Pot, kettle, black?
I found 5 errors of grammar in that one line of text. Pretty impressive.
After the epic draw comes the decisive knockout!
Collingwood rules the world again and Mick Malthouse fulfils his destiny with the twenty ten premiership and can you hear the people sing!

+1

Has alright of tools to be a really good footballer. I can't decide whether he is just raw or lacks footy smarts though - could be a combination of both.

Love how bullocking he is though, and I love it when he absolutely hoofs it. Can really break open the play with a boot like that

Watch your step from now on.

And watch your step. we wouldn't won't you step on your knuckles.

Agree. The kid has just slotted in like a 100 gamer.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

^ Scharenberg actually coming in to play and develop, assuming his two possible weak spots have been fixed, is really gaining a first round draft pick next year. That is seriously good news.

An on topic, Maynard is growing every week, and he's 20. He looked pretty damaging coming off hard back as a runner against the Suns, and that left boot goes a long way.

Maynard to Full Forward?

Post by Rick »

I was wondering today how Brayden Maynard would go playing at full forward. In no way am I putting him in the same class as Dustin Martin, but he does have some similar qualities. There's no doubt the kid gives it his all, yet let's face it he gets caught out playing in the backline.

Is there anyone else on the list who could switch roles?

I had wondered about him playing forward, but I do not think he is particularly strong overhead, which you need as a forward. I can't recall him taking a contested mark. Nice kick, though, and has a few goals to his name off the HBF.

Ok. Wouldn't you like Bucks to mix things up when things aren't working? After Griffiths went down Thursday, I thought here's a chance to swing Reid forward. But no, nothing changed. Does it ever?

Let's put Blair at Full Back, Sidey in a back pocket and Lynden Dunn on the ball.

PS: Maynard lacks footy IQ
I love the Pies, hate Carlscum

Maynard as a FF? Next you will be saying we should make Blair the captain / coach.

Gold - there is mixing it up and then there is throwing the magnets in the air and seeing where they land on the white board.

I'm not sure if I am ready for that yet.
