That's what it looked like to me from watching the game. Kicked a nice long goal from just inside the fifty and could have had another one.

From memory (and I followed that draft pretty closely) Richmond would have picked Amiss over Gibcus if he was available.

I think Cerra has plateaued a bit as an accumulating solid to good user of the ball. Not really the athlete to burst away but keeps on keeping on and stays tidy with it. I expect he will benefit from Walsh and Cripps being fit for a whole season.
Richmond would have picked Amiss ahead of us.

Amiss is better than Cerra
I'm glad he left

The "world" may not be ending next year but JL's world as coach most certainly will if we don't at minimum play in a prelim I reckon. Hence why we are going all in and thinking now with no eye to the future.
I reckon he will be a free agent if he wants to go
Rookies who are offered a 3rd year rookie contract automatically become free agents
Don't think we have the list spots to upgrade him if we are bringing in multiple players in trades
Its finals now though, intensity was high today and last week
Don't think so, they were keen on a KPD, the issue is that Carlton would have picked Gibcus meaning Tigers definitely would've taken Amiss
Yes Half Forward is what I would say; compare him to Taj Wyburd who was playing deeper I think?
What I did like was Simpson's pressure on the ball carrier; the stats say he only had two tackles but I thought he chased pretty well most of the day. He isn't getting enough of the ball and his decision making by foot is at times questionable. He has lots of depth on his kick and normally pretty straight, but I think he gets caught in two minds on what he is trying to do with it.
In opposition to the half back argument, I would like to see him play closer to goal and really go for the snaps and shots at goal and maintain pressure.
Well multiple people have said what I said so.....either we are all remembering incorrectly or you are.
Got to take a long term approach to Simpson but jeez Mannagh would've been bloody handy this year
Keep bringing him up because we had strong links
Clohesy was another one we had links to and GC got in just before us in the rookie draft, he would've been bloody handy too
Haven't heard too much about mature agers for this upcoming draft

I remember the talk at the time, Tigers actually passed on JVR (KPF) later in the first round too, they really honed in on Gibcus late
It wouldn't have mattered anyway, if we don't have the Carlton pick then Gibcus is off the board and Amiss goes, so we needed that pick to get Amiss
3 finals and a top of the table clash in there...

I'm gonna choose to believe that it's a good sign the article mentioned Emmett but not NOD.Elsewhere, fringe forward Tom Emmett could seek a move back to South Australia as he looks to reignite his AFL career

Even Matt Clarke on Gettable couldn't be arsed pretending it was a real possibility. With Baker it was "we'd love to get him, he hasn't nominated a club yet, we need that age bracket and leadership". With Bolton it was "it'll be difficult for anybody to get him".
Yeah, but he’s on an AFL list. Why are we justifying 5 and 6 touch games for 4 weeks?
It’s actually hard to do, only get 6 touches. He’s done it 4 weeks in a row.
Top of the table, finals, who cares. What’s going on with him.
Personally think he should be dropped.

A mate of mine put the wind up me last night saying he’s heard somewhere that there is some trade package deal going on which involves those 3 going over with McWalter as the new coach
Sent shivers up my spine hence Ive been looking around for any talk on this today
I couldn’t see a way they had the picks to pull this off but pick 3 and the new coach thing put an unusual spin on the argument
Hopefully it’s just the usual BS but who knows

If we had Cerra I also think Young would have spent his career as a half back.
Dropped for who?
We only had 11 Freo listed players in the side so we don't need to drop a Docker for Brodie (wrong position anyway)
Colton was far worse today so he clearly goes out for Wilson (Coops had 2 shots at goal, Colton none)
So who do you suggest we bring in for that small forward role?
Coops is the best option we have there, Peel's reserves didn't make WAFL finals so whoever comes in will be off a month of 0 games too.
Personally I reckon he is going to love the open space of Optus, would be mad to drop him, the experience of a WAFL GF will be great too. I'd understand if Peel had someone knocking the door down but the only player who could take his position is Colton who has also come off a 4 touch game, a week off and a 5 touch game without impacting the scoreboard.

And ****ing up the list for the next coach
Yeah i think he puts on enough defensive pressure to play a role in the team. He is probably fatigued but the big drop in possessions also coincides with him no longer getting any mid minutes.

Is the decision making a WAFL thing? He'll likely be presented with better options by Treacy/Amiss/Jackson and have less time to make a decision. Just wondering this as his decision making was what most impressed me when he played earlier in the year.

Young players are inconsistent, and he’s playing a difficult role.
Has some great attributes, unlikely to be a star but could be a best 22 player in his position in a couple of years.
The GF will be a great experience for him.
