To the eternal regret of Quain Kornes key forwards are going to keep getting long, long extensions.

When the Dogs sign up Darcy long-term which is paying $1.01 to happen as his father is STILL A CLUB DIRECTOR they'll have Naughton signed up to 2032, Jamarra to 2026, and I'd guess Darcy signs until Tassie comes into the comp or his free agency eligibility.

That's the other bit of urgency for us to attract one, gotta get in before Tassie shows up throwing silly money around.

Reckon this will be less of an issue than you think lol.

If I was a player, there's not enough money in the world for me to live in & play for Tasmania.

Sooooo, the weather is shit. Yes, even shitter than Geelong, Adelaide or Melbourne. There's nothing to do aside from knit double headed beanies. And you're going to lose pretty much every game for the first three seasons.......

Or you could go to the Lions.........Half the money, triple the fun & all the success......

Trying to come up with a 2025 team and I don't see where Day fits other than backup. It is one of the bolded guys that would come out for Day or any other tall forward and I don't see based on history, both recent and past any of those guys coming out without an injury for a third tall. I know previously it has been our preferred method, though when Gunston was injured we played with two.

Hippy could play some ruck, I did notice he did a small amount in the GF. We obviously need some KPF cover though so Day makes sense.

I think Smith will play because there is no way the Lions will throw Hippy in the ruck…he will be injured in 5 minutes and is to valuable as a roaming, link-up forward to risk him

Oh I agree - but Tassie will be used by every player agent to bid up salaries.

Don't be so sure.

This is completely true. One of the key reasons I moved from Hobart to Sydney

There's nothing to do aside from knit double headed beanies.

This is completely incorrect. One of the amazing things I found about moving from Hobart to Sydney was that there wasn't more "stuff" on in Sydney, all the time, with a population of 5 million compared to only 200,000. Hobart absolutely fights miles out of its weight division for its ability to hold events relative to its size and population.

Don't be so sure.

Fair enough…I was a bit more emphatic than I probably should have been surely that’s not wise??

He’s tall but is he built for ruck duties?

God no. If he went in it would only to fill a quota to have a ruck at a contest.

[lioninthesand]

Massive no to Weiderman, would rather devalop Smith if we don’t go the mature option.

Kid just ain’t up to it, don’t need Smith, Ryan and him on the list.

 

[buttermuffs]

Even though Day is good I’m still primarily on the Henry Smith train.

 

[JasRulz63]

At this point in time, I'm supporting giving Henry Smith the first go with Day as back up in reserves if required.

Yep, I reckon that’s what the club is thinking too…playing Fort as a ruck/forward might even be ahead of playing Day…I think Sam will be our injury cover tbh

Fort's never let us down when he's been called up.

Whether he has what it takes to play a more rounded role is problematic but one thing you know is he wouldn't completely cough it up.

It was a canny recruiting effort to get hold of him and he seems happy here despite not playing a lot of Senior games.

Should be over the moon now. Premiership player !
Some greats of the game never got to win one before they retired and Fort managed to do it.

I guess it helps he supported the Brisbane Lions as a youngster. Living the dream.

Is that you James Sicily?

 

[Saucery]

One of the other things some of the "average at best" forwards we may opt for is their jobs will be made a lot easier for them getting quick ball out of the center delivered by the "Brisbane Globe Trotters" midfield. As long as they can learn when to lead and when to decoy it will all be ok.

That is the worst article I’ve ever read. Even at the time. I assume this guy is no longer involved in the media after an effort like that?

The article mentioned we lack a strong intercept marking player, LMFAO!

 

[Dalions]

I love this bit the most.

“If defensive running and pressure is an issue, Dunkley doesn’t fix that. He hasn’t been a top-50 player in the league at all for defensive-half pressure acts in his career and in terms of overall pressure, the Lions had three midfielders alone who applied more pressure acts than the 25-year-old”.

 

[Viceregal]

Oh dear oh dear where on earth would we have been able to find anyone to intercept

The idea the Dunkley wouldn't add anything to our midfield defense is just ... wow even we on here knew he would do that!

Shame our defense is so sucky and individualistic too ...

 

[Pns_blister]

Ahh Dim Dem.. Yeah he’s written a lot of really inaccurate articles pertaining to us over the years.
