i firmly believe ivans replacement should be in our system right now im asking is he i dont think so.

He's in the system already, just most likely not ours yet.  No need for us to spend the time and take the risk in developing him until our window is truly open and we can shop for someone who will fill the bill perfectly.  Would rather us be developing/trialling as many mids and KPP's as we can until we have the ability and depth to win a flag, then go shopping for a ruckman to top it all off.

I agree, just because he is not at RFC now doesn't mean he won't be soon.

I have said it before

Jonathon Griffin, offer him more than he's getting now at Freo and a structure he can relate to, He is wasting away sitting on the bench waiting for Turf Toe to hoof it.

Reckon it would be almost impossible to tempt him out of WA, but agree the bloke would be a ripper playing for us. Just the sort we need IMO.

I reckon we have p p p plenty, any more and someone would start crying that we don't have enough mids,

I am excited abt seeing the X Factor getting a few games this year. I watched him a bit last and thought his decision making, play anticipation and ball delivery was pretty good, hopefully he can step it up to the top level.

Holding onto a simple chest mark would be an absolutely spiffing start.   :'(

from here on in im going to be bringing up old posts so watch what you say and make sure you are clear on your context. its a pain in the arse continually having to defend your point of view which is consistent.
as i said your grasping at straws as usual.

Please dont bring up your old posts as no one should be subjected to that eye sore stuff.

other than one or two extraordinary exceptions (natanui) most ruckmen dont hit their peak until post 25..Our ruck stocks at moment are excellent.
there is no need to panic nor rush Ty

jeezus perhaps we should wait for the movie.

lets try and be concise shall we

1:how do you get that i am confident derrickx will make it out of that? :huh - was going to say  what other conclusion could one draw.  but the honest answer is a bit of deserved sarcasm.

2: was not your critism of the recruitment of maric a critism of the process ( which was my original point)? -  no one knows what your original point is. it came out of thin air and needed a mind reader to interpret it. what was it you said oh yeah. ( but you said that when we recruited maric). was there a criticism of maric in the post you quoted.i dont think so. im still not sure what your on about. just taking the opportunity to have a shot as far as i can see.

3 If you acknowledged you got it wrong and maric why did you challenge me to find posts where you critised him. - did i thats a figment of your rich imagination.i asked you to bring up what i said you chose those posts.

4 why is it gutless to find posts like you asked me to. i posted the link to the whole post so the context of the post could be seen?  - lets be real here your just looking for any opportunity to try discredit any one who dares criticise what they the club do. i hadnt criticised ivan at all on this thread but you sure tried to make a point. you even go so far as to basically call me aliar.

5 did you or did you not question the process when we got maric ( which is what my original point was?) - bloody hell is it concievable there is more than one process. where you take players is a process in itself wouldnt you agree or cant you get your head around that simple process.. did i not say we needed mature and younger  ruckmen as well. why can you only do/  have one process and not the other. nope its not me who doesnt comprehend.

6 do you understand what my original point was? - clearly not as i said it would take a mind reader to decipher that first post. i thought you were doing nothing more than having a crack.which lets face it you were.

7 Have you posted that we don't have enough rucks on the list, because if you have it makes no sense to then say that because we picked up stephenson it must mean we have no faith in derrickx (which is pretty illogical in itself)? we either had enough rucks or we didn't, which is it? - you know full well ive posted we dont have enough rucks on the list. is it not possible to say this and also say we should have taken someone other than stephenson. bloody hell.

all but two are yes/no answers. please stay on topic with your answers. - lol no they didnt require yes and nos you would have liked that.

yours sincerely,
Mr Gutless
hello mr gutless or whatever it is you are.  you have your answers. go dredge some more posts up will ya this is fun, oh in future please learn to make yourself clear its becoming real hard to decipher anything you write  ;)

Correct use:

Your = shows stuffiing possession
You're = you stuffing are

Do you type your own password in or do you get your state appointed carer to do it?

which you somehow construed into a mammoth sh!tfight, most of which had nothing do do with the above and consisted largely as has been pointed out, circular arguments
