Cannot disagree.

 

[CatTricks]

Word doing the round is his back is stuffed.
To the point he requires injections before each game.

 

[Whit3y]

his at the twlight

 

[Willo_]

His back looks completely shagged and he can't bend over for the ball, but still has so much ability he can be a good player for us.

He just needs to keep it simple, he is struggling and not able to pull off the flashy magic stuff but if he keeps it simple he showed in a patch last week he can be a good player for us still

 

[Matthew Jelley]

1 year too many perhaps but need experience around while we rebuild. Was looking amazing at times last year, can drop off so quickly

 

[FredLeDeux]

He was good in Rd 1, average in Rd 2, and generally poor in Rd 3 except for his outstanding 3rd quarter.
Just thought I'd throw in a few facts to help people form their opinions before answering the OP's question (HAHAHAHA).

 

[STP18]

I think it was in the third quarter when we were piling on the goals, I remember him just picking up the ball from a stoppage and kicking it long forward straight to Selwood on the 50. He will be remembered for his brilliance but when he just plays the percentages instead of looking to give off a look-away-360-no hands mum handball he is still quite effective. If he's got problems with his body he just needs to keep it as simple as possible I reckon.

 

[dazbroncos]

Can still be a match winner not so much a game changer. By that I mean he has the ability still to do a freakish thing at given times and make the highlight reel but the game long influence is probably over.

And to make the highlight reel he has 10 attempts to get 3 right.
If he would simplify things a bit IMO his effectiveness would increase and this his influence over longer periods. Still has the ability the body just can't do it all the time anymore.

Go Catters

You don't trade a triple premiership player, Norm Smith Medalist, and a player who has been an integral part of our success, against his wishes.

He should be based predominantly in the forward half at the feet of both Clark and Hawkins, but our midfield problems are preventing this from happening.

 

[Whit3y]

perhaps we should have given him a 10 game contract aye?

He doesn't think he is done, I will wait and give him time before pronouncing its over.

 

[Turbocat]

kicksome , lets not pollute another thread with the same old debates.

i wonder if dasher and moons thought they were not done?

i guess with them we had afl ready replacements

this smooth transition has been completely bungled
no wonder balme jumped ship

I just asked another poster not pollute the thread..you bring up Mooney , Milburn and Blame and transition. Its a thread about SJ and where is he at

the call was made on these two, whether they think they were cooked or not
perhaps the call needs to be made on sj, whether he thinks he is cooked or not

an entirely appropriate comparision. entirely relevant on the discussion about sj

Agree with the trading part 2 gun mids would have been great

Its reads like yet another way to comment on your themes of strong belief. You don't need to comment on anything other than is he done or is he not to answer the OP

Oh FFS

Go follow the Windy Hill drug den if you're that obsessed with him

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

I'll grant you that and it makes me a touch hypocritical but Chapman was offered a contract and didn't wish to accept it. For a trade to be completed, both parties need to agree... Chapman did.

You need to say it slowly for some...

and use small short words. Throw in some appalling English too... then they'll get it.

GO Catters

Fair enough,thems the rules.
Look forward to you applying them to all posters and all threads then...

Many here think they already do that fairly and appropriately
