Ellard was terrible. Mclean needs to get some form back. White ... no. Rowe... no.

In: Graham Casboult Cripps Walker.

Cripps ain't ready for senior footy yet. Doesn't have the endurance not the tank to play at AFL level yet

Forgot about Graham. He deserves a chance after doing consistantly well in the VFL.

I think Ratts best after the home and away was 6th, mm got us to 9th last year, we are getting really desperate if we take credit for a default finals appearance. I wasn't a Ratts fan, but he was getting half the $ Mick's on so MM needs to do better than 9th and this year ain't shaping well.

Play Cripps as Sub.


He will have no impact as a sub .

I think at least he would get some experience and would at the very least offer more that McLean at the moment (who is out of form/and having a sook about it) and unfortunately I don't think Ellard hurts the opposition in any form either.

The playin group is shit... look past your narrow minded theory on the coach


Well Ratten had a worse list ... and did a lot better ... but never fear ... I believe in Dr Strangelove and the MC. One day people will write songs about them.


In what universe was the list worse under Ratts? Judd in his prime, fitter Kreuzer and Murphy to work with, Stevo and fev for his first 2 years.

I don't think mick is perfect but your consonant rhetoric is like 1000's more respective than Synbad's with about 1000th of the intelligence to back it up.


But he's improving
2013 = super duper
2014 = Dr Strangelove
See BBW, when you put your mind to it, you can learn two new words each year

BTW, just to crush the argument even more, you can add Fev to that list for 3 years

I personally don't think the problem is with the coach, the players, the recruiters, or any single constituency. But to say that Ratten did better (let alone A LOT BETTER), well BBW, you really are off with the fairies. You should stick to your stand up routines, and leave footy alone..... It's possible that it's just not your field.


And stand up comedy is?
Bernie Fraser is funnier.

People calling for Levi recall, ask yourselves this....

If he can not cement a spot in a side that is crying out for a key forward, what is that telling you ?

Levi / Rowe / White = crap key position leftovers from the Ratts/Hughes era.
Problem is someone has to play there and with Kreuzer out someone has to relieve ruck. Casboult is probably the best available of that lot.

Casboult and White didn't come form the main draft so if we got anything out of them it was a bonus. Rowe, on the other hand, was a 2nd rounder in the main draft.



Why don't we bring in cripps and he can relieve ruck and be an on baller! He's bloody big enough.

Casboult offers plenty more as a forward than a resting ruck. Also allows Hendo to be a floater. I think cas is slightly more important than we think
