Lonie hasn’t done enough to hold his spot & in my view he needs to be overlooked if we are going to improve enough to be a real contender. But, if the alternative is Kent, I’m happy to be a middle of the range team as long as Kent doesn’t play again. He is a mile off AFL quality as has been show...

Thought it was Hills best game for the club. He’ll only get better.

Would love him in RW&B.

Wasn't it the consensus that the only problem with his forum was P66?
Time for a rethink and a bit of reflection.

Our recruiting is truely pathetic.

A lower level member of the coaching staff referred to him as a myth last year when we were chatting about Mav's rise up the ranks within the team. I couldn't see it then, but this guy didn't believe the hype and didn't rate him at all but saw first hand how much Richo adored the guy. So 'myth' wasn...

Surprised to see this forum still going. If you call what goes on here, 'going'.

Well done on the ban though, keep fighting that good fight.

Lol at Longer. 5 possessions and one mark. Only winning stat was 10 more hit outs. In a game with 60+ ruck contests he 'won' 10 more. Against a direct opponent who kicked two of his teams 8 goals. Not a universal measure but 103 ranking points vs 61. And that's worth a vote. I know it's an opinion g...

I'm a massive Carlisle fan, 24 months ago if I could choose any player to join us he'd have been in the top 3 or 4. But to be totally truthful, I've been a little disappointed in his year so far. Cutting him some slack due to his year off and surgery recovery, but he is better than what he is playin...

No where near a gun. Marginally better than Webster, at best. Langford was a 'gun' for a season. Now a mere water pistol. Let's go for serious A grade talent now, we have enough role players. Zac jones doesn't make Newnes etc a better player. Dustin Martin does. That's the answer. Sent from my iPhon...

His two back to back air-kicks in the middle of the ground were a highlight for me.
I can honestly say I've never seen a player miss the ball with his foot twice in a row. Not even Jayson Daniels went consecutive air swings.
Our Trengove & Grimes moment.

If Longer is selected round 1, put your money on Gawn to get the 3 votes and Melbourne to shorten greatly. Gawn is absolutely pivotal to Melbournes fortunes, and Hickey beat him/broke even twice last year. He is a huge threat this year and borderline best/most influential player in the comp. Longer ...

Our primary school football team was smashed by one Dean Anderson. I then ended up going to secondary school with him. There was also a guy who went on to play for Melbourne - and of course a couple of famous ones followed after I had left - C ....... Judd and B Goddard. Yep, I was lucky enough to ...

Jaxons, you made your reputation here rightly calling the McEvoy trade a long time before it happened. Since then you've been playing your cards close to your chest, rightly so, but this limb you've gone on is a real test. If Leverde does nominate the saints, I can see this forum having to change i...

Good post BM, clearly you guys had your differences, but classy comments from your side nonetheless.
Dare I say it, you haven't taken these forum arguments too seriously, and rightly so, as an old poster around these parts used to suggest.

Any chance on a clarification on when he was banned, as I'm pretty certain the ban was from Feb this year, barely over 6 months ago?

I reckon this thread is a bit premature.

I'm sure Plugs would be chuffed with how he is being remembered though.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well if activity is the main measure, this forum has slumped since his leaving and bigfooty saints is flying. Used to be the exact opposite. Plugger gets his fair share of critics over there too but he is not ganged up on like here and generally accepted for how he is. Which in my mind is a great fo...

Wait??!!!

3:16 reporting an actual fact??

Although the content of this post is measurable, I'm now concerned, as if stonecold reports it, it's certain to be incorrect.

We need an audit on our membership numbers now..

With Judd we win GF 04 and likely 09.
Who knows what else in between, but that's as much as a fact as you can get for a hypothetical.
Bartel for X, we'd certainly be far better off, and as a proven big game player, likely to have at least one more premiership.

So you're suggesting he'll play next year. Earlier this season you announced (not sure you used as many explanation marks!!) Roo wouldn't play 10 more games. Now you're giving him 2017 as well. With that in mind, I'm looking forward to Roo breaking the captains record. Throwing a lot of darts, haven...

Steven, without question. He isn't great with the media, and not a born leader in terms of seriousness, but he plays like a leader. He drags the team along and has never, not once, dropped his head. He plays inspirational football, and is enormously respected. It'd be an appointment much like Walker...

Not a bad idea at all.

Stats tell a story, but often hide the reality. He is not impacting games whatsoever. Has proven talent, yet to see if he has the real determination to become what his talent will allow him to. He'll improve as (if) the team improves, but seems to be idling a bit at the moment. At this stage of his ...
