Ballantyne wants out - Eagles

[Simmofreo]

Give collins another year and tighten up the ease of the ball coming into the opposition forward line and Collins will be better than all those three. IMO

Agree

People forget how well Collins has played considering all the bloody ball that has been down there. Not easy being in the Freo backline this year

I think he was a good pickup

Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up at GWS for the next 2-3 years. He would get so many cheap goals with that midfield running around..

You know what I would be surprised either. Johnson has said in a presser this week he has not decided whether this year will be his last or not.

They have picket but he is untried

If Johnson retires they may look at him. Especially with the McCarthy and possibly Lobb trades flying around. However only if SJ retires which I think would be crazy this year

"I'm hearing...." and "People are saying..."

I'm not saying that Hackdorn is Trump, but has anyone seen the two of them in the same room?

Mate "I'm hearing" means shit all and it isn't the truth and what's more I heard that your as deaf as a post.ha ha salim malik

 

[mightydockers]

Hopefully he goes. He's lost his speed and without it he's nothing. Constantly lets you down in the big games too.

How would we feel about a straight swap for McCarthy?

I like it. Deal

 

[Kenny_01]

I'm more convinced he will go to Essendon. They haven't had a crumber in years although Fantasia has sort of played the role this year. I think he will play further up the ground next year, leaving an FP for Ballantyne at Daniher's feet.

I dont think the lost speed is his problem he is still fast. Seems more like doing to many kms, playing to far from goal / cant make the drop off the contests and falling over every time he grabs the ball. Why he slipps so much i dont know

All this 'I'm hearing' and 'unnamed sources say' and 'believed to be' expressions are used by all journalist to avoid being sued for slander.

By using these they are not saying what they are writing is the truth which is what get you in trouble...but rather a repeat of what someone else has said or an opinion which is perfectly legal. Caro is the master of it... and all the journos use it and I suspect they have auto correct turned on in Word to fix anything for them just in case.

It's also a get out card if they end up wrong - Wilson does it all the time - "I didn't say that it would happen it's just what I was hearing at the time. Things obviously changed"

Going to a team we love to hate and Ballas himself loves playing against. If only Stevie J was still playing for them.

Deal. Thanks for putting your body on the line week in and week out Ballas. I hope you have a good few year at the Catery.

Matthew Scarlett (Assistant Coach) says Hi.

He is 100% gone. Not sure where though. He's upset the club. Don't know the specifics, but it involves Fyfe.

You need to put the pieces to the puzzle together yourself. Solve the mystery. Be the hero we need.

No riddles. Just telling you what I know. Proof will be in the pudding. Would you even believe me anyway, regardless?

Well no offence, but unless you're Ross Lyon, you knowing means it's not exactly a secret.

Lol. As if Sumich would know. He didn't even when he was at the club.
