On the negative aspect, do agree with the comment that he didn't handle Davis and probably Hall very well.
But, on the positive side, I can't recall who said it, but somebody recently (Matthew Lloyd??) said that he was the best kick in the comp for efficiency because he knew his limitations...
So is the deal(s) done? Or what? Get yer freakin' acts together gentlemen and ladies.
NOTE: it's of little consequence rating seaby vs mummy (oh how i love a bloke with a nickname 'mummy') vs jolly. This is all relative only to their value on the trade table, the strength of each club's...
Re: Fev for Bradshaw and Rischitelli?
Hmmmm. You'd think that any "off field infringements" by Fev'd be met with five hours in the bar with JB followed by five rounds in the ring - bare knuckled. No helmet.
Collingwood over-rate their list. Every year, they nearly get to the top (GF's in 2002, 03; prelims in 07, 09; finals 04, 06) & and every year it's said that Malthouse "does a great job with what he has" and "gets the absolute utmost from his list". Same comments. I agree with that, btw. BUT...
It's not that. 1:1 I'd say that a 80 or so per season goal kicker is a far more valuable get than a very good ruckman (not great, but certainly very good) who can go forward and also kick a few majors.
However, in this trade period, the goal kicker has baggage, is very expensive, and is...
absolutely. We picked up Jolly at 2004 draft for pick 15. Now he's a ruckman in the prime of his career hence the hold-out. Don't blame Roos who's said all along that he's now a better player than then (certainly true) so rates a better deal than then. Arguable whether he was worth 15 at the...
Re: Swans offer Fev four years
hey mate.
i'm absolutely factual however in my comment: so far it IS just one source, and SEN have been the least reliable. but yes, i'm hoping like mad we don't get him. mainly due to some outrageous promises i've made to my mates!
and i'm thinking that...
don't want him, or we shouldn't be paying too much. I seriously don't get it. this year, we lost hall, magic, barry, jolly and crouch (and to a lesser extent fosdike and kennelly). in the next two years i suspect we'll lose kirk, goodes and either or both boltons - maybe o'keefe too.
So...
I've got an income earner for the Tiges: how bout Richmond setting up a special "Richo Membership" pack next year? The target market would be for non-Richmond members (as well as Richmond supporters: members and non-members) who appreciate his on-field ...(er)... eccentricities.
For a...
Harsh. Following Warne and the GWH Cam White as a leggie means you don't get a lot of ops. Has been around a long time, captains his club, has improved his batting and has a few raps from Jenner et al.
Hmmm. Tomorrow's October 12. Bad time to be in Bali!
Wonder if it's an omen?
would be sad to lose those two blokes for another Dempster. Would prefer to lose Bolton, then Monty, then Schneids, in that order.
I agree with everything you say, except that it's commisSion, not commision. (Sorry. It's what I do.)
Plus I agree with Kingpin bollocking Jet. They're terrible.
Agree with all the punters here, and consider that the pre-game entertainment should ALWAYS be:
1. TAC Cup GF
2. VFL GF
3. Wheel out Mike Brady with the guitar: Up There Cazaly, followed by One Day In September
4. Sing national anthem
5. Crowd goes nuts at the last note - shiver up spine...
Onya Richo. Fave ever non-Swan player. Seems a genuine, interesting and humble bloke, plus adds spark and colour to each game he plays. Always scared me when we play the Tiggers - occasionally we'd have his measure, the next time he'd carve us up.
Whatever your opinion of him as a player (I...
Quiet night at Blood Stadium.
Training was light - skills only, with the boat race 1's v 2's the highlight of the night: each player has a keg. (Pots are for homos.)
Then we have our own special 'Face/Off' game: the captains headbutt the windows of the social club - loser is the first to...
He's a human being. He ****ed up. He got his comeuppance. He took his lumps and came back and played a very good GF. Most other clubs would've either delisted him as too hard or let him have his way.
You're carrying on like an absolute tosser and like you've won a flag already, when all...
Oh, I agree, he is a tool. I just hope he can give his all for two years and help get us back on the dais. I didn't want him initially, but we paid a fair price and we'll see how the deal works out.
