Maybe he should work on actually completing a mark

In his attempts to do the spectacular- he has forgotten (or never could?) how to take a mark?!

He dropped about 6 today he got both hands on!

Do our players use the grippo sap for assisting them to mark overhead?

I've seen many other KPF's with the guey stuff on the front of their jumper? Haven't seen our players using it

Yep

They say match balls are slippery as these days. Maybe needs a Jason Heatley glove? Are they illegal nowadays?

Might have had a goal to his name had Gresh handballed instead of taking a shot (didn't make the distance) ..

So grumpy..f.....


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

probably played his last game on Sunday, that attempted tackle which looked like a sexual advance with a little foreplay just to warm things up pretty much would have sealed it for Ross.

:) you are a masochist .. you sprout a PhD on one hand yet sell yourself short with your totally inept grasp of the AFL.

I suggest an Orchid forum.

there's a fine line between salvage and failure, of coarse it's impressive.

Plenty of yo-yo supporters in this forum. So easy to pot a young kid on one down game.

My opinions earlier in the thread haven't changed. Take the opportunity to learn from every contest he attended. The footage will put him in good stead to improve, and if he's any good he will.

You're right. He never knew how to take a mark.

Drops a lot more than he takes

If you fly for a hundred, sure you’ll take 5 or 10

I’d rather 8 simple marks taken than one good one

He dropped 4 sodas last weekend

But it’s not his marking that’s the biggest problem

He CAN take marks

It’s his lack of agility as a medium tall that’s a worry

He is basically a kick-mark player - so if he’s not clunking them - he is useless

I like cooper and has a lot of potential but he needs to know about working hard in AFL He is soft when it comes to tackles we was watching as Caminiti and Poo were all over players and they are kids, Sharman was a spectator he wasn't the only one but talk about bruise free footy.
Well he is still in so maybe ross has got a bit soft and felt sorry for him but why then drop caminiti who is a hard worker and gives everything beats me.

The donut kings were scoreless against Carlscum so RTB decided to ice one of them.

He has picked Membrey instead, who he hopes doesn't like donuts. :lol:


Saints looking like a bottom 4 team in 2024.

Pou and Caminiti's tackling against Carlton was very poor- tackles didn't stick or they didn't tackle when they could have. Two young players learning how to play AFL.
