Care to enlighten us why?If we ever got Bobby he's either playing on the wing or not playing at all.
And all along our rightful list manager has been here or along.You would have been happy when we brought in Lobb and Hogan as well.
I have no issue with our drafting.
Our players identification, and trading in general is shocking excluding a few players we got overs for.
When was the last time we brought in a player and won the trade?
Acres - Disaster
Aish - Pass
Conca - Pass
Lobb - Disaster
Hogan - Massive disaster
Wilson - Poor
Matera - Poor
McCarthy - Disaster
Hill - this was a good trade, mainly because we got a better return
Hamling - Good, but we could not keep him fit
Kersten- Poor
Bennell - Poor
So many players brought in, with very little strategy.
When are we targeting a flag, and how are the players we are bringing in helping us achieve that?
You are dreaming - the best small forward in the country is playing for the dees - In his second year he scored 41.41 - Hill has scored 25.22 over 3 years (this year he scored 14.12 - no comparison really.He’s not living up to the promise he showed in his draft year.
He has the ability to be the best small forward in the game, in the mould of Cyril.
Looking at the players doesn’t reflect the trade.
Conca was a free agent. Entered leadership group. Stop gap. Excellent pick up.
Hamling can’t get on the park. Disaster.
Acres was steak knives. Pass.
McCarthy allowed us to obtain Darcy, Ryan, Cox and Logue. It is by far the single best trade Freo has ever done. The fact McCarthy was no good doesn’t make the trade bad.
Hogan an absolute disaster. Not only did we not have the pick for King. The pick that went to Melbourne was used for May and they just won a flag.
There’s no way Lobb is a disaster given what we paid and the football he’s played for us.
Ha ha - yeah true. All they need to do is watch is highlights on you tube. Not everyone can do that.
What part of “He has the ability to be the best small forward in the game” is confusing.You are dreaming - the best small forward in the country is playing for the dees - In his second year he scored 41.41 - Hill has scored 25.22 over 3 years (this year he scored 14.12 - no comparison really.
Do the dees need Rory?? Lets swap for Kysaiah
Ok.
I never mentioned Lobb.
I reckon you will be able to add Clark to that list in a couple of years if we bring him in. Something just does'nt sit right with me.I have no issue with our drafting.

By all accounts Scarlett did not want a bar of him...that's a red flag for me.
Our drafting has been so much better than our trading it is not funny. Take the picks to the draft and pick wa kids that stay with us. It will set the club up for years
Yes that is a possibility. He was a knob on the field .Geelong did move on Scarlett. So maybe he was just a knob. Which suits my narrative better if we land Clark.
I don’t know about Clark, but Scarlett is definitely a knob.Geelong did move on Scarlett. So maybe he was just a knob. Which suits my narrative better if we land Clark.

Henry has alot of work to do to cement a spot in fwd line - his defensive skills are substandard at this stageBecause I know for a fact he'd prefer to play in the middle. Inside / Out (mostly) is where we need him. Use his speed and coverage in the middle where we need it. Structurally we'd be wasting tools putting Hill & Henry in the same part of the ground together, and Hill is the better winger, Henry the better forward.
Hill is alot quickerYou could say the same about Liam Henry. People still say it about him.
Can’t help but think they’re similar players.

Aish is one of them and arguably been the most useful of the lot. Hogan the other?9 out 11 players you listed are Colin Young players.
Jumping the gun here a bit. We lost Cerra but have turned a draft hand of 8,27 and 81 into 6, 8, 19, 27, 2 x 60s and 81. And we gained former top 10 pick in Brodie. We have not lost anyone else at this stage.
I reckon thats ok but then I am a glass half full guy.

I think that is being kind. His defensive skill set is non-existent.Henry has alot of work to do to cement a spot in fwd line - his defensive skills are substandard at this stage
