Gee, our milestone games have been atrocious this year.

Our year has been atrocious, and has included milestone games

Gee, our milestone games have been atrocious this year.

They're generally atrocious every year unfortunately.

Last year was okay, Fletcher, Zaka, Hocking, Dempsey off the top of my head

Fletch yep, Zaka we lost to Geelong IIRC, Hocking we were playing Carlton so it'd be a bit disappointing if we didn't win that one and Dempsey we lost to Sydney.

So 50/50 last year, which is pretty good for us.

Oh come on, at least try a little harder. Your memory is way off.

Zaka was against Adelaide
Dempsey was against Bulldogs

Both wins.

Onya Knackers!

Can anyone tell me what happened when he gave Goddard a bit of a spray? Like what exactly happened just before/after? Do we know what he said to him?

More on this, does anyone know when it happened? Would like to see it.

Wasn't Goddard having a bit of a dip at Ryder and heppell told him to pull his head in?

I think that's what it was about, but I imagine Hep was just saying stay focused on your role and don't lose it over hanging shit on Ryder all night.

Goddard needs to be told to button it a bit more often in my opinion. Always seems to be berrating team mates when more often than not, he's the one sea- gulling out the back looking for a cheap possession. Only my opinion again, but I don't think his St. Kilda team mates minded him moving on.

I think he's a terrific player and glad we picked him up, but this trait is one of his major weaknessess. Needs to find other constructive ways of letting a player know he made a mistake.

He was the same at the Saints, at his age he isn't going to change. He gets sucked in very easily, but plays well when angry.

I do agree that he needs to hold back on the younger ones finding their feet, but if someone is out of position BJ is within his rights to tell them, he just does it poorly and comes out as yelling at team mates.

On the 4th page of topics

He must get his hands first on the football more than any other player in the comp I reckon.

 

[yaco55]

Last two games have been how a true inside midfielder should perform.

 

[Charliebrow 16]

The bloke I'm going to miss watching most this year. I really hope the year off doesn't negatively impact on his future.

 

[Dennis Trumpet]

Absolutely devastated for My boy

But I can IMagine him saying Yeah nah she'll be right.

Finding out what one can and can't do because of the suspension must be as frustrating as the stepping rule the first time one tries netball!
