Yeah, 4 would be better and Merrett is the one that I'm looking to start at M1 instead of Treloar. I'm just waiting to get a bit more intel on his role. The focus will be wholly and solely on upgrading the 5 on field rookies up to and including round 12 so barring ruck coverage shouldn't be...

The byes are doing my head in! Reckon it's vital to avoid the early bye players as much as possible without ignoring the value plays and keeper potential in the starting side. Trouble is that by avoiding those byes I end up loading up on round 12 and 13 players. I also don't want to end up in...

Gawn and Xerri, set n forget baby

Agree with Hopper and TT's use of the footy, but they're both very good as extractors and defensive mids, trouble is their delivery to the outside players (Rioli, Bolton) undoes all of their good work on the inside. Our game plan used to rely on putting pressure on the oppo's 2nd & 3rd...

Yeah, I shouldn't have bothered replying, got sucked in I guess. Bauer has me intrigued, according to reports he's added some serious running power to his repertoire. It will be interesting to see how he's going to be deployed. Kosi = Urgh

The Carlton squad visited an orphanage in Melbourne today. "It's heartbreaking to see their sad little faces with no hope," said Ben, age seven.

Our prospects, Fawcett, Gray and Bauer haven't had a chance yet to prove themselves because they've been injured. LeFau showed some excellent signs given that he had to hold down the No.1 KPF role until he unfortunately went down too. This year will be perfect as an opportunity for them to show...

Such a brilliant way of controlling the people smugglers hey! Let's lock up the unfortunate refugees and poor souls that had to resort to those sorts of means to escape tyrannical regimes that were overseeing genocides. Lock up the women and children in soulless detention centres completely...

Vlastuin was an oversight, Brown to bench and Vlastuin on field. The only reason Brown played forward was that no one else was available, simple. KMac even played as a KPF as well, illustrating the dire position we were in. From training reports so far this preseason HRS is training with the...

Might've shot ya load a little early, it's not even Xmas yet ;) Looking good so far though.

Embarrassing as a country at that time, and that's when I made a vow to not listen to news, not read news and not watch news (happier for it too) It's now embarrassing as a people. "Preying on people without a mainstream voice" to quote one of the lines in that clip. Thanks for sharing.

Or.... They came down from Meekatharra In a burned-out blue FJ That farted and just shit itself in Punt Road Right next door to the MCG When the smoke had cleared a voice said: 'Eh .. this place look all right We'll tell the government it's a sacred site Dead ****ing easy' 'Good day Mr Andrew...

I look at the Lions midfield and don't see a lot of pace there with Neale, Dunkley, McLuggage and Berry. What I do see however is speed of ball movement where the mids extract from stoppages then get it to either fast players or excellent distributors by foot, so those 2nd and 3rd receivers are...

There's a lot of value out there and a shitload of rookies that could debut early. Just going through the mids and there's a bit of risk associated with some of the fallen/underpriced premiums (obviously) but geez, it's hard to go past Oliver (has to have a good preseason) Doc, Petracca, Day...

With the depth of the draft this year I can see a lot of the draftees getting games, role and position will be the key though. They guys that get to play down back should be the most productive, thinking the Travaglia, Tauru, Allan and Lindsay (mid) types. You'd think that most of the rookies...

First iteration of many, have tried to avoid the early byes, Kiddy is a wait n see. Just a couple of C & VC options, set and forget rucks.

Yeah, put it together without thinking of the byes. Like everyone, I'll be adjusting and tweaking, but I'm fairly happy with the structure.

Potentially 18 keepers

Haha, Brown/Broad to bench rotation in place of Trezise/Smith

These backlines I'm seeing are a train wreck waiting to happen, where's the line breaking pace coming from? Three talls, along with Broad and Vlastuin who can take a tall as well. Blight, Balta and Young are too much combined with the other two. We always run a 7 player backline (one on the...

Nice team, looks good if everyone is fit. Couple of tweaks for mine and I know I'll get poo poo'd for some of the suggestions, but they're just my opinion and those that disagree can get stuffed :p You're a bit tall down back which has led to a lack of pace, line breaking and setting up...

A spoiling defender role would suit his 1 handed marking attempts

He hasn't got the kicking skills. Albeit, I think that Whitfield is over rated in that dep't, can be a real turnover merchant. Looks like HRS has been training with the mids, might be doing that to improve his ground ball game. I'd like to see him given licence to run off half back, bit like...

Will be lucky to get a game in the Magoos, will require an injury or rest to one of the others higher in the pecking order with Nank and Ryan playing 1sts, OHB and Sims in the 2nds

Didn't read the fine print.... Was 100mg....

Post was more about how to get game time into the plethora of KPF's on the list, sure, if he's fit enough then debut him. Looks like MRJ has been in rehab so far this preseason so he could easily slot in there with Alger playing forward in the 2nds

You really should take something for that case of S.O.T.L.

In a sense we were lucky to have been decimated with injury and finish bottom of the ladder, I was thinking that our list at the beginning of the season was worth about 10 wins if we had have stayed healthy. Feels like the train wreck was a catalyst for the departures and pushed us towards...
