Opinion Non-Crows AFL 11

[Mutineer]

He's the same height as Taylor Walker

2cm shorter but a better aerialist.

 

[AFC979810]

Yeah, but you have multiple options of who you can defend him with - and without other key forwards to take defensive attention, he's going to have a lot of opposition focus on blocking his leads and muscling into his marking contests.

Don't think Luko will attract any attention?

Watched him kick 5.1 against us when the Suns beat us in 2023.

 

[FR0GGY]

Mitch certainly doesn’t look his height, I thought he was mid 180’s

Walsh injured - OUT for at least a month.

So now both they big keys in Curnow and Walsh miss a chunk of preseason.

Injury news: Walsh sidelined for next month

Sam Walsh will be sidelined for at least the next month after suffering a hamstring strain.

Zero Hanger rates Adelaide 10th out of 18 sides, which is understandable on last season... but imo with a fit Thilthorpe should be top 5.

Them ranking us 10th is probably taking into consideration that we are coached by Nicks.

And a fit Rankine for a full season.

Whilst he will spend more time in the midfield, the bits of time he spends in the front 6 can be game changing

Burns forward coach...

Reckon a fit Pedlar may have more influence with Rankine 70% midfield.

Also, ANB is a huge upgrade on Murphy.

I guess there's multiple future picks - and maybe it's the year to trade Darcy?

What would a team pay for Darc?

 

[skam85]

What would a team pay for Darc?

Not much, he's overweight and injury prone. He was good once but his best years are behind him.

Plus can't you just grab a ruckman from anywhere these days?

Even with that, you'd still take him over ROB

Reckon he'd be a salary dump, would just need to be wise on the 2nd ruck, can't keep Strawman

He's signed until the end of 2030, big risk.

I dunno, we have survived 6 years with an unco who can't football

I'd hold off on a top 8 prediction let alone top 5. So many false dawns with this mob
Let's see where we stand after a half-dozen games.

He’s 26!

I'm talking our forward line, not the whole side.

Our forward line is our best zone imo & top 5 in the competition.

Wouldn't say the same about our midfield...

 

[Cromulant]

Did we though ??

Almost every poster here doesnt want him, and taking on an injury prone, overweight bloke on a BIG contract is almost as dumb of a move.

 

[Floating Doughnut]

Stone?

Has shed 10 kg apparently and looking very good on track.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

You have to respect how well both of those blokes handled that.

 

[GROTTO]

Carlton missing out on the 8 in 2022, was some of the best lols on Bigfooty.

 

[Carn The Texan]

And a fit Rankine for a full season.

Rankine's best footy from last year is up there with that of any crow. If we get 20+ games out of him this year we will have at least 6 more wins than last year.

Walsh and Curnow are important pieces of their game

Unless they get adequate replacements they could struggle
