Interesting how high the cost of living is in sydney

Teams there should have an allowance for cost of living maybe

Sounds like a good equalisation measure.

 

[Tedeski]

Its harder from interstate is ours and the other interstate sides issues

But look at 2005 and 2012 such stable sides, minimal changes and injuries

Yeah that's the biggest key. A stable back 6 firstly but pressure for spots creates hunger.

 

[Punts]

Higgins has a team humming around him. When/if the fit hits the shan, we'll see how he defends up the ground. Thus far his team has been able to keep the ball in their forward half more than the opposition so he's been able to predominantly be more attacking but I trust he is built for this game & is in the right team & at the right time for this point of his career.

Thought is was the point of the ball being in the forward half

Rather that than the back

 

[Punts]

Injuries will determine the premiers

Hey?

 

[The King!]

Hey?

Richmond are a good side but have f all injuries



If dusty did a knee next week or rance they wont win the flag imo

Agree as i said very good side, but so are teams like geelong, hawks, gws, us, crows etc but have more injuries than richmond makes it harder right now

Agree

Imo I can’t see any of those going close to them at the G in the finals , maybe the Hawks but the rest are very average at the G in finals

They have towelled all the top sides of late ( at the G )

 

[Punts]

Can we trade Murray back in the mid season trade

 

[Punts]

How did King pick the Dons to win the Flag

 

[SilentHunter_]

How did King pick the Dons to win the Flag

Kiss of death

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

How did King pick the Dons to win the Flag

I think anyone picking a flag Favourite in round 5 is just not thinking properly you start to get a idea around round 15-16 as contenders start to hit their straps.

[swansfan51]

Why would we be interested? He takes the game on

 

[Punts]

Well done Murray

Very impressive player

 

[kickthething]

Well done Murray

Very impressive player

its what can happen when you take a risk on youth... there is an upside but we seem to quick to look at the reaons not to rather than the reasons to...

 

[swansfan51]

norf 4th, Collingwood 5th, Sydney 10th. Yuck

 

[The King!]

norf 4th, Collingwood 5th, Sydney 10th. Yuck

Should we get buckley as coach

 

[Punts]

They should retire Goddard

 

[caesar88]

In other words another asterix flag coming up for the Tigers?

 

[The King!]

They should retire Goddard

He is a flog

 

[caesar88]

Goddard always seems angry over his own mediocrity

 

[Number37]

Should we let Jake Lloyd go if we can get a De Goey type in return?

 

[SilentHunter_]

Should we let Jake Lloyd go if we can get a De Goey type in return?

If we miss finals I'd say a lot of players are on the table. We need to be ruthless if we want to get back to the top again.

 

[caesar88]

Should we let Jake Lloyd go if we can get a De Goey type in return?

Lloyd is a top fifty player in the comp. I've seen nothing more than glimpses to suggest De Goey will be so.

We're already stagnant, with average skills, and lacking rebounding defenders. So you want to get rid of one of our quickest players, best ball users, and most attacking back-half player?
