Straight swap Boekhoerst. Get it done, er... who's getting it done?Carlton like him.
I think Cox has been protecting the eggWhat about the egg? Did we get that to 100 or did he take it with him?
Let’s not forget though he became a defender because he was no good anywhere else.All those players at least 3cms taller than Laverde. He shouldn’t be playing on them. But we have no one else currently. We need Reid back and club feels Hayes not quite ready.
I want to know who you reckon was worse? I’m nominating Ed Considine (sorry Ed if you’re reading this)Not even close but it was horrible.

How tall is barrass, how tall is Tom mccartin, how tall is Steven May,how tall is Wilkie. Absolute cop out about laverde’s height.
Michael Quinn?I want to know who you reckon was worse? I’m nominating Ed Considine (sorry Ed if you’re reading this)
So what do we call a defender who can't play on smalls, mediums or talls?Laverde was drafted as a high marking, running medium forward flanker, not a full back. He wasn’t tall enough to be a proper key position forward, moving into the back line hasn’t made him any taller.
He bulked up to make his body more resistant to injury and to be able to handle bigs better but he’s still not a key position player as much as we have decided he is.
We can offer them Jayden Laverde + an extra 3rd round draft pick just to take him pleaseCarlton like him.

Sounds like a set-up to a joke I don't have a punchline for

Mate he got towelled up by Darcy Fogarty - the absolute prototype strong medium fwd that Laverde is built for. It's a myth that he's unfairly maligned by being forced to play out of his division; he actually gets beaten by players of every size and shape.Well I would argue he could play on mediums if he actually played on the mediums.
Like, he has actually done good jobs when we’ve given him suitable match ups in his weight division, but if we’re going to continue to go with the undersized defence and him playing on bigger opponents and not pressuring the ball carrier I don’t see the point anymore.

It's because he's so slow and has 0 defensive craft that anyone his size can either outmaneuver him or just outrun him on a leadMate he got towelled up by Darcy Fogarty - the absolute prototype strong medium fwd that Laverde is built for.

not for yearsHas he ever played forward, for us?
Horrible set shot kick for goal. I’d be a better option at 44. I wouldn’t miss from within 25-30 metres… I wouldn’t run to get the ball but that’s not a requisite is it?Has he ever played forward, for us?
Haha! Short leash, anchored in the goal square, minimal running required!Horrible set shot kick for goal. I’d be a better option at 44. I wouldn’t miss from within 25-30 metres… I wouldn’t run to get the ball but that’s not a requisite is it?
Do jumpers come in XXL?

If the only players he can supposedly defend are midfielders who rest fwd then he doesn't deserve to be on a listI wouldn’t necessarily be singling out the game where we conceded 9 goals in 13 minutes as any kind of conclusive proof of anything, plus Fogarty is a genuine key forward irrespective of height, same with Caddy.
Laverde is outclassed in that weight division and should be going to the Hayward/Owens/Callum Brown/Zurhaar/Dangerfield and Martin resting forward types. That much is obvious to me but we don’t use him in that way.
We'd be able to trade Stringer...Haha! Short leash, anchored in the goal square, minimal running required!
We needed to have done something about it before Michael Hurley and Cale Hooker retired.Whilst this is true, we refuse to address it. It’s been the case for years, and will in all likelihood be the case again next year. We need to actually do something about it
This is a great reason for him to play VFL. He does encourage and push his team mates. Would be good to have around the young guys.Disappointed we didn't get games into hayes and or more games into Cox as key position defender and laverde spend some more time in the ws.
Should be a great depth player but used as a automatic selection this year.
Gives good effort and hard at it bit a bit undersized and decision making and skill errors hurt.
peak of the male form right hereI think if you check the tag on Darren Jarman's jumper they might even come a little bigger...
