Just needs to focus on the basics like set shots from 35m out.
Think his brain moves too fast for his body. But the talent is there

He's a midfielder anyway
Him and Dawson on the wings
If Blakely can become a goal a game 20-25 average mid, holy shit

Hard to watch our side sometimes. At least Warner and Gould would make a bloody effort. Id settle for them cleaning up the opposition and showing some heart. Still want Stephens to get a game too, get some minutes into them. I could handle insipid games if the young guys are blooded.

Anyone know why we put all our eggs in the Naismith basket and didnt recruit a single ruckman despite seeing how disastrous it is without Sam?
Even an Archie Smith type was just sitting there for a 1 year cheap contract, and nothing

Cause our thought process and decision making of the last few years has been awful?

Probably thought that Sinclair was good enough to be a first ruck when Naismith wasn't there.
The list actually does have quite a lot of rucks - Naismith, Sinclair, Amartey, Knoll, McLean - trouble is only two of them are really first rucks.
Given we'll likely lose 2-3 of them for next season I reckon we have to take a crack at a proper ruck.

We have 5 ruckmen and drafted 2 in the supplimentry drafts. The club is trying pretty hard to get rucks.....

Which elite ruck would you have gone for with our first pick in the last five years? Or how would you have traded for one?

Because I'm sure you and others who were complaining about our midfield - myself included - would've loved if we used a pick on a ruck instead of Stephens, or Rowbottom the year before.

That guy
To be fair of that list, leaving Naismith out, the rest are not rucks.
They are merely tall.
Agree with the we need a crack at a proper ruck statement for sure.

Who knows who we have enquired about.
Swans: “how does he feel about a move to Sydney?”
Manager: “no good, has a few offers in Melbourne where he’d prefer to stay so he will take one of those”
This doesn’t make the media...

So Naismith has another year left on his contract, if list sizes are reduced next year do we payout his last year and delist him? Obviously we need the cap space to be able to do it and it always seems harsh to delist someone who has been unlucky with injury but it just doesnt seem likely that Naismith is ever going to be fit for long and is 28 next month.
