We can take it further and tie it in with the club clearly chasing Warner very hard while getting Bolton at the same time. Incredibly, the defensive balance isn't there and there's only 22 spots on a field. While Bolton/Warner/Brayshaw/Young/Serong is mouthwatering on paper, you need a support mid to do the dirty work, every top team has them, which means basically every one of those names needs to have a 2nd position making best 22 spots even harder to come by.
Someone like Baker maybe 😉
 
Warner has been absolutely blanketed this game. Great offensive player but not great at winning his own ball and imposing himself on the contest. It will hold him back from being a top 10 player. Young on the other hand...
He's great at it when it matters.

On a serious note, I think this is where people have a bit of a misconception about him. Sure this year for Chad the offensive side of his game, the burst, the goals, all that has become magnified at the cost of the contest and pressure side. But that to me has more to do with how he's used than what he can do. It's not like he can't do those things in the coalface while still being elite offensively.

His dad works in Victoria and that's where the parents spend most of their time. I said including his parents for a reason eg not his whole diret family. Its also he case that Warner's extended family live in Victoria and thats where Chad spent his early ears. Im speaking to a friend of his parents in a couple of weeks. Pretty sure the younger bros are boarders.
You need to unfollow whatever Freo FB group you’re apart of. This is way way way off the mark
 
Sherriff Incorporated you watching this post game interview with Chad Warner??

Did any of your family come over for the final??

Nah they stayed home and watched my little brothers grand final…
 
Guys Nod played 2 games. 2. He looked pretty good v GWS purely for the fact he was fresh legs and naturally has that spring that’s eye catching. Thought he came back down to Earth v Port with an “OK” game.

I want to keep him, but just like Emmett’s performances late last year, few getting carried away.

He is an enigma who should be our sub specialist if I’m being honest and we can’t be silly and offer him more than 2 years.

He’s an upgrade on many of the 22.

Nah did you see how good his first qtr was against Port? He faded as you'd expect with the injury interrupted season he's had, but he was a big part of why we started so well.

Can't be wasting that on the bench as a specialist sub.
 
O'Driscoll misses almost all the year with injury and then is best when coming onto the field late in the game or early in the game....

Sounds like someone needs to actually have a preseason so they can impact longer in games.

Great potential there. Would be a great steal for another club to poach him.

Yeah, that sting he added early really was good. But he definitely would've added more as a sub than Walters. Even if he subbed out Walters early in the third. Especially if he went in the middle more and energise it in the last.
 
He has butchered every kick so far, not thanks.

They try to play him as a rebound player when he’s not, he’s a lockdown small defender.

Schultz did an AMA on here when he still played for us and said Starcevich was the hardest opponent he’s played on which was interesting.

Right but Walker plays that role and he isn't moving to WA to be depth.

I've said in real life to my mates many a time, that what Freo are missing is the bloke who charges off the front of the stoppage and powers away... NOD can definitely be that guy, and for that alone he needs three years minimum to keep prying eyes away at the trade table.

It's started become Young this year, but having another one would be fantastic.
