CFC looking at Ben McKinley

[Uhumagoo]

oh dear oh dear...

let list the reasons shall we...
1. we had him raw and under sized fresh from the draft where as you are getting a ready made player
2. in his first year he missed the first half including the pre season due to a shoulder reconstruction hence only allowing for one full AFL preseason at the beginning of last year
3. We were too Fev concious last year
4. We lacked the delivery of stevens and judd last year where as this year we have that.
5. The omission of stevens and Judd last year created added burden on players like Murphy and Gibbs who became first tagged mids
6. Collectively WCE has a more experienced midfield than Carlton including 4 premiership players in Fletcher, Stenglien, Embley and Kerr, Carlton had none last year.
7. We needed to give away someone of value, and of WA origin (to make things easier) to get the deal over the line...
etc etc etc

I think i have embarrased you enough...

run along now...

Under Pagan, he was playing forward pocket one week, then ruck the next. He was all over the place. When he played a full game at CHF in the bullants he could dominate, No doubt he was going to get better with the natural development all players go through over time. As he gets stronger, gets used to the speed of the game and settles on a position he was always going to be a gem. Would love to get him back, But I'll guess I can get used to Judd running around for us.

 

[HBF]

Oh yes. Yes we do.

I can't believe you bought that up again Thylacine. I was under the impression that we were never to discuss that day ever again.

 

[Effes]

JK was always going to improve in a proper development program and being given the responsibility of CHF. Not to mention selfish senior players at Carlton who wouldn't kick to to JK when he was on his own, injuries and a coach who didn't have much of a clue. Good luck to JK at WC.

I do however sense a bit of anger from WC fans; who wouldn't be a bit annoyed at their recruiters seeing Armfield and Taylor drafted away from WA. WC had numerous chances to rookie list either player and must be kicking themselves.

Easy now. Everything's going to be alright. It's over. Thank God, it's over.

Come on, let's go home.

Up music, roll credits.

 

[The Coach]

That was some bake off riot!

 

[The Cranium]

i doubt carlton could get him anyway. Won't have anything near the first PSD pick and have nothing we want short of murphy etc, or a first rounder which you would not give up anyway and i doubt we would go near you guys with a ten foot pole after last time. So give us what we want or f*** the hell off. Would rather see him go to bloody melbourne for nothing than you lot for under market value. If we start contract negotiations soon and he 'stalls' or refuses to sign, then f*** him up, screw up his knees or something, such lack of faithfulness, testicular fortitude and comradery should not be tolerated.

You would have to be a dung beatle (beetle)

What's this you speak of?

 

[archiemoses]

Do you expect Kennedy to bag WCE after Carlton traded him?

Kennedy hasn't developed as much as Bower and Jamison.

Your comment about Gibbs says alot when he's a gun and playing good footy.

He finished you off by being in the right spot to receive Judd's handpass.

Thomas didn't kick four on Gibbs.

HAHA, who the hell is Bower and Jamison. Good one!

 

[len_jet]

HAHA, who the hell is Bower and Jamison. Good one!

Dont worry you find out who they are soon enough...

by the way I'll give you the heads up Labour won the election late last year, Geelong won the grand final and the Y2K was just a fictitious load of crap and waste of money...

You'll catch up one day!

 

[mediumsizered]

HAHA, who the hell is Bower and Jamison. Good one!

Jamison was the one who kept McKinley goalless in the Round 7 Carlton/Eagles clash, after McKinley had kicked 14 goals in the 4 games prior to that clash. It is also, coincidentally, the only game in which McKinley has been kept goalless so far this season.

Sorry Gimpman, but you've come in on the tail-end of the unexplainable.
