agreed, but it has been a disappointing return from a player who was supposed to be ready made to go at 18.

i would probably go a different way with Gilbert than what everyone is saying if his game continues to improve and grow on what it is at this year, than in a couple of years i could see him dominating in the midfield, with his strength and ability to break tackles, run fast and kick long, why could...

we need to take more risks, do something out of the ordinary. We seemed very content to just chip it round when the game was there to be won.

i had downed close to half a slab by games end but i could still tell that we needed to take risks and adjust our game style when it was there to be won.

BJ is great as a sweeper/quaterback type.

He takes a great overhead mark when playing lose and fitness permitted, would like to see him resume that role.

with a team who continues to play "chipolotto", i would like to see him breaking lines with 60m kicks again.

too early to question armitage, yet 2 games isn't enough so you are correct with that comment. I still think fergy deserves a chance but i may be in the minority. its over for Brooks imo and will leave it at that due to the page long debates over this in the past. I have never warmed to Raph and fra...

i think he is playing team football by showing up every week under some duress with injury. he is having a crack and the bullshyte his team-mates are serving him is the reason he looks disinterested.

our problems run far deeper than the g-train methinks

If they win, shouldn't be thinking about ways to emulate them so that we can win one as quickly as possible?

How has Jimmy Gwilt been going? Is there any chance he could come back into the side as a hff to do what X can't do (finish off chances). Or has he been playing as a FB much like he was in the 1's.
