Ha, you think that would force the hand of our stubborn coach? He would just have green lighted spending picks on some has-been defender instead.
I'd let TMac walk and trade out May for a 2nd rounder if it would force the coaches hand to send Petty back to defense and play a more attacking game style but it won't happen.
So rather than try and change we just accept being the boring shit 15th team again? I like Melk and Tmac deserves a year, but there's no actual good reason for either of them to play for us next year.Ha, you think that would force the hand of our stubborn coach?

We should have given him a taste so he could go into the off season knowing how much fitter and stronger he needed to get. Short sighted, protect your job coaching.I know there is doubts on Jeffo but I'm really surprised that we didn't give him a run this year. His vfl form was actually really solid in the second half of the season, what did we have to lose by playing him?
Change by getting rid of hunter and other list cloggers. Then trade Oliver for draft picks. Keep Melk and TMac for training standards and help bringing those kids through faster. Can't cut them all in one year but between this year and next we still end up turning over 35-40% of our list.So rather than try and change we just accept being the boring shit 15th team again?

Money. Lots of money.He can’t spend picks if we are such a rabble that no player will come to us
Keeping players for training standards give it a rest theres 10 coaches at the everyday surly that’s there job.Change by getting rid of hunter and other list cloggers.

No, I'm saying there is no point getting rid of players like TMac if they are just going to bring in some other vet from another team to replace them.So we should play a stack of vets and finish bottom 4 and make the rebuild even worse? Your logic is all over the place
Who says they are? You're justifying one bad decision with a hypothetical. No one wants to come to us anywayNo, I'm saying there is no point getting rid of players like TMac if they are just going to bring in some other vet from another team to replace them.
Oliver was in the team and Hunter would have been if not injured. Proper changes would be coach and gameplan.Getting rid of blokes who aren't in the team isn't making proper changes.
By your logic we would just trade the Oliver picks for old players so why even botherOliver was in the team and Hunter would have been if not injured. Proper changes would be coach and gameplan.
Don't bring logic into this when we are talking about what goody and lamb will doBy your logic we would just trade the Oliver picks for old players so why even bother
It's not like Turner was a gun backman either. He was ok. And he basically plays the same role as Lever. He's too small to take on the big boys, and not nimble enough to take on the smalls. So it makes sense to try him as a roaming high half forward.Mostly agree, though I still think there might be something there with Turner as a forward. Has a bit of presence about him, he's athletic, has a good attitude for a KPF (campaigner) and has a good kick on him.
I don't mind if we persist with him for a bit. Petty on the other hand should never go near the forward line again. And agree we need to see Jefferson – have him and Turner battle it out over preseason for the second tall role.
Murphy Reid filled out the stat sheet very nicely in another excellent performance as he and his Sandy Dragons continue their march towards potentially another flag. When the conditions get breezy, it just allows Murphy to separate himself from the rest, showing his class and elite control of the footy. He hit targets with ease and made a couple of his goals look simple from difficult opportunities. His clearance work is worth highlighting this week, his movement and clean hands at ground level was elite and he applied defensive pressure which hasn't always been a strength.
I guess so. He also does the sideways shuffle into a pocket of space like Pendles. Is very classy and poised, but only 180cm and not crazy athletic. I'm sure he would tell you that he's a midfielder, but I expect he'll start AFL life as a forward flanker or winger.This kid looks great.
What's his best player comparison? A Zach Merrett type?

Make sure you all save some melts for us getting some spud like Archie Perkins on the last day of trading, don't waste them all now.
Queue the "former top 10" headlines and some stupid comment from us about how we rated him ahead - insert gun player here - in his draft year.Make sure you all save some melts for us getting some spud like Archie Perkins on the last day of trading, don't waste them all now.
It'll be Tim Membrey, Bailey Williams and some cheapo mid like Alex Davies from GC
Maybe Jack MCrae, IDK Derskon.It'll be Tim Membrey, Bailey Williams and some cheapo mid like Alex Davies from GC
Alex Davies would be good...but he re-signed with Gold Coast.It'll be Tim Membrey, Bailey Williams and some cheapo mid like Alex Davies from GC
