Really Infamy and here I was thinking that a forum is the place to have your say. Many spend time here bagging each other e.g. you and Jack,,,, and others bag the club. I don't think Edwards should be in the team and against every side so far this year he has done very little to sway me otherwise.

I can't control the coaching staff or who they pick and that will never change, but I can still have my say..  :thumbsup

If you are going to play Edwards try him up forward. If Foley plays his toughness at the ball is similar if not better than Jackson's. So the loss of Jackson hopefully will not hurt us too much plus Foley is a much better kick for goal. Really need Thursfield in Defence. Agree with comments may surprise Freo.

Title: Re: Team for Round 5

It is strange. As was Morton starting games on the bench despite being our 2nd highest goalkicker. Is he carrying some niggle? His defensive pressure not up to scratch for the coaching staff? Will there be a late omission? Makes no sense to me otherwise ???.


Simmo on the bench behind Vickery although it's hard to take the way the team's been named seriously with Rance as ruck rover  ???.

Hardwick is sticking with the young debutants so he's sticking to his blueprint. Astbury and Jack in the KPP is getting closer to our future line-up. Add Griffiths eventually and move Jack to the 3rd tall forward role is the final piece.

Dea had a shocker last game but i think he is in hardwick long term

maybe more so in 12-18-24 months instead of now but he hopfully will continue to blood the kid

why is "Double M" (Mitch Morton) out?

 ???

Farmer, Nahas, Edwards, Nason, Foley - all under 180cm  ???

glad to have Axel Foley back, spoke to a friend who is at Coburg and he said "Foley was a star last week, before he was benched for the rest of the final quarter." something like, Foley played the first 3 minutes of the last and that was it!

i think Polo and Morton are in the gun with Hardwick! when are their contracts up?

Title: Re: Team for Round 5
Post by: Owl on April 23, 2010, 10:58:06 PM
I don't think that's the reason, I think he is getting groomed to play a different role funnily enough.  He has been playing further up the ground hence you havn't seen him near the goals nearly as much in the last few games.  Looks like they want to test out the younger forwards a bit and perhaps see how flexible Morton can be.  He is a good footballer so I don't think he will be missing long.
Title: Re: Team for Round 5
Post by: Penelope on April 24, 2010, 08:39:54 AM
I'm tending to think along the the same lines as Owl. I think Hardwick is doing a lot of experimenting. Trying different structures and different players just to have a look-see.

Biggest problem at punt road has been holding on to players who CANNOT play.
Other clubs just keeping turning them over early.
Example of this would be the disgracefull and farcical decision to delist/rookie/promote Cam Howat 3 years in a row,
Its obvious to all except RFC that all 3 wont make it. Collins should be playing netball is way too timid, Likewise Nahas who is way too small, and Farmer tries but isnt up to it, Add White, Rance , King ,Polak, McMahon,Hislop and Graham and there is the receipe for the Wooden Spoon, HARSH BUT TRUE !
There is 10  players ( a quarter of the list ) who wouldnt get a game at another club

Well the Morton for Nahas move IMO may wark, Morton doesn't even look like he is interested these days to be honest. Yeah sure he runs around the mark and kicks one maybe two goals a game but does he work as hard as Nahas, not IMO. nahas is aslo a much better tackler and applies 100% more forward pressure than Morton. This may free some space up for Nahas to work in the forward line and up the ground a bit like he normally does. Don't write Nahas off totally because he hasn't had a great start to the year, not many players have. Remember least year, we all couldn't get enough of Nahas.

Don't bag this move until after the game.. :thumbsup

Thursty, Morton and Connors yes. The other three need to do more at VFL level before being promoted or in Griffs case is unknown at AFL level. Even a number of those in our current 22 are still questionable/unproven.

Geez dude

they are all 21 yoa or younger

why right them off??   ??? ???

if this was geelong or collingwood or bulldogs they would not get a game at this stage

Biggest problem at punt road has been holding on to players who CANNOT play.
Other clubs just keeping turning them over early.
Example of this would be the disgracefull and farcical decision to delist/rookie/promote Cam Howat 3 years in a row,
Its obvious to all except RFC that all 3 wont make it. Collins should be playing netball is way too timid, Likewise Nahas who is way too small, and Farmer tries but isnt up to it, Add White, Rance , King ,Polak, McMahon,Hislop and Graham and there is the receipe for the Wooden Spoon, HARSH BUT TRUE !
There is 10  players ( a quarter of the list ) who wouldnt get a game at another club

Hey Mods !!!!
Is there a Block posts from a specific user function?
If not then this constant crap should motivate you to investigate adding it to the forums. I know I wouldnt be the only one using it for this user

 

I'd like one too

I have one and it works a treat.  It works like this - just stop replying to the posts of idiots.  After a while you do get over the initial desire to reply and point out the rampant stupidity of their comments, and it makes a big difference knowing that you no longer validate their 'thinking' (and I use that term very, very, very loosely) or waste your precious time by responding.  Applied mine a while ago now and it is working a treat.   ;)

No need to bait me Jack, you are obviously not astute enough to realise that on occasion I do reply to your posts.  Or does your ego need a little helping hand by knowing that you're not on my 'ignore' list?

 ;D

Well the Morton for Nahas move IMO may wark, Morton doesn't even look like he is interested these days to be honest. Yeah sure he runs around the mark and kicks one maybe two goals a game but does he work as hard as Nahas, not IMO. Nahas is aslo a much better tackler and applies 100% more forward pressure than Morton. This may free some space up for Nahas to work in the forward line and up the ground a bit like he normally does. Don't write Nahas off totally because he hasn't had a great start to the year, not many players have. Remember least year, we all couldn't get enough of Nahas.

Don't bag this move until after the game.. :thumbsup

So do I get a gold star for this... ;D ;D, pretty well summed his night up before he even played.. :thumbsup

Totally agree, to me sometimes Morton doesn't look like he is enjoying his football, I am probably wrong but that might explain why he was dropped to Coburg.

If Morton is in and out of the side this year he might have some trade value.

Maybe he'd like to join his brother at the Dees. With all their young guys, the Dees might look to offload some picks this year  :shh

Something wrong down at Punt Rd.
Collins , Nahas and Farmer get games in front of Morton ::) :banghead

so you reckon a forward having 1 shot on goal a week is doing enough to hold their spot ::)...not in my books partner

And you think Collins , Farmer and Nahas can play AFL ?? Your on drugs partner ::)

Hmmmmmm based on the Freo game the answer would be yes for Collins and Nahas.
