Hoping hes another Hayden Young but unfortunately i see another Darcy Tucker.

How about trying to be less offended and have a laugh? Life might be a little more enjoyable. It's a pretty funny response, particularly considering Bell is not the guy that handles trading for the club. Not everyone needs to be overly fake, nice. Its so 1990s!

you've never played footy have you...

fair call. All im saying is everyone is so fixated on winning the deal that it could risk not getting done. The difference between the picks is likely very minimal. If anything at all. Just get it done. Pay the pick, get the salary paid and pick the flying Viking Alexzander Tauru... X-Factor...

10&11, 10&18.... who cares. We will still probably pick the same player whether we have pick 11 or 18. If using 10&11 pays for a bunch of salary then get it done and pick the next star at 18. Alex Rance, Daniel Kerr and Luke Shuey were all pick 18s. Fyfe was 20. having pick 11 doesn't...

Give them 9&10 and get a heap of salary paid by them... every chance we pick the same player we would of with 10 anyhow. Everyone is happy!

Gee whiz, I hope Shai learns the system quick then.

In the current draft and how even they are saying it is, two picks in the teens is possibly more desirable than one inside top 10. Lots of value right up to 30 means you potentially get two guns rather than 1. Previous years have never been like this. The demons need to blow it up and get what...

Hes great when he can run and break the lines but cannot kick under pressure. Loses all penetration and kicks loopy, moon balls that come back with interest. He showed that on the weekend a few times. Could be a liability in a finals series! Definitely scope for improvement though. Needs to...

Draft profile and stats would suggest he is a better kick than most. HAve you seen switta, AB, Aish, Fyfe, Walks, Banfield Emmett, Amiss and Pearce have bad kicking days? I would confidently say he is a much better kick than all of them!

Had 26 against us at 85%and 500m gained. Averaged 21 a game across 19 games this year @79%. Had 30 against the hawks @87% and gained 694m. He is a better kick than than anyone at our club not named Hayden Young, Josh Treacy, Luke Ryan, Jordan Clark and Sonny Walters. At least as good at Caleb...

Pearce plays and Cox is that intercept. Pretty simple really. Injuries prevented the team from playing their best footy. Take Hogan, Briggs and Taylor out of GWS. Take Cameron and stewert out of Geelong. Take allir and Georgiadis out of Port, we've seen what happened when Carlton got injuries...

Obviously by adding Bolton to their best squad which includes Pearce, Darcy and JT Freo become a contender. If Bolton played for freo for the last 6 weeks of the year, i think the would of won half the games they lost and been in it up to their eye balls right now.

Would of taken care of your mob in Launceston, so yeah, finals for sure

Hang on a minute. Freo were battling it out for top 2 until they lost Treacy, Darcy and pearce. They get a decent run at it injury wise, add Bolton and baker and get the growth from the existing young list then they are firmly in Premiership contention. Make no mistake, injuries cruelled this...

You do realise the cats didn't win anything for 44 years yeah? The wheel always turns big dog. History has little impact on the future. Every team will experience lean times. Dockers have had that and have now built a list that will compete strongly for quite a while. Enjoy the ride!

And 25 yr old Dunkley...

This is Cox every week. He hates a 1 on 1. He's as soft as they come. Great intercept marker but when he is forced to defend then he is a liability. He also refuses to go back with the flight. If he gets under the footy he quits immediately. He has shown this so many times over his career. In...

Its painful listening to Gossage call him Serong instead of Caleb. What is wrong with that guy!

I think it's also important to acknowledge the difference in roles. Darcy plays in the most unforgiving and most likely role to cop an injury. Cox on the other hand takes uncontested makes and pulls out immediately at the sign of a hard contest. I agree Darcy needs a huge off-season but let's...

Or a Jhye Clark.... haha

OR do it the Geelong way and hand out farmland in prime locations...

Libba back will change the dynamic at centre bounce. Two elite midfields going at it!

All chips in for Warner and Curtain. Warner is that goal kicking Mid/HF that we so desperately need. Chapman slides to a wing and Curtain instantly plugs into our back half with ease. 195cm, mobile defender that can play small and tall as well as potentially be a huge mid in years to come. His...

As a previous knocker of the Don, I'm here to issue a public apology. His last 6 weeks have been excellent, and his growth is evident. His kicking still leave a little to be desired but it is improving week on week. He's played 56 games. Imagine where he is at when he ticks over the ton... His...

Man, Ryan Maric is a regular in your forward line this year. Based on that alone, I'd suggest you KPF stocks aren't overly healthy... Add to that Darling is cooked and Waterman is every chance to go back to being average after a bit of a purple patch.

And the team with the worst record over the last 3 years has all the assets to make them better ;)

Enjoy this video. This guy plays wherever he wants in 18 months time...

The less Walker has his hands on the ball the better... Can definitely see Clark playing that role although he does love to blaze away with a 55m air ball rather than pin point someone 35-40m away. I think that has more to do with how we set up and the lack of options rather than him just...

This game style just does not suit our list. It requires a team of elite ball users and if there's one thing this list isn't, its elite with ball in hand. Nearly all kicks we attempt, that take ground are a challenge. The marking player has very little separation. Our list profile is so suited...
