The new cap saves Paddy as a footballer.

The old traditional lead up forward was basically dead in the old game - except JJ Kennedy.

It also doesn't help that all our greatest players pop out girls instead of boys

When was our last good father son pick up.
Scratch that. How many father son selections have we had?

Con, for the most part I'm confused with what stance you're taking on Geary. In the Geary thread you've posted these.. Saved us a couple of goals with his courage and timing running backwards. Battled like a true warrior. Probably cost us a couple of goals from poor kicks as well. All up he probabl...

Does Dempster ever get injured? Sometimes I wonder if Tom Lee wouldnt mind putting a banana peel in the shower because Dempster is ensuring that Tom Lee never gets an opportunity to play as a defender in the AFL. Anyway McKenzie has to come in imo. We need dare and dash off half back and Gilbert an...

Darcy is just an example of High End talent, could use Milera or another top 10 as an example No logic to that at all. Milera was not rated as high as Parish. You referred yesterday as pick 5 being Parish and got it wrong. So just admit it rather than post rubbish deflections. Otherwise you just so...

I am calling it - our coach is a half-wit. He comes out and says Geary played well because he was on Dalhaus. Is he stuck in the 1980s? The days that a defender can just play a negating role all day ended about a decade ago. Johannisen - a defender had 27 disposals, Adams - a pure defender 24. Morr...

Bull s*** the club said we will wi a premiership by 2020 ! The club deserves an 'A' for PR, marketing, website and media. But the 'spin' is nothing like the reality. Good one Con! You're an oracle. Glad you decide to wear red black & white occasionally when it suits you. A real honour to have y...

Really disappointed in the majority of the posters on here. How quickly the tide turns on players, coaches and the club as a whole. I was sitting above the benches last night and one this I noticed throughout the night was that our boys came off the group completely spent, every time. The Doggies w...

In: ACRES, MINCHINGTON, Membrey, Lee & Templeton Out: McCartin, Sinclair, Dunstan, Gilbert & Gresham (All dropped) Acres should never have been dropped in the first place! As for Meatball, what does he have to do to get in, 44 touches and 4 goals last week and couldnt get in...stupid. and t...

It is a two way street. The club sell a story to fans that is basically bulls***. Id prefer it if the club was a bit more honest. A little less of PR spin. We pay them for membership - in my case even though I live interstate and am an MCC member in any case. They call us selling raffle tickets etc...

I'll tell you where he is.
SEVEN games into a long career.
SEVEN.

I love you Spaceman

I'm disappointed with both omissions to be honest.Paddy probably needs to come in to give the bigger blokes some assistance. I expect a FAR better game from Roo this week being the occasion and the fact that he's had his one off game for the year. Not sure Paddy is needed as much others think thoug...

Acres is so stiff!!

Hickey, Longer, Holmes. Not sure what order you have them in, not even sure what order the club have them in. But they all offer something very unique. Hickey is the most skillful out of them all with the potential to do the most damage around the ground and become more than just a one dimensional r...

Really rate Dan McKenzie Would love him as an in... Also like the look of Brandon White... Gresham needs to also be a player Brandon White will need time, he's a skinny lad. Recently spoke to someone close to the Saints - he mentioned that both Goddard & Paddy will be fine, we just need to pump...

He came into work the other day as he was doing the media rounds. Seems really relaxed about the whole thing. Gave off a very "at ease" vibe. He's old in footy terms but he said he doesn't feel old yet. Hopefully he can get through the year without any major injury so we can all have the p...

There are those who have some understanding of football on here and the there are others To come on here and bag our (and individual players) performance today is simply stupid We are a clearly under prepared side playing interstate against a potential top 6 side who boast 2 of the top 15 players i...

I think Acres is the type of player than just needs to play a large chuck of footy uninterrupted and he'll blossom. He might throw in the odd stinker.. but in the long run he seems like the extract type of player that we lack

To me a flogging is when you were NEVER in the hunt all day and lost by a heap. If that was the worst flogging we ever had I'd be happy ! Think about round 14 2015, Stkilda v E'dope. 25.12 162 to 8.4 52 That is a flogging I reckon we'll fade out of a few more games this year. Not through lack of ef...
