Grrofunger, nice perspective, given that somebody else is already calling for us to tank games, third year in a row I believe and at about the same time of the year too!


Massive hits??
Was his face shattered?????
Poor guy.

Synbad, when is Campo off contract with the club? Is it at the end of this year?

This year both Campo and Whitnall are out of contract. 1 million plus minus what they get if they stay.
We have Corey Beauie Mott and Harf done too..
We can chase a couple of good players. ....

Sanity .

At the moment its about self preservation. In my opinion there are a couple of players that in their hearts dont believe will be around for a premiership so theyre milking things ...

Interesting come end of year.

Gunna get my hear kicked in,but after reflecting on the game i thought we did OK.On my key indicaters we pretty much broke even.Those being centre clearances,hard ball gets and inside fifties.We actually got slaughtered in the loose ball gets.Shit i despise that stat.Bloody haven for the dwellars and parasytes.Still,thats what killed us.Worst thing,most occured in our inside fiftyI think the game plan needs a little tweak.We are working it out of our back fifty quite nicely,but thats when it goes pear shaped.Gotta give that long bomb the flick unless we have equal numbers back there.Just hold that ball and show a little patience if the numbers dont favour us.In opur eagerness to get in there quick,we are giving the ball up too easily.The opposition are making it impossible for Fev and Lance.Reckon we gotta break up our patern of play occasionally,coz we are so easy to read,and thus to counteract.We gotta get proactive and throw a bit of confusion intu the opposition.Make no mistake,the hawks will mega flood on friday night,and the same old wont do the trick.

Because we dont have any defensive forwards its like bowling to Gilchrist.,. The faster it gets bowled the harder it gets smashed back over your head.
Denis wont change his style.He will simply find those that suit his style.
If you cant tackle like a demon youre gawn!!!

Its not an even contest when you are continually outnumbered.Just a little tweak,not a major reconstruction.By the way,nice to make your aquaintance Synbad.Where the hell have you been fella.Kept my eye out for you at the magoos today but unsighted.Just in case you werent there,your love child Eddie everywhere nailed a lazy 7 and gave a couple away.Suggest you front the G. on friday night Synbad,coz thats wdere he ll be next appearing.

Do you like to prepare the surface properly???
Or do you just paint over the top when you paint???

Im a perfectionist... i love the surface to be prepared beautifuly.. as long as its not by me.
Would this thread be considered hijacked???
Will we get into trouble????

Umaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!

Preparation is overrated, I think.

Light sanding for a normal room. If its a Laundry or Kitchen.. sugar soap then sand.

How much interest do you think there might be in Campo in the marketplace? Are we talking premium contract still? Would his management would be wanting to test the marketplace?

I doubt Campo will command a heap of interest.
Im sure his manager will try and test the market place out.
I dont think Campo will get what he is thinking he will get... but that will get sorted out at the end of the year...
Im speculating... Denis might sign him to another 4 year 2 million dollar contract. Cos he gets kicks and plays with a shattered face

Campo can have as many disposals as he likes BM, fact is theyre cheap on the whole.. he runs past players and seldom gets his own ball..

We need a grunt player in the middle to help out.


BTW Does Campo ever hit someone on the chest on a lead? Most of his kicks are up in the air to no one in particular. Its like watching my son play Auskick (i hope he doesn't read this) :shock:

Camporeale can do it, but he's not playing in that style any more. He's been forced to do the hard yakka but doesn't really. Rarely breaks through the lines because most of his kicks come off half back.
