangerfield. Who else major will we be paying??
It'll get more tricky when the...
If Enright retires this year I want Gurthrie to head back to small, rebounding defender. That's his best role IMO. I don't think he'll be a elite midfielder, but his run in space and defending skills (with Thurlow) will make us steady and help our rebound next year.
Especially if we get...
Freakin hilarious Hird calling Mitchell 'naive and idiotic'.... bit rich from him!!!
Love it was a Hawthorn person to sledge it so visibly first - nothing would burn Hirdy more!
Haven't seen any news on this one so apologies if this has been a thread already.
News on the Herald Sun confirming that the Bartel's are expecting a baby!

It was only a matter of time before a moronic, insensitive opposition player did this... its sad it happened round 1 FFS.
With Lake denying it, if he had any humility he would still call Clark up and clarify with him personally. Whatever he said hit a nerve and he should inquire personally what...
I'm glad he won it outright.... I don't watch him every week so its hard to comment, and when we play them he stands out as being a ball magnet with crap disposal.
Was surprised at how few 3 votes Joel got considering he was dominate imo in those handful of games... but you can't expect to win...
Cyril scares me as an opposition supporter.... I have massive respect for him and the GF would be better with him playing.
However if he isn't 100% fit.... GFs are often won and lost with these decisions. Teams that have a couple of players not quite right often lose. Massive decision on the...
Simple result really.
When you line these teams up... North have gone past us. In terms of talent and experience. We just have to many passengers (due to experience imo). I think North may have turned a corner in terms of their balance and experience, which showed us up. Well done to them, wish...
We cannot underrate winning a flag here... pre 2007 we would have done anything for another, and obviously some teams have never gotten one altogether!
No matter which way you look at it, Scott got us a flag. We have no idea what Hinkley would have done in 2011, maybe he would have gone another...
We are either lazy, unfit or poorly organised.... possibly all 3.
GWS spread and found spare players regularly and were simultaneously able to shut our game down.
The only thing I can't stomach as a fan is when they just don't turn up.... can't stand it. You can literally see players in the periphery just standing still. When you get camera shot up the ground same situation... no players running so we kick to contests. Effort should be a non-negotiable...
