I don’t know BFUSA, Kind of feel like what ur saying is kind of a perpetuation of a bizarre way of thinking that has crept into the game over the last decade or so which is to describe intangibles, use stats (speaking more broadly on that point) to justify a view that is just not evident.

Re: Locks and openings round 1

Coffield has to start back for mine. Has talent and before injured started to get some confidence and open the game up with precision attacking kicks rather than the usual crap 20m sideways stuff. Geary shouldn’t be a lock as back pocket anymore. How many AA or premiership backs can’t kick? Geary i...

No other journalists at afl.com.au have played AFL so you just look like a tossbag with that comment. Well done.

I know it is a business but he is also very happy being the highest paid player at the club. Should he not be the highest paid player? Walks in one of our best players, and you need to pay more to persuade a trade especially when you’re not a big club that hasn’t played finals for 8 years. Not sure...

Re: Welcome Ryan Abbott

Where’s the outrage that followed the addition of Ryder? It is chalk and cheese. Ryder has been taken to play first 22 and is older (though better). There is also the argument of whether it is better to play a ruck and true KF or two rucks (who are handy forward). ie Marshal/Bruce or Marshall/Ryder...

Re: Marshall over the moon

Why would Marshall be worried anyways? He has 10 years left at AFL... Ryder has 1-2.

One of the biggest beat ups on this site I can remember.

AA, a magnificent tap ruckman, and some experience in a position we are lacking. Cheap too.

Re: Bennell

I think the club did the right thing by not recruiting Cousins in 2009. He was injury-prone for starters. He would have kept someone out which may have also held back the development of players like Montagna who really came into his own that season. I think I may have read in Dave Mission’s ”The Bu...
