Yeah would be fantastic. Round 1 Franklin fully fit after a full preseason kicking 5 or 6 to start the new season with a win and giving us some confidence to kick off what everybody hopes will be a big improvement on this Year.

At least Roughead wouldn't be there to rub salt in to the wound as he usually does.
Sorry mate but You are flogging a dead horse not that I don't agree he should have been given the opportunity of a consistent string of games this year to prove his case. Can't remember the game this Year at the SCG where he had played a fair game across half forward to be given the last quarter and a bit on ball where he was quite impressive around stoppages and got his hands on the ball first numerous times. The position he has been played in the majority of Senior games is not known as starvation corner for nothing.

Melbourne have been competitive for 20 odd minutes a quarter
They know exactly how to tank
They will not be giving up pick 2 , they drop this a north

We’ve only opened at the SCG 5 times in the last 20 years and prior to 16 and 17 seasons you have to go back to 05. Homebush deal dragged us out there a lot at the beginning of the year for a few seasons. But we must be due a game at the SCG to start the season.

Even if they win this week- North will beat them comfortably, they are a much better side than Melbourne this year

Geezus even James Rose’s NEAFL form is inconsistent! In a year when so many have been out injured you need, at 23yo, to be more than solid.
Robbo and Towers were more solid. Rose won himself an extension on the back of the NEAFL Grand Final. Fair play to him. But he hasn’t taken the next step. In a year where that next step was available to him and vital to the club. Even with an extension he goes back to about 27 or 28 on the list by the start of next season. Then what?

If we are going to have a serious forward line we need to introduce Amarty into the line up. He will give the Melbourne backs all kinds of trouble with his height and athleticism. If we insist on McCartin back then he needs to come in.
I would be a bit in favour of bringing in Cody Hirst too.

Has been our best for three weeks now. He won't be delisted. He has too much up side. Very talented.

Rubbish, been on the rookie list for 2 years...already overtaken by McLean. Will not make it in the AFL and only a big fish in a little pond.

The last three weeks have shown he has talent and aggression. Think he should get an extension. Don't know if he will make it or not, but the Club's investment is starting to pay off with an improved run of form - forward, back and pinch hitting in the ruck.

C’mon, Rose dominates and doesn’t get a gig...a bit of reality please!

Yeah... and KJ doesn't. I think Rose is a different and sadder case.
Amartey is steadily improving and is a KPP development project.
I like Amartey and Hirst and hope they both get another run next year. McLean needs help from either Grassy or Amartey, neither of whom seem ready (maybe next year) Hirst would get smashed in the seniors! His strength is he's quick, but senior footy is much quicker than NEAFL.

Rose doesn't dominate. And he's a medium sized player. They are plentiful. Plus he's 23.
Amartey is a tall. They are rare. If he's showing something, they should retain him. Plus he's only 19 (God help him).

Rose is a spud. He's been lingering around for 5 years and now he starting to smell. He also has lots of those little white root things growing out of him.
Amarty is still raw, like one of those green potatoes. We're just waiting for him to ripen Mick.
It's like saying my potatoe bake has been in the oven for 5 mins and it's not cooked yet. Throw it out and start again.
