Re: Ross Lyon Looks ahead to Narrm - Pressser

Fell asleep watching. Can't imagine what the post game analysis is like with the team. I think you should just get it off your chest - you don’t like the coach Stop pretending with rubbish “I’m not a hater but…here’s sone vitriol I wanna just put right there…” You strike me as the type that likes t...

Re: AFL General Discussion

Matty Nicholls is a vindictive prick. I think it was late in the 3rd quarter or maybe early in the last, that Steele Sidebottom was at the bottom of a pack and Nicholls was the presiding ump. Umpire blows whistle and as Steele gets up, Nicholls is calling for the footy. He called out Steele’s name t...

Re: Team Saints V Melbourne

The other observation is that Richmond are in the same position we have been at this season and leading into last week - so a very weak VFL side with only a handful of AFL Listed players Performance may have been considered on that basis - so knock the door down by performing consistently Jack Byte...

Re: Jon Ralph is a tool.

I think we were in advanced talks with Tom De Koning weren't we? Easy decision for him in the end. Why would you leave a club on the rise and go to a club in rebuild? It's going to take a lot of convincing...or a truck load of money (Weitering offer) to get a young star to come to us. I'm sure plent...

Re: RoMa in the ruck

Team vs Individual It permeates throughout the team if ALL players are sharing the footy. It’s a mindset. He’s able to pick an opportunity to grab the footy out of the ruck. It’s a really good talent that Roma has. Cotchin and Selwood also mentioned Max Gawn. They said Max could probably do the same...

Selwood was asked a direct question after they showed vision of Marshall’s clearances and he said something lik...

Re: Innovate or perish. Part 2

Owens over the past 3 weeks has attended 8 center bounces for 1 center clearance It sounds like you are arguing the point well that Owens hasn’t succeeded as a mid. The only problem with your stats are that he wasn't actually in the centre as a mid. He was the ruckman Easy to misrepresent isn’t it?
