Yep, I agree. I really hope he makes it hard for them too drop him with a good performance (or 2 or 3 etc).

That d1ckhead Nathan Carroll's tackle on GTrain mid way through the first changed a game that looked like we were going to dominate. Early on GTrain was looking like he had 15 goals in him. Was just a machine. We were then hit by injuries and Brock McLean played the only good game of his career. Th...

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2015-06-01/rivals-showing-a-lot-of-interest-in-bomber-jake-carlisle Do you reckon we might have a look at Jake Carlisle from the Bombers (lets not get into the whole drug debate) He fits the demographic because he's still only 23. My question is simply, does he prefer to ...

Absolutely. The more time he has to settle in the better.

on both counts.

Bad kicking is bloody frustrating to watch!!

Pretty sure that both Lonie and Sinclair have both had runs in the middle. Both are less one dimensional than Saad.

That first half pressure was ridiculous.

Yet they absorbed it, and went pow.

Led by our younger men.

Woohoo

Very true, dogs were frenetic in the first half, the fact that we were close at quarter time was a good sign. Happy to trade Qs 3&4 for Q2.

They had written him off after 5 games...

Yep. That's true. Some of our supporters aren't that great at supporting!

Wtf was Roo thinking he is embarrassing himself the game has gone so far past him. Slow and poor decisions. Eat your words! 20+ possessions. His Korea is all over! This win had nothing to do with Roo, it was all about the youth. crap & beyond that - gee it's great to have a good win!! Which par...

I heard Nathan Burke on the radio say that last year the crowd of 15000 was financially the equivalent of ( I might get this a little wrong) 3 Home games at the MCG and 6-7 Home games at Etihad. So that alone means Yes it is working......... I think he said it was 1/3 of our attendance revenue for ...

Thanks to all who provided the reports. Really appreciate it.

NO

Crap.

At the risk of being proved wrong, I think that the club should persevere with the NZ venture. True, the results have been underwhelming, however, the revenue and marketing potential is what the whole exercise is about, and to become established we need to hang in and stay the course. I do believe ...

Mick destroyed him today. I can't recall Richo making a positive move. Steven was well beaten and should've been plonked in the forward 50. We needed to try something different in the middle. Why not whack Lonie in for a few centre bounces? He was easily our cleanest player. At the start of the sec...

bergholt, thank you. Both of your last two posts resonate with sound reasoning and good sense.

For anyone who didn't take in what was written I would like to suggest that they go and re-read both of those posts.

Just as an aside, the front six had better change a bit too. From when Paddy got subbed off, every time Longer or Bruce had a rest we were left with no key forwards. Unsurprisingly, Membrey and Shenton aren't quite up to that role.

I'm not sure why people are so surprised and/or despondent about the last couple of losses. We didn't have a list that could legitimately compete at the start of the season and we certainly don't now with our two best players out. <snip> The point being that, on balance, our list is well below thei...

Ignoring that other rubbish; yes I'm going. Had a good week and a half here already and doing a good job of helping the New Zealand economy along. Hanging for a win against carlton.

So you don't reckon that's a major sledge for a young bloke who just walked in the door?

Good luck to the young man!
