Look forward to seeing Kanta in CD.
Bloke does not do enough in Midfield to justify being put there

I ain't seeing Steele thereOriginally Posted by WolfMan
Players L to R Neville Kanta Celvski Griff Kew Carney Walsh Bk Jeronimo Flores the last one I am uncertain of from that angle but it ain't Jonny amnd looks more like Cooper or Lundy
I love this quote:
Well no shit Stibbins. And as for the session being at Aleague intensity, all the ****ing sessions should be! You only train for 8 hours a week! Every session should be at 100%!Kew is obviously more suited to a central role.
Middleby Gone
Lawrie Out
But was the A League level intensity the Jets level of low intensity behind the pace of play effort or at the teams above them on the ladder who actually have an idea what they are doing ??
I think it's Gallaway.
People have been calling for Kanta as a CB and this week could be his chance!

Do you hate Pepper as well, Jeterpool?
Definitely not! I want Pepper in the team and want to know why he's been left out! That formation was based on the players MFKS picked out from the photo in the Herald and I was putting two-and two together.

Geez mate, we all know you are the NERDY NERD stat guy. No need to rub it in to us simpletons.
What was the answer by the way?
(Asking for a friend).
Love that lineup. Pepper or welsh either way I'm happy with. I feel for monty but we need griff and Flores in the middle there somewhere. That lineup also shows a reasonable amount more pace to it.
5.

That needs to replace "Senior Member" in my profile.
What happened to the ratings based on posts in Foz 1.0?

I agree that success can come on a budget and the big spenders don't always finish on top.Well said Plague and you saved me a lot of the hassle and I apoligise for the shower you had to have. Hope the water wasn't cold!!!.
Roarcelona GF win no 1 achieved what they did Miracle of Brisbane undefeated streak etc done so under FFA Control. Don't recall them spending big to sign anyone. Matter of fact they signed a pile of no names from the state leagues and recruited wisely from overseas
Wankers the last 2 seasons have made the GF 2 years running spending nothing other than a small amount extra on Shinji to go with their second hand cast off squad whilst under FFA Control.
Gypos have had teams consistently at the top of the ladder for the last 4-5 years and those ****s are ****ing skint
Adelaide are not loaded and have little extra money yet have a good side coming along who should go close to winning it and are well coached despite not spending up big
Perth have not spent big yet recruited wisely and have a good balance and look at how well they are placed with a coach who most people think is clueless
Heart on the other hand have spent up big in the off season and got what to show for it?? Little
Victree have constantly spent big yet haven't made a GF in 5 years and have rarely been close at seasons end
Smurfs have spent even more and haven't been a serious threat for 5 years also and have spent most of that time scraping into the 6 at our expense. Even with 2 million a season on a Marquee the best they could do was 5th
Make no mistake about it money and having plenty can be useful in this league. It is definitely not the be all and end all and you can achieve great things in spite of it.
Most of our problems at the Jets can actually be fixed without money and anyone thinking otherwise is in more denial than the club admin.
Consider the Jets reputation then if you will. We have had 2 owners who have both been guilty of not paying staff on time and who have had issues with paying other facets of the business, i.e. ground rent etc. Both owners have had issues with the FFA and the club licence and both have/are going to lose the club due to finances. We have had how many managers in our time? 10? as many as the smurphs and they are a joke for it. How many players have we had through the joint? How many unsuccessful imports? how many support staff, physios etc? How many times has a Griffiths brother left for better offers elsewhere? Surely all these factors sway players in their decisions to play here or not...and most of them have come from money. I don't doubt that other clubs have finacial difficulties at times. I also don't doubt that a successful club can be built on a shoestring budget but when the club is at an almost cancerous point with the scars of the past what needs to be done to change this?
Will the saale of the club by Tinkler change things, maybe? Will the FFA taking over change things, maybe? Would Middleby losing his job change things, maybe? Would a clean out of staff do it, maybe? Would all these things change the club...definetly but long term what will make us the great club we all want?
On a side note I saw a little of Mark Viduka's interview on the Sam, Santo and Ed show last night and he said something about the state of Australian football that I agree with. Clubs don't develope the quality of players now that they did in the past...I think it's down to the lack of reserve team football. You have 23 man squads and youth league...the gap and lack of game times for those not in the first team doesn't help in player development. young guys not playing against older guys makes the jump up to great for some of them....Just my opinion.
Ahhh, Celeski it would be. I saw some ink and a scruffy beard - 2+2 = 5. My bad
I take it the standards ain't that high in regional Australia then??NEWCASTLE Herald writer Robert Dillon has been recognised as one of the leading investigative sports journalists in the country.
Dillon, pictured, won the best sports journalism award in rural, regional or suburban media at the Australian Sports Commission Media Awards in Sydney on Wednesday night.
His winning entry included in-depth reporting on former billionaire Nathan Tinkler’s demise as the owner of the Newcastle Knights.
Dillon’s forthright and fearless work has also earned him gongs this year from the Kennedy Awards for Excellence in NSW Journalism and the NSW Regional Media Awards.
He has been named as a dual finalist in the Walkley Awards, to be announced on December 4.
The Wingham chronicle is great.
Manning river times not so much.
i've been saying for years, dillon is good
at what he does. Journalists get a raw deal, stereotyped due to the majority of them being twats and the rest working for murdoch.
Go jetties
Muckrapists m8
OK
Is he your step dad?
