Will dropped again...

Maybe he'll be the trade bait?

Don't know if he'll be trade bait but I'm sure he'll be all offers considered.

Don't agree with dropping Will. Good to see Gourdis get a chance.

Why is Gourdis not listed as New?
Title: Re: Team for Round 20
Post by: Con65 on August 12, 2010, 06:03:51 PM
Infamy...he was listed as new when he was promoted and given an emergency spot after round 11 or 12 earlier this year.

I'm sorry WP but talking in riddles make you sound like Jackstar.

If you have something to say, say it FFS.

could only be talking about post id say.

regardless of form id play post at chb for the rest of the yr  orielly and gourdis good ins along with collins. getting games into these kids is what its about.

would also have looked at dropping one of white or nason . white nason cuz and king still means its a very small forward line. would have looked for a third tall option or strong medium sized player forward. we still fail to get structure right.

Post? Intersting. I've read what wp has said about him. Last time I was in Melbourne I caught up with an old mate who has a connection to the TAC league. In a football conversation he said he thought Post was lazy. I spoke to him again yesterday and asked him what he meant. He said that when he coached against him as a junior he would put a hard working player on him to test him out, and he never really rose to the challenge. Said he had heaps of talent but....

Post is only in to take some heat off Jack! I can't believe that Will got dropped, he rarely loses to his opponent! Good to see Goo get a go!

I'm just happy Goo got a game and good on O'Reilly as well. :thumbsup

Means Grimes is the only one who has not debuted this year.

lol cant think of a better chop at the selection table in McGuane & Thursfield for thier crap performance against Melbourne.
Moore was very lucky too
Good luck to Gourdis because this lad is the next generation backline  :thumbsup

I do too! Has the athletism to go with anyone in the competition and has improved his desposal skills dramatically running out of defence. Hope he can pull it together over the next few weeks.  :thumbsup

I think the only time I saw Gourdis play was in the NAB Cup.....Is he an upgrade on McGuane/Thursty/Moore ? OR is he "cut from the same cloth".

Taller, faster and has become a very high posession defender at VFL with regular games of around 30 disposals.
If he can adjust to AFL level over the next year or two like he has VFL we'll have a ripper on our hands, there won't be a forward in the league he can't keep up with.

Thanks Infamy....your report on Gourdis has me a little bit aroused. :thumbsup

If Post is going to play up forward he has got to kick goals and not just be a foil. Given that we have quite a few defenders in the team maybe Astbury should play in the forward line. Would like to see how Gourdis goes against Waite if Waite plays in the forward line.

I feel sorry for Moore because IMO he can play and having to play slongside these 2 would be hard.
These 2 dont even look like footballers. Thursfield the size of a stick after what 5 years in the system.


We need to find 2 more backmen because these 2 are duds.
