Best result: keeping our future picks. Hoff seems a decent pick though

I am with you. Doesn’t seem a good fit at all

I was watching the game and thinking the same about the forwards. Whilst McDonald looks like a future player, he was struck with injury and had no impact but Amarty and McLean are very average. If the medium and smalls don’t then fire they are cooked which is exactly what happened. Too many...

Might have hurt last week but absolutely rapped for you blokes today. Well played!

Interested to know who you think may be available that will help?

Cadman building nicely! Looked like he was going to take the game away early

You’re telling me we didn’t have a full 30+ list!! Bring on the kids! Bruhn, Dempsey, Holmes, Neile, Humphries etc.

O.Henry had some good signs but feel he is playing a little selfish. He also leaps so early to try and take the mark so I think he needs to learn how to use his body little better..

So I haven’t read any of the previous posts yet but who is our target for a pure mid? We might have some players coming through but we need that 25-30 year old pure mid to come in and take control. Not sure there is anyone available that comes to mind….

On a number of occasions we left a free opposition player on our attacking side of the centre bounce with one of our guys on our defensive side. Now I can understand that if we are going to dictate the tap back to our player but on a couple of occasions Conway got the tap and went forward...

5 - Bowes 4 - Dempsey 3 - Bruhn 2 - Kolo 1 - Atkins

Just had to get the 4 points and thankfully we found a way. Can’t say I was too happy with the defence but was nice to see some mids lift in Bowes, Bruhn, Atkins and Holmes all be it against a fairly week clearance team. Long kicks into our 50 just isn’t working, with ours fwd not being able...

I read a hip kept him out. Hopefully not too serious but always a concern with his history

A lot of work to do. Midfield was always the worry coming into the season and tonight it came to life. Unless Bowes was an injury risk I think we should have played him against Ports strong mids even with Rozee out but hindsight etc. Real shame Conway wasn’t right to play as it would have...

Agree

Couldn’t agree more. So much so that I dislike it when he isn’t in them.

I’m not sure we were that great tonight, which is actually almost the most positive aspect of the night. We had opportunities up forward but struggled to make the most of them. Our defence held strong to get the win but at the same time we lacked the drive out of defence needed to attack the...

Spot on

As much as I hate to say it, I agree here. Not sure whether he is lacking confidence but he is a shadow of the player was looking to become in 2022. Last couple of weeks he has at least taken a couple of intercepts which can bring back that confidence but just needs a bit more. He is young...

Phew! Deep breath. After that, consider the midfield battle of Bont, Libba, Treloar and co. Vs Bruhn, Bowes, Parfitt and Clark. On paper we would be very nervous but to get a win is absolutely fantastic. Libba was unreal and we prob need to nullify that in future but got away with it...

Exactly. Pure midfielder for me. Don’t think he is good enough for AFL but okay depth.

Agree with this. His first halves he seemed to play majority midfield and was getting some nice numbers and was handy by foot. After half time he looked to move forward and went missing for the most part. You would think that would come down to fitness and maybe giving others a go in the...

Spot on

That pick 94 clearly sways this trade in our favour

Pick 25 is more than enough for an out of contract Sav who doesn't want to be at the club. I would much rather the opportunity to pick a kid at 25 who is motivated to succeed and play for the club than to take nothing at all..

Agree. I wonder if they can get away with Conway next year and Stanley as either 1st choice or back up and then another player on stand by kinda like Ceglar but probs someone who is fit and can play

Agree with this. Although I wonder if they take the punt and roll the dice with Conway next year. Have Stanley as back up or maybe pick up another mature ruck but might be hard to find someone to play VFL. I am hoping Holmes can become a centre bounce mid with his speed but can also see his...

What does everything think our priority is in terms of position? I think midfield no doubt and to drill down a type that can break the lines. Then I think pace off half back will be really important but players with good skill..
