    There is usually an extra tall on the bench and / or one of the talls forward or back are generally injured at any point in time ... they will both play big roles if they stay fit
  2. There is talk of more leadership being shared with the younger guys - love the idea. JVR spoke impressively the other day and l could see him being one of the ones that are give more opportunity to lead. Who else is in our developing leaders group?

    Tmac has shown he can play key back or forward. The issue is his body, Playing back allows you a bit more time to change directions, cut off angles and hopefully avoid injury.
  4. He said similar when l asked him, that he would be playing if there was 4 points on the line
  5. Deestar l feel like your using my pretty innocent post to grandstand about the behaviour of this forum more boardly. lts not my go l dont play the man or woman for kicks like some do. My point is that players rarely complain to supporters, a view that was confirmed by GW herself. We all know however many do have issues with the club at any point in time, this is at all clubs local or otherwise. The post wasn't meant to reflect on GW, Katrina or others simply my view that players are cagey about their issue. Tracc hasnt done a media interview this season that l can recall which is curious at best. We all know he would be asked about his commitment to mfc now and into the future. Whether he stays or goes l am confident he is committed while here. There is a heap of value in the training reports.we get and l don't need to over state the obvious
  6. Speaking of what Tmac wears, many won't know that he has what l would call rubberised kicking laces to help with his kicking efficiency. Hes also known to trial afl approved clear rubber grib pads over the laces of his boots for the same reason. Others are doing similar
  7. Happy to withdraw the word random. My point however is that players are guarded and usually give a rose coloured view of things. When l have asked players how they are going at training, not once has a player said they are upset with the diection of the club or have issues with the coach staff or fitness staff. l also dont recall reports on this forum from others that have spoken to players saying similar things. Hence, l would love to here from Tracc on the record. He doesnt have to particularly if he doesn't want to stay, but it would be great to hear. My 12 year old son is still annoyed with him and Clayton wanting to leave and others haven't forgotten either
  8. The concerns about his commitment are next level, its not the same as all players as you suggest. Not all players leak to jornos their desire to leave and give detailed reasons about why.

    I like the fact we are taking our time. If there is no high quality candidate then we keep waiting until there is.
  10. From what the media and you and others are saying is sounds positive ... when l have been to training, to me anyway, late last year he seemed in his shell a bit ... you can interpret that in different ways ... l don't put a heap of value on what players say to random supporters tbh ... l want him in the media saying he is committed to the club and has moved on so he is on the record ... maybe not now but when he is ready ... l will hold doubts about his long term commitement until he does
  11. l want to hear from Tracc directly before l put this all to bed
  12. We all know that but they are mids and need to be doing ok still ... maybe not 1st but certainly not in the last 3rd amongst the talls and newbies
  13. Anyone know where clayton and christian came in the time trail? You can't hide your fitness in those

    It's Crown land, MRC don't control it and would have known about this for some time. If they had a major say this would have been stopped some time ago imo. Feasability is done. Is Kanga trying to extract some benefit to appease the MRC so as to gain its support l wonder? Maybe the dog walkers can use the track given its rarely used if he is so concerned ... not
  15. Luke Jackson the day after draft night with his new mfc jumper on having a break from talking to media at docklands said to me he has been to melb with sports rep sides many times and loved it and he knew he would likely leave WA anyway and was very happy
