Chol would be good stop gap in the shot term. Would depend on the price though.

There wouldn’t be many who could hold their head high today. From what I saw it was a very poor performance.

I have real concerns he will make it as a KPD. I reckon a forward is his best chance or a 3rd tall floater down back.

The thing I would like about Chol is he is 200cm with a long reach for that high ball. He isn't good enough to be the only target at AFL level, but definitely good enough to demand a key defender, and therefore take a lot of slack from Lewis who could be freed up. Would be a fair bit cheaper than Ratugolea but I think more effective as a forward. Watched the whole game today and he was more than a class above (although our key defenders weren't much chop). Wasn't thinking he'd be on our radar but after today very much worth considering.

In fairness to Denver he's giving up close to 15kegs on Chol. Chol would be best 22 up forward for half a dozen clubs at the moment.
Not what you hope for in a top ten pick

Chol can take his lazy, refuse to defend attitude elsewhere thanks. There is a good reason he is playing in the VFL.
To be fair to Denver it's his ill discipline that is the major concern for him

Was very disappointing that's for sure.
Needs to learn to harness that aggression and luckily he has the best mentor in Sicily.
Jekyll and Hyde game for Denver. Good first half up forward. Shit second half down back.
He's a forward.

I hope Kosi signs on to stay. Stood up in some big moments across the VFL final series. He can make the ruck forward role his own while Ramma builds.
Box Hill game shows why we need to hit the draft again this year.... I don't see any of our small/medium forwards coming from the game today. Also no future pure key position players. Ramsden as a 2nd ruck is still genuinely promising but will require a lot of continued development. Would be ideal if we could get another pick on top of our first and McCabe, to get more talent developing in the areas where we are thin.
Just doesn't seem to be learning, very disappointed he's showing the some mistakes as he did in his first year

That will not fix his lack of discipline!
Gave away 50m and made it an easy goal, when we had crawled back to with in one goal in the last qtr and killed it for us!
It’s not the first or last undisciplined kick he gave away.
It now makes me wonder if a lack of fitness is anything to with a lack of discipline with his diet?

Oh I think Bennetts could make it ….. 3 goals today and under pressure.
I got the outside word

DGB was playing forward until the 3rd (?), had 4 already.

Definetly need to either draft in or trade for a quality small forward
None of our small forwards today really grabbed me as being AFL quality.
That's why Gresham would be a good get this off season if he doesn't cost too much.

Time and maturity will fix this. It took Sic quite a while to harness his white line fever. Buddy never did.
He has the talent. I wish we could merge the skills of DGB and Jeka and then we would have two serious players.
We have to have a crack at him. Would target him over McKay.

DGB is stuck in the middle, doesn’t have the size for true key position or the endurance to be damaging in other positions.
Anything close to a 2nd rounder and I think he’ll be traded, regardless of his desire to stay.

Maybe Chol won't be a bad option after all. At least we know he can kick goals at senior level.
Ryan, Kosi, Greene won't be taking us anywhere, if they are even on the list going into the 2025 season.

Chol was unbelievable today. 9 shots on goal.
DGB is a fwd. I've seen enough. Certainly won't ever be a key defender.

Have my doubts he'll make it as a foward, has shown very little so far

We don't need him to be a true key position. I think he'll become a Harrison Petty type which would be really valuable. Patience my friend.
