    Review Semi final vs Hawthorn - Ugly, Historically Embarrassing and Pathetic

    We are soft and weak-minded. Small town team with small minds that choked on the big stage. Sad. People crying about the crowd booing Quaynor was a perfect example of this mentality. We lost these games because we were afraid, period. The amount of hand-wringing over the Rankine situation...

    Review QF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly vs. Collingwood

    Gee, do you think we might have had a better midfielder in the game tonight had we given Billy Dowling games starting in like round 10 and let him develop? Not saying he would have made it, but I'd like to at least have found out if a guy getting 40 possessions in the SANFL can make it in...

    Review QF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly vs. Collingwood

    It's not about what YOU think is right or wrong. They have the right to boo. Booing is a natural part of professional sports, and your judgement of why they are booing is just that: your opinion. For example, probably a lot of fans were pissed off that Quaynor/Collingwood created a huge...

    Review QF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly vs. Collingwood

    Anyway, to get back on track, I'll just say I REALLY hope we win at least one Final. I never had expectations of us winning the GF even after we ended up top of the table, Brisbane, Geelong, etc are very strong teams and we are still young with a midfield that isn't the finished product...

    Review QF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly vs. Collingwood

    Who cares? The point is that people have a right to boo at a game. If you're so sheltered that you can't handle booing then: a.) Don't go to the games (if you're a fan) b.) Don't be a professional athlete I get that your underlying question is to try to dredge up the argument about what...

    Review QF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly vs. Collingwood

    First off my UGLY (from Los Angeles): game was on at 2:30am so I woke up at 5am to watch, only to see a message from a friend telling me the result. Thoughts: 1. Berry not up to it. Have no idea why people kept laying praise on this guy. He's depth at best. I know I was shilling for Jones...

    Preview R22: Changes vs. West Coast Eagles

    I would use this game to get some playing time for people that might be needed during Finals due to injury and give as many as possible a rest, so maybe something like: Burgess for Tex Dowling for Rankine or someone like Keays/ANB, etc. Nankervis in for Rankine or someone like Keays/ANB, etc...

    Player Watch Wayne Milera

    Thanks for the responses guys. I guess I'll disagree on his "elite" features. Guy is a good player in my eyes and definitely an asset, but I just don't see the elite level. His kicks hit targets, yes, but they are always short, safe kicks - again, which I'm perfectly happy with. His movement...

    Player Watch Wayne Milera

    I gotta admit, I never understood the 1001 chances the club kept giving Milera. Never saw anything elite in him at all. However, I will gladly admit that I was wrong in the sense that - though I still believe he doesn't bring anything elite - he has definitely become rock solid. And tbh...

    Game Day Round 21 MUST-win vs Hawks at AO

    Honestly I know people are trying to keep the lid on, but based upon what I've seen lately I think we are going to completely smash Hawthorn just like we did to GC. Playing at home is a huge advantage to us, not to mention the completely ruthless and physical way we have destroyed our last 2...

    Preview R19: Changes vs. Gold Coast Suns

    This is also a good argument, especially the last paragraph and I see your point and normally would agree, but I still think there might be some upside to giving Jones a real run at his natural position to decide one way or the other. As for comments on the wing position, I guess I disagree...

    Preview R19: Changes vs. Gold Coast Suns

    This. I don't see any glaring advantage that Berry provides in the middle over Jones, but I DO see a mystery that would be interesting to finally answer, which as Mostyn mentioned, would be for Jones to be played in his natural position and givne freedom to let the dogs loose and then let's see...

    Preview R19: Changes vs. Gold Coast Suns

    I could see giving Jones a solid run in the midfield. From reports he is dominating in that position in the SANFL, and mid is the position we drafted him for... so why not give him a decent shot in there? Lotta love for Berry on these boards and while I'm hoping for him to succeed, I don't see...

    Preview R17: Changes vs. Melbourne Demons

    Can someone explain how Jones is not getting a look over Murphy? Serious question. Is he just not getting it done in the SANFL? He has at least ONE TIME torn a game apart, so the hope is there at least. Murphy never has.
