Vickery's on going selection is a prime example of why Dimma cannot in fact coach. Most other people know that the days of a stay at home full forward are gone. Vickery's inability to get to contests mean that we play with one less man in the contested area. But there is more to it than aerobic capacity. He is a ball watcher not a ball chaser. He has not improved in 5 years. He would not get a game in a good side. He seems to have lost his kicking mojo also compared to previous years and with that in limbo he has nothing much to offer. McBean must be given a go for this year and if no prospect then discarded rapidly while we try again. Can't we get some players with the go-factor? The recruiters have lacked the ability to find these. From the selection of pretty boy Fiora instead of Pavlich to now this has been the theme.

I saw Ty cover a lot of ground last year when had a 20+ possession game against Collingwood and kicked 6 goals.
Perhaps he's lazy?

If you think that's the case then most staff & players at most clubs must also be "jealous".... :shh

Not sure many have as strong feelings as you seem too

Nevertheless, I'm amazed this troll thread made 6 pages

If you're a coterie member, then that statement takes on a whole new meaning.

I missed this comment and assume it was directed at me.

Firstly, I am a coterie ember because I want to give the club I love as much money as I can afford and in return, I get some benefits. Just like a normal membership, people give their money over to help the club and in turn get something in return.
There really is no difference except the amount given is higher and thus the benefits are more.

The only reason I mentioned it here is that I was being questioned on the source of my comments and thus had to explain how Damian Hardwick spoke to me and others at the club.

I understand not everyone is in the financial situation to be able to hand over thousands of dollars to the club. I thought because I had the advantage of hearing from our coach, that I'd share some of the things he told us, so others that didn't have this advantage could also get the same advantage as I have without having to pay up for it.

If you'd rather me not share any information I get from the club then I won't. I find your comments extremely derogatory and short sighted although they don't personally affect me because they say a lot more about you than they say about coterie members.

If you meant something else by your comments then I'm sorry if I misinterpreted them.
