Could we seriously have the worst collection of backs in the competition? There is absolutely no drive or attacking mindset from any of them and when they are actually called on to defend, we concede some of the easiet goals youre ever likely to see.
We had a backline today of Sinclair, Toovey...
For people not at the game, Mitch Browns injury was shown on the big screen during the 2nd quarter. It was closely followed by vision of Nath looking at the scoreboard.
Im sure Nathan is very close to his brother and the Brisbane ground crew using that as gameday mind games is utterly...
Plenty of proposed personnel changes and prediction threads on the board at the moment, but maybe it's time we focus on the current crop we have at our disposal. There are a few positional changes I think could work next year, based on glimpses in 2014 or otherwise.
Marley Williams (forward) -...
It's obvious one is going to miss out when Reid comes in and White plays the third tall/second ruck roll. Who do we take in preparation for September?
I might be in the minority but I'm going Witts. The soft hands with his taps can be damaging and he crunches contests at ground level. Think he...
Down two key position backmen and I thought he was superb on Kennedy for the majority of the second half. Kennedy was probably the one who could have cracked the game wide open but Goldy proved he is one of our best swingman on our list. Top stuff!
Couldnt get to the game but for those who saw it, good leadership or too far?
A swinging arm into the chest was poor form IMO and if a player from my local club did that, id be inclined to give him a spray.
Now Fas may have been unaccountable from Maxy's eyes at times (didnt catch the 1st...
Has it happened before? Is it a viable option with the ever increasing frustration from players/commentators/supporters with the MRP, rules of the game and other certain issues?
Mark Ricciuto seems to think the players should go the drastic route of a strike this weekend in light of Jack...
I like Bucks and am definitely looking at the brighter side of tonight. We lost to a top 4 contender by a couple of goals and couldve pinched the four points.
But geez, the face palms seem to be occuring before the ball is even being bounced.
I casually took my seat in P21 and was shocked to...
Thought it was coming. Some just cant seem to handle a loss.
And David, I know you're in a rare good patch (and you probably shouldn't be if we could catch), but please, on behalf of the neutral fraternity, just shut up. I know you all have this 'aggressive' crap sprouting from the mouths of...
Is due back in the VFL this weekend. Where do people see his position in the next couple of weeks?
I think he is still imperative to our chances this year, as his drive, run and carry can be a lethal weapon in September. Was starting to hit some form in the Adelaide game until he cruelly...
A 6 goal loss. Looks bad, could've been worse, could've been better.
But we aren't that far away from the best. And the best is Hawthorn. Not sure if there is a stat, solely based on efficiency but the Hawks are just that. Efficient in movement, skills and hardness but always beatable. They are...
Going somewhat early. This kid is a jet.
Quick, hard and such delightful skills. Dunno if he signed a deal recently but give him a long term contract now!
Will be a Collingwood midfielder for a long time! :thumbsu:
Week, after week, after week.
Lose man floats around, we bomb long, they rebound too easily.
When is it going to change? On the contrary, we see Maxwell have absolutely no effect as the 3rd man up and we find no avenues to goal from defence. Why was the Carlton game this year our best...
Tips? Most wickets? Most runs?
Im going England 3-1 but I honestly wouldnt be surprised if our boys really gave it a shake this series. The Poms have done their homework and are preparing some dry, slow wickets. They know their only threat is our bowling attack, which can destroy any XI on its...
Why on earth did we allow Sydney to play a loose man in defence? Why would we let our loose man go to the stoppage which leaves us one on one forward of the stoppage, defeating the whole purpose of the tactic?
A: We were getting beaten EASILY at the clearances, and weren't given an ounce of...
Week, after week, after week, mountains and mountains of pressure is on our backline.
Why on earth the ball is coming in so clean is beyond me. Watching the game with no audio last night was awful but it looked like we had 12 players on the field at times and our backline kept us in it during...
News is a script has been written and all four of the lads have been signed on.

Loved the TV series, and Jay, Simon, Neil and Will, travelling around Australia should be awesome cinema.
Our best defender to date this season. Criminally underrated because he doesnt get the ball, but another fine game from the big man!
Really hoping his groin is OK, but I'll put my hands up to give it a rub. :p
Yes, I know how the prequel to this thread with Clangenmakers went (he is s**t though) but it's about time someone gave some attention to this brick wall.
Go ahead and kick a bag on him in 2013. I dare ya'.
Bitch #1 - Jack Darling (for the 5th time running)
Is it now up there with the great attacks? You have Steyn, Philander (the perfect foil) and Morkel (the change up). They are only really lacking a spinner but why the need for a spinner when your frontliners are skittling sides regularly for minimal scores?
For now, probably not but in 5 years...
I kid you not, word for word, he stated to the press "full credit to myself" in regards to his win over Novak. I dont care how old the guy is, he is the biggest flog in Australia.
In my mind, he will always be Croatian, just like how Dokic was always the Yugoslovian whore everytime she bombed...
If you had to take one right now, who would it be? So many arguments can be made for each batsman. Cook opens the batting, Amla perhaps batting at hardest number and Clarke's sheer weight of runs now has him in the elite category. Who, right now in world cricket, is #1?
I'd go Cook, simply...
Alright dudes, time to hear people opinions on what they're match of the year is. I'll have a few TNA matches from this year in the poll but I dont expect them to poll well, as noone actually watches it :D But I have done some research in regards to WWE PPV's and think it should make for some...
Just wrapped up the VFL game and Majak really impressed me. His ruck work around the ground still needs a bit of work against the bigger bodies but in the centre, he is great. His work around the ground impressed me the most. Clean at ground level, awesome in the air and seems like he can run...
Anyone? I finally have the funds for an interstate trip, but have new job training til 3pm on the Friday. Can I make it? :p Well I'm taking the risk and booking a flight that departs at 5pm with Tiger (risky I know), which should see me make it to Sydney at around 6.30. What's the deal with the...
Date: September 9th 2012
Attendance: 1000
Location: Impact Zone
Finals of the BFG series will conclude at this PPV and we should then have a one month build to the main event at BFG. Austin Aries will contend against one of the four finalists and I'm sure there will be plenty of twists and...
