Not sure I agree not all half backs are fast.... break lines with speed and equally with a kick

On noticeably slow player to win flags…
Just this year: Lipinski and Pendlebury.
Also…this would mean Sheezel can’t win a flag.

Angus Brayshaw has a flag and he's treacle slow.
Pendlebury's a fair rebuttal. One in a million player though. Bonner doesn't have that evasiveness. Sheezel can move well enough to the point that his slowness doesn't stick out. Likewise with Lipinski
He certainly set a trend at the Hawks. Lightning struck twice with Hughes, Jeans, Barassi, Parkin, Malthouse, Matthews. Hopefully Clarko joins them, but that doesn't mean some of his decisions shouldn't be questioned and debated

Don’t care who we bring in as long as McDonald is not in the AFL side as his no longer a walk up start he has gone down in the rankings to the 25th to 30th player on the list.
Start him in the VFL make him stay there until his form becomes too good then recall him to the AFL as a angry player with the attitude that will make him hungry to stay in the AFL.
He has been protected by the coaches in the past and his form has declined and his attitude was of a player I can’t be dropped as I’m the captain.
Clarkson needs to put all players on notice the days being
are over if we want the NMFC to be successful we need to get ruthless it’s been nearly 25 years since have won a flag and the supporters want success.

I'm content to put my faith on him and back that he knows more than me.

I don’t buy it that he had this attitude. He was just down on confidence and didn’t regain it.
Will Bonner be there for our next flag or depth for now? Easily the latter.

Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if he cared more about his event business more than footy atm. I can see him finishing out the last 2 years of his contract then gone.Don’t care who we bring in as long as McDonald is not in the AFL side as his no longer a walk up start he has gone down in the rankings to the 25th to 30th player on the list.

That's right. Our entrant in the competition that famously gets participated in by players who want to grab their friends and family some extra tickets

If we get a DFA id want it to be a KPP
That's fair. I just don't think a team trying to build towards something has any use for players like him. Bergman, Fisher, Goater, McDonald (yes I know, but his best is much better than what he showed this year), Sheezel, and maybe Stephens or Scott should be able to handle his role. A bottom team picking him up is stagnating, plain and simple. It was the same with Tucker, but that was ok because the obvious jewel of that deal was Logue, not Tucker
He may know more about footy than you (and me) but we are here on big footy, amongst the elite brians of the game.

You are picking up what I was putting down.
Bonner is a good kick. Our development has been shoddy for the last half a decade. It could be as simple as filling the lost spot on our list with a mature body that atleast sets a good example skill wise on the track and if needed on the field.

My old boss was a close friend of a Melbourne committee man when Jacko was playing there. This guy was telling us about a road trip he did with Jacko to some place up north for a sportsman's night. He was apparently petrified of the drive but it turned out Jacko was pretty sensible and good company in the car. However, when they stopped for petrol the Jacko show was in full flight for the other customers and the servo staff.
