I have come to the conlusion that Leo knows nothing about football and is only pumping up the tyres of his mates.

hows your game plan going so far heater31? seems you know a fair bit about footy! fancy getting beating by the South team that didn't have 1 f*#king named player in their team besides torney and warren! your plan of playing all these so called bigger, stronger, quicker, fitter and better older guys is really paying dividends....just looked like the same old shit to me!
heater31 for coach!

As much as i respect what tommy car has achieved and being a local ep lad like myself i have no doubt his time is up......get rid of him and give some of our quality youngsters a go for f*#ksake!
Harry M needs some time in the twos to get a kick and some confidence back instead of getting a couple late kicks and getting bronx cheers because he had done nothing all game! that kick after the siren was pathetic and this guy played afl!
and Elstone is wasted up forward and whats the go with Hargraves? Sommerton, like Luke Harder, gets plenty of it but they let themselve down more often than not with their disposal. however as i have stated previoulsy i believe Harder should be getting a run in the a's.

junior reports are that the young ep juniors are progressing very well! Grove dominated in the 1st week kicking 8! jack nelligan continues to impress. jay shannon is another with a big future! keast and schreiber are starting to show signs of their talent and this will show through with time to adjust their fitness and speed to this much quicker competition.

and i thought the crowd would've given it to Jack a bit more.....i know i had a bit to say! :butthead: :finga:

So there should be 16 EP lads on the ground plus J Clayton and Achee.

I've said this before but AhChee never puts in a bad game. Great player, and is often moved from his specialist position to help wherever is needed.

I don't really care about a mob of Warfies mate but I see your calls for the mentioned KPPs were given KPPs in the end just in the u/19s instead. There is a big difference between country footy and League footy. Brant Chambers, Ian Perrie, Daniel Schell and others would eat those boys for breakfast.


to inject some youth mate I would advocate the inclusion of Tyson Wait into the league side seems to me that he is always named in the best in the reserves no wonder he went country halfway through last year FFS

Thewlis, Bennett, Smith, Baird, Prendergast and Handby go all right.

junior reports are that the young ep juniors are progressing very well!

These guys arent even playing reserves yet. Theyve got a long way to go before they are seniors ready.

I think we'll see the likes of Erskine, Watson, Clinch, Wait, Hall and Taylor push for selection over the next couple of weeks.

whats your problem westcoastpanther? what aren't i allowed to voice my opinion on this forum? whens the last time you watched a sanfl game, juniors included, in person? too busy running around in the magoos in country footy and don't like to see any of our young ep lads go good in adelaide by the sounds. what you think these players just stay the same as the last time you seen them play and not further improve and develop! least i see these lads play and my comments are from actually seeing them out there running around, what the hell would you know!!

Macca goes to every game, he would also know. I only have a problem with the crap you are writing, not you.

Just to also prove how little you know, at 33 I'm still playing A's, drongo!!

Someone in his family is quite sick, and he is with his family, as he was for a few weeks in preseason.

leo, i thought in the last half againest south he was great. got a bit of the ball and really nailed a couple of them, the commentators were very impressed. i may be biased cause he is a mate, this will be his last year.

this is all i said because he was disappointing in the first couple weeks, this just goes to show what hes capable of and he needs to be more consistant.
I still think Ahchee deserves the 3 votes, he won us the game.
Only got there at half time in the ressies and Harder played well again and is continuing to put his hand up for league selection. I was also impressed with Dolling. harry M showed glimpses but still needs to show more in my opinion before he gets a recall.
are you from back home djd? will tommy carr head back home next season?
