Ran through a pack collecting Bartram's head in the process. Free was paid for high. No eyes for the ball. Similar to the one against WCE but contact wasn't as forceful. IMO should be worth another reprimand which will be 1 week when his points from the last reprimand are added.
He obviously...
19,423 was the attendance for Melbourne v Freo today. I think a few people were waiting to stick the boot into us today and weren't able to on more than one count. Although the crowd was not up there, it was acceptable, especially coming off 6 weeks of totally uncompetitive football...
The kicking of teams when they are down on here is just incredible.
Before you make your next thread/post dissing Melbourne supporters consider what we have suffered through this year:
Injuries
Our injury list peaked at about 11/12 (I think) of our best 22.
And they weren't just any...
I'm not sure if this has been done yet so delete if it has.
Ricky Petterd was fantastic for us last night. Close to our best player - definately top 4.
20 possessions and a goal. Fantastic disposal, awareness and footy smarts. Put most of his teammates to shame.
But it was his first...
I know that the Sydney crowd are terrible at the best of times but tonight they took it to a new level. I was sitting behind the goals at the randwick end and they started a mexican wave! They are seriously idiots.
Meanwhile I'm trying to watch the game (that sydney ruined by clogging up the...
David Neitz is a champion! Single handedly turned the game around today after our pathetic first half. Absolutely dominated! That is his 2nd 8 goal haul this year. Fantastic CAPTAINS game!
Whoever says he is a crap captain and player to be our leading games player, is kidding themselves. This...
With 2 games still to come, which youngsters are in with a chance of getting a nomination this week?
From Melbourne, Dunn would be our best chance. Played well without being outstanding. 14 possessions 7 marks 2 goals and directly set up another to Robbo. Has kicked at least one goal in every...
Just wondering what those in the know think of the prospects of Lochie Henderson and Michael Rockefella.
Both have been named in the falcons' bests a few times.
Henderson in particular as he is still very young and very tall.
Thoughts?
Since you are losing Carr, Thompson would be a great ready-made replacement. So would you do...
Thompson for Thurstans and pick 18
????
We could possibly add pick 29 as a sweetner, although that might be too much.
Thoughts?
Jarad Rivers has signed on for 3 years! Fellow South Australians Bell, Broadbridge and Nick Smith have also re-signed. Bad luck Crows.
Hopefully there is more to come.
Our season is over so I'm already looking forward to trade time. Here's a list of players that are almost certain to be put on the trade table.
Anyone interested in:
Williams (extremely cheap - ie 4th/5th round pick - he would be delisted but I think he is contracted for next year)
Ward...
Typical Sheedy and essendon. Won't give credit to the clearly better team.
Sheedy (effectively) says they lost because no Wellman, Fletcher (horribly out of form) and Rioli. He conveniently overlooks the fact that Melbourne, too, are missing a few (three like bombers) players from their best...
It has been reported in the paper that Melbourne are interested in Holland and Richmond are almost certain to trade him somewhere. I'm not all that keen on him but if cheap I wouldn't mind having him...so how much for the man???? (be reasonable)
