Even a drunk cat can see this but the club can't.I would be happy for no Rohan and no Murdoch
I understand your point but I disagree. Caddy’s role might not be specifically to apply pressure but he still does - he averaged three tackles a game in 2018. Menzel is a liability once the ball hits the deck.
Goals are important, of course, but anyone that has played at any decent level knows that it’s the responsibility of all 22 players to apply pressure. If you have the ball 30 times in a game then the ball is in your hands for maybe 1min in total for the whole game - what you do when you don’t have the ball is extremely important.
Well they need to pick better 'specialists' it seems. Again IF what he is saying is true.
Stats don't always show everything, Rohan is far more likely to provide 2 or 3 moments of brilliance and win you a game.I am staggered we would get rid of Jordan Murdoch and bring in Gary Rohan. For mine Murdoch is actually better. Given they both do have their flaws.
Over the last 2 seasons for starters Rohan has played 27 games Murdoch 38 games.
Statistslly Murdoch is far superior.
Disposals Ave
Rohan
2017 - 9 Disp efficiency 73%
2018 - 10 Disp efficiency 62%
Murdoch
2017 - 15 Disp efficiency 71%
2018 - 17 Disp efficiency 76%
Murdoch averaged 1 more tackle in each of the last 2 seasons than Rohan..
If you look at the stats overall there isn't a lot separating the 2.
But clearly Murdoch gets more of the ball and uses it better.
Why we are looking at Rohan is beyond me.
An old post of mine (from last time we were linked to Rohan)...Can't have too many Garys at the club.
Although we brought back Gary Ablett this year you can never have too many!Isn't it about time we filled the "Gary" (or "Garry") void on the list? It is just not right.
Garry Hamer - 1961-1965
Garry Davidson - 1972-1974
Gary Malarkey - 1977-1986
Garry Sidebottom - 1981
Gary Ablett - 1984-1996
Garry Hocking - 1987-2001
Garry Phillips - 1990
Gary Ablett - 2002-2010
Only 8 Gary/Garry-less years since 1961!
And Rohan is a red-headed Gary! Double points!!
Not in the finals he doesn't. I think, like Menzel, he cannot last out a season.Stats don't always show everything, Rohan is far more likely to provide 2 or 3 moments of brilliance and win you a game.
Menz to the dogs? We will take Roughead in a straight swap, thanks!!!

He is from the Surf Coast and has red hair.. What other reason need there be?
The Bont or nothing. Don't they know we were going to sign Menz to a 10-year, $15 million deal?Nah Macrae pls
Straight Outta CobdenHe's from Cobden.
Like BF with sound?Trade week?? Fortnight?? Month?? Or whatever they call it... Is this the biggest WANK fest going around??
Listen to Trade radio.... BS show full of tossers.
SEN 1116.... BS flying around by so called i dunno... so called journos or sports pundits. I call them Tossers.
They make up shit all of them... and then give their opinions disguising them as fact as if they are some sort of experts??
Please give me a break.
Can't wait until the draft. Then it will start another line of BS of selling hope i guess.
Anyway...
RANT over.
Cheers Boys & GO CATTERS!!
He's a free agent so we get nothing.Menz to the dogs? We will take Roughead in a straight swap, thanks!!!

Could we trade him for Dahlhaus?He's a free agent so we get nothing.
Not necessarily, especially if he goes to the DogsHe's a free agent so we get nothing.
So is Roughy so not sure how that works.He's a free agent so we get nothing.
Roughy a FA also.Not necessarily, especially if he goes to the Dogs
Teams may receive compensation based on some random formula when they lose a free agent - WB have acknowledged that Dahlhaus is coming to us as a FA, and with the deal being reported as $2 million over 4 years it may be enough for them to receive compensation in the second round (either after their current pick or end of round 2).
If the WB sign Menzel as a FA it would impact the compensation they receive for losing Dahlhaus. WB currently have 4th round picks of 59 & 60 - they might prefer to offer one of them in a trade for Menzel, and that'd help us with points for f&s bidding or maybe use it to improve a trade outcome for McCarthy
On what grounds? Negligence would be a hard sell unless you could prove any reasonable surgeon would not have done the same thing, as he continued to get paid despite rehabbing. Lost potential earnings, maybe.
And before you keyboard warriors chime in saying “how could it not be”, you know nothing about the situation other than Gregson’s assessment, so are firing blind.
Yes and they asll tend to use the same ones. In otherwords there isn't a Geelong foot specialist. They will be referred however by the club medical crew.It would surprise me if the club kept specialist foot surgeons on staff. We probably outsourced this to specialist tbh.
