Hey my fellow supporters of this great club.Have been wondering something lately that you guys might be able to help me with.
I recall when Cuzzy went to the tiges,there were a few that claimed they were following him over and becoming tiger fans.Just wondered now hes retired,have any come...
Yes Shuey is more damaging.He is more explosive away from stoppages than kerr is.He breaks lines and is a 70-80 metre player(carries it 20-30 metres and kicks it 50).He is better than kerr hitting targets by foot,and he is more of a goalkicker than kerr.
So based on that,yes he is a more...
There is something really pissing me,and the club needs to ring gieschen and complain about it.
How many more times is Darling going to be manhandled and scragged in marking contests and not recieve a kick for it?Fair dinkum,its disgraceful,i reckon ive counted about 7-8 in the last month...
Chris Watermans son Alec is in the WA state 16s which will contest the national championships in Sydney next week,and he most definately qualifies as a F/S selection for us.Have no idea how good he is,as ive never seen him play,but to be in state 16s,you have to think hes a reasonable player...
Agree about Kennedy,he is crucial to our structure.Can get by without Nico an Embley,even though i want them back in the side but really need JK up front.
Hey Guys,wondering if anybody can help me out,as im slightly confused about something.I wouldve thought Kennedy and Nicoski would be down to around 4-5 weeks to return given the 12 or so weeks prognosis we were given when they 1st did their injuries.
Just was on the eagles website and has...
Re: josh hill
Ive come to take some humble pie.Have been suprised with Hill,didnt think hed have much impact for us,based on watching his performances with the Dogs.Have to admit so far ive been wrong about him.Has been good so far,needs to keep playing with the same intensity.Just hope he can...
I think in hindsight getting rid of Mcdonald was a mistake,but the other 2 was the correct decision imo.I think a big problem is the lack of senior players who are leaders.Id have given the captaincy to Jones,as he leads by example and has a crack whenever i see the dees play.
We need to...
Agree with the OP.My mates and i were talking about this a couple days ago.Has us absolutely baffled why he was given another contract.Tiges have barely improved under his tutelage i reckon.At the very least,the board shouldve waited to see how the season panned out.
Re: Luke Shuey on Crutches
Swift is not AFL standard.Its as simple as that.Its been so obvious for a couple of seasons now.Cant believe people think otherwise :eek:
Hey just wanted to say very well played tonight,and good luck for this year.Signs so far have been pretty good id suggest.The main test being to keep up consistent,4 quarter efforts over the course of the season.Do that and id suggest youd be knocking on the door of the top 8.
Hey everyone,wondering if anybody knows if there will be wafl coverage on ABC this year?Havent heard or read anything since around sept last year,when there was talk it was going to be scrapped.
Am hoping it remains,as i always like to watch our young boys coming through to see if weve got any...
Re: josh hill
I think theres no doubt if hes going to get games at all,it will be as a forward.I dont think defence is an option,Rosa and Embley seem entrenched on the wings,If i recall correctly Gaff played there quite a bit too.
So it only leaves the forward line and i dont see a spot there...
Re: josh hill
hmmm not sure i agree with that.Dont think he has the heart to play back there.Playing in defence you gotta be desperate back there(hes too lazy i feel)and theres a lot of contested situations,something he doesnt like,hes an outside player.
Plus i dont feel his kicking is good...
Re: josh hill
Yes we all know he has ability and if switched on could be very handy.But who do you believe he is competing for a spot in the side with? and which position do you think he play if he does get games?
josh hill
Just wondering everyones thoughts about where Josh Hill fits into the team.Like which position he is competing for a spot in the team,Or if you think he is in our best 22.
Personally i see him competing for a spot in the forward line,but dont see a spot for him.
My forward line ...
You sir are a very poor judge.Shuey is a gun,and anyone who thinks otherwise is clearly deluded.
Best young mid in the game,Rockliff included and yes i do rate him,but hes not as good as the shu.
Saw Koby Stevens and Brad Sheppard together the week of our prelim final against Geelong on thursday night at Garden City in the food court.Stevens is built like a tank.So glad we didnt trade him.
Who? Dalziell? Id suggest he was kept for midfield depth.We had a dream run with injuries this year,next year we might not,i cant see him getting games unless a lot of mids are injured,hes back up only.Can see him being delisted next year.
Neates was probably kept coz we are desperate to find...
Why is everyone so suprised? he was a prime candidate.What is it? 2-3 games in 3 years? If you dont get games your in danger of being delisted simple as that.
Added to that.He plays in the backline.We have a shitload of defenders of front of him.And he was never gonna be given a run as a...
Cant see crows making the 8 next year,List isnt good enough atm.Maybe in a couple years.Dont see them as the next big thing either.They get talked up every year and overrated by the media and never perform.No doubt will be tipped to make the 8 next year by the experts and wont make it again...
Re: Welcome Josh Hill
wheres the source? its not confirmed on drafts/trading board,or eagles website,or afl.com.au and until it is i can only assume its not a done deal and everyones jumping the gun.
source or its not a done deal.
Hey guys,hope you dont mind me dropping in on your board.Just want to say i hope you guys stand your ground in regards to this trade,and dont let Freo walk all over you.The way i see it,you guys only want fair compensation(which your entitled to btw)and Freo are just being freo(knobs).
Anyway...
I dont think we will to be honest.I think they will try and do the right thing by Brad.I mean if you offer say a pick in 50-60s,then yeah i mean thats a no-brainer that they wont accept anything like that.But obviously 6 is unreasonable from your point of view,and your next pick is 28 i...
