Which team out of Adelaide, North and Hawthorn has the better youth?

[Strapping Young Lad]

Again, Nobody is arguing that Sloane still receives CBA's, Maybe with all those CBA's he should be performing better and not missing out on best 22 for 2 weeks in a row?

"it's fact that he has had the most CBA's after Laird and Dawson proves that he's being relied upon"

 

[Engimal v3]

Looking like the gap between North and the others is about to grow at the end of the year.

Yep, the poll about says it all. North >>> Adelaide > Hawks

 

[krrzr]

"it's fact that he has had the most CBA's after Laird and Dawson"

FIFY

Such a shame we gave Sloane countless opportunities in the midfield only for him to be a huge liability, With our entire board wanting a club legend to retire end of the season

Your opinion that he's been a liability doesn't discount the fact that he's had the 4th most CBA's and has been relied upon.

While we are sticking the boots in the thread

Good better BEST in the title

Poll doesn't even say that

I don't care

 

[Roby]

Why don’t you respond to Anzacpaul?

Because theor FOS. I asked krrzr a question and they couldn't answer.

This has to be the most boring thread on bigfooty.

Not if you ignore Kane McGoodwin

 

[Sirlemsip]

He isn't wrong, You and SYL just can't understand that a player can receive CBA's while also underperforming

WTF?

You can rely on somebody who is underperforming in their role.

There are probably multiple players at almost every club who would be considered as 'relied upon' and 'underperforming' at any given time:

 

[AJB84]

Its is a verifiable fact that Rory Sloane has had the 4th most CBA’s of any Crow in 2023.

Spin away.

So playing 100% in a position that should be the number 1 CBA player in the team he is 4th.

Any player playing in this position will get this many CBA's you can see this by Crouch coming in and doing as well if not better immediately shows exactly this.

This is like saying Adelaide is reliant on Luke Pedlar because he has the 4th most goals.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Yep, the poll about says it all. North >>> Adelaide > Hawks

excellent no PP for you then.

 

[Engimal v3]

excellent no PP for you then.

No, we'll be taking some sorry

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

I’ve read this three times and I still don’t understand what you’re trying to say.

 

[SSSSSS]

4 Crows nominated for the 22 under 22.
3 Hawks.
1 North.

I’ve read this three times and I still don’t understand what you’re trying to say.

I think he’s saying Sloane is a inside mid and only an inside mid and being sent there is like a “default setting”

And if you get sent there with the only other 4 people that do… ROB, Laird and Keays/Crouch… someone has to be 4th best.

That’s my take on this deep insightful piece of analysis

 

[Elite Master]

Probably about fair. Unlike some North supporters, outside a few I don't really rate our youth. Wardlaw should make next year's 22 under 22 through.

Michalanney stiff.

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Michalanney stiff.

He and Weddle would be pretty stiff.

Thilthorpe lucky off 2023 form.

 

[HairyO]

He and Weddle would be pretty stiff.

Thilthorpe lucky off 2023 form.

Its more the lack of ruck options in the under 22 range.

 

[Strebi3]

4 Crows nominated for the 22 under 22.
3 Hawks.

Sounds about right. Soligo, Michalaney, Weddle and Connor MacDonald all stiff here.

 

[Engimal v3]

Adelaide pips the Hawks again

 

[SSSSSS]

He and Weddle would be pretty stiff.

Thilthorpe lucky off 2023 form.

Michalanney stiff.

Sounds about right. Soligo, Michalaney, Weddle and Connor MacDonald all stiff here.

Apart from Sheezel and Ashcroft, most of the squad are 2nd year players and beyond.

Expect those 1st year players will feature more in 2024.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

4 Crows nominated for the 22 under 22.
3 Hawks.
1 North.

Michalanney stiff for us.

Worrell missed too many games probably to be considered.

Confirms Hawks midfield developing well, with priorities elsewhere.

Good list of young talent.

Exactly. O’Meara and Mitchell were relied upon before being moved on due to underperforming in the midfield last year for the Hawks.

It’s now up to other players (like Newcombe, Day, Worpel, and Nash) to fill the gap, and hopefully/ideally perform better (I mean, clearly they are).

It’s the same for the Crows. They’re currently relying on Sloane, and once he’s gone, it’ll be up to others to step up and fill the void.

Sam Flanders couldn't even make the squad...
