2014 Non Eagles Discussions Thread

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Assuming we took a zero tolerence policy to mediocrity tomorrow, would there be anyone left at the club to rebuild around?

Naitanui is a mediocre kick.
Hurn has mediocre endurance.
Gaff has mediocre pace.
MacKenzie is also a mediocre kick.
Kennedy is a mediocre contested mark (much better on the lead).

Not saying we couldn't do with a little less mediocrity, but saying we accept mediocrity is lazy analysis as you're always going to have some around the club until they let us genetically modify our recruits.

You haven't been watching the last two seasons, he is a very good kick these days.
His kicking on his left is very very good, and his kicking on his right is much improved as well.
His long kicks on the right are above average, his short kicks are now carefully measured.
He is one of the better kicks in the team based on this season.

Still a bit shaky kicking across goal.

That nearly went through for a goal. Not a bad effort from that deep in the pocket

 

[Jarlcorbz]

Why? I'd be pissed if we sacked a coach like Sando for an untried coach.

That's clearly what they wanted to happen though. Now who's left to take his place?

 

[Dark Sharks]

I hope that decision bites Adelaide on the ass.

I didn't realize Riccuito owned a hotel with Dangerfield, Sloane and Walker. As a board member, is that a conflict of interest?

Have to admire him calling the games though, it's very unbiased for someone so attached to a club. Compared to Dunstall or Brereton, Roo is very good.

 

[Scotland]

Yeah true, but hopefully it instills a bit of confidence in the playing group that the board are happy with the coach and all systems go, rather than the 2013 circus we had around woosh and whether he would sign or not.

Hopefully.

The last thing the club needs is more complacency that near enough is good enough, though.

It's good insofar as it's not as biased as those others, but his commentating style and delivery is pretty crap.

Essendon verdict due shortly, should be interesting

 

[Jarlcorbz]

I think Essendon will lose.

I base this on absolutely nothing.

What a flog, pissed a good footy career down the toilet, deserves all he gets from here on

[West Coast Weasel]

Damn that morbid curiousity of mine... Eagerly awaiting for the likes of Robbo to try and spin the Essendon verdict into a positive. Should be worth a laugh or two

But jeez they have been brave...

 

[Truckosaurus]

Every time I hear him call a mark a catch I want to punch him so hard his goatee would fall off.

 

[Keys]

Hoping north can cause an upset and beat the COLAs

 

[Truckosaurus]

My god, imagine how massive Scott's tears would be if they lost a grand final...
