Billings has performed well in every game , so his form would be better - the thing is we need him to do it through the whole season.360 tonight Roo said Billings is in the best form out of he, Bont and Kelly :O
But wasn’t that the reason for Billings wanting out and other players leaving with him...? Oh wait....Great decision. I watch him get 55 possessions with at least 3 goal assists and he hasn't looked back.
Inspired decision and showed JB's character to go back, get the pill, and get the message.
Played out the year had a mammoth preseason and killing it this year.
Richo deserves credit.

Battle has been awesome IMO.. strong, committed, great hands and very smart. Love him as a backman, super move putting him there and I think we will see the benifits of that move for many many years.Wow, I have had Battle as a major factor in our ability to look solid down back with out Carlisle. He spoils really well and has great closing speed/ endurance. He's almost so competent that he gets over looked. Looks like he's been there for 10 years, he reminds me of the Wakelins.
Yer this Longer crap is mind boggling... some of the narratives on here really confuse the hell out of me but this one takes the cake.Are people still clinging to the hope of Longercoming good? He is slow, uncoordinated and lazy. Marshall is in great form and has highlighted Longer's deficiencies in a big way.
Have you seen Longer play football?Could we place Longer up forward?
Wait.. what? We talking about the same Acres that is thriving in a midfield/ wing role? Absolute madness.Mihocek reminds me of Acres, maybe we should make him a more targeted forward, his marking has come on this year.
I watched the ANZAC match Collingwood v Essendon. Early in the match, Collingwood were superior and looked as if they were going to run away with the match. Essendon picked up though and were the better team for most of the match after QT. What I did notice is that Collingwood got sloppy. They stopped doing the hard things that they were doing early. Their kicking went downhill too. I don't doubt fatigue had a role in this and Essendon's improved effort also had a role. What did occur to me was that we have been spoiled as football fans this year by our club. Our players are fitter than most of their opponents (this was especially evident against Melbourne), and this has given us the tactical edge. What I witnessed about Collingwood was a team that could no longer do the things I expect our players to do (and our players have so far delivered). Essendon's pressure was immense at times. They forced errors from Collingwood, and shut down their marking game. Essendon have a counterattack style tactic that utilises their speedy players usually through the guts, as directly as possible. The only reason they lost was due to their own poor kicking. Interestingly Shiel was one of the main culprits there. Maybe the loss of Fantasia was the difference in this match as he may have stretched Collingwood's defence just that bit extra. Saad was excellent and almost won them the match. There were seven Bombers who had kicking efficiencies under 60%.I feel like we've got the game plan and tactical nous this year to shut Adelaide down.
I really just hope we don’t mess with the magnets too much.
Agreed. So many bad options if Bruce is out, I can't see any really good ones. This week the coaching staff really earn their money.
All good , no dramas mateSorry, maybe I misunderstood the comment above. Was Saintbloke saying we can't gauge the amount of improvement? I thought it said something along the lines of "we can't know if there has been any improvement". That's what I was responding to. My apologies.

Well when you put it that way there's only one option.Let's be real. If Bruce is out there are two actually viable options. 1) Longer comes in and Marshall goes forward. 2) We play small with Membery as the main marking target and Marshall helping out when he's not needed in the ruck.
If they were planning on Battle playing forward it would of happened when Paddy went down and Marsh has played a grand total of one game up forward for Sandy.

He’s having a great year this year, but I’m not sure dropping him last year has anything to do with it. It’s not like he came back into the seniors and played nearly as well as he is now.
You seem desperate to heap praise, whenever possible, on Richo to rub it in the faces of everyone who wanted him sacked last year.

Concerned Longer is emergency I don't want him anywhere near the team.
Clark and Coffield are worlds apart right now; one is tearing it up in the VFL most games and has had a call up to the seniors while the other is struggling for consistency in the VFL. Can’t really lump them together just because they went in the same draft.
Wait.. what? We talking about the same Acres that is thriving in a midfield/ wing role? Absolute madness.
Yer this Longer crap is mind boggling... some of the narratives on here really confuse the hell out of me but this one takes the cake.
We are 4-1 playing great football, finally have a ruckman who isn't a liability that looks to be a special talent and we want to bring Longer in which would curb his influence and slow his development... is this real life? Roma is thriving on his opportunity why on earth would we jeopodize that? Especially for a VFL quality footballer in Longer!
Cheers for the effort Longer. You tried mate but there's a new kid in town and the jobs his. Enjoy the VFL champ.
