Re: Long, Byrnes, Coops and Lienert

Long - hard at it , tackles and pressure, but foot skills and decision making let him down often. Much preferred forward of centre then back Brynes - still developing. runs hard and link player. Ideally i could see him becoming a wing with occasional centre bounce Lienert - Depth player . can fill ...

Re: NWM and Windhager

The great thing is that they're only about a quarter way to reaching their full potential and output, yet they are playing senior football and contributing. Owens will be as good as those two, as well. In a few years we will look back very fondly at the 2021 draft I like this thread. And to me, it ...

Re: The running men.

When I think of Tony Brown, memories of youngsters such as Skinny Lappin, Joel Smith & Aussie Jones also come flooding back. The mid to late 1990's were often special days at the club. (Eg Pre season premiers 1996, top of the ladder 1997). It would have been great if Skinny and Joel had remaine...

Re: The running men.

I live in a shoebox next to a drain. It's a bit squeezy but there is water nearby.

I have a pet ant and a horse. The ant is more suited to this life. It works for me.

Re: Our draft hand

Looks like a healthy in take for next season. Got a top 10 pick plus the 2 NGA kids rated in the top 25. Throw in Heath as one of the best Under age rucks and the wildcard Sharman who looks promising. Genuinely think we have a bit of tradable currency as well. Looking really good and even more so w...

Re: McKenzie reward for persistence

I bagged DMac relentlessly. I eat my words.

His disposal used to be cringeworthy. He has improved a lot. He is one of those warrior types who are the heart and soul of the team. Amazing how some can be coached and improved.

I wasn’t around these parts when Ricoh’s contract was extended. What was the general mood of the forum about his re-signing then? Most people were not happy with Ricoh. A lot of jams in the flow and often a poor quality finish. People were especially annoyed at a lack of accuracy. It never improved...
