Moir is one of the great wastes of obvious talent. Reminds me of Troy Menzel going back a few years. All talent but not the output to match.
Really think jack ison is going to be what Moir should have been. Same skill level, but just harder and wants it more. Doing the little things well, which Moir hasn’t done
Moir doesnt appreciate the natural talent he has, the skills are easy for him but there is more to the game than just having great skills and having to concentrate for 4 quarters and not be carefree seems too hard for him.
Nope, not just win, we need to be focussed on crushing an opponent for a generation.
Hurting them to the point this generation of CheatsFC players never recover, eternally subservient to Carlton, we must show we are prepared to inflict an eternal bruise!
Until we develop that killer instinct, we are consigned to mediocrity, there is no playing nice, nice in AFL is reserved for also rans!
I apologise if I offend someone with comments like this, but it is reality, not an idealistic meme!
Seems there are a lot of nervous supporters on the forum. I'm not one of them. JF won't allow any complacency to creep in and nor will the younsters. The Blues by 55.
Agree...Bombers are no good and hopefully we slaughter them and they react by wanting the messiah Hird back and then they stay down for another ten years.
Some of our blokes look they are done at the club and know their fate, Fogarty is probably the exception and has tried hard. Young has been poor on Gerryn who has kicked three on him and Moir who is a great kick just turns the ball over with poor execution and lazy thought process on a regular basis. Not sure who is playing on Edwards but he needs a spell on the bench, Derksen missing has left a gaping hole down back. Ben Campo has been ok on the wing but not well enough to be playing seniors.
Darcy Hogg seems to do a good job every week.
Hogg is the definition of a good honest footballer, gives you effort and is team orientated. Conversely Im not sure what has happened to Okeefe, he looks slow, cumbersome and lacking in effort.

Yep that's how I understand it too Dodge...the trustee would have paid tax on the total income and then the Individual beneficiaries get the tax credit subject to their tax rate etc.
Personally, I'm not against schemes that level the playing field, if the low income earners were being taxed more than it would be an injustice, but making billionaires pay their fair share is OK by me if it means we all have to pay.
I'd give my extra $5 if it means Gina, Bruce, Anthony and the rest pay their billion$!
Good in theory but Gina, Bruce,Clive and co wont be paying any extra, they never do, middle Australia will pick up the tab and everyone will have to pay more for health insurance when the over 65's start dropping out of private insurance after losing the rebate and driving the costs up. Albo and crew are more interested in securing another term and bringing back ISIS brides to appease Tony Burkes mate so the migrant vote goes their way. New Zealand are going to have a lot of expat Aussies becoming Kiwi citizens on paper....
Unfortunately, not all the kids in the Magoos and some recruits actually aren't coming along as well as we might have hoped... nor delivering consistent strong efforts - Moir, Ben Campo, Reidy, Chesser, Irish boys...
Like to see Ben C get a run later on if it is possible. He's consistently doing a good job in the twos. Disposal is ok as long as he handballs...lol. His only issue, with the type of player he is, is that is has so many ahead of him. So might not be possible. The boys are polar opposite types from their old man in playing style.
Agree Scott is what we need and Ben is what we have plenty of, Lucas looked good in his first game but since hasnt fired a shot or has been injured and wingman are a dime a dozen in any draft or trade week. I have a soft spot for father/sons so I dont want them delisted but if their surname wasnt Camporeale you would be moving them on more than likely...
Id like to think this is a win for us but there is always: 1. "Dead" coach bounce. 2. Carlton doing Carlton things. Might even be no changes this week. Its must win.
We will win by 10 goals plus imo....the cries for Hird the savior will only get louder. Welsh and his mates will be cheering us on...
I thought Lord did well and is unlucky to be out of the seniors imo, Ben Campos problem is his use of the footy and the depth in the seniors with regards his position. Not sure who is tutoring Ben but he needs someone like Greg Williams to put a bit of polish into his game and have the confidence to take his time a bit more, always looks rushed when taking his kicks and sprays them. Interesting seeing Bowes and Worpel in the twos for Geelong, thought the former was very good and surprised he isnt in the seniors, didnt see much of Worpel... re: Riley.....I was happy with his game vs Stanley and he only needs opportunities to learn the game more quickly at the higher level.
Speaking of Williams...he had about 500 more handballs than he did kicks over his career. He averaged 12.5 kicks to 14.5 handballs Ben C does similar...he's averaging around 11 kicks to 15 handballs. Disposal accuracy is less of an issue when he's handballing as opposed to kicking. He may be more of a weapon developing that area further in the short term.
We need to see him at senior level soon and the best opportunities are in the coming weeks. Otherwise there may not be a 2027 for him.
Williams handballs were like kicks and he also kicked big moment goals. Ben has one string to his bow only and that's being a good extractor. Maybe he can add being a tagger to his game if he can't impact offensively, I just think being an extractor only is a throwback to the past. Libba is about the only player I can think of who still plays that way...Tom Mitchell was probably the other until the speed of the game caught up with him..
