Did you read his post bruh? Ned was in the main team and Pedlar in the probables ie Ned ahead of Pedlar.

Sorry for confusion George. Pedlar was in main team the probables against Nat the possibles and he played well

This seems like a win to me. Pies have built him up already and we may reap the rewards.

Doedee is not considered a KPD by anyone that knows football.

Murray has a big leap.

Look I’m not bagging the selection, just that he’s not a tall KPD, but he might actually be a good defender and player.

I’m glad the club recognised we needed another KPD.

'County Cork's Mark Keane should be on the radar of AFL clubs, with the 193cm prospect excelling in match simulation with outstanding game sense, kicking and contested marking.'

Definitely sounds like it's worth a punt.

Well done AFC

All good, thanks mate

Building a bit of a Collingwood group at the club nowadays. Seeds, had Crocker for a spell, now Madgen, Brown and Keane as well as Burns as a coach.

Bucks coach next year?

 

[CromradeCromulent]

Not going to claim to know a single thing about him, but damn not bad.

Keane to see what he's got ehehehehehehe

 

[Danger in Texas]

Fills a need, still kinda young, doesn’t seem totally useless

Not expecting much from him but definitely worth a punt. Like this signing a lot better than Brown

From what I've gathered he was just about to break into the 22 when he quit and dominated in Hurling back home.

The problem with Milera is translating his training form into match day when there are opponents running at him.

Brent Reilly had the same issue.

There were a few, some nice foot work

Wouldn't mind Milera having a Brent Reilly 2012 season.

Milera’s evasiveness was one of his main attributes until imo he got a bit heavy and lost it to a degree .
Burgess has been our best recruit and reckon we see that in Milera this year, very excited for him and expect big numbers.

After not playing for four years, he came in and was used all over the ground and dominated in each position apparently.

Not one draft pick in all that time? Come on mate, not talking about using a top 10 pick.

If that’s what they think and they are ok with a crappy ruckman, then another example tjat we need a change.

we embrace bog average.

 

[1970crow]

We are too busy grabbing gun midfielders at pick #53 instead

Definitely need drafted mids to rattle the cage, but where we drafted mids definitely speaks to a serious strategic flaw at the highest footy dept level.

this would not surprise me

Not the point heat maps Have Geelong drafted any rucks in the last 5 years?

Geelong have needed a decent ruckman for more than a decade and haven't bothered with anyone any better than Stanley. Instead they've just pottered around being incredibly successful.

Ruck is the least important position on the ground, and barely impacts whether your side succeeds or not.

Both grand finalists just traded for one when the need arise. We should do the same in a year or two.

IF this is the case ....then why have GEEL been trying so hard to get a Ruckman ? .....it's illogical

Go back and look what Gawn did for Melbourne in their premiership year

 

[cleanhands]

I took it as they had teams rotating, but looks like I was wrong, I can admit that

I’m expecting to do the same one day…… what does it feel like

Sucks

Again missed the point and you didn’t answer the question

looking at the GF, he played half a game as a centre square mid and half on a wing. Not sure how he's relevant to a discussion on ruckmen.

 

[Mostyn]

Richmond won three flags with a completely mediocre ruck. Sydney, Western Bulldogs, GWS were all grand finalists, and all had mediocre rucks. Nic Nat didn't even play in WCE's flag.

Having a good or mediocre ruck has almost no impact on the success of your side.

Is that an Irish joke?
