    Toast A remarkable 20 years. - a Positive thread

    What a amazing job Eddie and co have done for this great club. In a competition designed to ensure that every club has a chance to win the flag once every 18 years, our period of sustained success the last 20 years should be rejoiced. Delivering a Flag, 6 Grand final appearances, and 13 finals...

    Opinion At their best

    so just listening to SEN and in their " professional opinion " dismissed the notion of and sms suggesting that at their best/ peak career form. Whitfield / Congolio / greene are far better then Wells / Beams / Dagoey. EDIT: It's become apparent that my question has perhaps been...

    Opinion Who presently unfit would you want in our side

    So just though whilst we wait a week until we smash GWS. as a Hypercritical if assumed 100% fit and at their best form that has been exposed who and ONLY one would you think most impacts the side during the reminder of the finals. my initial thinking was the obvious Reid at Full back his best...

    Delibarate out of bounds

    With all these potential new** rule changes has me wondering that perhaps it's a rule change that we made 15-20years go that has caused the style of football to change. I for one remember when we used to applaud defenders perfectly landing a kick 30-50 metres down the line and dribble out of...

    Opinion high profile traded / recruited players with no impact

    was randomly thinking of high profile recruits ( of course this is subjective ) that have come to the club and for one reason or another ended up having minimal impact. two that spring to mind to me are D-Wells - hopefully i'm proven wrong however injury has stuck him down B-Caracella - that...

    Opinion Moore or Elliott

    heading towards the back half of the year i was thinking if we could only get 1 of these 2 fit who would be the better option for us out of Moore and Elliott. obviously this is based on IF* and on the assumption fully fit Elliott for mine gets the nod, his proven that his consistently able to...

    Opinion Next Captain

    Opinion DeGoey or Lynch

    With Dagoey going out of conract and no doubt another 17 clubs targeting him I'm wondering peoples thoughts. IF*** it came down to only having the cap space for one of either Tom Lynch or Retaining Dagoey what do we do. In my view I say retain Dagoey, reason being. the form of Cox thus far is...

    Opinion weakest area on the field ?

    It's interesting peoples thoughts that our backline and midfield are leaking too many goals. personally I'm of the opinion that it's our forward line letting us down. now perhaps it's that our forward structure is poorly coached however I'm looking at it from the fact the we are missing our best...

    Elite players not rated amongst their peers.

    So I’ve had a bit of time on my hands and was thinking why there are some players that although they are recognised they aren’t quite given the same respect as other elite players around their time. And by Elite I mean consistently AA quality over a number of years. Wondering peoples thoughts...

    Opinion players that retired too early

    just a random thread to pass the time. just thinking of players that could have and Should have gone on for another year. two that spring to mind are Jimmy Clement & Leon Davis. Davis finished up as an AA and I can't quite recall but did clement finish up as an AA also ?

    Opinion Can Swan kick 50 goals

    It was spoken about in the media a few years ago that Swan was of a similar build to the great Leigh Matthews. and that he could very easily finish his career in the goal square. with our new recruites. Treloar and Aish. and more midfield time for Dagoey, is it now time to sit Swan in the goal...

    Opinion Fyfe or Clarkson

    so the Age old question, " is it the players that make the coach, or the coach that makes the players " ? so I'm putting the question to my fellow Big footy followers. Fyfe and Clarkson for most are regarded as the best player / coach in our game right at this moment. So picking only one of...

    Award winners to leave the club

    Medal winners. So it has occurred to me that if I was Paul Seedsman that I would be concerned having won the Anzac day medal. As he has almost a 60% of being traded. Removing the out and out Stars in Swan / Pendles and Hird winning it multiple times " * apologies Rocca". Of the remaining 13...

    Strategy Pendles down back.

    Ok so just a random thought, I know that a lot of people will disagree. Bucks recently mentioned the need to find quality ball users from HB “ which most of us already know “ . Purely based on the assumption that we get one of Treloar / Aish or perhaps both our midfield for all intents and...

    Opinion Decision making Vs Disposal efficiency

    We all know that efficiency can be blurry. eg) those who handball more " should have " better disposal compared those we have kick kicks out of congestion. my simple example below which begs the question what is more important ? 1) player looks up and there is a 2 vs 1 contest, kicks low and...

    Opinion Fasolo experiment

    so many would say that the Fasolo down back experiment has failed. With that said I wonder if perhaps it hasn't failed. as the Biggest gripe with Fasolo is that he was a down hill skier, no defensive side to his game. Yes only an Intraclub game but I noticed that he was the leading tackler. so...

    Opinion Rodney Eade (please post all Eade-related comments in the other Eade thread)

    Normally Collingwood ( Gary Pert ) takes the front foot with any rumours that circulate and I know that we did comment last week about Rocket Eade however these rumours keeping circulating which concerns me. I think that he may be on the way out, if that was to happen who do we bring in to...

    Dayne Beams (merged - latest "He could not stand the pressure)

    although like most I'm shattered the Beams has left, I personally believe that a big reason for him leaving was to be closer to family and that although he may have had issues at the club these would have been fixed if not for the pull home. Congrats beams on a great 6 years at the club. and...

    Opinion Players Out injured Vs Players in Fit

    I have done a starting 18 with the team below as the current injured players and players who didn’t play against GWS. The one below that is the team that we fielded against GWS with bench players placed on the field from that game " given that 3 were injured ". I’d like to see peoples thoughts...

    Opinion Alex Fasolo Forward or Back? (Congrats Fas on 50 games)

    I can understand the need at the start of the year to play Fasolo down back as we needed quality ball users down there and Fasolo needed to learn to tackle and defend. After seeing the Westcoast game he looks lost down back and his natural flair is not being used to our advantage to see two...
