No Oppo Supporters The Melt Thread

I recommend knitting, JMT. It is very calming. I'll teach you.

Perhaps sharing a pattern for a nice scarf with a purple and white chevron pattern?

Melt, why deboer name as emergency so many time and yet not playing, surely playing for peel will benefit him more than watching Clarke play.

Not if De Boer's career is already over and he's just killing time. There's about 3 or so others in a similar position. It doesn't matter if they play or not this year.

Might as well ask him to go now like Sylvia if that the case. Why do this small little action , it going to cause more bad blood if Clarke going to get selected and get injured time and time again.
If you got one player not playing well or non existent in the field the chances of ball coming to your defensive 50 will be more , look at a.pearce ,Hughes and Dawson sooner or later they also will breakdown.

my favourite post of the year. can't like enough

That would be a good argument if Clarke, Sherro, Clance, Ibbo, Mayne, Croz etc were showing some development or form. I'd rather we pick some heart and good decision makers and have a chance of winning for the young fellas out there than those who have shown nothing for weeks.

Agreed. Sheridan and Crozier in particular have disappointed this year. There's nothing to suggest either of them are good long term prospects for us.

Gees. No pleasing some of you. Now we want the usual suspects back so we can win a game or two.

Youre reaching putting Clancee in that list. Clancee is in the list I was talking about. Guys like De Boer, Clancee and Mzungu will cycle through the team this year but are pretty much done.

We are clearly playing Clarke to try pump whatever trade/fa value he has.

Are you suggesting we drop Croz and Sheridan? We need to know if these guys can play. Sheridan will end up being a solid player. No star but solid.

For the rest of this year we will be focusing on next year. Full stop.

It will not be pretty.

So does Clarke value pump?

 

[MadDocker]

Clarke should go busking in the cappuccino strip and never touch another footy in his life.

For him to turn this around and become anything like he was when Sandi went down and he took over the #1 ruck stock would be the biggest miracle since Jesus lived.

Would rather play DeBoer in the ruck. 100% dead serious.

Yeah, I want to win a game or two. This season is a flipping embarrassment and so is the effort of some players. A win or two would do wonders for the young guys... confidence is a remarkable thing. We're not going to fool anyone about Clarke. He's got dicky knees and appears to coast at times. Sherro and Croz have been in the system for a good 5 years now ... very limited progress. I'd rather Barlow play the next two seasons than Clarke or someone who is yet to show very little. It's clear there is a lack of leadership out there and some experience to guide the youth. Ross said last night we were killed in the clearances and the game is won and lost in the midfield. De Boer or Barlow would have offered more than Clarke, especially in those conditions.

 

[Carl Hooper]

Tabs is an absolute no hoper... 30 odd games for 20 something goals is pathetic.. yeah yeah hes a more lead up the ground kindve player but hes not even good at that. Gets beaten way too often and has a brain the size of a peanut. Doesnt even get the best defender every week and still gets ****in towelled.

 

[MadDocker]

Do not agree. Won't rant as this is the melt thread, but, I don't agree with that call at all.

Mayne want more money, not you

 

[Carl Hooper]

At least quote me...

My friend and I made a list of players that need tk be traded or delisted:

TABS - nothing to be said
Both Pearces - the only pearce we acknowledge is alex (for now)
Mayne - finished for 2 years now
Ballaz - Fell off so hard, needa trade him if we can
Spurr - guarenteed bag kicked on him every week, catchya
Barlow - still in our best 22 but still putrid
Zac clarke - been washed for ages


More to come

 

[MadDocker]

At least quote me...

TABS - nothing to be said - Lol
Both Pearces - the only pearce we acknowledge is alex (for now)
Mayne - finished for 2 years now - Just Lol
Ballaz - Fell off so hard, needa trade him if we can
Spurr - guarenteed bag kicked on him every week, catchya - Lolacopter
Barlow - still in our best 22 but still putrid
Zac clarke - been washed for ages

As you wish.

 

[MadDocker]

I would not pass up a better paying contract just quietly...

Lol. Hasn't even played 40 games yet. Anyone with half a brain knows talls take time. Would you have delisted Kennedy 40 games in too? Check his early season stats.

And this season Tabs has actually started showing improvement.

Averaging the most marks of all our forwards and also averaging the most contested marks of all our forwards.

out of a small bunch of tall no hoper's, hes the best no hoper we have!

Clarke is deadset average but next year only one of those players will be on an AFL list next year.

Yeah, I want to win a game or two. This season is a ruddy embarrassment and so is the effort of some players. A win or two would do wonders for the young guys... confidence is a remarkable thing. We're not going to fool anyone about Clarke. He's got dicky knees and appears to coast at times. Sherro and Croz have been in the system for a good 5 years now ... very limited progress. I'd rather Barlow play the next two seasons than Clarke or someone who is yet to show very little. It's clear there is a lack of leadership out there and some experience to guide the youth. Ross said last night we were killed in the clearances and the game is won and lost in the midfield. De Boer or Barlow would have offered more than Clarke, especially in those conditions.

So Barlow and De Boer should be played before Croz and Sheridan. Madness. Complete madness. Both Barlow and De Boer won't be at Freo next year. Nor should they be.

Zac's saving grace is that he's a tall and we have none. None at all. I don't rate him or care for him though.

Way to completely misread what I actually posted. I said Croz and Sherro have shown little progress shown in 5 years. I said a win or two would be good for the team and especially the younger guys. I said I'd rather have Barlow on our list 2016/2017 than a pea heart like Clarke or someone not giving enough effort (RTB alluded to this) and I said Barlow and de Boer would have offered more in the conditions last night than Clarke when we were always going to be destroyed in the clearances. If I play your game, are you saying you'd rather develop a losing culture among our young players than win a game. Madness. (see what I did there?)

You have no idea do you? Genuinely clueless. Though obviously your level of comprehension is on a par with the mod that closed the thread, so you're not alone

Glad it was closed. Poorly timed and badly worded. Insensitive and silly.

Ok, my argument wasnt solely based on stats. Hes showed no sign of significant improvent over 3 years. With Kennedy, Darling etc they had average numbers but you could tell they were going to be great. Can you honestly say you see Tabs developing into a Kennedy or Darling, and if so, when?

Dafuq? Taberner has actually played reasonable footy the last few weeks.

Darling is having a very average season,far from being great. Kennedy is nearing thirty and took years to get past being just promising. Any judgement re Tabs is way to premature.
