Not sure if I can sit through two and a half hours of that....do you feel he showed anything of AFL significance during the course of the game?

I was certainly at the davies game.......
Despite it being the last game of the season & neither team in finals contention there was a real buzz in the crowd in the last quarter.
I seem to remember Fev getting 'dragged' by Pagan during the last quarter for some silly indiscretion.
You may well remember there was no MCC Members' Stand or Ponsford Stand at the time as they were both being rebuilt.

yeah, I think so - I'm pretty sure I watched from the gss........
Agree. Has been on a AFL list too so knows what to expect. Further on than others. Wasn’t thrilled initially but know nothing of him really and is the type we need, can he grab a second chance? Let’s hope so.
4 premierships with Subiaco and Peel Thunder and 4 games with the Dockers.
85kg too. Sounds like a great fit for the Blues

How does Deluca compare to Gibbons?

Why all the Deluca talk......didn't we give Adelaide our first round pick, and we get back their pick 12?
Me too, knew him quite well, round 7 2004.
Pies gave him as much space as our defense tends to do now at times...
I’ll take anyone as long as they can kick, tackle and handball. Which, now that I write this, might be asking for too much.

It's an afl.com.au article.
AFL mid-season Phantom Draft according to Fox Sports.
https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/af...r/news-story/6d442447d5145c5131d7df053417552d
PICK 1 - Carlton - Josh Deluca
The Blues had been linked early to Coburg forward Sam Lowson, who suffered an injury scare on the eve of the mid-season draft.
But the consensus among the club recruiters watching on at Ikon Park on Sunday was Western Australia mature-aged prospect Josh Deluca is the man likely to be called out by the Blues with the first mid-season rookie draft pick since 1993.
Kyle Dunkley was another player considered to be in the mix for the selection, but there have been suggestions the Blues hadn’t even interviewed the 18-year-old.
The 23-year-old former Docker didn’t play at WAFL level on the weekend following a hamstring niggle. He has averaged 25.7 disposals this season playing for Subiaco.

An outdated one.
Haven't seen a lot of him this year, so don't know how much he may have improved. But I watched him a few times when he was playing at Peel and he knows how to get into the right places and has speed.
His disposal is a bit iffy (but not as bad as some make out). The major knock on him is his resilience; the reason he only played 4 games in 4 years at Freo is because he kept breaking down. Not sure if he has a body that can sustain an AFL workload.
He’s listed at 179 cm isn’t he and 80 kg at that size I’d rather take Mitch McGuire from Canberra. But we already have undersized inside mids so what’s the point.

You just described Gibbons, so what’s the point.

Not sold on Deluca but will support him and hope he adds value.
Still think we should be looking at who we think will be the best for us long-term rather than as a stop gap.
And I am still keen on Dunkley who looks to have really developed this year.
For selfish reasons I will be disappointed to lose Anderson and/or Fisher if they are selected tonight, both are important players for the Northern Blues.
