    Just drop him all together? He’s been atrocious in the easiest role in football.

    They need to find a replacement for Sellars and I don't think it should be either of Chom or Maley. Can we just whip some clown forward for a bit? Kallan Dawson or someone??

    If they gave us 4 premiership points per quarter won we'd be out the 8 on percentage.

    Player Watch #9: Luke Davies-Uniacke [Part II] - [Herald Sun] LDU has parked contract talks with the club & is expected to command offers of more than $1m a season

    100%!!!! The sky didn’t fall down when Judd left the eagles, they arguably nailed a trade that set up a premiership. Maybe we take Cadman instead of Sheezel if JHFF leaves the season after, thinking our midfield is complete? Players who don’t want to be here are sapping the energy of those who...

    I don’t want picks at all, I’d rather bring in a group of proper senior players. I’m not hoisting the flag at half mast for a player who has led our midfield to no success whatsoever.

    Player Watch #9: Luke Davies-Uniacke [Part II] - [Herald Sun] LDU has parked contract talks with the club & is expected to command offers of more than $1m a season

    I disagree. I think we have a stack of talent, especially around the ball, but no application, leadership and drive. Sadly this is LDU to a tee for mine. I think he’d be an unreal asset to a team who has all of these traits but maybe lack that edge. If he was at the cats they’d be unbeatable.

    Player Watch #9: Luke Davies-Uniacke [Part II] - [Herald Sun] LDU has parked contract talks with the club & is expected to command offers of more than $1m a season

    Perhaps it’s best for both parties to part ways. I just don’t see how LDU can turn on the attitude we need for the ship to turn around. The poor guy must think to himself that each game is just another loss, and his chance of success is slipping. By the same token, he has become a key issue to...

    Opinion Is this rock bottom?

    North Media would have to be up there with the worlds hardest job. They seem a positive bunch but there is literally nothing they can do to patch this up. I'd love a few vids of some internal leading teams, 360 degree feedback style. Perhaps with physical altercations as players come to blows...

    Opinion Commentary & Media VII

    The hardest thing to accept is that we all know it is a pure effort problem. When this senior group has collectively put in, post coach sacking/takeover/new coach bounce, they've either looked dangerous or won games. How can we support a group not trying? It sticks it out clearly who is and...

    I cant imagine any other club will be thrilled to hear his "be good and I'll put in" stance. Clearly dumb as he plays costing himself money.

    The axis of ordinary - Atley, Macmillan, McKenzie

    I miss blokes like Fishy Mullet and Pittard/Williams who despite not having a shred of skill had a heap of physicality and drive. At least we resembled an AFL mens football team and not a bunch of soft cats.

    It is unbelievably difficult to support someone who is holding the club to ransom over an improvement clause whilst doing absolutely minimal to turn the tide himself. Cancerous attitude.

    I think he’s an offensive weapon that in the right set up could be used to break games open. In our system, our distributors can’t set him into space where he does his best work. Clubs will know if they can put the right type of player around him he will elevate their side. There would be a fair...

    Strategy The actual positive thread

    Paul Curtis is a star, he’s a brilliant small forward who has great hands, strength and he stays involved in games in one of the hardest positions on the ground. He’s been a winner on the ground all season.

    He does tend to allow his opponent to mark it unchallenged which is usually a No-No for a back man.

    Our only chance is deep in the year against a banged up side who have checked out circa the Suns last year.

    Sadly, wherever we put him leaves gaping holes from whence he came. He’s an amazing player, a leader, and our true captain.

    In modern footy, to have 100 points scored against every single game thus far is biblical. Can we focus on a bit of defence for a bit??

    I just don’t see this ever working out for LDU here. We’ve built a midfield that love handball receives and open, low pressure play. The kind that doesn’t exist at this level. One or two is perfect in a midfield but basically we’ve got the full Monty. He has one more year after this and just...

    There will be players out there with internal motivation to go beyond. But the type of character is almost more important than their ability. The money would have to be ridiculous levels to bring them across. LDU is the perfect example of elite elite talent, but the want and desire isn’t there...

    With a player like LDU you’d think we’d get something better yeah? All of the dross we’ve picked up over the years has been with assy picks and discards. Drop some real currency on the table and then see what happens. tack on a wedge.
