Why, you disagree with Betts being a dud or playing better in the second half?

Well someone around here is LOL.

I think it was more the assertion that the crows just smashed them in the second half. Which wasn't true.


So you could argue that Eddie (along with many other more important players on the night) stepped up in the second half rather than front runnjng

Be interested if you can name a small forward/forward pocket who plays well when the side is struggling. Toughest position on the ground when the team is playing poorly

Chad Wingard, Robbie Gray, Cyril Rioli say hello

well all of them have been in teams that have been flying, so its hardly a fair comparison.

not saying betts is as good as those blokes but put him in hawthorn or port's team and he would do much better.

No he wouldn't. He doesn't work hard enough.

I agree with that part, have said so myself on here.

But Harvey, Johnson, giansiracusa and ablett are the only small people currently playing the game to have kicked more goals in their career than betts. It's not a bad record at all.

Either he would work harder under KH or he would be gone .. Maybe that highlights some philosophical differences between the clubs

Worst call of all time . Works hard but in a developing forward structure
Deadset pot shot for a good small forward. Not an absolute gun. Wingard appears a better player but you don't get 300+ goals as a small fwd if u don't work hard

Game and season over.

1st option Sloane and you win, cost your mob the season

mmmm perspective

To everyone who thinks Sanderson is an average coach, spot on - I'd go further & say when Dean Bailey died, so too did any coaching credibility in their panel.
They not only have a very average coaching panel, but I think a pretty average list as well.
Good luck next week against Gold Coast - you'll need it...

Maybe if he'd worked as hard as some others he'd have 500 goals?

I have trouble singing the praises of anyone who wont put their head over the ball.

Go into the port thread. You have enough going well for your club without having to bring others done

Serious question... Not stirring sh*t...

I know walker is only 2 games in but has been very average.
Does he deserve the hype he gets?
