No. If the topic warrants negative replies so be it.

Yes, you are consistently negative across all topics

Excuse me!! I go to every game in Melbourne. Who do you think you are to tell me that I'm not watching games. I've read plenty from you on here that suggests that you don't watch games, or just watch on TV as you don't seem to see any of the off the ball work that so many players do but whatever.

Junior has taken a massive step forward this year, he was certainly playing better than he ever has before. Wants to take the dangerous corridor kick (guess what, that can sometimes make his disposal look poor, I assume you were also 1 that bagged Shedda out for this before other players - and fans - caught up to his brilliance) and is now executing. Seems to be taking a lot more risks since Yze has come in hence the step up IMO. Dimma for all his qualities, pigeon holed players too easily and I reckon Junior was told to run and pressure and don't worry about the rest but with Yze he appears to have been told to get involved more, and take aggressive options.

What I like about Junior is he's not afraid to take that dangerous kick and if he misses, he doesn't let his head drop. I think it may have been the Swans game, in the 1st half he tried to make those kicks and missed several (I think his DE% was something like 20% in the 1st half), but he kept taking the aggressive option in the 2nd half and he started hitting those targets opening the whole ground up.

We aren't seeing the finished article at all, but for a guy who has played 35 games we shouldn't be expecting to, and if you are already writing him off, you obviously allowed that opinion, but don't try telling others (who do watch games live and in person) that they aren't seeing what you seem to think you see.

Oh boo hoo. Finished with the cryathon. Dont presume to think i don't see games live. There was a bit of tit for tat in my reply.
You may go to every game but you certainly don't see. You see what you want to see. But what ever.

I tell ya what you tell me exactly where he has improved and by how much.
I will show you most of his games this year for a 4th year small was not good enough.You have been sucked in by the name and you sure have a low bar set.

If you don't see the fumbles and poor kicks then your not watching close enough.

The Sydney game was by far his best game and is very much an outlier apart from one other.
There is way more to the game other than running around like a headless chook and chasing the backside of players who actually have the ball.

Anyway see what you want nothing anyone says or points out to you will make a difference.

For me one more year and he would want to SIGNIFICANTLY improve to keep his spot.

Fair enough.
You're entitled to your opinion, I just don't share it.
Isn't that what this site is all about, people expressing their thoughts. I find it interesting hearing others thoughts on the various topics.
Don't always agree with a lot of them, but ce la vie.

Exactly right.

Let's keep the c*ckfighiting off this thread. We're all on the same team and this aint BF.

Absolutely, the amount of arguing & *smile*-slinging in PRE over the past few weeks has been pretty sad to watch

No I think you aren't seeing. I've already said that Juniors issues have been fumbling and in particular his ball use in the past. This has significantly improved this year. If you can't see this, then maybe go back and watch some of the games earlier in the year, he takes on the aggressive options and has been hitting those targets more, but I suspect what you will do is just continue to constantly post negative biased statements so I'm going to disengage as frankly whats the point.

Using the M Rioli designed Dreamtime jumper in the last game of the season and when MJR is back just shows the class of the club.

And not funny.
Good natured humour and banter gives readers a lift.
Don’t take it all too seriously. There’s enough crap going on without finding angst on PRE.

Mozza might be busy designing Dream Time Guernseys for a while, might be only himself and Mansell as players with Avborigtinal heritage left on the list come seasons end.

Great that the club is wearing it for Maurice.

Apparently they were the only jumpers left after everything else burnt in a recent fire
