he makes up for it with terrible decision making 😎 -
Preview R18: Changes vs. Western Bulldogs
Yep and you know what’s interesting about rnd 4 - and the other time Murphy was selected - it wasn’t to fill Rachele’s position. You can tell because the guy he was brought in for, Crouch, replaced him the following week. He then was selected for Peatling during his suspension in round 14. He... -

Yeah your mistaken -
Preview R18: Changes vs. Western Bulldogs
how about rounds 11-13 where Pedlar was picked and Murphy was not? Because next week they will swap places, and what then? You know as well as I do this week murphy wasn’t playing until Milera pulled out, and he was only retained in rnd 16 when Pedlar was out injured, and Pedlar wasn’t in the... -

If Max can do as well against the Tigers as he did playing the sane role as Murphy then I don’t see “position” as the be all and end all. Nankervis has kicked 10 goals in the SANFL to Murphy’s 5, so he could play fwd. Theres actually nothing positional stopping the Crows from rotating Curtin... -

Timing? clubs seem reluctant to go outside their emergencies, don’t know - doesn’t matter - both have been selected 4 times this year but only one has been dropped. Murphy was only selected after Pedlar got injured, and Nicks talked about taking a low risk approach to Pedlar coming back - who... -

Your premise is wrong anyhow - Pedlar has been picked over Murphy this season, the only reason Murphy got a look in was the Pedlar injury and his last game by default of Milera. -

Murphy is getting a game ahead of quite a few players that appear to be more talented, not sure that’s the best measure to use. -

Bigman’s Training Reports (Update: 11th March)
100% correct apart from the crucial bit about JUH attending every training, which was erroneous. So maybe not 100%? Yeah more like 50% -

100% Imagine losing your prospective full back and full forward inside 2 years -
Bigman’s Training Reports (Update: 11th March)
I accept your rationale - However, the longer term discussion was related to how Crows supporters would have been freaking out way back in Feb had JUH been on the list (in light of McAsey) along with all the rumours. (Which would be true) It was also suggested I wrote JUH off too early, and we... -
Bigman’s Training Reports (Update: 11th March)
Seems like those close to the JUH were either delusional, highly optimistic or were lying to you. Two games in, no closer to playing for dogs. Latest is that JUH gets anxiety from being near teammates & big AFL crowds so won’t go to games. However, going to NBL, NRL, the pub, displayed on...
