l find it amazing the amount of peaple that want Guerra to be traded to the Kangas. He is an absolute shocker. l would rather recruit David Calthorp. His achieved nothing in Adelaide. We don't need a reject. He does one or two things a game that stand out. Apart from that he goes missing. Fact.
 
Exactly. I've seen a fair bit of Guerra and while his foot skills are fantastic he is very slow and doesn't win any ball of his own ball. That's OK in the SANFL but in the AFL there is no room for a slow outside player. Guerra will never be an onballer and can't play in defense because he can be exploited overhead and by his lack of leg speed. Don't think there wasn't a reason why he played very little for Port this year. The only reason he is rated is because port have been so dominante over the last 3 seasons. It's a classic case of BUYER BEWARE. Anything above a 3rd round pick just isn't worth it.
 
I really tend to disagree with u fellas. Im a port fan and a lot of supporters of the power really rate Brent. I am one of them. Sure he is not blessed with pace, but he is 21 or 22 i thinkwith the body of a 28 year old. He is a real hard nut, he can kick tha ball 50 + metres , has good hands, and importantly he has immense courage and heart... he is always under the packs. He can kick goals and always provides a contest..

I think you will be luky to get him.. But hey thats my view. I am sad to see him go!!!

Astounding timing for this thread. Only a week or so ago he was the bees knees in here, but now a trade for D. Motlop looks on the cards, Guerra is magically crap? Please.

He's been used as an impact player, is entirely capable of winning his own ball, is an excellent tackler, opportunist forward and in defence takes smart options. He's not fast, but not slow.

...but obviously not the same people. ;)
 
Well damn it, I blame Shinners and Carlos for the complete lack of consistency! :p

I agree

Lets ban anyone who doesn't think the same as Carlos and Shinners

Astounding that you're taking notice of the opinion of one Geelong fan and two other posters who have a grand total of 15 posts between them as evidence of a turnaround in opinion by Roos fans of Guerra's worth.

Just which of the regular Roos posters have changed their mind on Guerra from last week to this week?

Hell, I don't know - all you Roos fans look much the same to me.
 
I still rate and want Guerra. Good solid footballer.


I doubt he is on the minds of anyone at the club ATM though. Wouldn't surprised if Laids joins trade week from the Aflred Hospital next week after last night.

Steady up mate. We don't mind the odd bit of banter on these boards, but this is a very nasty piece of abuse that you're directing at Porthos.

Normally I'd give you a warning, but due to the heinous and obnoxious nature of the insult you directed at Porthos, you get two of them. One more and you're banned.
