I must've been tripping balls when I saw Scully tear Freo a new one in a quarter in the preseason
Staggered we couldn't give him more time.
I know I need to get over it but I'm pissy Rory Atkins is on our list and Tom Scully isn't.
I was kind of in Dan's camp during this whole thing.
He was choosing love, moving home and for a bigger pay packet. Fair enough.
I figured we had all the strategic strength and we'd make out like bandits with some high picks and then alls well that ends well.
That didn't come to fruition but...
Wouldn't be at the top of my list for delisting
I get contract timing and all that but would have
McEntee
Evans
Atkins
All well below him and quite a few more at least on par
Played 11 games including the preliminary in a side that finished second. Atkins.....
Felt he played the sub role...
Other than the clear contradiction in his statement, I respect that he's stood up for himself and his partner
Good on him
Now he just needs to put the mouthguard in and fight for his spot to maybe earn a trade next year
So the only thing making Dan leave is a girl. So we need to break them up.
So we need to get a lad to tempt her away and do something stupid.
This calls for one man. The man carving his way through the social scene as only he can.
Send the bat signal for LP7_
Do your thing bruv
If Dan was OOC or had one year left and firmly stated Collingwood as his preference, then yep you'd probably say this is an OK deal
But that's not the case and we can and should do better.
Collingwood will never be shit for a long time. They're too wealthy and have too much support to be cellar dwellers years on end
However, say Dan has 5-7 years of top line footy left. I would suggest that success at North, over that stretch of time, is just as likely if not more so than...
An upgrade to what we have but not a massive fan of mature agers. Tend to jump out and get a bit more notoriety because they're new whilst being compared to kids many years younger than them.
Averages:
12 touches. Tick over half a goal a game. Tick under 3 tackles.
Yeah but sub this and sub...
Don't love him anywhere near as much as many
He was dropped this year and I'll be honest - don't think I've seen him win a contested anything
Dimma knows his footballers, if he doesn't rate him, must be good reasoning
But
If we can get him on a salary dump deal, then spread it out and not...
Yeah maybe but then again I respect someone that supported his colleague (in his eyes) despite mass criticism from us.
Even though I agreed with the intent of the criticism that he was defending Ken against.
In Charlies eyes I'd assume he'd see it as standing up for a victim being treated...
Some of the takes are really weird on here
Yeah he tried to back up his coach and had a bit of a dig at supporters. Yeah it looks like his career has come to an end.
But **** me. For years before that he was one player that genuinely cared, had a crack, put his body on the line time and time...
I don't care if Hinkley is the worst coach of all time and I sill want him sacked ... but that moment, in isolation, giving Ginnivan a bit of stick and then facing up to their captain.
****en love it. More of it please
And the hysterics from a few is pathetic. It's a competitive, aggressive...
I'm no fan of Blighty but loved hearing him during the week explaining how he changed his strategy after finals failure at Geelong to maximise flexibility in the squad
He would play 8 mids but rotated them through both the forward and back flanks all year. Sometimes to that individual results...
That's extraordinary
I know it's only the media but for the love of god has no one had a look at where we went wrong? What we could do to improve? Had a conversation with our players on what we want them to do better?
This says in a roundabout way
"Our coaches have not done anything about it"
I don't normally like playing the I told you so game as hindsight is always in 20/20 but the two main things I said in the lead up
1. Do not play DBJ back as it robs Peter and then steals from Paul
2. Rozee being a liability in the middle and should be moved
Both came to fruition in terms of...
