Also Lachie Jones isn’t far off. He has traits that we hate others for their lack of, like lack of pace and aggression, I think give him two more years and he’s a lite version of Quaynor. Will rarely lose a 1on1 regardless of size and be a weapon moving forward. Was sceptical earlier this year...
I thought I would be way more disappointed than I was to be honest. Rarely will you be out and away the best home and away team like Collingwood are, so our best chance for a premiership are just being closely the best team on the day. Today gave me confidence that we have the talent to do so...
Agree, I think what’s most underrated about port is the variety of potential goalkickers. Houston and Burton have kicked 12 goals from the backline (for the most part), Rozee, Butters and JHF have kicked 27 between them. Add three key forwards pretty much averaging 2 goals a game and a couple of...
Listening to Cal Twomey on SEN, it sounds like minimal draft capital would go back to GCS. So it would essentially be Bowes + Pick 7, for us to take on the heavily back-ended two years of his deal.
Given we have the Dunkley space, surely they have to be looking at this. Even if we had to trade...
I think we'll all be pleasantly surprised with his output. Hard done by at North and has the work ethic and mental strength to make the most of his chance at Port.
Only 26 so could get some solid years in
No way the crows get rid of pick 4, they know they need as much young talent as possible. Look at the top 10 in their bnf this year.
Realistically Port have the more straightforward deal with a pick closer to the valuation of an uncontracted Dawson. Crows would have to wheel and deal some...
Listening to Kane Cornes talk on Dylan Buckley's podcast about how Ken's best trait is that he takes the time to talk to every player about why they're not in the 22 and the plan for them to get there gives me confidence we'd have a plan for Hayes.
I'm sure Sydney's management are in his ear...
Agree with the chatter that Dumont would be good for the list. Cheap contract, no guarantees of a spot and a 100+ games of AFL experience. Should be entering his prime.
Some on North board thought he'd be there next captain at one point, so it can't hurt to have a good character who works hard...
Pressure off the charts. Such a snowball after any goal created from pressure. Hopefully that shows the boys and they're up and about in two weeks time
He was literally ready to come to the crows last year before they pulled out last minute and wouldn't return his call. If port are interested, I'd bet he chooses us rather than the crows given the burnt bridge
Also, let's embrace that we've put 4 wins on the board. West coast and Richmond have 3 and Brisbane and Geelong only have 2. I'm more excited to grind out a season and finish top2 from being consistent.
This so much. Bloke is so talented, and has shown so much more in 40 games than most, just needs consistency and he could be so valuable. He's not the next tredrea, but he will be a key cog in our next premiership tilt and we should embrace how unique his skills are.
Love the idea to keep playing Drew. He's obviously at a good point with his body, is building slowly and needs the Alistair Clarkson treatment where fresh players get 12-15 games to prove themselves
Don't expect he'll ever be consistent 30+ but give me 22 touches and 7 tackles
We should be playing both with Marshall pushing up the ground to take advantage of his elite field kicking.
We always bang on about our inability to develop a key forward and both MG and Marshall have unique strengths that makes me believe both will work now. Having them with another 40-50...
Trent Dumont reportedly looking to come home to Port at the end of next season, would be a good transition from Rockliff. Fits the age profile were after and can do the job, without being a worldbeater
Mate saw the Port boys at the Cremorne last night and had Todd Marshall offering him $500 to do his uni assignment by Sunday. Said if he promised to kick 40+ goals next year it was a deal. Watch this space, breakout incoming.
