[Giant Strides]

I think Binga might get a fair bit more midfield time. Especially at centre bounce and around stoppage. His dynamism is a weapon for us.

me too.
maybe not so much this year, but moving forward

If Jones or Gothard can replace his forward dynamism, then I'd think Binga will get more midfield time. Or he and Bedford share more midfield time.

I like this idea.
A real bonus would be Brown attending some bounces and being effective in breaking tackles on the way out.
Bedford could be a top winger.

It's a lot to expect essentially 2 rookies to be able to replace Daniels, he was playing at an AA level and there's a very real chance neither of those guys are ready to play AFL footy. Do think Brown is someone that is in a pretty good position to take a step forward in his development, finally broke through last year and became a consistent part of the team if he can step forward and become more dangerous i50 that could maybe free up someone else to push higher up the ground.

I agree on Brown ... he can be a weapon in the forward line as he positions himself better ... a tough match up up with his height/leap and pace

Such a good pressure player at that height and weight too....it's very different to having Snooze or Binga running towards you. Brown is a big boy and would hit hard.

Binga with his speed in the midfield.

 

[Giant Pete]

Binga with his speed in the midfield.

Yep… it’s the one way our midfield can be exposed occasionally. It needs a dash more speed and agility… lots of people get obsessed with having huge bodies in there… balance is the key.

I saw something on Facebook that we have added a 3 time premiership player to our coaching staff.

Any ideas who? Im guessing that Stevie J is he most likely, anyone else it could be?

With Bartel's connection to Geelong and Kingsley to Richmond, there are lots it could be

Cameron Mooney in a Key Position advisory role? Mooney Mentors GIANTS

Also a new addition to the strength and conditioning team in Andrew Rondinelli

interesting choice.
been out of the game in an official capacity a long time.
3 premierships, part of 2 amazing sides, you'd think he'd have something to offer. I must confess though, he was not in my thinking at all!

Well, his first premiership should come with an asterisk - 0 stats of any kind & 90% on the bench
also 12 tribunal appearances/mro reports for 14 weeks & a fine (including 5 separate appearances in 2006) I’m sure he & Toby will get on really well

great player when he was on though.

welcome to the club

His indiscipline was a major reason they missed finals in 2006, it delivered Selwood to the cats.

More local players would be awesome

 

[Giant YoYo]

Academy:

Very pleasing to see. Hopefully the start of many more to come from this region of Sydney.

 

[Giant Strides]

Very pleasing to see. Hopefully the start of many more to come from this region of Sydney.

He's not that highly rated across the whole draft cohort, and relatively short at 174 cms, so he'll need to show really strong form in the academy series and then get an Allies berth in the midfield to really grab a draft opportunity.

Look at Harvey Thomas, another short midfielder, who had to play off halfback to get an Allies berth despite being quite strong at CTL level. And the past example of Nick Shipley who was highly rated, great stats as an inside mid with some wheels in the Allies team, but couldn't break into our AFL team.

Pez wont leave.
Cumming only if someone comes with a seriously impressive contract and he's not getting played.
I reckon they'll sign them up pretty quickly

Don't think we need to worry overmuch about any of those players.

Are there any players you guys think we could nab from other teams? With Haynes' big contract ending this year we might have some money to throw around.
