I wish all our players were as clean as fog.
Was very 'one touch' in the finals.

Was very “one touch”
Avg less than 1 contested touch per quarter across the finals
I really don’t want to “pick on Fog” he’s handy depth & tries hard. But he’s depth at best, shouldn’t be anywhere near the 22 if we are going well.
Excited that EH comes in & provides more in the middle, speed, goals & can take a grab.
Fogs position IMO is one of the biggest areas for improvement & actually a pretty simple upgrade.

Fog is best 22 until he's not - no harm in Cory Durdin having to earn his place in the side

The truth sometimes arrives on horses. 🐎
Lieu looked a chance at the end of last year but his form dropped off this year.
Ramshaw played an awesome game against the bombers and looked like a great prospect with great dash from the contest, but then barely got amongst it for the rest of the seas
If we are filling spots just for the sake of it we should have kept LOB. Not a great thing to delist guys with a contract.
Need to find better best 22 forwards in terms of hitting the scoreboard if we want to take the next step imo.
Jeremy Sharp DFA to replace Lochie OBrien on the wing depth chart
I really liked him a few years back and think he should get given a go but maybe not us. Our wing depth is pretty decent now. Acres, Hollands, Binns, Cottrell, Doc
Agree. While I appreciate the role Fog played this year you can't be in the side for your defensive work and nothing else. It's a weak point if we have to play him just for his pressure because nobody else can do that plus hit the scoreboard.
You don't have to kick 35 goals, but you need to do something. Close and McCreery are examples of forwards who get in the side primarily due to their defensive work but pose some offensive threat. Would love to see Durdin take on this role next year.

Surely West Coast take him
Not interested in Sharp, nor do I believe the WA are interested
Agree 1000%
Plus Lucas Campo next year

Fog is probably the best of the forwards at the up the ground stuff, and is the best tackler.
If he can either improve his shot on goal accuracy (currently 40%) or his goal assists he can hold his spot.
Meat and potatoes type, but you need them.
Pretty good at his centre bounces too just quietly

No - hence I raised his name as the 40th man on the list. We have just lost Fisher, Dow and Curnow. Who is playing on-ball in our VFL midfield rotation? Carroll? I suppose Fogarty could find himself in there again if we are without injuries.
Could get awkward the following year, adding Sharp to this:
Acres, O Hollands, Docherty, Binns, Cottrell, Camporeale twins
Hollandaise iirc
Carroll, maybe one of Hewett or Kennedy, maybe one or both of Cuningham and Fogarty, if Binns isn't playing seniors he might get some rotations on-ball, maybe we draft a midfielder, maybe if someone like Durdin, Owies, Cowan, etc are playing reserves then they get some rotations.
There's no DFA's so far I'm really that interested in.
If we're after a bit of midfield depth following the departures of Ed, Dow and Philp, I'd be looking at Lachie Sullivan from Dog's VFL.

Or alternatively Fog continues to improve? Bloke has been ravaged by injury. Finally gets back and shows that he's a lot better than many think despite having no pre-season. No reason as to why he can't improve with a full pre season and a bit more confidence in his back.
He already has a quite a few attributes that our coaching panel value. I'm pretty confident that he'll fight like he'll to get better.

E.Hollands, Binns, Cuningham and Carroll who all weren’t in the best 22 by the end of last year so they are all strong possibilities.
Kemp, JSOS and Durdin all might get a run too and none played in the prelim. Another option might drop out of the 22 with Williams returning too

Fog will continue to get games until we have someone that can push him out.
Ed and Dow played 27 games between them last year.
So who is going to fill those games first? EHollands and some games from Binns, more games from OHollands?
Who do we have left (in the VFL mid) to push Fog out?

What a difference 12mths can make. Dockers ready to deal last year and now no room.
WCE could do with talent but don’t seem interested.
JS did play some good games (‘21?)
