Yeah well you got Rough and Buddy in the one draft bucko and that's less than 12 minutes apart. I never wanted to see anyone who got those nice plummy advantages win a flag, unfortunately the Pies did but that was pretty much Dale Thomas' best year ever. I do actually like a few of your players...

Hey even Mummy started out as a pie-eating fat bastard from up country, so here's hoping Selwood puts the fear of God into this guy and he tries his heart out!

If Blitz was just a <little> bit better at goal kicking, he would be perfect for the role. He can run up and down the ground all day better than Riewoldt.

No need to hit the panic button on Dunston, Saints have a weak midfield with Hayes and Montagna out so that's why we got to have a look at him so quickly.

Making us angry by dealing with our player unfairly, I hope the players fire up and deliver the punishment the Hawks deserve.

Up in S-E suburbs of Melb I actually work with the guy who leads most of the chanting in this mob, I think he started it because he is a mad Man U fan (yes, before they were good) who wanted to see some soccer style chants go up around KP. Some of the chants are just funny, others downright rude...

Austin McCrabb?

Good post, jimmy.h.

That is so unfair! Last year when Harry was getting beaten by his man, Lonergan was sent on to replace him and often did better.

Once he and his old man put up that website in the middle of last year flogging off his signed stuff, I knew it was time to give up any emotional ties I had to the Abletts and realize he was off.

Each year a club must draft a minimum of 3 players. Unless they redraft someone they had already cut loose that year, which occasionally happens, that is at least three new guys coming in each year. A club will generally discard at least player who is not up to it each year also, so let's say 4...

There is a lot of sense in what you are saying. When Collingwood killed us, a lot of the time it was a smaller guy who just happened to find space in the F50 and take a mark because there was so much pressure on from the rest of their team. The team needs a solid spine of talls with smaller...

I really want to see the Red Mud Crab playing a Max Rooke role next year at CHF. Captain Crayfish The Ginger Ninja You know who I mean!! Something like this: HF: Johnson Ling Hawkins F: Stokes Pods Menzel Lingy could kick 50 goals up there next year, splitting the...

We can't have Mooney, Hawkins and Pods in the forward line at once, and we just don't have the luxury of keeping one of these guys on the bench now. Add to that the possibility of Brown making a show in the seniors next year, and things don't look rosy for Hawkins' development next year. For...

I would NEVER say that about Lauren!! Gary, however, fits exactly that description. :D

As someone mentioned previously in this thread, I think he should play the role that Maxy did in 2009. We all know what a great mark and kick he is for goal.

Perfect opportunity to unveil our "anti-Saints footy" gameplan that is gonna help us beat the Pies too....:rolleyes: All I'm sayin is, Scott has said he is not going to tinker with the game plan too much, but surely more than a little bit of change is needed to beat those teams that evolved...

Did we get rough treatment by the umpires early on? That's what I seem to recall - the details of the incidents have been forgotten in a blur of fury and disbelief - there was a blatant hands in the back by a Pies forward that was missed - can't remember the others. Is it possible that we were...

Re: Another crack? or transition? The more we persist with our bunch of older guys, the more younger players we will bleed to other sides and the worse will be the fall. Hang on - a bad fall - means good draft picks dunnit? Stuff that! Play the kids next year. Taylor Hunt, Duncan, Menzel...

Re: Team v Blues Absolutely, I think it's a mistake to drop leg speed against Carlton - I remember what Armfield did to us last time running off half back - and Taylor Hunt is our version of him. We can mitigate the drop off in leg speed though by actually playing with determination against...

I was reaaaaallly looking forward to some good news on the 2s after last night...

Yes I didn't mean copying our gameplan, it's well known they like to hug the boundary and at some stages we were making it hard for them and ensuring we were well manned up on their wing runners. I thought that perhaps we were going to have their measure here but it broke down again after the...

I am sick of our gameplan. Collingwood are almost playing the style that won us a flag in 2007, we used to go man on man when opposition kicks out from our points, and lock it in our F50. Now we play this zone defence shit and the opposition can get it through too easily. They don't exactly play...

Can't help but think the AFL are pleased at the destabilizing influence this is having upon our club, let's face it, us winning another flag is BAD for their business, they want the love shared around. Let's stick it up them and get another flag with Gaz, if he can actually hold it together...

Would be happy to see it bombed in if there is support. If the handball chain looks like it is running out of gas due to opposition midfield press, bomb it up and get Stokes/Byrnes/Varcoe front and square. So many times we bomb it in to get it rushed out again.

We're the hunted again. Teams know how to beat us - go for broke playing high pressure football and don't allow us to link around the back of clearances. Just keep pressuring the ball carriers so that our handballs will eventually get turned over. Even an average team can play above themselves...

Apart form Carlton where he could have kicked 4-5, the Hawks and Saints games were punctuated by that lock-down style of play making it hard for our mids to kick it nicely to a F50 lead, also Pods was double tagged a bit against the Hawks, and Gilham did okay against him. In these games a tall...

Hawthorn are gathering steam now and nothing would give me greater pleasure than to bring the Buddy train to a halt next Sat night. I hate these guys!! I'm also afraid of losing to them in a GF. A pity Mooney is out as he usually does okay against them.
