I really don't think this is as big of a deal as what it sounds like. Pretty much every young, tall player in their first few seasons at AFL level are susceptible to this kind of issue, the fact we've picked up on it while it's just a hot spot as opposed to a stress fracture is a huge plus too...

Hey guys, what's James Stewart's situation? Is he contracted? Reckon you guys would be looking to move him on with Patton/Cameron/McCarthy/Lobb etc. all seemingly ahead of him?

Well, that was a rough one. I'll preface all this by remarking on just how ****ing good the Hawks are, whilst the loss was painful to watch our collective frustration should be somewhat tempered by the chasm between where the two sides are at. Expected it to be 100 points, but that was still...

Warnock in for Carrats with Buckley to play sub. **** this.

There's an argument to be made for simply accepting this as part of the development phase and brushing off the ramifications of that game, but I reckon the boys really need to take responsibility for this one. The theme this year has been about building a 'Winning Culture', not just for the sake...

Aphrodite - Can I just ask why the Edelstein threads were shut down? I understand there's an order to the board and everything like that but surely this is worth a dedicated thread for discussion? Don't think Edelstein talks belongs in the post-match thread because it's much bigger than just the...

I know tonight was absolutely horrible, and that to some this may seem a really trivial thing to be angry about given the nightmare that just unfolded on-field, but I'm honestly disgusted that this bloke was even associated with our club in any official capacity, let alone having the bloke in...

Pretty uninspiring start to the season really, even if it is just a NAB Challenge game where we weren't likely to win. Yarran has been class, Bell has done some really nice things and some really shit things and Cripps has had a bit of the ball, other than that there's not too many positives to...

Such a shame this board is so dead, even an Intraclub game can't get any discussion going. Ah well.

1/2 Time: - Shiel is probably the leading disposal getter out on the ground and uses it well pretty much every time, hope we see him breakout to the elite category this year - Kelly had an excellent term and kicked a couple goals playing off a forward flank, still needs to add a couple kilos...

Rory Lobb just had his bell rung by Tom Downie in a marking contest, walking off but expect he'll be mothballed.

Also Sam Reid's just gone down with a knee or ankle, looks serious either way. Not good.

My thoughts at quarter time: - Adam Treloar is quite simply a gun - Dylan Shiel is a standout on the underpowered white team, would like to see him use it a bit more by foot but whether it's outside/inside he'll make an impact with ball in hand - Good to see Curtly running through the midfield...

Absolutely horrible news for everyone involved, hope he makes a speedy recovery.

Doc may not be the most brutishly built player at the club, but make no mistake he is a very powerful player. Doc won't ever bench press the most or have the most hulk like shoulders but when he's in full swing I bet a bloke with a few inches and half a dozen kilos on him would struggle to bring...

In fairness Jones has always gotten a little bit of hype around him during pre-season, he's obviously quite a good trainer. The only difference between then and now is that he's a new recruit for us and has a buzz to his name, obviously the key now is for him to replicate his form on the track...

Have you hung out with footballers before? One bloke saying to another that he'll be "starting on the pine" is hardly a crushing blow to someone's self-esteem...

To me it's pretty important that we start getting games into Jaksch as soon as he's fit and playing well in the 2's. Although he hasn't shown a massive amount at AFL level over the past couple of years which you can forgive in a KPP, I still really like his chances to become a damaging third...

That would be down to the difference in playing styles between those three players moreso than a perceived bias towards a draft pick a big portion of supporters were sceptical of to begin with. Cripps and Graham are both predominantly inside midfielders trying to break into a team full of very...

In fairness I think training standards were probably the least of Mick's concerns when it came to Bootsma. :p

Hahaha, don't blame Bucks, obviously Mick doesn't give a **** about the football department tax and has been silently investing millions in a cloning device for Murph. :p On Jones though, we'd definitely be absolutely thrilled to get two goals out of him on a consistent basis, same goes for...

Hey guys, hope you don't mind the intrusion, sort of think of the Giants as my second team so will likely be popping my head in a fair bit. Anyway this is how I see things for you guys starting Round 1 with injuries taken into consideration. B: Nick Haynes Joel Patfull Adam Kennedy HB: Heath...

Personally this is how I would like to see us line up for Round 1, with one eye towards having some of the unproven players getting games halfway to late in the season to give them a foundation for 2016. B: Zach Tuohy Michael Jamison Simon White HB: Sam Docherty Sam Rowe Kade Simpson C: Dale...
