    Re: Ward says GWS big chance to beat Dogs

    Just watching AFL 360, Robbo putting it out there that the Dogs will and should, "go after" Ward. Funny to hear Bazza saying he didn't think they bore him any ill will, and that he'd be surprised if they gave him any extra attention. Robbo fired up, asking has footy become so clinical that players wouldn't fire up in those circumstances. Cam Mooney agreed with him, and FWIW, so do I.

    I am not saying we need to go out and send him to hospital but we definitely sound more meek than most. I fully expect us just treat him like any other player during the game and do the hugs and smiles post game.

    It is exactly what will happen, to our shame.

    So whoever wraps him in a big tackle is going to score massive points on the forum.

    No, it's going to take a bit more than that. Several big tackles, which he takes a while to get up from

    We won't, because what he implies is correct, but I wish we'd really come out and belt them in every aspect of the game. Especially physically, send him home on a stretcher.

    Surely it must burn someone at our Club? Or are we just that pathetic?
    This is the most anger I have felt towards Ward since he left. Not sure if Im angry at him or more so angry at the lack of response our players will give him on field.

    It really is just a "job" to these guys. More passion in suburban footy.

    it's kind of what I meant. As long as they do it legally, I'm all for it.

    This.

    And also tell Picken to squeeze as hard as he possibly can at every tackle

    Remember how Brisbane use to smash Marc Murphy for a few years after he decided against joining them? I wish we could do the same.

    And when another employer offers you 4 or 5 times what you get at your place of employment you go... I would think that 99% of players of Callan's age would have taken the deal.

    Don't hate the player... Hate the system.

    Re: Ward says GWS big chance to beat Dogs

    Can we bring Libba snr out of retirement.

    I've past caring about Ward, as long as the bloke we put on him takes him to the cleaners and he doesn't get a touch I'll be happy.

    Totally agree about it being the system. Hence why previously I could understand but the article is rubbing our faces in it.

    Certainly is frustrating.

    It is healthy to vent your emotions at times. Even if it is misdirected.

    No point trying to smash Cement Head. You'll just end up with a sore fist.

    I don't think I have ever seen a player so immune to getting belted.
