The Monday Soapbox - Round 15

Re: The Monday Soapbox - Round 15

Well if they read WOOF we would have got multiple first rounders for him.

...and EVERYONE would be chasing that Young bloke who plays reserves for Carlton.

I really wish that we were allowed to bring up our post histories right about now.

Re: The Monday Soapbox - Round 15

But only the posts where I say that Young sucks and not the ones where I say Young is possibly good and that we should be playing him over Gardner.

Their recruiters read WOOF and got the impression Sweet was a legend.

He really was loved on here. It was the anti-English choice, could've been Scott Wynd, now.

Don?t forget the key forward now on Melbourne?s list.

When I look at Port struggling with their ruckman it makes me appreciate English and Lobb that much more. I think it's a bit harder to find decent ruckman at the moment and I would have been to have recruited Teakle mid season with some doubts with English sticking with us.

Re: The Monday Soapbox - Round 15

I've been saying all along that I like Teakle - he plays with real enthusiasm and is 100% a forward marking threat.

I'm not a Sweet believer.

There's a great name for an album.

Speaking of ex-dogs at the Demons. Hasn't Lachie Hunter fallen off the face of the earth with very little fanfare.

But more importantly, where is Schache

This is a convenient thing to say now when you spent all of the last two years lamenting him not playing first ruck.

As there's no way to check that's what you actually said I'm happy to go off my memory of you being a Sweet booster.

I thought Hunter got injured in a recent game and was subbed out.

Yep that was my take as well. Could be wrong though

Yeah he did but that was his first game back for a while and he's barely played this season (2 games).

He is on 199 too !

Re: The Monday Soapbox - Round 15

Interesting (for want of a better word) listening to a number of media pundits blaming the Port players rather than the coach for their poor efforts. There is little talk of ‘losing the player group’ etc If this were us the media would be baying for Bevo’s blood saying things like ‘lost the playing group’, ‘no game plan’ , ‘time for a change’ etc - the bias is unbelievable. They are pointing to Hinkley”s win/ loss record for coaches over 200 games and how successful he is (2nd on the list) - don’t show any stats about his poor finals record in comparison to other coaches who have coached 200+ games. Typical media always showing stats to support their own arguments. Unbelievable.

Sadly I think the guy's off field stuff has caught up with him. A lot of 'disgruntled' Demons fans talking about his extra-curricular activities.
Shame really as with his huge tank as a wing you'd think the MCG would suit him
