Meat tray:
IN: O'Connor, Cameron, Evans, Henderson, Smith and Simpson
OUT: Narkle (omit), Rohan (hip), Close (managed), Kreuger (omit), Tuohy (hamstring) and Holmes (omit)
Tried like for like as close as possible.
Need Atkins and Miers back in R23 for a run before finals.
Agree we must win this...
Alright, before any games get under way, I'll have a crack.
B: O'Connor, Blicavs, Henry
HB: Stewart, Taylor, Tuohy
C: Steven, Dangerfield, C. Guthrie
HF: Atkins, Jenkins, Dahlhaus
F: Miers, Hawkins, Rohan
R: Stanley, Duncan, Parfitt
Int: Ratugolea, Selwood, Ablett, Clark
Emg: Kolodjashnij...
Smith and Buzza to GC for their pick 78 or 90. Both out of contract. Will be lucky to even get pick 78 for them both.
Menegola and one of our picks to Freo if we're trying to get Sean Darcy.
Trade Parsons this year for a third or fourth round pick while he's got the currency of a one year...
I don’t post on here very much, but I need to rant. I haven’t missed watching a Cats game at KP or on TV since I became a member in 2003, and will always be a passionate supporter, but I really couldn’t care less if I watched the West Coast game next week or not.
2012, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017...
I'd like to see a switch between Guthrie and Atkins. While Atkins has been solid this year, he hasn't kicked enough goals to classify him as a small forward, and hasn't played enough minutes in the middle to call him a midfielder.
I'd love to see Atkins start in the middle and tag a Crouch...
I agree with you on almost every point. Need S. Selwood to go to Kennedy though. Blicavs has to tag another mid as well. Just not sure which one! Buzza to do the relief rucking.
How I want the team to line up:
IN: Buzza, Menzel, Lang and Cockatoo
OUT: Kolodjashnij (calf), C. Guthrie (calf)...
I have the same backline. Couldn't fit Kolodjashnij though, as much as I'd like to. He needs to kick Lonergan or Mackie out at some stage during this year, and I think he will.
B: Enright, Lonergan, Henderson
HB: Mackie, Taylor, Guthrie
C: Duncan, Caddy, Bartel
HF: Gregson, Vardy, Motlop
F: J...
Potential roast:
3 year contract for GHS - then club didn't want to play him this year when fit and able.
2 year contract for Mackie - a 31+ year old. Thought we just did one year contracts for 30+s like most other clubs.
Recruiting Clark.
Kicked out Johnno.
Doesn't buy a real ruckman this...
I hear you. He has grown even more this year playing on-ball. But I wouldn't mind seeing Guthrie follow Enright's career path. Play midfield early days, but then move to the half-back line and become an absolute star of the competition. Guthrie now has the experience to go back to the backline...
Trial Rivers at CHF today? His last 12 games for Melbourne in 2012, he played forward at times and kicked 13 goals.
Walker kicked a bag against the wooden spooners last week and did nothing last night. Vardy is still weeks away from possibly resuming, same with Clark. Last night it was Hawkins...
Don't like it. A back pocket for a half forward. If we play Cockatoo down back, that's fine, as that's where he's been playing VFL the past two months. But I wouldn't say Dempsey kicking a bag on him last week was form enough. I still think we need Bews for this game.
From memory, there was a long pause for our pick 36 at the 2013 draft. We drafted Jansen with that pick, but Sydney took Nankervis with pick 35. I just had a feeling we were ready to take Nankervis there before the Swans pounced and made us re-think.
I don't see Simpson being retained for next...
I would like to see McIntosh back for this game. Goldstein will be too good for Stanley. And McIntosh. But at least Tosh has the experience and sounds like he's put in 4 very solid games at VFL level. If he doesn't get a game this weekend, they've put a line through his name and will just be...
I will be confused if we take Wright next Thursday. We’ve just gone and got Clark AND Stanley. Getting Stanley, after Clark, was confusing enough. We will have 5 key forward/ruckman-type players if so: Clark, Stanley, Vardy, Walker, and Wright. Far too many. I can already see one of Vardy...
Lake will retire at the end of this year + Lonergan will retire at the end of next year = Frawley to Hawthorn.
Rivers will play on next year too, and Blitz may continue down back. As others have said earlier, timing isn't right.
Move on to the FA targets for the end of next year. Are there any...
Hamling for Freo's Tanner Smith (KPD). It's Hamling's third year at Geelong and is yet to play a game. From what I've seen in the twos, seems that he'd be more of a third tall defender in the AFL. I reckon we've got that position covered for the next 2-3 years (Rivers this year and next year...
Exactly. If you really look at the ages of our players in our best 22 this year, and next year, you see there are many players in the 28+ range and a lot of potential stars in the 19-23 range. I'm just listing the ages of our players for 2014 to see where we are right now, and what 2015 and...
Good to hear. I popped mine out two days ago. I got it back in myself about 5-10 mins later. Just waiting for the swelling to go down a bit before I get an x-ray.
I did my other knee 7 years earlier playing tennis and it was out for 3 hours. I think it depends how long the knee is out for as to...
