Never change mate...

You disagree there's a lot of competition in that area? You did notice that we still select based on form, we didn't run some kind of rotation system and cycle players through just to get a look at them. If players performed and remained uninjured, they remained in the side.

Early days, but I would think he's got too many with rubber on the road to have to pass over a preseason to be best 22 come round 1. From there, how else do you think he gets a chance? You think we'll just rest a performing player when we're bottom few and chasing wins? Point to a single occasion that we did that this season outside of the the back to back to back short breaks.
 
I love Sholl, look how much more confidence he has now in that video, he's buzzing about the place. This is what happens when you play your talented youth, they get a taste and want more, they want to work harder and be better.

Hamill looks completely different without the long hair, the first time I watched I was like ummm who is that dude?

Was the the Jason Bourne lookalike?

DABM will approve. Another hair reform move. Can we jump into finals contention with much hair reform? Only Keaysey really rockin a pretty boy / attention seeking do.

Really happy with last nights Draft collection ....we lost 6 midfielders after the season, and replaced with 4 tough inside Mids, and added another quality tall

2021 Draft will be about adding midfield Class ...speed

Probably Hartigan is the player position that was not addressed .....so many contested hardball players on the list now :) ....add Milera into that midfield & exciting times ahead

.......................Riley Thilthorpe
Rory Atkins .... Brayden Cook
Ben Crocker .... James Rowe
Brad Crouch .... Luke Pedlar
Jordan Gallucci
Bryce Gibbs .... Jackson Hately
Kyle Hartigan.... Mitch Hinge
Riley Knight
Myles Poholke... Sam Berry

Hartigan was addressed last year. McAsey

Letting him walk to Hawthorn is just us clearing the path for Fish to take over. Though Butts looks like he'll have something to say about that.

Be prepared to be disappointed then .....a 2nd year KPD is not cut it YET ....2nd year players rarely do

Butts has to strengthen up a lot & learn how to use his body better in one on one contests .....something he's avoided due, up to now, to the skinny frame

IMO we need another KPD ....Talia & Hartigan out soon, Mcasey to take one roll, and ???? on the other replacement
 
Pedlar is already huge across the chest .....if both Powell and Pedlar are 183 cm, they need to re-measure Pedlar

How poor are we as a club? Two of our players still haven't been given AFC polo tops to wear. Two of them are so poor they can't even afford socks. One is so poor that his jeans are ripped at the knees.

I doubt I will be. We're in no rush with KPDs at the moment, seeing we're going to be at the bottom for another year or two yet, which will give McAsey ample time to get his game up to scratch.

By then, he'll assume the mantle of number 1, and we can dumpster dive the number 2 role, Butts will take it (if he is still around), or Talia will go again for another 1-2 seasons.

At least they aren't wearing shorts.
 
Pedlar could be a Thommo in a couple of years. Reckon he and Fog might spend a bit of time together in the weights room.
I really hope Fog lays off on the weights, and spends the rest of the summer doing laps around the oval. His problem is too much muscle mass, coupled with a lack of fitness. Spending the whole summer lifting weights will only make his problems worse, not better.

This ... This is a joke, right?
