[NickFlips]

McIntee is just Port Adelaide’s Rowe.

Will clog up the list until someone better comes along.

I still remember as a kid dad driving past the airport on Tapleys Hill Rd and my brother and I looking across to the car next to us and realising Kane Mitchell was driving it. Kane spotted us and started waving like a maniac hahaha

Sam Gray, Sam Skinner, Brett Eddy, Lindsey Thomas, Cam Sutcliffe, Jimmy Tompas… the “Hinkley’s Spud” team is a fair list.

Kane Mitchell giving s**t to Norwood troglodytes is a classic ports moment

-----------

but then again in Melbourne they get 2 games on the same channel at the same time LOL.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I actually kind of wish DFW wasnt playing then I could ignore this game completely instead of wasting two hours of my life.

 

[charcolechaddy]

With respect, that is complete garbage

Enlightened me, where do we play him?

His disishion making is poor and Charlie is a better option as second ruck.

 

[charcolechaddy]

Great outs except they missed lycett. Finally DBJ flicked, 18 months too late but good to see.

our ins (except McKenzie) are putrid..should absolutely guarantee a 60 point loss.

Totally agree, why not play Evens as a genuine small forward instead of Mcentee I don't see what he offers offensively.

Where are we playing Williams? Half back next to Farrell? Wow.

I hope Laucky Jones get to play on a HBF where he should be in the twos.

Very good WAFL player, decent, but not great in the AFL, but you would never question his effort, and, dare I say it 'a really good bloke'

 

[RossFC]

Lord playing SANFL. Jones, Byrne-Jones and Clurey held back.

 

[Chewy316]

I'll be pissed if Darcy is the sub. Sends the wrong message.

Then again, it would be classic Ken to drop Darcy this week, not play him in the SANFL, and then bring him back for Gather Round. Ken will say "he's been training the house down."

will send a clear message to the rest of the playing group. Right Ken, would that be anything like the message sent by not dropping Tom Jonas? Does that mean if the Captain does not produce this week he will be dropped next week?

 

[Powerage]

Have they?

Rozee is a hit, but even any armchair Bigfooty recruiter knew you were picking between Rozee, Ben King and Bailey Smith at that pick so it would have been impossible to screw up. Butters, Duursma and Georgiades started off strongly but have stagnated. Bergman is going okay but I wouldn't say he's exceeding expectations. Dylan Williams looks a bust. Sinn is a mulligan at this stage. Lachie Jones should be playing country footy.

Richard Tambling, Toumpas, Kozinske, Jack Watts, etc etc etc etc all say hi regarding screwing up with an early pick. Butters stagnated after an injury that left him virtually unable to feel one of his legs below the knee and if Georgiades could kick straight for goal we would be more than happy with his development as a 21 yo medium/tall forward. Lachie Jones has had an injury plagued start to his career and is still 20 yo.

You seem to enjoy picking on players under 21 particularly those who have had injury issues.Most of the players you have mentioned cannot really be judged for another year or two given an injury free run.

 

[longdonkey]

Personally I think DBJ has been better this year than last year. Some of the decisions are impossible to understand.

Sometimes you wonder whether a guy gets dropped because his dog took a piss on the tyre of Hinkley's car.

 

[PJ Power]

Bonner - AFL player - gets beaten in contested situation, misses tackle, falls to ground and stays down while opposition runs away.

not exactly the strength of his game

Yeah that was weak

 

[NoddyHolder]

I don't think so. In that scenario it would be more on brand for Hinkley to arrange to have the dog shot

More likely that it was Darcy's turn to pick up the dog food this week for the greyhound and he forgot.

 

[Mutha F]

Hinkley still won't bite the bullet and drop Tom Jonas who is close to the most under performing player in the side.

Jed McEntee is described as a 'pressure forward' in the preview on the Club website. So there you go, that is why he is in the side.

Meanwhile Orazio is out with a quad injury- another year and nothing changes.

What even is a *in pressure forward. How bout a forward that wins the ball and then kicks a goal. I know it's a crazy idea, but it might just work.

 

[Schulzenfest]

You could almost accept the 'pressure forward' argument for Jed McEntee if he was actually above average at applying pressure. He's not though.

Hinkley and Darcy own the same dog.
