I might of been watching a diff game

But i thought big red played a decent game.

He was definantly a B grade player in that game, not A grade, but he would of been in the top 10 players on the ground

I don't the last three weeks should determine Lance's future. If he plays 3 good games over the period he will stay on the list correct? If that is the case, the football department are making a huge error in judgement.

Surely his future should be judged on the whole season and not on three weeks.

For mine, regardless of what he has done over the past two weeks and what he does next week, he's a goner.

@#$%&! all.

At least Tarrant can run and can keep up with the speed of the game.

PROS

We made sure of this one 8)

Kruezer 8)

Hampson's rucking in the 3rd 1/4: He may not have put the ball onto our midfielder's chests, but he won most of the hitouts. He has a massive athletic leap and jumped all over McIntosh. :-D


CONS

The season hasn't finished yet

Tigers beating the scum :? Oh wait.....hang on... is that meant to be a pro? I don't know anymore....... I am sick of this season, please end now with a loss, PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Once again he was moved off an opponent after being taken to the cleaners. :?
When he can actually play 4 quarters without being chopped up by an opponent and protected by the coaching staff, I'd consider putting him in the top 10 on the ground.
You'd hate to be one of our young inexperienced defenders. Not only do they have to beat there own opponent, they then have to tame Whitnalls man after he's been carved up and gone to the forward line to hide.

This has been going for 2 bloody years and they still persist with him in defence.
When will our MC finally get the message that Whitnall is finished!!
Logic would tell you that he is a goner but with the boys club culture at carlton (ie kernahan) don't be surprised if he is there next season.
Its time to get real and rather then investing time with Whitnall we should be putting the same efforts into Josh Kennedy.

SOS had it in his contract that he was shifted off a full forward once he had kicked 4 goals on him. :P



But he usually went down to Full Forward and kicked 4 himself. :wink:

You're kidding me right? I had these players as better than him at the very least:

Kangaroos:
HARVEY
SANSBURY
WELLS
PETRIE
McINTOSH
EDWARDS
HARRIS
A. SIMPSON
RAWLINGS


Carlton:
WAITE
BENTICK
BOWER
SCOTLAND
CARRAZZO

CONS:

Channel Ten and Foxtel seem to think that having the Fremantle game on both stations at the same time instead of the Blues/Roos game is good programming, especially when half of WA would rather stick steak knives in their eyes than watch Fremantle win.

PROS:

I didn't get to see the game....


POW - ridiculous programming - i had to listen to bloody lyon, brawshaw and the other bozos instead of watching the game

stupid perth - stupid dockers



It was live into Sydney :wink:

Correct.

May not play this week anyway.

If he is injured he should play..... it will be the very last time he will wear navy blue.... and if he is really shocing and helps us win the extra pick the boys can all get together and carry him off...a hero.

In the meantime we have a team to build.
One that will work singlemindedly in bring us and themselves a flag.

That team will include Kreuzer and the best possible midfielder to add to our stable of young guns.


This club is going places... unfortunately for Lance ts an express... and ts not stopping all stations.
But thats the hard cold facts for footballers. They nust do the best with what they have and give it their best shot . Thats why i admire blokes like BEntick and ot bokes ike Lance .

Bentick will extract everything he ca for himself,. He will give it his best shot... and when its his turn to hang up his boots.. its no regrets!!!.. cos he knows he could not have done anything more. He will play his every game like its his last.
Each session in the gym is no bull... he will will his body to be stronger than anybody elses...he will will himself to hold that ball in no matter how many opposition players are trying to strip him of it.
Not the most talented... but a true soldier for the cause!!!

I love him!
