Okay every year we hear the same old clichés, whether it be during trade week, on draft day, or over the course of pre-season training.
I’m thinking that we formulate a list of all the terms those at the AFC will likely churn out during the off-season. I say each poster nominates a word or phrase that they believe will be said at one time or another. I’ll kick off proceedings with “biggest pre-season we’ve ever had”. Although perhaps I’m taking a risk because we all know the rigorous pre-seasons we’ve had under Craig so you’d doubt they’d up the anti even more. But I’m confident someone will say it at some stage.
So we’ll make a list, and hopefully by the time footy starts again we would have crossed off all the phrases on the list.
Drummond: “Biggest pre-season we’ve ever had”
Capitalist: "we've (we have) improved our forward movement
Wayne's-World: “We're surprized he was still available…” CHECK
macca23: Referring to the selection taken at pick 76
"We had him in the top 20" CHECK
Mr_Smooth: "were gonna try and win the ansett cup"
"were still a long way from where we need to be as a group and as a footy club"
Stiffy_18: "we will learn from that"
that_dood: "We have learnt a lot over the last 12 months".
jackster83: "Youngsters such as Brent Reilly and Luke Jericho are ready for a breakout season."
Gets!: "This draft will play a large part in where we want to get to, as a club."
Lucid: “We are going to have a fantastic opportunity to play some of our younger guys this season, which is fantastic for them and fantastic for the club"
srv23: "We will endeaver to play fast, attacking risk taking football."
"We hope that this will provide to our supporters a snapshot of the type of football that we want to play at this footy club"
wattsyman: “We need to give our youngsters more responsibility”
"The older guys may need to take on different roles this year"
swanfan: “We will learn from this experience and move forward as a football club.”
Carl Spackler: "We're fitter than we've ever been"
"The playing group has set very high expectations for themselves"
