Please show me where I have said he isn’t? I actually said he’s been a heck of a player Talk about 1+1=3 As usual you are pushing a hateful agenda, playing the man and not dealing in facts. Same people same comments

Not what I said.

Not having a crack at Haynes but he is 33 and past his best. People seem to think he is still a top line player. I also don't agree with "Modern CHB" type. It's total defence now and different roles. You have a combination of talls, mobile talls and runners He was brought in as cheap depth...

I really hope a Young, Durdin, Silvagni or Phillips step up and can take the major Key forward every week. Release Weitering to intercept/third man up and use his great kicking and McGovern as well as third tall defender where he can do the same. These three surrounded by runners like Saad...

Disagree

He's 33. How long and often to you expect him to be at his best?

He's 33 early this year and last year he played 9 VFL games. He wasn't a first choice best 22 At his best he was a heck of player and I can see him playing a role at times. The Newman injury opens up another spot but I would be disappointed if he plays most weeks as we have Weitering McGovern...

I think in most cases we will go with three taller players. Weitering Young McGovern Silvagni Haynes Durdin/Phillips are the choices so competition is good.

Jack playing KPD in Lemmey looks good

Locking down on players like Greene is something we will really miss from Newman and why I was hoping Cincotta was fit

At this stage I certainly wouldn’t be saying he couldn’t. Makes no sense to me

Couldn't disagree more. I think he could be a lot better

Don't forget Jack. If what he is producing as a KPD in only last week is an example many people are going to be very surprised and I think he may affect how we pick our SSPs. Saw Jack standing next to Weitering and there was no real difference in size. Jack was probably slightly leaner but that...

I watched some replays of SA Under 18s and Ben was as effective as Sid Draper in the middle. They were a good combination. Sid is just more dynamic and stands out but Ben was very good

100% and its what we need. A couple of these players that will step up and make a difference to what we have Having Ollie Boyd Saad Wilson Lucas Cowan Docherty (Carroll and/or White) as running defender options is really exciting and IMO something we really need I thought we may have used...

Are we short or is because people don't rate them? We have Weitering (Star) Young (I don't really rate) but is a genuine KPD Minimum one of Phillips or Durdin who are both big bodies Silvagni McGovern and Haynes who can play taller as can Kemp if needed Not to mention Lemmey who has played KPD...

“Docherty slow and not coping with pressure down back” When was this? 😳

So what you’re saying is there are some kids that haven’t played yet but there are some that have, yet we shouldn’t play kids because they need grounding yet some don’t and then we shouldn’t pick kids because we are on win mode even if they are good enough yet people are wanting some kids to...

100%. Some kids need time and some are just ready Never pigeon hole anyone because of age. It’s naive. Did Sam Walsh need time? Watch how many first year kids debut in the first couple of rounds this year amongst all AFL clubs. Names like Lord Smith Ollie Wilson O’Keefe Moir are ready to go...

I hope we go with three. Last year showed we need as many fit bodies as possible. I see it as between 1 of Durdin or Phillips Maybe 1 of McMahon or DGB 1 or 2 of Carroll Evans and/or White

Weitering Boyd Cowan Saad McGovern are all good users. Ollies ball use has improved a lot and Wilson is also a smart ball user as well and Haynes is no slouch. IMO we need more run from defence

I’d prefer him across HB but he’s a star whenever he plays. He’s a bit of point of difference in midfield but with Elijah Lord & Smith coming on he may be able to go back May rest on how Ollie Wilson Boyd Saad L.Campo Cincotta step up as defenders? I reckon Cincotta would be a great Newman...

Docherty is flying. Hasn’t missed a beat. I think people forget how good he really is. He is a genuine star and will add so much to our side Been training with mids and wing so will be interesting to see if that changes

When Voss turned up he needed to fix defence and discipline/professional standards. I believe he has done a great job in these areas Key now if to find that balance between attack and defence. I also believe he needs to trust a few more players on different roles The move of Ollie to defence...

IMO we have the talent. I have questions over how we use it and how we don’t trust others on our list

Newman is a loss but I don’t buy the experience angle. When a defence has Weitering McGovern Saad Haynes Silvagni Docherty as options then experience is not a concern for me

The positive is Newman injury has happened before SSPs need to be named. It creates opportunity for Wilson Cowan Silvagni maybe L.Campo they may not have had. I’m also one for Docherty in defence Major issue last year was running out of options and depth and no chance to replace them. When...

Amen to that

Matt. He was with us last year

If we can’t make a good defence with Weitering McGovern Haynes Silvagni Docherty Cowan Boyd Saad Ollie Young L.Campo Wilson Cincotta and possibly Durdin Phillips and/or Carroll as options we have bigger problems than I thought And that’s without moving Williams Lemmey Monahan Kemp or even...
