These 2 roosters are new posters and adding a bit of bite to the site.
Plugger has thrown up a couple of good discussion topics and stirred up the passions in a few others in their feelings for particular players.
Scurrilous seems to be a bit cheeky and enjoys the odd cryptic comment.
Doesn't matter even if you think these 2 know "jack" about footy,
and are a bit tough on players, they add some more value to the site and so far have not been personal - I think.
More the merrier I say, and the more opportunity to throw up thoughts, ideas and opinions. I think I am now addicted after about 200 lifetime posts.
I'm glad to read that Seymour is getting fit, and I sure hope he can make it back into the seniors. However, he's not a forwards' toenail. His best footy is played down back.
3 goals (the winners apparently) = a forwards toenail? Hello!
I'd go with that - which of the regular forwards would you drop in favour of Seymour ?? Hall, M O'L, Schneiderman, Davis, random-tall-dude-playing-ruckman-rotation ??
As a forward, I wouldn't rate Seymour as the toenail of any of those guys at the moment. You could put him in that struggling-half-back-playing-forward slot that Nicks was occupying, but I really think we need an extra functioning backman, be it Nicks, Seymour or Warfe. The forward line is cooking on gas without him.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.

Surely the point is that Seymour is now a genuine utility, rather than the perennial back pocket that we've always labelled him.
Seymour wouldn't replace any of the players you mention . . . he would be an invaluable addition to them.
When Seymour, Nicks and Fixter (and Doyle eventually) are ready to come back, it will obviously be youngsters like Powell and Meiklejohn who make way for them, not our best senior players.
