Bullshit! Ive seen him duck his head, shirk at contests Many times.. your opinion of a squib may be different to mine..
... i’d like to note, I dont think he’s been that bad this year.. wont change my opinion on his courage though
This is the guy who once had his face rearranged when ball hunting, yeah?

Jmac? Rearranged? Lol hahaha yeh right
Yep. As butter.



I haven't exactly been leader of the JMac Fan Club over the course, but calling him soft - especially off the back of some hard as nails attacks on the ball all of 24 hours ago - just tends to make people think that you mightn't actually have a clue what you're on about.

Granted, TT probably put it better than me.

And round and round we go.

One act 6 years ago?
Thats why he’s a squib, hurt him so much he pussies out

want me to show the ducking, the bail outs, the fists instead of marking, the broken tackles? Mate, he’s a girls Dick

edit: lol and he’s so soft at the age of what 23? He had no idea how to attack the ball on the ground, leading with your face isnt ideal, thats someone who never won a hard ball head on! look, he was okay, had an okay career, nothing stood out, but a squib is how he’ll be remembered. Squibs get cleaned up occasionally too, you do realise this?

Sure, go ahead.
 
Ask yourselves this question. If player X is moved on from our list will we truly miss him? Is he replaceable with others on the list? Sadly players like JMac, Wood, Turner etc are all replaceable. Shaw and Rawlings are in the process of doing their thing. :stern look

Whooops, wasn’t that a stuff up.
Drop JMac, Pittard turns into captain turnover/fall over... wingard dominates Marley, and Luke although he played well still made some crazy errors, Ats looked lost at best, and no good at worst... and our captain showed he is not up to AFL standard.

yep drop JMac and let’s all have a chuckle.

Ziebell pinged his hamstring in the first quarter and battled through. He is still very much AFL standard, but was clearly hobbled.

Stop acting like a mug, or people will start to believe that you are one.


OMG this thread at the moment is 🤮

Uppercuts need to get thrown.

You want the team to be ruthless Snake and you back Jmac?

No team has 22 x Jed Anderson's and the talk of MacMillan's supposed lack of intestinal fortitude is absurd. It's the barking view of a handful of football illiterates, that has now grown legs amongst lazy thinkers with differing agendas. There are people here that look for any whipping boy to instantly assuage their angst, resulting in them losing complete touch with common sense.

MacMillan missed on Sunday evening.................and we were still rubbish.

that's how I used to feel about Sam Gibson - the best (maybe only) four quarter runner we had, who won us some tight games by providing a transition outlet through sheer hard running, in close games in the dying minutes, and people would bang on about his DE (which was in fact, pretty good)

Gibbo was a champ.

His running was fantastic but his kicking was a liability, due to far too much hang time allowing opposition teams to pick it off time and time again.
He was a very nice kick for goal though.

So back on topic, was he the traveling EMG or did he play the scratch match?

As he wasn't mentioned in the match report.

I watched a quarter live from behind the defenders goals. He led the line.
