Roast Was the Positive only Thread but now it’s We Suck Thread

[rocket18]

I think we have players in:

• Berry
• Hately
• Hamill
• Cook
• Soliglio
• And obviously RT & Rochelle.

How good can this lot become?

All have improvement to come whilst I feel Rowe, Ned, Murph don't have the tools/skills to get much better than their current output.

I love the spirit that Keays plays with. Its what makes him special to our team.

Just think of the positives, this one already has more replies

Oh for sure, I love Keays but I was keeping my list to the younger lads that we haven't seen much of/most excited about as they wont be flops.

Keays, Doodee, Butts, Dawson etc are bloody good but are a "known" commodity- we know what they will/can give us.

) and some picks in the 60s for Melbourne's future 1st which looks like pick 18 (Dawson) and pick 33 (Soligo). Arguably one of the best trades the club has ever done, because Dawson was a steal for pick 18.

Berry and Hately look like different players now that we're playing them in their preferred position in the middle.

Add Butts.

A very good FB. Could be elite after 100 games

Berry - balanced offensive/defensive game , really happy with him despite some shortcomings with his kicking . A proper 2 way mid of the future which we need to build some class around

Soligo - smart , tough , some class . Great pick Hamish (and I did doubt it at the time )

Gollant - I really like him for the long term

Hately - can play AFL

Hamill - is playing well and no concussions

Rachele - looking forward to seeing him after a rest but even more in year 3 of his career

I’ve been harsh on Fogarty but at least he’s not being beaten in the air as much and neutralising some contests ( it’s the positive thread so I’m being positive )

 

[beartoo]

Could have beaten Freo and the Bombers with a bit of luck. We were the better side for much of the game against the Saints and but for pisspoor shooting for goal could've won that too.
The storm that is the last few years will pass and we will emerge into the sunlight. We will win more games this year and do okay next.
* high draft picks, they are a lottery. Wins build confidence and culture.

Could have just as easily lost to the Bulldogs and the Power. It goes both ways.

 

[WetCrow1991]

I'm positive that people don't know much about footy when they constantly go on about our bad goal kicking being the reason for losing in review threads.

attempt to dispose of the football each week is a positive.

 

[ams4crows]

The injury list, barely any soft tissue injuries. Only had contact injuries and an unfortunate ACL and concussion issue.

SANFL team is finally performing at the level we expected. That's due to having so many AFL listed players available for selection.

Rachele and Soligo look like really solid picks and I'm pretty sure Taylor will be too.

Berry and Hately finally getting midfield time to show what they are capable of.

 

[BRL121]

Not having to watch Jake Kelly attempt to dispose of the football each week is a positive.

Hmmm, you're pushing the boundaries. I think we need a ruling from Elite on whether this belongs in the positive thread.

….. easily our best current indigenous player and still playing below his ceiling.

Arguably equal 5th in all time list with Troy Bond, trailing only McLeod, Betts, Johncock and Cameron.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Hately is starting to show why he was a first round pick.

I think we pretty much have our midfield mix spot on at the moment, given who we have on our list. Just need to work Schoenberg back in.

& positively have more players rotating through.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

I think Cook brings a lot of class to our team.
He just has that poise and time that the good players have.

We positively need to get him back in the side soon.
