I agree, Baloo is solid..

Is there any other mode?

I have enough frustrations at work, why anyone would come to a RFC site to contanstly argue with all and sundry is beyond me!

Delighted to see you follow all my posts 'contanstly.' Looking forward to your in-depth analysis of same then. Hoping it's not beyond you (but have real doubts).

Why is Matt White even being mentioned?!?

So irrelevant. ::)

We've got so many better kids to talk about!

For you, it started back here. Much is irrelevant when you fail to comprehend a reflective comment from the outset. Only now matters.

Baloo's posts are usually concise so no.

Disappointing to see Leon in full-on rage mode again.

So you identify someone raising points, backed by evidence, as evidence of anger - 'full-on rage mode' ? :spin

Words just fail me ... all I can think of is ... vacuous. Possibly just restrict yourself to reading posts of only one sentence; might save you from getting frightened.

Yeah, I want to play striker for Man United but that still hasn't quite happened for me yet.

And clearly that's not all that hasn't quite happened for you yet.
 
After all that; I will practise KISS principle and keep it simple. It is no use attempting any analysis of recent history in list management or questionable strategic decisions. Must just live in the here and now.

Have been a strong supporter of Dan Butler, including when some called him useless and a waste of space, for him to be cut end of 2016.

Ballarat boy and St.Pats boy (like Dan Rioli too in the latter). Going great; has an appetite for the contest and taking the game on.

I too enjoy reading Baloo's material.

There are others who seem angry most of the time and just not worth engaging.

Oops! I was rude and missed replying to this one. You never need to worry who you are engaged with, or be scared of angry people. You have your Dad. That's sweet.

As another poster has stated too, and I absolutely agree, Baloo's 'material' is solid. Very, very solid.

Dear Leon,

Please stop, enough. Really. Seriously.

Cheers.

I have, Ripple, as you see when I returned to praising Dan Butler. I have been a hopeful fan from the outset. I only replied to those who responded to me, I regard it as being polite. That's it. I never want to see Matty White as a topic here again. It's just not worth discussing. Note Yandb!

Interesting name, Ripplestick, but I won't even speculate.

I'd say whatever I posted would be wasted upon you, yes. My comments were in support of Yandb's point re the failure to keep MW in lieu of having enough pacy players in the INTERVENING YEARS until now. As I have stated, it's historic now.

You failed to understand this in responding to him and to my posts since. Never mind, it's just beyond you. Hence you resort to insults.

:hihi

Thank you Leon for your insightful and thoughtful response much appreciated.

Does Leysy wish to revise this post.

Bloody oath Y&B. His growth from the middle of last year has been astonishing.

Love him now, love his ability to stay balanced despite running at electric speed - Dare leysy say Yarran like.

Has a heap of development left as well once he gets stronger.
 
The funny thing is everyone seems to calmly ignore him like they would a child throwing a tantrum in a supermarket. Just look away and be glad you're not the parent.
 
Its only a small thing, but one thing I love about Dan, apart from the obvious, is that he never shows when he's fatigued. After a big effort looks exactly like he did before it, chest out, head up. No hands on knees sucking in the big ones, no head wobble running to the bench or back to posi, no 'look at me I just put in'. Good thousand-yard stare along with it too.

Best to just loosen the reins and let him tire himself out.

Yeah, I thought he was cooked as well. Now looks like he is right at home.

And is a weapon. Teams can't give him space behind them.

I noticed WCE had a set play when Hurn kicked out. Long and straight down the middle, with a couple ready to run onto anything that spilled back. We were equal to it on Saturday.

With the likes of our 2 x Dans, this is worth a try every now and then, given the extent of the presses these days.

Yep, keeping our speed up front has to be non negotiable.

A real point of difference we need to continue exploiting.
 
I loved how he was one of the first guys in to wrestle hurt when cannoned into George. ... hurt is a big lad. He was right in there. ... loved seeing that from a kid in 3rd game...
