melbourne has had 1 good father/son in 30 years which is significantly less than the majority of clubs. Regarding Mac Andrew, he was in our academy, but the afl changed the rules after they gifted the dogs Ugle-hagan. Yes, you don't travel as much but every home game you get you get a massive...

I already did. keep up:)

my team is trash. I still have Reville and Dowling on field. Do I go Reville up to W.Ashcroft/Durham and have only Dowling on field. OR Sexton to anyone I want like Dunkley/Walsh/Whitfield and keep Reville and Dowling on field.

Mac Andrew would've been great next to May and Lever. Damn the afl is so far from an even playing field it ain't funny.

I think Daicos has improved but he still squibs contests and we saw many instances of that earlier on in the year that went viral in the footy world. He's an absolute gun don't get me wrong. It's just a rare weakness in his game and that's fine.

Cool. so basically you only think that it's a sore loser when it doesn't apply to Brisbane. You may hate how I share my opinion but we share exactly the same opinion.

Do you really expect fans not to be 'sore losers' after poor umpiring? Like, what world do you live in? Tell that to Essendon fans, tell that to Adelaide when they disallowed a clear goal which kicked them out of the finals. It's totally reasonable to blame the umpires. They have a massive...

can't believe we lost to this basket case of a club. But as soon as we did, I knew the season was over. good teams don't lose to west coast

Both are guns. But I'm taking Harley Reid over Daicos. I want a guy that puts his head over the footy. And don't spit me 'contested possession' numbers. That isn't a hard ball.

well maybe, like Rayner, you can give me 7 years of trash umpiring and still think I'm good because I umpire well once a season. And I'll make sure I umpire the worst on grand final day, just like Rayner.

Umpiring is the biggest issue with today's game. And I've said this for years. They are a 6-8 goal factor in most games. I've been consistent on this for 5 years on this board. Even when we won the flag versus the dogs I knew that half the battle was going to be the umpires not getting sucked...

10 time Brownlow medallist? Can you show me where I've ever said that. I'll await your reply.

I need to see it on video. A still shot doesn't show anything. I showed a video of Lohman throwing it. Happy to call Oliver's a throw once I see it.

I know holding the ball when I see it though. And I wouldn't get sucked into the noise of affirmation. So already I'm better than Stevic.

what's the difference between that and players yelling at other players on the field? ... Yes umpiring is hard but I can do a better job myself.

it's fine. Especially knowing that it will likely swing future decisions. That's how bad the umpires are. They get swung so easily by the crowd etc. They say an umpire will never change their decision. Well that's true, but it can affect future decisions. Unfortunately that's the standard of...

wasn't 2015 when Carlton won the wooden spoon?

lol. and still runs faster than plodder Cripps. your inability to look at their total career is nothing short of embarassing. And that's why you yourself said you preferred Oliver. You said that. You were fed up with Cripps being bad. You were fed up with his plodding and inability at impacting...

why not? you asked me. I told you which years. Why are you focussing on this year and not the total careers. Oliver has reached the pinnacle. if Cripps is good enough, he'll win the coaches award twice. He still has time. But it's unlikely.

2015, 2017, 2020, 2021, 2023 and to be honest his 2022 year was actually damn average despite the Brownlow (excellent at the start, then poor for 8-10 weeks)

lol Brownlow. He has been better this year than his Brownlow year. But honestly, anyone who values the midfielders medal is a pretty basic person. So flawed. You just have to look at the previous winners. Neale, Prides, Wines etc.

lol. a guy that never gets tagged :) Cripps has had about 5 seasons equivalent to Olivers current season. 5. Many years of plodding with multiple excuses offered such as sore back and having to ruck 3 ruck contests a game. Oliver comfortably. We all remember the Cripps game against...

Chesser 3 touches with 80% game time. yikes. that's not what you want from a late first rounder.

yeah and it's changed no-ones opinion of him. My point exactly. Maynard = Stager. Let that sink in. And the Oscar goes to 😀 Own the loss mate. You called May a chest for staging. So now it's Maynard's turn. Don't be a hypocrite. And not to mention McRae creating a flopping culture at...

laughable that you think the public base their opinions over a tribunal decision. Just look at the Maynard/Brayshaw incident, the footy public haven't forgotten. Maynard is soft. Went down like Nikki Webster in a fight with prime Tyson 😀

he's closer to 20 than 19. If 8.3 disposals, 0.4 goals, 2.9 marks is fine, I'd hate to see what isn't fine.

You'd be lying if you said that you didn't expect Maric to be performing better after a full pre-season. Next season, you'll just say, 'he's only had 2 pre-seasons' so on and so forth.

lol, Maynards was just as bad. At least May won the ball. Maynard went down like a sack of potatoes :) As you say, people don't forget :) Maynard = cheat.

Nick Watson, the shots at goal King. :)

Yeah, because he's a young key position forward, not a skinny flanker taken in the mid-season draft... Also, this is Maric's 2nd season. And he's worse than he was last season, don't you agree?
