Re: Jaxons come on down (2017/18 thread)

I've been coming on here since the early days around 2002 but enough is enough. Time's up for me. But when the likes of valuable contributors sych as Tony74 and Jaxons have been driven away, you have to ask yourself what's the point? I've enjoyed many insightful and witty posts over the years but th...

I'm struggling to see how we can win the flag unless we also play at least 3 games a year in NZ.

Re: Nathan Brown- opinions please

I'm certainly hoping he'll allow our side greater flexibility so some of the other guys can get off the chain a bit more.

Seems a decent honest player and a good bloke to me. Should fit in well if he can play that role.

Re: Koby Stevens

The guy is a well handy pick up IMO.

Not a world beater, but will go a long way to bolstering our team balance and giving us a more solid core to build on.
He was well liked by the younger players at the Doggies, according to a mate of mine who's a mad keen Doggies supporter.

Joffa Cunningham was highly underrated for his toughness externally but certainly not within the club!!!!!

Last 7 games - my take: Possible wins in final 7 games. V Melbourne at Etihad - Yes - the hoodoo continues. V Bulldogs at Etihad - No. V North at Etihad - no, we haven't beaten them since 2011 - they're losing to good sides but they'll get over us. V Carlton at MCG - Yep. Probably. Not by as much a...

Is he injured, out of form, ahead of himself, down on form/confidence, does he want to be there? Been down for a while now. Anyone on the inside know if there's anything going on?
