I'm talking about telling them to take a fair amount of money or @#$%&! off, so the opposite.

Lol . No sermon intented.

No emotion involved from my perspective.
If you ask impartial supporters about who got the better deal, I'd suggest 95% would say Adelaide are well in front at the moment.
Thats just the reality IMO.

Looking forward to seeing our potential realised.

Are you guys for real?

A player who turns up every game and kicks a few vs. a part time soft kick collector in defence?

Putting aside dollars paid Adelaide are winning on ANY assessment of output.

Argue upside all you like but we haven't seen the upside from Dale Thomas being recruited.

A bit like Gibbs taking less money from us to stay?

He got himself 5 years on a little less which more than makes up for it.

Betts chose to leave us because he didn't want to accept our lesser offer... now Hendo and others may try their luck.

Once again our selfish culture coming to the fore... no one willing to sacrifice for their mates.

Ask yourself how Hawthorn has the capacity to offer Buddy $1m and still keep their list in tact yet we struggle...

Good players commanding decent salaries and shit players not taking up cap space they don't deserve?

Remove the minimum cap figure.

I think Henderson has credible claims to be our highest paid player.

Not if he wants to kick the bulk of his goals crumbing off other forwards he doesn't.

Second half of his was much better than the first, but still too easily leads his opponent to the football.

Our window open again?

I cant see us losing a game for rest of season

So what jimmae?
He beats them regardless.
Henderson was damn aggressive in the first half and was easily our best big man...IMO

Thank god he can also rove off our fumbling Is that his fault.
He's a bloody all rounder.

He can run, kick straight passes, kick straight for goals, close or from 50, Mark on the chest, over the head, rove, play KPF and KPB. I'd be surprised if he isn't an A grader. In fact, who is better than him and more valuable than Hendo in the CFC? In your opinion, and why?

Just 4 rounds in and he's played a lot of roles, forward and back. It's because he is capable, not incapable.

We were well positioned for that in years gone by, or at least whilst Sir Richard lived.

If we have more billionaires and more millionaires willing to spend the coin needed on players who will win us a flag beyond our opponents' benefactors will then I'm all for it, but I'm not confident we can play that game of bluff.

Then you've got to watch out for contacts we or our opponents have overseas like Brunei or the Arab Peninsula. They have very very deep pockets.

Eddie and the Emirates are out there you know. Can we trump them?

_________________

The way I see it bondi he can make the contact on the forward early and move off him, putting him on the back foot and buying more space to secure the ball closer to the corridor and without contact, or he can let the midfielder put the pass where he roughly wants it, and he can lead late.

What he's doing right now most of the time, is leading hard at the ball carrier without trying to forcibly break contact with his defender before the lead, meaning the defender feels him break from touch, has been watching the incoming ball carrier and has Hendo at least in his peripheral vision. From there is just genetics, and Hendo might have good repeat efforts, but he is not a world beater in a straight sprint.

Another bloke like that kicks them regularly now, and his name is Josh Kennedy. Food for thought.

Did Bryce Gibbs give away that Mick Malthouse is about to quit?

DID Carlton star Bryce Gibbs mangle his words or was he revealing a bombshell about Mick Malthouse’s future?

The Blues midfielder was speaking at a press conference ahead of Carlton’s clash with Collingwood on Friday night — Malthouse’s 715th as coach. That takes him past Collingwood legend Jock McHale for the most games coached at VFL-AFL level.

Former North Melbourne champ Wayne Carey thinks so.

“My mail is that Mick won’t be coaching too long after he breaks the record on Friday night,” Carey said on Triple M.

“Someone who gives me this mail was very strong on the fact that not too long after (the record) that Mick will not be coaching Carlton.

i wonder who carey's source is?

there were some whispers going around fairfax on Guy McKenna replacing malthouse should he retire before the season. CFC def won't sack him, but Mick might bail.

what's the general consensus with Bluey McKenna? i thought he did ok with the suns on gameday – esp now in light of how bad eade's going and the suns were considered locks for finals possibly even top 4/5 this season.

I gotta question player development & team culture under him though ... no suns player has really emerged as a superstar, and more than a few had the talent to i would've thought?
