Now that the real stuff is around the corner, what were the positives, minuses and interesting aspects of the preaseaon? Positives: 1. O'Meara, Mitchell and Roughy all got through and looked very good. 2. Miles and Stewart shower some good signs. 3. Vickery looks like he will be a very solid...

We had many consistent performers over the finals but who do people think was the best? Contenders for me include Hodge, Lewis, Mitchell, Hill, Langford and Big Rough. I was particularly impressed with Lewis, Langers and Roughie but overall I can't go past Hodge. He was massive against...

Following on from the 10 most disliked players thread, I thought it was fitting to do one for the media given their continued negativity against our club. This may be difficult for some people to keep this list to only ten given the high s**t bloke to good bloke ration in the media but try to...

In the spirit of 'Rivalry Round" who are the 10 players from opposition clubs who you dislike the most? It could be because they always tear us apart, because they are a dirty player, a cheat, a sook or just a tosser in general. This is meant to be a bit of banter so keep it football related...

As I see it, if we have all players available for selection, there are 18 automatic selections come September: Gibson Lake Birchall Stratton Hodge Hill Mitchell Smith Bruest Gunston Rioli Poppy Roughead Hale Big Boy Lewis Shiels Int: Burgoyne Some players like Burgoyne and...

Is not doing enough when he gets the ball this year for me. Again tonight he had limited impact on the game. He is fumbling incessantly and his disposals are not hitting the mark and/or putting team mates under pressure. He also is choosing the wrong time to handball quite often. I'm sure he is...

Was simply awesome tonight. He destroyed Jetta and setup so much play from full back. He just does his job week in, week out and rarely plays a bad game. If he played for Collingwood he would've been All-Australian by now. He must be the most underrated player in the AFL.

I saw a segment on AFL Insider a couple of weeks ago where they were talking about each club's Most Important Player. We have one of the most talented, if not the most talented, sides in the comp. We also have arguably the best player in the comp who we have managed to play good footy without...

I cannot believe the number of people on here who are ready to abandon ship. I'm as pissed off as anyone about the game on Sunday (and our crap gameplan) but I don't see the need for people to write us off. Geelong won a premiership from a similar position in 2007 so it is certainly not season...

For me last week was probably the most disappointing performance of the season considering our position on the ladder and the poor performance vs Port. No less than 8 players failed to reach double figure possessions, and several probably had their worst game the year. We undoubtedly need a...

Every side has them. They don't get many kudos in the media, but they do their job every week, and their true value is often only realised when they don't play. In a side laced with stars, I believe we have a few underrated players. But who is the most underrated player at our club? For me...

Article by James Hird in the Herald Sun nominates Hodgey as the Mid-Year Most Valuable Player: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/james-hirds-mmvps/story-e6frf9ox-1225880561463 Good that he is getting the recognition he deserves.

I realise that we have managed to put a few wins on the board, but I thought it might be worth discussing the merits of rotating players. I know Collingwood have done it in the past and it has started to pay dividends with some of their young guys taking the next step this year. It's one...

This article was in the Age. Given the soft suspension Buddy copped I will be mystified if some or all of the players mentioned are not rubbed out for rough conduct: http://www.smh.com.au/afl/afl-news/crackdown-in-spotlight-again-as-big-hits-keep-coming-20100606-xn6k.html Having said that, I...
