Doggies were clearly the better team from the 2nd half but those free-kicks early clearly were huge momentum swingers. Nothing went right for this match. Goal conversion, umpiring (f*** Weightman), the weather probably favoured them as it nullified the clearance game that was so crucial for us...
Does Coxy come back in next week?
With McGrath back, Caldwell/Langford close to returning and Durham playing so well on the wing I don't know if there's a slot for him. Might be the perfect sub for us with his height and ability to play anywhere?
Is 2MP the best kick in the AFL over 200cm? Really reliable field kicking and a beautiful set shot. Personally can't think of another bloke over 200cm I'd rather kicking the ball.
Don't think we can read anything from him playing forward in the VFL last week. It was needs-based with Rance, Brand, BZT playing key positions down back.
It's sad to say as I'm a fan of him but I think he requests a trade to Adelaide come to the end of the year. With the mental health issues...
Zach Reid will be our best draftee from the 2020 draft as a multiple AA CHB. Archie Perkins and Nik Cox never quite become anything more than solid players.
That was a rollercoaster of a game. Good fight by the boys but sadly umpiring and injuries killed us. To lose by 39 pts when in front with 10 minutes to go is disappointing.
I'm worried for our midfield for the rest of the season if McGrath is serious, we have no depth left.
My new wishlist for this offseason. Not often you get the chance to do a major reset on your list. I hope we can come away with a young key position players at either ends of the ground and a young big inside midfielder
TRADES:
Jye Caldwell
I think looking at the Jack Steele deal gives a...
Worried about how similar Caldwell is to what we already have but we do need to get good talent into the club. What's he worth? That's the big worry for me. Late first round? Is there a chance we have put the 500k in front of him to walk him to the PSD if a deal cant be done with GWS in Jack...
Agree with you and everybody else about the Saad pick won't likely get us anything better than Saad. If he wants to be at Essendon then I hope he stays, he's been one of the very few players you know what we will get from him every week.
First poster here. Thought I'd give my thoughts on what we should do this offseason. I think a miny rebuild needs to happen over the next couple of years to rebuild the holes in the list and build depth.
Out of contract players:
B.Ham (1 year) don’t really rate him but deserves one more year...
