Daicos will win a brownlow at some point.
32 with 27 contested and 16 clearances. Both career high's.
Put the midfield sans Pendles, Mitchell and JDG on his back.

I can't remember a post I disagreed with more.
But I respect you mate - no offence. I expect he'll challenge for 'best player of all time' status at some point. He's 7-8 years from his prime haha. He's gonna terrorise the competition.

For reference the fewest wins v VFL clubs we have is Hawthorn with 94.

Mitchell is cooked, Pendles is 36 and DeGoey is cream but can go missing. Will have to lure a midfielder in the offseason.
And 100% he will win a Brownlow, was unlucky to not win last year

Nothing wrong with disagreeing no offence taken, I just find him incredibly overhyped he is a good player I just don’t find him to match that hype imoI can't remember a post I disagreed with more.

Speaking of winning a Brownlow - Bont? He’s so damn good!
Deserves one.

There was probably a dozen spuds out there across the two teams. Everyone used to say footy is different to basketball as a single player over a team of 22 can't make that much difference, but footy has devolved a lot, Daicos for the Pies and Bont for the Dogs just completely different stratospheres to the rest.
I don't think our list is that bad but boy do we need a player like that to compete now. Where are all the father sons from the 2007 team dammit.

36... And still contributing at a higher level than any mid we have bar Dangerfield or Holmes. But we're digressing from the point

It’s his last year. They will have to build a new midfield around Daicos.
And not everything is about comparing to Geelong.

Bulldogs are really underachievers with that list and talent- they should be top 4
Fabulous player but his game has a couple of underwhelming aspects- really milks the frees. Loved by the umps so can get away with plenty. Grabs the ball and drops it when he gets tackled- free kick Nick etc. Of course if I were a pies fan, I wouldn’t be booing him either.
They might be in a few weeks.

They can trouble Swans, Blues, GWS, Demons with that forward strength and MF. Rucks are not a weakness either.
My preseason pick- Lions- just a shell of their potency from 23.

Fabulous is correct. Clever enough to get frees- why not if in the rules. Selwood had his own method which we didn't mind.

I'm happy that you lot think we are still in that ilk.
