TRUE BELIEVER APPEAL PROCESS AND POLL

This week True Believer received a permanent ban because he / she had accumulated 3 x 1 week bans. At question here is not whether those bans were deserved as that has already been determined - they were severe breaches of the rules and thus deserving of a weeks ban each time. For clarity the most r...

Re: Is Roma a true ruckman?

Hit out effectiveness is crucial.

Second to that is ensuring you stop the ball going to where the opposition want it.

Taps to advantage numbers is the most important stat - not total tap numbers or tap differential.

Re: Is Roma a true ruckman?

He is the ideal second / support ruckman. His tap work is third class. Constantly puts the ball to where we are not or where we are on the back foot. Great player but first ruck is not his position.

• Arryn Siposs averaged 55.8 gross yards (51.3-yard net average) on his four punts Thursday night, with a 69-yarder that bounced into the end zone. A couple of the punts weren't perfect, but Siposs had some good fortune on bounces. He's got a huge leg and he certainly wants to be more consistent, an...

Re: Daniel Talia - unrestricted free agent

IMHO Lynch and Talia will end up at Collingwood if Don Pyke is coach. Having them will enable Pyke to have on field coaches (saving money on the soft cap) in the backline and forward line to help fast track education of his system. Cheap options for their restricted salary cap too.
