VFL 2019 VFL R16 vs Frankston (Sun 21 Jul 2pm @ Skybus Stadium Frankston) - Noble named

[Darkyprotector]

*And a good little bit of made up stuff re: Bont and the dogs

Ever heard of Dennis Galimberti
Heard who he is ex CEO of dogs

Know why we took seir early

Same reason
Accept your apologies

He was ours until 7 weeks
We were the only ones keen at that point
The ex CEO tipped em

 

[Darkyprotector]

Seems like you are assuming he will be a star based on his surname.

Wrong

Seems like you are assuming he will be a star based on his surname.

Watched him play school footy
Go to training
Go to vfl

I'm basing it on what he's shown fearless, his athletic ability

Name doesn't hurt

Not helping josh Daicos is it

 

[Darkyprotector]

Fail to mention no-one can take a mark on him, can cover small or tall and has elite composure under pressure, never picks wrong option.

Have you watched him play?

Never try's to be damaging with his exits
You rekin it's the safe option is the right option
Gets destroyed by the big fellas
Too slow for small forwards
STRong enough for a power forward ?
Time to cash in and fold

You are all very easily seduced by very small body of work

Hope springs eternal
How many games we won in the vfl

Since when did a half back win a game off his own boot?

He has his own position. 3rd tall.

Before Shaz was playing in the VFL we were getting destroyed week in and week out, since his return we have been competitive. Yeah, so I would say he as made a big difference to the VFL side.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

So you are not hot on Shaz and then you mentioned in a previous post that Tyler Brown should come in, yeah, I suppose Brown is that bone crunching, intimidating player you talk about, if Dusty gives Brown a don't argue he will put his hand right through his body

No no no.

Darkyprotector is the Rupert Wills man.

He was going to be our star forward or some such.

I’m trying to work all this out.

You disliked Langdon; you dislike Scharenberg.

You wanted Wills.

I guess with no Langdon we’ve been going so well.

 

[iGNITER]

For those who watched the game how did Goldsack go?

He was okay without Standing Out

 

[iGNITER]

He was okay without Standing Out

Would consider bringing him in this week in place of Appleby.

Not ahead of Scharanberg

 

[iGNITER]

Not ahead of Scharanberg

With the way our defence was on the weekend would consider bringing in both.

Might have no one left

Pretty simple saintly
I'll help explain

At the start of the year I raised a thread for discussion seeing the writing was on the wall

Here's the facts
I wanted to clear / trade Moore and Langdon to Sydney , but guess what Langdon come up short on the fitness test and Moore is at best a teaser and sydney passed
Would have loved melican alir or Lloyd
Could have even bundled Lloyd and Thomas to suns for May

Then shaz could have been shopped for say fogerty or Hugh greenwood

So you end up with

Maynard May Howe
Crisp roughy murphy

Wells pendels. Sidey

Whe cox beams

Stepho checkers de goey
Grundy Adams treleor

Brown aish greenwood Phillips

Much better injury profile
Still too slow

We need two guys extra with wheels
Why haven't we gone after hunt ( melb) mad collingwood tragic growing up

Wills
We tried him at kpf , should have kept him at mid in hindsight
Hasn't had a real crack at it and I feel he has still a lot to offer as a getter and distributor but we're overloaded with those types
My thoughts were at some stage he should have been given a crack to boost what value he had or at least prove he's not up to it

We need
A running half back with speed
We need a tall forward who can demand coverage so mason isn't always 3 on 1
We need a quick winger
We need a quarterback
We need a forward crumber
We need a tough strong man down back

Positives
Keanes the strong one
Atu the crumber
Murphy the q back
Murray the speed
( note 3 are newish to the game)

So if and it's a big one all thrive and we have a change of luck who knows we require a big mobile overhead threat
Oh and 3 of the 5 only genuine quick players get on the park
Moore
Murray
Stepho

We went with continuity , got us wins early but I have to say I think I've been proven right

Should have traded

Wrong he's been zoning off and being a option for switch kicks

Let's hope opposition recruiters like what they see heh

To be correct Since wills has come back we've been getting first use around the stoppages

Also been very wet which hides our super lack of speed

To prove it who's quicker out of
Shaz
Sack
Magden
Keene
( hint it's the old one)

I’m curious if you want to offload players why would other clubs take them for the deals you want?

You have interesting takes on these things, and that’s fair enough too.

Think l prefer breakfast in Richmond, then in Frankston

Seems perfectly reasonable ...

... but wouldn’t the one in Frankston end up being brunch?

Grinds my gears too. Met a girl online who kept on saying 'OK than' in reply. Dropped her.

I think he's saying you can get a better brunch in Frankston, but the coffee is better in Richmond.

 

[Daicos Daze]

I’m backing Wills in the Seniors against Richmond

I don’t get how or why people mix them up?!?

It’s like mixing up fit and fat - two words spelt exactly the same except for a vowel change, and thus giving them a totally different meaning. People generally get that there is a difference between “I wanna get fat” versus “I wanna get fit” and that they would look really stupid if they mixed them up.

So why don’t they get that they look really stupid when they mix up ‘then’ and ‘than’?

It's like there, their and they're. They sound the same so if you didn't concentrate in grade 3 you'll never get it. A lot of people never read proper writing and have no pride in expressing themselves correctly. They should because it's a dead giveaway you don't have a lot bouncing around up there if you don't know how to use common words so that will hold you back in life.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

I hate it when people mix up effect and affect. Ugh.
