Big couple of weeks coming up for him. Burgoyne probaly this week, then Roberston after the break. These poor c**** wont know what hit them. MJ will probably get this job, as they are old drinking mates. Hank on either Brad Green or Travis Johnson for me - one of their barometer style mid fielders ...

Port are even on more of a roller coaster ride then our team this year. They have a few young blokes who are struggling, plus a big one in Tredrea. But Williams has come out on record & called his team 'soft' - the ultimate insult a coach can lay at his players. Expect Port to come hard at us in...

Well I have been a Sheedy knocker from way back, but I ain't complaining about how we are playing. If we keep showing this much spirit & never give in attitude in all our games, then the coach is doing his job. While I would still like him gone at season's ends (only if a high quality replacemen...

His spot is on the line this week & i won't be surprised if he's dropped. As an outside receiver, he will find it very hard to get a kick this week against the Swannies, as they will close up the game in the tight confines of the SCG. I don't think he will make it actually, as outside receivers ...

If this year is anything to go by, the Sydney game is a huge danger game. How have we been beaten so far this year - man on man games. What do the Swannies do better than any other team in the comp, especially on the small little park called the SCG - man on man. Expect a loss as they play on our gr...

I don't believe Lloyd is kicking the ball as well as pre-injury. His kicks have lost penetration & accuracy. Even that last goal he got after the siren was a heilcopter floater - not the straight-as-an-arrow 55m drop punts we are used to. He doesn't seem to be able to hit that sweet spot on the ...

Will be a beauty this bloke. Started off in the back line against some pretty handy players like Rucuitto & Chapman, but showed his true worth in last year's game against the Saints. Fantastic left foot kick (better & more consistent than Dyson's), & a definite midfield prospect - look o...

Just call me Nostradamus

I tell you that Shaun Higgins from the Doggies is bloody handy & a dangerous goal kicker - will get the award this week for sure.

Robbie's team will be pretty close to the mark, although I'de prefer Joey in there instead of Liber. Does Jared Brennan qualify as he seems to want to replicate Kouta's one hand carrying of the ball bullshit (although he only gets it about 1/10th of the time Kouta does). Just as an aside, many many ...

It was a good win, but will count for nought if we get done by the Tigers next week.

This is what gives me the irates in footy tipping. If I had known that Saints were going to make 4 late changes, there is no way in hell I would have picked them. Feel sorry for any punters out there that put their hard earned on them.

Just as an aside, Malthouse is looking at blooding his 5th debutant this week against the Doggies. We have blooded 3 & we are the ones who are supposed to be in the middle of a big rebuilding phase. Sheeds is definitely selecting players to save his career, rather than coaching for the future. I...

Bomber over Rowdy anyday. While Rowdy can blame injuries this year, in previous years he has never been able to stop the up&down yo-yo seasons that the Dees had. Even with minimal injuries the Dees would like a million dollars one season & for no reason plummet down the ladder the next. Too ...

this has become the biggest farce in football. Patrick Smith was on SEN this morning banging on the bombers to end media speculation on sheedy's position. As if the statement by both club and coach that the position will be reviewed at seasons end wasnt enough. i make 4 points here. 1-The only reas...

I don't agree with the whole idea - no matter what anyone says, Sheeds would have been compromised in what he said, knowing there was a TV camera looking over his shoulder (watch your p's & q's).

Can you imagine Sheeds telling Courtney Johns to clean up Daniel Harris on his first opportunity?

And filth, you get people on here that want players like him to be brought straight up into the seniors. Imagaine the crap that would flow then. Lesson learnt is that 1. He was brought back too early 2. Unless top notch players (Hird, Lloyd, Fletch etc) ALL injured players should play their first ga...

STI, if there were any records of the old BT in existence, I (along with dodgey, I think) back in 2003 & 2004 used to go on n about giving the young blokes a go. Some of the old timers like filthy & R67 may remember. I coined the phrase 'Sixthdon' during the season of 2004 as everyone used ...

There is no point in making the finals and just making up the numbers. When we do make the finals whenever that will be we must be prepared to give it a real crack. There are several players on the list that won't be able to help the club do that. Just like we did between 2002 & 2004 - where yo...
