That's right MM and the selection team at the Lexus Centre.

IT IS TIME.

With the injuries/report to Shaw and Johnson, and with Stanley clearly being the best player in the VFL week in, week out, it is time to bring Stanley in.

IT IS TIME.

Stanley will just add to the midfield, and could even be given BJ's role as our midfield tagger.

IT IS TIME.

As long as he performs to his usual level tomorrow, MM can't keep him out. MM keeps going on about how if you play well consistently at VFL level, you will get your chance. WHEN IS DANNY "FRIGGIN" STANLEY GONNA GET HIS CHANCE.

IT IS TIME.

We have to find out before the end of this year if Danny Stanley will ever be good enough to play AFL football on a regular level, you never know, he could be a late developer like Dane Swan.

IT IS TIME.
 
The DS train should have arrived about two years ago,
It's been delayed...

Let's hope the selectors can get it back on track to Champion Station.

It's now scheduled to arrive at the Gabba 7:40 Apr 17 !

Last Train to StanCentral!

As much as i'd like to see Stanley get a gig, i think Johnson will probably just be replaced by Toovey (can't get rid of him!).
Sidebottom and McCarthy are probably also better chances of being selected in the coming weeks, although i wouldn't complain about those 2.
 
As much as I'd like to see it happen I think given we didn't lose that game in the midfield and our clearance and contested ball figures where good, I can't see it. I think Toovey and Barham are the likely two to be included for Heath and Johnno.
 
Can't see Barham coming in ahead of Stanners. Barham's disposal is woeful. The turn over king. Just get it and kick or handball to anyone.
Yes he is fast zippy gets the ball but his disposal lets him down every time.... As you will see tomorrow in the VFL.
Toovey will probably come in for Shaw.
Knowing MM he could bring anyone in but Stanners for Johnston.

But Stanley has had several chances, hasn't he?
 
Yes, but MM has never played him in the guts. Always off a HFF or HBF.

I don't see the issue, if he is as good as people claim, surely he can play well in any position.
Its like saying Didak is not getting a fair go because he is playing in the middle when everyone knows he is a HFF
 
I was wondering what happened to sharrod wellingham? Did he fall off the radar seemed do all right int 12 games he played last year. Wondering why he hasn't been given a chance.

It can be argued Didak isn't having the same impact on the field, maybe if stanley had 7 years playing in the AFL and was then asked to play as a HFF/HBF he might do better with all the expereince of a 7 year AFL player.

He so far has been asked to play out of position AND make the transition to AFL pace, Didak never had to.

So who decided he was only a midfielder?

Anyone with a half decent footy brain.

Probably the fact it was the reason we drafted him, he as a jnr was a midfielder, his best games have come as a midfielder ie dominated in the VFL as a midfielder winning bogs most weeks and that is what he should be played in. :thumbsu:
Maybe just maybe thats how they came to that conclusion...:rolleyes:
 
Presti was drafted as a CHF
JA as a back

Your argument collapses

No it doesn't lol, they are KPP who generally get played at both ends during jnr years.
JA has played as a FF in u/16 a lot coaches swap there talented KPP at either end depending on what the team needs.


My argument is based around where he has played most of his footy with aplomb eg the center.
So until you can discredit Danny as a poor midfielder, you are the one with a baseless argument other then your obvious love for MM.

Yes, clearly Stanley isn't getting a game because of the fact that I think MM is a good coach

Solid argument :rolleyes:
