This is ridiculous! We need his leadership out there! Those kids are gonna get thumped into shape, but Houla is gonna be filing his nails thinking he's a class act!
Silly move!
EXACTLY. Good post.
This is exactly the game to put some of these guys feet on the ground.
Especially some of the guys that have been in the side for 5+ years.
But resting Houla is pathetic.
HE SHOULD BE OUT THERE PROVING HIS REAL WORTH!!
This is just dirty Murdoch Sumbaggery.
Everyone forgets what a rabid ANTI-SEMITE Murdoch's father was, and it runs like a filthy smell in his empire, the attacks aimed at Pratt through the back door.
Add to that their anti-green stance, those dirty filth in Murdoch's empire will do any below...
What did the Houla dancer do yesterday?
Look as much as we're winning pre-season games our attack is still 90% dependent on Fev. If Houla is such a gun he should be bagging 2-3 goals per game, even in pre-season.
Really our focus should be on easing the load on Fev and topping up our forward...
Sentanta should get sacked for that for two reasons:
1. He did it to a bloke on his own team
2. He never did it to Barry Hall or Hille or Lloyd or Reiwolt - a player who counts - coz he's gutless.
Where is HOula gonna apply his 'silky' turnover skills next year?:p
I mean he's no longer part of our leaky defense, he's too slow as a middy and his last resort is as a 'goal sneak' where he's supposed to be a champ at...
With this new Yarran bloke up forward, where are we gonna put Houla?
I don't agree Thorton is our best defender, but even at his worst, he's a 'body' we have down back. Put it this way he survived longer than Teague and now he's one of our coaches!! LOL!
Kreuzer has been terrific the last two weeks and is a very exciting player..
I just hope they fix his hip thing soon so we have him play for us for the next 10 odd years, as he will only get better. In fact I could see him holding a premiership cut aloft.
If Setanta works on his basic skills, especially kicking, he will be an OK tall with some athleticism at best..But he is embarrassing at times and gets totally found out against quality opposition (like all crap players), and his role will be questioned over the next few weeks as other young...
And Whitnall won it the year before and where is he now???
Carrazzoo won it in one of the worst sides of recent times, as opposed to say winning the B&F for Gellong, for instance.
Sure he won it, but he's been totally lazy this year and hasn't really impacted games the way he should. He needs...
Kennedy should be in the Weagles team, as they had the WORST forward line EVER for a premiership team..
They won that flag since they had the best midfield EVER, but not forward line.
Now that they have effectively destabilised that midfield, they should give JK a run, as their forward line is...
The defence seems to have matured a bit the last couple of weeks, though they are not perfect. Waite, Jamo Thornton are trying their guts ut, but Bower did some really stupid things. Griggs also tries, but these guys are a work in progress. I still think we need to recruit a hard-nut for next...
Yes it was rubbish...We still have a ways to go..I was disappointed with how Simmo, Carrazzo, Bentick and Setanta played in the last. I mean they still represent the things that are wrong with the team, and those guys should be going the distance to build depth..
Also Scotland looked ordinary...
Greg Baum is easily the best. He's really impartial, and writes about sport really well...
Then I'd pick Wallsy, just coz he cares about footy and says some interesting things.
I actually don't mind Buckley and Judd's columns, and Robert Murphy's, though I reckon his writing has made him a...
Well if he is the type of player you so genuinely believe he is in your deepest heart-of-hearts, there is no doubt he will be a perfect trade for an experienced and reliable defender to boost our defensive stocks!
It's interesting you say this, as he is one of our major possession getters, yet is so soft at the ball..Maybe Ratts is testing HOula out finally as Pagan never had the guts to do it..
We'll have to wait and see how guys like Bower and Grigg and Jamison shape up and if they can hold their own...
I wouldn't laugh yet fellow Blues supporters. Russell robertson always seems to get 'on song' against us, and this may be the game for him to do it...Same with their midfields. Stevens, Murphy and Scotland will be key players in this game if Judd and Fev are blanked out, as will be our rucks...
So how is young Josh travelling out West? Has he been kicking bags in the Magoos? He should do alright out there. Also how are the draft picks you scored for Judd? Will any get games by season's end?
Don't Collingwood have a Pink Pies Club that that attention-seeker from 3RRR runs?
I remember when I used to go to the footy in the 70s that there were some openly gay blokes thats would cheer the Blues, well before the Scum, I mean Collingwood supporters decided to make it some sort of...
I wouldn't get too excited yet about our defenders, since we don't really have a 'gun' defender in the league of say Scarlett or Maguire or Glass.
Thornton is a very handy player, but for every good game, will put in a shocker, esp. when the pressure is on...
I think the defenders will improve...
