Every man and his dog seemed to think he was a walk up start to take over the docherty role.
Yes, he's been injured, but he did SFA when he actually got a chance to play.

No, I agree. Ive never seen anything from him that makes me think he can play.
I cannot understand for the life of me, why he is still on our list.

Byrne was a very nice kick, but I think that has diminished over the years.

He had great acceleration and top speed, but again, not sure if it remains, or if it will ever be the same, but it is something we lack.

It's all ifs, buts and maybes, and a little sad really but AFL is a tough business that takes no prisoners!

I won't be surprised if he's in the side this week, the club has a high opinion of him.

The latest news is that Phillips is done for the season.
Marchbank, Weitering and Simpson face tests and none have been ruled out, which probably means that none of them will play.

During the game it was reported as a knee, but watching it looked to me like he had done an abductor.

The old miss the goal pulled a hammy trick!

Sorry for being cynical, across all games I saw a few of those last weekend, even a Warnock type miss with delayed onset wobbliness! :o

I've a mate that calls it ruckmen's giraffe syndrome, it takes a moment for the signal to get to the head from the rest, or vice versa! ;D

Means we bring back Levi, probably not yet, or one of McKay or Kerr, preferable for the rest of the year.

Our idiot selection committee will probably pick Lobbe...lol.
