    RD 9:- Crows v Blues matchday thread.

    I said before today that if we have improved as a team we would beat adelaide. Reality is 8 goals down at half time. Same theory about sydney (lost) freo (lost) bombers(lost) saints (lose) port (lose) We beat a seconds pies side and everyone gets excited by judd. whilst noone continues to...

    My Heart of Darkness

    we need to go back to round 3 to work out where it has all gone horribly wrong. The joke of a club we lost too exposed many deficiencies and they are no good. The one thing the bombers do is play through the corridor. It is high risk on the turnover but they have now beaten hawks, pies and...

    Carlton vs Fremantle Matchday Thread

    Reality is we have a fairly long way to go. People come on and speak with a great deal of frustration and i am no different. We have many players who still can't kick, mark, handball and just don't have the footy smarts. I am not going to single blokes out. The whole playing group needs to...

    Dickers smashing us

    our skill level below our knees in ordinary at best. We are being found out by a bigger side. Their better players are their tall players. Reality is our tall player aren't ready yet or put simply aren't good enough. For me bombers and hawks loss is going to hurt us big time after tonights...

    News Latest update on Andrew Walker

    That is really good news regarding walker. Hope he gets back soon. I did hear some bad news on another of our players though. Not sure if it has been mentioned but Andrew Carrazzo had surgery today on a Broken finger/thumb and will likely miss a month. It had nothing to do with his hamstring.

    Swans v Blues game day thread.

    O.k. - we have just to the nrl swannies and YES I am P ISSed off with how insipid we were today. To sum up our efforts, you need not look any further then the last 2 minutes of the game when we lifted our intensity. But the only problem there was we had already lost the game. Positives -...

    2006 Bret Thornton non-trade to Hawthorn... revisited

    The reality is we should of got rid of Thornton when we had the chance. People say he does a job, but my lasting memory of him will always be hands on his head and head flung back after giving away another free kick. Regardless of what went out pick 24 and 33, that is all hindsight ( if, but...

    Welcome to Collingwood - Steele Sidebottom (PICK 11)

    this guy will be an outstanding player for collingwood. I am from the area and am good mates with one of his brothers. Cut the BS. He has got what is required to play at this level - smart, great kick, good overhead and is a pure footballer. So you have done beautifully with this kid. Don't...

    Ziebell: Forget him

    I teach one of the bushranger boys (Sam Wright) and I spoke to him today about yesterday's game, which was obviously a great effort to come from 6 goals down. He said to me the only reason they won yesterday was due to two players. Number 1 = Steele 'rusty Sidebottom. Sam said that this guy...

    Pick 6, 24

    Put simply we need Hurley or a Vickery. One of these two could potentially fix up one end of the ground (the defence) because it will allow Waite to play forward (as evidenced by his performance in defence on Brown=terrible and then moved Forward=matchwinner), the irish experiment will end at...

    The Official "Rub it in to Carlton" thread!!!

    aah the circus that is adelaide supporters. Keep finishing sixth and get knocked out in week one. I suppose you expect stars like moron and massie to step up and mcleod to play until he is 100. Lick the bags going nowhere. Enjoy your win. Was the umpire ryan singing the song in the rooms...

    Our Shit Players... Played really shit...

    please don't use the word great about players who have only played for 5 minutes. Quotes like: ' he could be a good player' are much better at this early stage of careers. e.g - army, brown and austin. Put simple we can't keep giving sides a head start otherwise we will continually struggle...

    We must get Warnock!!!

    Pretty Simple - Best available at the draft (likely to be pick 5-7) e.g. Hurley, Ziebell, Johnston,Vickery - one of those types Don't give up first pick for Warnock. Chase one of White, Brogan or dare i say it Peter Street. We need a bulldozer ruckman with our quality mids. This will allow...

    Jake Edwards?

    have to agree with blue_chick on some fronts. We all get our hopes after a couple of good performances from wiggins, fisher and russell. The jury is well and truly out on Fisher. He along with carrots, t-bird have been there through the dark period but that certainly doesn't mean the club...

    I Feel It's Time...

    Probably needs a new thread this but it is quite obvious that we still have a few deficiencies before we can honestly challenge for a top four so here goes: Defence - Needs significant body strength - Jamison very good full back, Build around him. We need to get a Michael Hurley ( Vic Metro)...
