we need fast midfielders and tough enforcer midfielders

whilst a good player I don't think he excells at either categories

it's not always the case but in this instance i would attribute Fiora's improvement to the coach.

he looks to me like he's playing a more specific role and not relying on his postion and his skills to dictate the way he plays

he backs himself a lot more

influeces games when it matters

lol, i read the first 1/2 of that with a look of utter contempt on my face b4 i figured out it was a joke... it's written very journalistically until u quote Anderson

fair enough

any coincidence that his best game of the season comes after he gets some decent match fitness under his belt???

his last stint was a suicide mission and i'll stand by that

does anyone else suspect that teflon and barks are the same person???

Was One on One, with a bloke called Heath Black 4 times today.......won three of the contests.....drew one... Interesting to see the supposed 'hard nosed Black' running around behind the pill getting handball recieves...............whilst 'fiona' was running through the middle, generating play....b...

r u still here barks? thought you quit this forum after someoone hurt ur feelings

i wonder if ferguson may be a late inclusion for Gilbert

i just don't see why we couldn't put games into players that are more talented than Blake and not have it regarded as tanking

nohting worth hearing - disappointed with the loss - liked Telstra Stadium - feels the team could knock over a few teams in Sept - Hopes to play in the midfield once he gets another preseason under his belt - injury free atm - team working on kicking more goals - pay back time for fremantle - spoke ...

Its 10 mins if that from Waverly Park - From memory (now i was young when we played at waverly), but we attracted pretty good crowds down there Doesnt this constitute a supporter base? Fair point. What I meant was, Moorabbin is a St.Kilda area, we have members in Moorabbin because that's where the ...

it's a finacial black hole

need to find a ground to play on

provide all those things that a game requires to play (paying various people, licensing, sponsors, additional equipment, beverages etc)

with our injury list, could you imagine the addition supp players we would have had to pay as well

whatever happened to "The Saint"

I spent $300.00 on my social club membership and due to work have only been able to make it to 1 game this season

would be nice if the package got u something other than match entry for guys who don't get to the games as often as they would like

I suspect he will be the ruck coach next season and I believe this was part of the reason they got him.

The thought of moving states for 1 more footy season IMO isn't all that appealing when you consider that he pbly could have made a fair wage back home in the SANFL or a more local comp...

can't see us establishing much of a supporter base in that area or owning our own bit of property

pass 4 me

Gilbert will play on a HFF

We've been crying out for a tough, meduim sized, hardworking flanker since Hamil went down

RL has REFUSED to give Ferguson ago so IMO Gilbert gets the gig

BTW - I have heard that six players are as good as gone at St.K and are only playing the year out in the magoos

Would have to be

Brooks
Raymond
Thompson
Voss
Ferguson
McQualter

I hear what you're saying.

Could you imagine a little bit of Aaron Hamil in Fraser Gehrig. The opposition would wet themselves every time

I live in hope. It's a shame Teflon because IMO this is the year our 2004 team would have won the flag but we just haven't been able to put it together. IMO we can beat any of Geel, Kang, Haw, Coll on any given day at the MCG... If we were playing well, I'd back us against Sydney and a weakened WCE ...

I've said it all year... from the start of 2006 when we selected Watts, Ackland, Thompson, Powell, Peckett and Blake to go to Perth V the eagles to right now, our team selection has just been bloody awful i don't know what it is, but we just seem to have this love of players who perform poorly or co...

fair point tefs,

all i can respond to that is with you can't put in a second effort when the contest is lost before u even get to it

he's not a contested ball midfielder, he can't bump up his stats with cheap kicks across halfback... he's in the team to kick goals and we're not letting him

he play better against mediocre teams because our midfield gets on top and delivers him decent footy

I genuinely believe Brooks has the ability to make it and I hope they give him an extended go which he never got under Thomas IMO. Back the guy he has the skills........maybe its just the attitude we need to get right... Hasn't gotten it under Lyon either... and his form this season is arguably his...
