Can't wait to see him in action. The age restriction is really stupid IMO. If a player is good, it doesn't matter how old they are, they should be able to play.

On a different note, how do you guys feel about the score review system so far?
There was about 4 or 5 of them in the showdown and a few in the Suns/Cats game.
I find it quite annoying at times as they try to pick out every goal and always question themselves.

I say, if they think the ball hits the post and it isn't obvious, then just let it go!!

What if your team loses by 4 points, and it hit the post, so they should have won by 1? Can't imagine people would accept that, especially if it were a finals match

If the match is of importance and it's that close, by all means they should review it.
Though the system needs a lot of improvements.

If it's checked once, it should be checked all the time. It can't be a pick and choose type situation

Should have cameras on the goal posts imo just like how they did in the Vic v Dreamteam match in 08'

One thing I don't understand is why has it taken this long for an AFL club to snap up Callinan. He's a perfect small forward. Good pace, good vision, good snaps, accurate set shot.

Mumbles being gone and Sando coming in is a major part of this. This is what makes me hold on to hope with Port hopefully we can ditch Primus sooner rather than later and bring in an actual coach.

i dont think a proper coach will come in for 5 bucks and a chocolate milk

Buddy out for 3 weeks.

Playing him against GWS was just ridiculous after his hamstring twinge the week before. Clarko didn't need to risk him against them with key games against Collingwood & Essendon coming up after the Bulldogs this week. The reasoning for keeping momentum going by picking him is nonsense. We'd have beaten GWS easily without him and he'd come in stronger against the Bulldogs. If Buddy being out doesn't give the Bombers an extra lift on top of the usual rivalry then I don't know what will. Bugger!

No Bartel vs Geelong and no Buddy vs Hawthorn.

**Kiz** · 07-09-2012, 07:51 AM

mckernan out for 6

extremely talented player with next to no desire to put it together. unfortunately it means we probably cant rest jacobs, but at least jenkins will come in and be able to give him a hand. wouldn't mind seeing us rest thompson and rutten, cant have either of those two get injured in such a pointless game.
