Predergast, Deluca, Wiggins, Johnson and Whitnall can join Sporn, Bannister, Morrell, Longmuir and Norman on my list for trade or delist.

Eight rounds is enough to gain an understanding of who has improved and who hasn't. It is time to play the kids, Bentick, Simmo, Russell, Walker, Betts and Davies. Fisher and Hartlett when they are back from injury.

Now the second chance players are in there second year with the club, the urgency has dropped considerably. Teague and Scotland are the obvious exclusions to this.

Imagine a performance like the past two next week at Optus with a Melbourne team without Neitz and Miller.

I would third that - amazing how ill informed some opions can be - either that or just plain biased

I gave scotland props for his 4th quarter against the hawks

I WELL AND TRULY TAKE THOSE PROPS BACK !!

He is so lazy defensively and turns the ball over way too much - Bullants for him.

WIGGINS is a strange one - can do some very nice things one minute then be very very bad the next

Yeah but whatabout your whataboutism.

I only just got back from a night out and only caught the end of the delayed telecast here in Syd (damn it I forgot to set my VCR ).

The only thing I caught on TV was that we only had 3 goal kickers! Only three!!

Can someone pls assure me that we at least improved our effort from last week... and that at least our young players did well. That's the only thing I really hoped for this week. How did Simmo, Bentick, Davies and our other young players perform?

I'm getting a really bad feeling of dread building up inside of me!

Simmo, Bentick, Walker and to a lesser extent Davies would all be still pulling the pine out of their respective arses.

Denis just doesn't get it

They all looked decent(ish) in patches but its hard when your up and down(from the bench that is) more than a honeymooners nighty

@#$%&!*n denis

Jaysus! I've just finished the reading the 1st page of dannyboy's thread. Bloody Hell! Even Denis has copped a spray from you as well Must admit I had very low expectations for this match given the reality that has hit me over the past fortnight... but I hoped there would be something from our younger players at least.. and they spent it watching the carnage from the bench!

Well all I can say is I hope they get more of a go in the coming weeks. Coz it looks to be the only thing we can salvage out of the train wreck that is fast becoming our year 2005.

Thanks for your input grrofunger. I'm drunk as hell but the stuff I've read so far is very sobering to say the least!!
