Re: Development

Yep. These kids get taken high for a reason. If we didn’t snap them up, someone else would have. It’s too simplistic to lay our current predicament on the shoulders of recruiters. Fact is our young players, the vast majority of them, do not develop at a rate anywhere near that of 17 other clubs. I r...

Re: Ross Lyon

Just saw footage from his presser yesterday. Reinforced my views of him. Very very good coach. Very very average person. Really? Because he had a go at a journalist that questioned his integrity? How does RL treat his wife? What type of father is he? How does he treat his friends? These things desc...

Re: Selling 2x tickets for GWS game @ Manuka

don't you know manuka now has LIGHTS :) ...... point taken mate, not cheap. They are the most premium tix available and there's about three or four tiers of lower-priced tickets. In any event i've managed to move the tickets so very happy for a mod to delete the thread. cheers.

Selling 2x tickets for GWS game @ Manuka

Hi I have 2 platinum tickets (Section: SBAY2U Row: H) for Saturday evening's game. At late notice we now have another couple hoping to join us, so we are looking for 4 seats together but naturally ticketek won't facilitate this once we've already purchased two tickets. If anyone out there is seeking...

Re: Milne according to Richo ( the whiteboard)

thanks mate - i did of course mean 2010. cheers. Just reinforces that it really wasn't that long ago was it? But you're right, his overall record in finals is not at all flattering. There's a pretty long list of small fwds who have gone missing in the pressure cooker of finals. Milney suffers for ha...

Re: Milne according to Richo ( the whiteboard)

Robert Walls wrote a typical piece recently where he slammed Milne and wrote that not once in 16 finals appearances has he figured amongst saints' best. Of course most readers took this as fact and starting adding their views in the comments thread. This is a popular argument for the Milne bashers t...

Rarely bleat about umpiring but they simply lacked courage in the last qtr. Three certain frees to us in the space of 2 mins. None paid. Then the milne decision. Hard to cop.

Re: Jack Newnes

loved what i saw from Newnes last night. Really think he's going to be something. When it's been a bit hotter in the kitchen he's been prone to the odd panicked handpass, but he hasn't tended to go into his shell after a mistake. Last night though I thought he looked really composed and his skills l...

Re: Jason Blake Vs Jarrod Waite

He was terrific. And not just for the job he did on Waite. When Armo scored that goal deep in the third after Lenny magically sold some candy on the sideline, it was Blake's ruthless attack on the footy at ground level that gave us possession. I recall him throwing himself into contests like that a ...

Re: Game Thread vs Carlton.

I know the comms have made this comment already but they are spot on... Roo looks "on" tonight... but that won't sustain if he keeps missing goals he should be converting.
