    Test Frank Worrell Trophy Third Test (D/N) West Indies v Australia July 12-16 0400hrs 13/7 @ Sabina Park, Jamaica

    Happy to agree with you on everything but Holder haha. Even Jason Kreija got 8 in an innings once in India. Holder did alright against some weak opposition during that period. By being not so strong, the Windies were forced to play more Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan etc more often in this...

    Test Frank Worrell Trophy Third Test (D/N) West Indies v Australia July 12-16 0400hrs 13/7 @ Sabina Park, Jamaica

    Have seen Mayers bat too, hit some amazing shots against the Aussies back at the Gabba a few years ago. Mark Waugh was raving about him. Would be another that’s more likely to make runs as well. Has underperformed relative to his talent I think. Agree with pretty much all of this. Except...

    Test Frank Worrell Trophy Third Test (D/N) West Indies v Australia July 12-16 0400hrs 13/7 @ Sabina Park, Jamaica

    This sort of stuff isn’t good for world cricket. I think this could have been an amazing series. As an avid cricket follower, to me Nicholas Pooran is possibly the most gifted batsman in world cricket. And he’s played over 450 t20 matches, no tests and now internationally retired. This is just...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade & List Management discussion

    Not struggling at all. The pies deserved to win, but we did throw away a great chance to win it. I’ve been on about Berry being a weak link for a while and it caught up with us on GF day unfortunately.

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade & List Management discussion

    Robertson wasn’t so good, he was especially lacking in skills, but he could do a defensive role quite well. I remember a day where he got destroyed by Tippa as well (maybe 3-4 goals in a quarter). It’s just a point that a lot of posters point out Berry’s great defensive half on Oliver last...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade & List Management discussion

    Pretty hard when they don’t play. I’d argue Robertson’s final game when he kept Whitfield down to 10 odd disposals when he was averaging over 30 was better than Berry has ever produced as well. Keays has become a great player at the crows once he got the opportunity. If Sharp and Tunstill get...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade & List Management discussion

    At the end of the day the club was ruthless with Witherden (shown since to be the right call), Robertson (who played a blinder on Whitfield in his last game before being delisted) and Rich when he started to struggle. But soft in others like Birchall when he wasn’t performing. For us to take...

    Sure culture is important but Berry is by far our biggest liability in the 22 and it’s a street to second imo. If he’s considered the best winger we have it’s only because he’s the only one that gets full games there. He plays a couple of decent games a season at best, but always gets a free...

    I think Dev would be a huge loss. Doesn’t rate highly in any champion data categories, but much of that is due to his defensive role and lack of TOG. Fages barely got him on in that last quarter in the GF, which was a mistake imo. Runs out games much better than most of our guys. If he goes to...

    Adelaide is no chance to match our offer. They don’t want to offer 5 years to a guy coming off 2 knee recos. As Brizzy says he costs us nothing but salary and a 5 year deal.

    Review Grand Final, 2023 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    My two cents from Saturday: Great effort from our guys to get so close. To be honest in general play they looked better, especially through the midfield. Still I’m devastated in that I feel we let one slip. Outside of manning up Hill, we defended well. Elliot and Mihocek and Ginnivan didn’t...

    Unofficial Preview Prelim discussion v Demons/Blues / Gunston watch.

    Great win last night Rayner and Daniher were unbelievable. But the key was defensive pressure across the ground, especially around stoppage. Would love to see that sort of intensity if we make it to the MCG. I wouldn’t be changing the team apart from the sub. For me Lyons still looks cooked and...

    List Mgmt. 2023 Trade & List Management discussion

    You realise his role at the moment is to be a defensive stopper and not chase the ball. Often he’s leading his man away from it, clearly what the coaches have asked him to do. I’m sure if his role was to hunt the footy he’s be getting mid to high 20s each week as he does in the reserves. I...

    Non-Lions discussion 2023

    No chance the result will be overturned. The difference between that 2004 one of ours is the lack of a review system back then, so that was it. Both horror calls but this goal umpire had the option to check and didn’t.
