How many years 'down' for the Roos?

[Richo83]

Raines better than Wells?

You seriously are deluded.

One plays in the BP, gathering cheap possies and kicking long and blind nearly every time.

The other (Before injur), was averaging 21 possies 1.2 goals and leading the comp in inside 50's.

While getting tagged.

I dont care how old you are, Raines could be 10 years younger, he'd still not be in the same class as Wells.

Raines' last year was better than anything Wells has produced. If Wells can't shake a tag, then I guess he's not that good is he? A bit like that "Dudedio".

If you think Deledio doesn't get tagged then you are deluded.

 

[DapperDon]

Wells had already been tagged very hard.
.

yeah, no he wasn't.

 

[Pykie]

yeah, no he wasn't.

ahh yeah, he was

Deledio plays off a HBF.

No need for a tag.

Wellsys best absolutely rips Raines.

I would bet everything I have, all coaches would take Wells first.

No question about it.

I love this thread, 2nd spot to the Kangas a game clear.

They will play finals, and will be top 6 this year.

How many years do you think the Kangaroos will spend in the bottom 4 due to poor trading and a lack of quality young players coming through?

They've only just begun the rebuild, deciding not to 'top up' again in last years superdraft, and will almost certainly lose the experience of Archer, Simpson, Grant, Thompson in the next 3-5 years.

They do have some kids with talent in Wells, Smith and Swallow, while also having two good young ruckmen, Hale and McIntosh, but IMHO they are destined to stay in the bottom 4 for at least another 3 years while there 2006 draft and onwards get some experience.


edit: This is a public poll. Honest assessment is needed.

0 years

No thats something good. Be happy!

 

[The Zebra]

Nah, the Roos are a bit different from most of the other squib clubs in this league. We don't like bottom 4. Haven't for a long time. And we especially don't like bottom 4 in consecutive years.

In fact - over the last 30 years there is only ONE club that hasn't had consecutive bottom 4 finishes.

You know which club that is?

You guessed it- The mighty ********ing Roos.

We tend to fight back.


Expect us to be pushing for finals in 2007.

Still only 1 club who hasn't had consecutive bottom 4 finishes in the past 30+ years.

Yep... we are different.
