McKernan for M Talia makes more sense than trading Otten IMO.
No they forgot it on MondaySo no announcement then?
anything
I'm not sure Gus qualifies as a 'thing' anymore.
ok, do you think he's been breaking the line over the last 3 weeks?Just because he's not kicking the ball doesnt mean hes not breaking the lines.
Soemtimes its just as important to break (or more beat in mackays case) the tackle, draw the 2nd opponent then handball to the free man.
This also is in line with our overuse of the footy over the past month.
Lycett was beyond reach as soon as Cox announced his retirement
Pretty silly comparison
Lyons is a very inside mid, his hands matter more than his kick.
Talia is a running defender who can't play. He can't defend and he can't kick. In his position he needs to do both!!
Lyons has the tools he needs for his position and is being held out of the team by real quality and competition in his position.
Who exactly are the famous doggies KPD keeping Talia out of the side
There is no sensible comparison between Lyons and Talia.
good, he was only ever going to go to PortLycett a done deal re-signing at the weagles and Goldsack open to coming to either SA club according to Ch9
Agree with this. We are seriously undermanned in defence, this guy is a experienced defender. Watched him against the Power and thought he was pretty solid. Yes for meI'd happily go for Goldsack. Free Agent's are a free hit and as long as they can play a role it's a no brainer.
He is 193cm, can play tall or small, forward or back, good speed, good long kick, and he's great tackler. I'd have him as our 3rd tall defender before Otten. He has the speed to keep right up with his opponent (rather than trail his opponent) and would provide some rebound to help our rebounding defenders.
Hendo, Jaensch and Smith can often get caught out defensively after a turnover because so much is expected on them to attack. If the ball is turned over they are often out of position. If 1 of the 3 talls could provide a bit of rebound it just takes some of the pressure of the others.

Said as much on the radio the other day.Talked to Goldsack on a tour of the Collingwood facilities. Asked him if he was going to be leaving Collingwood and his reply was that he doesn't want to leave, but Collingwood need to come to the table. So there's obviously a bit of distance between the two parties on length or size of contract.
Marchbank or Lever are the players I want in the draft this year
Talia can fill a role (even as a depth player if cheap enough) as an attacking tall defender. He can still rebound without being a great kicker. He can run off his man and handball to a better kicker. Someone has to start the run so he wouldn't be completely useless.
I hope he takes it!I realise its Jars and his rumours are more quantity and your bound to get one right sort of thing, but he mentioned last night a top 15 crows player who is at this moment unsigned and local has had a big offer put in front of him from the Dee's. Only player I could of the top of head think about was Jaensch. Jars also believes this player will knock it back.
I wouldn't trade our first rounder for him but would be happy enough with the other optionsWould you give our first rounder for Toumpas?
Lyons and our second?
Douglas for Toumpas and their second?
