There is only one fool in this conversation and it isn't me. Maybe try and post something positive for once. You joined the site a little over a week ago and everything that you post is negative. |

Football cubs are full of integrity and honesty.
We only have to look at our injury list to see evidence of integrity and honesty.

Finally some sense.. come on Moretrealore give us an educated answer on why this is not correct! |
Must be Troll week, another cheeky Newbie here for five minutes throwing is weight around. Trolls popping up all over the shop.

yes me.
no buzz, no flair, just a dour display.
Seems to another "handy player" of which we are full of.
But even that description may be gilding the Lily.
Early days yet so I can't make a call on that one.
But not looking that good

Aish has been very disappointing.
We gave up 2 x 2nd rounders for him.
The pick total we gave up for him is equal to a Top 10 pick.
I think Hine reached for Aish because Scharenberg and Freeman have been busts in that draft. |

There was one particularly awful passage of what should have been contested footy in which Aish and Broomhead were our two guys at the ball on the outer wing/half-forward - they did their best, in their own way, but they were monstered off the footy and Richmond got a goal. I was very annoyed by what I saw. I guess they were both trying as hard as they could but they are very slight and there was no physicality at all to their play. |

Aish has been a major disappointment outside a couple of performances IMO.
I thought we were getting some outside silk but he struggles to find open space for mine and looks like he feels more at home trying to win a contested ball which with his slight stature is not what we need.
I know Broomhead has had shoulder issues which makes it difficult but both players have been in the system for a few preseasons now yet they're both extremely skinny still.
So far only his contested marking seems an elite trait for Aish.

Not the first time he has been on here and it won't be the last.
No one is a troll here.
I just hope he sticks around for good this time.
He will get it worse than me.
Not sure why he keeps popping in and out.

| Aish just has a laconic style about him as skillful players often do. He will polish a good side but be found out in a poor one atm. I reckon he deserves a free run this year to see where he is at. |

I think Aish is coming along nicely. He's not a Bontempelli but he's a quality player still learning what it takes at this level. Needs to bulk up a bit, which is how I read the incident P4S mentioned.

If you can remember 1958, you're probably in need of a nap regardless.
I agree that Buckley was pretty flat. I wonder if he sees the end coming. The wastefulness and inability to score despite heavy possession would make any coach despair.
