Ever wonder why so many forwards with high numbers in pressure acts aren't getting played?
Coz they don't fill the first basic priority of a forward - to kick bloody goals!

Smith is the genuine forward pocket player we have been screaming out for.
Goals win games.

Throw the cheque book at him Ameet!

Agree. Lets get. We need arrogant selfish campaigners.

So sick of our goody two shoes running into an open goal and instead of kicking it, does the unselfish thing and tries to hand it off.

Cost us multiple goals this year. More Greene like campaigner less, hand it off for a point.
Well said Joffaboy! Agree totally

I would trade both Dunstan and Armo both are extremely slow and average kicks at best. I'm different to everyone I actually think the top 20 in this years draft is reasonably strong, if we where to get some late teen picks somehow I'm very confident we would pick up some real talent that would fill our needs
So get rid of one of our only experienced players and the player that showed the most improvement in the back end of the season? Yep

My apologies mate. Funny how some supporters take any sort of criticism towards the club so personally.
Funny that the club itself identified areas of improvement needed from coaching panel after this season and are going towards rectifying it.
I'll make sure I only mention positives from now on.
Ghost........please just keep calling it as you see it.

I for one value yr thoughts/comments.

FMD people wanting to pass on required players because of potential cost, less than perfect personality, a random tweet... or whatever.

Here's an idea...

Let's do nothing. Go to the draft. Draft a bust. Stay mid table.

Then we can spend the next two years on here melting, bagging the club and calling for Richo to be sacked.

Because that seems what most people on here prefer to do by the looks of it.

Don't like my observation?

Care factor = 0
I dont like your observation and I reserve the right to oppose every potential trade then complain I am disappointed we didnt trade for anyone.

You fickle mush heads were ready to delist Dunstan a few months ago...

I do love the unique chaos of this place.
I’ve always liked Dunstan, I copped a fair bit earlier in the season when most people were saying he only was getting a game because he had photos of Richo , joke of course. There weren’t too many sticking up for him then back then . But I have also said bad things about Longer so you don’t always get things right .

giving up dunstan would be madness ..
Completely agree st_trav..............as I mentioned the other day....he's my smokie as a future captain.

I thought that after his first season and still stand by my thoughts.

Sure....he had stagnated after that first year but gave us glimpses in the last 6 games of the season.

2 shoulder reco's certainly hasn't helped IMO.
