List isn't finalize til later this month, Bradtke's on the camp too, if I was a betting man Narkle is leading the pack it seems.
may as well bring back tom elton if we are picking up bradtke
 
is that natural blonde

its amazing

A reasonable proportion of Aboriginals are naturally blond. Interesting genetic quirk. Rare, but happens.


Sparkle is a potentially good player. Not sure why we need him. But if Bradke isn't up to it then I guess he gets the gig.

that's the decision really isn't it, a know quantity that we know can play at a reasonable level at AFL, however, not really a need for us position wise (either as a mid which he normally plays, or as a HBF which is the position he has played in Match sim)

Or

An unknown quantity at the level, with AFL attributes, but in an area we severely lack depth.


So if we lose 1 or more KPF, are we going to want to replace them (Bradtke) or play small ball like '17 (Narkle).

At least if he doesn’t pick up he could always get a job with the lions as the mascot
How could he not with a mane like that
 
For those worrying about Lynch, let's not forget he played on one leg in his first season for us, had zero preseason that year, and ended up carrying us for a good portion of the season whilst Jack had a broken wrist.

Lynchy will be fine. Even if he isn't at quite the dominant level like big parts of 2022, he'll be great, and we'll have a better midfield getting him more supply hopefully.
yep, with this midfield, he will spend more time anchored inside 50 rather than up the ground.

I feel like this is a common want for Lynch but personally I much prefer him on the move, I think he is a much better playing when he is contesting high and out working his opponents back to goal. He looks like a bloke who loves early touches and when he has his tail up he is impossible to stop

Or just take a free spot to the mid-season draft.

No real news of whether Bradke is crushing it or spudding it.

We know what Narkle brings, and I like him . But not a whole lot. he's flashy, but unlikely to be a regular B grader AFL player (that is a solid long term player who makes a difference most games)

His best games have 100% been when working hard up the ground and running riot between the arcs.

I'm leaning more this way. Why commit to a player that we have ample coverage of already now when we can wait it out till mid-season?
We might have every ruck go down with LTIs by round 4. If we don't we can also just pick up Narkle then.
