That's what I mean though. Right now he doesn't have much trade value. No point him coming good at another club! (Like say, Shannon Cochrane at the moment)

That would be the last thing we would need. I'm not even sure that he is tradeable at this stage of his career.

IMO we would get bugger-all for him so we might as well just hang on to him and hope he comes good with us.

We do need to get a young ruckman and a CHF for the future but Gag's won't be the medium that gets us those.

The AFC should lobby the AFL to apply the father/son rule in retrospect and let us pick up Chad Cornes. Port can have our third round draft pick as compensation.

Hell I would give them 1st round pick.

On a serious not I would give them 3rd round pick for Damon White.

Well if he isnt successful at footy from what I seen on Saturday night he is a great dancer and know's how to pick up 'RED HOT' blonde chick's On a serious note he is a great bloke and very down to earth and knows how to relate with the supporter's all important in being a good footy player.He is developing into a very talented footy player now and will be an asset to the AFC in the future!!!!!!

wasn't he so funny on the dance floor??!! and your right Marty, he does mingle with the fans really well. He is certainly worth keeping I would have thought.


Lance Whittnall. no way. nope. not interested in the slightest.

Scott Camporeale. You could convince me, but what we would have to trade in order to get him would be too big.

Scott Lucas. Definately. But Essendon are unlikely to want to trade him.

Chad Cornes. He would need to be "cleansed" so many times to rid him of the Port stench. Port wouldn't trade. end of story.

Ben Holland. You must be joking. After what that little twerp did to us 2 years ago - no way. Plus he has had serious injurys since.

He's fantastic! He could do wonders for the club's PR! He's so natural with people and has a genuine love for being with the Crows!

James GAllagher was our best player in the first half

His disposal in this game was excellent

I have no idea why he was on the bench in the second hafl

Mattner is not good enough at AFL level to me on Crawford.

Once Stenglein was out, why was our back up tagger in Shirley not slected,.

why is Shirley even on the list if he is not going to play instead of Stenglein.

Bemusing.

Have to agree with you on these points Jars, One of the few times this year when i have rated Gallagher's effort highly if only it was in the first half & i could not work out for the life of me why Gallagher spent the second half on the bench, was he injured or did i miss some clanger he made or what ???

Mattner is ok on a half back flank or a back pocket but not to tag someone like Crawford & why the heck did we re-draft Shirley if not as a back up for Stenglein,

some strange decisions are being made with no reasons given as to why.

Excellent post Jars. Not sure if he was our best in the 1st half, but was close to. I was thinking in the 3rd quarter that Ayres must be giving him a break to use his fresh legs in the middle (like the Cats game) in the last quarter with the Goodwin injury ... but he didn't come back on. Mystified me.

Also, agree on Mattner. I can understand giving a youn player a go, but he has had far too long. Has only played a couple of decent games & been absolutely thrashed by his opponent in some games. His confidence & kicking skills are down, so he should return to Sturt. Shirley would have been a better tagging option.

No to Lance Witnall but a 'big' yes to Camporale

There was a rumour a while ago that at his last 2 contract negotiations, Camporeale has burnt the Crows pretty badly by crying homesick but only ever intending to use interest from Adelaide to leverage more $$$ from the Blues. The rumour said that Reid let him know that crying wolf twice was too much, and the Crows would never talk to him again about trades.
