Hopefully the success of Schultz & White will convince Port thay can turn him around too.....and he's also a Croweater - start the trade negotiations now RFC.....

....or just delist the useless prick, I don't care.....

What success of White?

Getting a start in the side that's currently leading the ladder after being an in and out sub for a mid-table also-ran - what would you call it ?

Ok then yeah he is smashing it what a superstar

I have stuck with Edwards for as long as is humanly possible, he has lost me now, useless.

x2

I know that feeling, I jumped off a couple of years back 2011 I think it was against the pies a night game. 3rd qtr Lids went nuts and we got a run on and closed the gap from 10 goals to about 4( lol) we were all over them and shed ran into an open goal 3 times in 10 mins for a total combined return of 1 behind and 2 OOTF. Lost me that night and have never looked back. Just not good enough - The end

Do we need an indigenous player on the list to keep Dreamtime?

As far as I can see that may be the only reason he gets a game…..

So it's only "success" if he's BOG every week eh Chuck-a-wobbly? Careful - you almost sound like a darksider there.

If we could keep lids, Cotch, Dusty and Jack and have 18 Matty whites we would be set

TM remember that game well. The phrase was coined on here by someone about him momentum killer. Was that game and I had lost him much earlier. Was almost cajoled in 2012 but remained firm. Critical misses against Nth in the last quarter and turnovers earlier that year in close games sealed the deal fully.
Will never be a player other than a less than ordinary one. Plain and simple.
Even at Geelong, Christensen, Motlop and Stokes all on one leg would get selection before the less than ordinary Titch.

Will he get dropped, we all know the answer, Hardwick's credibility is decreasing by the day and if he doesn't make a statement at the selection table this week then I think he may as well resign as coach. I think his problem is he is a great bloke but like a teacher who let's you talk in class and doesn't give homework eventually the kids take advantage. In this case its the Griggs, Edwards, Newman's, Houlis who just expect and get provided with a walk up start every week regardless of form. A message needs to be sent to them very quickly and if Hardwick isn't prepared to do it then find someone who is for while these pretenders are in the team we are going nowhere fast.

Well what do ya know - played well as a sub....rule is made for him.... been wanting this since they brought it in - still had to have his little brain explosion with the playing on in the square but luckliy got a second chance second later and made amends. Could this finally see him become the impact player he's been threatening to be but never delivered upon his entire career ...or could it be a sign he's finally on the way out? Either way would suit me just fine but unfortunately I feel there's little doubt Hardwick will see today's effort as a reason to start him again and all will be undone.

Not disputing that thought he was influential with his tackling and goals in that quarter.

Another above average game adding to his tally of 25 out of 135 odd games.

Get rid of him.

Matt White was an ordinary footballer before we made him a sub. Amazing what confidence does to a players output
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Nup. White always put his head over the onion, had a nice kick and unreal pace. Average/solid player at Richmond. Clearly our chip chip, stuff around with it gameplan isn't suited to Greg's style of play. Port play a lovely style of footy that suits Whitey. Obviously he's going alright and Dan Richardson made a cock up. Hope Greg and Dan bump into each other at some stage this year.
