Out: Campbell
In Poo
King to play as back up ruck ala Daniher.
Continue with the Hammer experiment down back
Lost by a point so shouldn't be too shocked.
May consider Stocker for Shoemaker

Re: Josh Battle
If we get tier 1 (straight after our 1st round pick) then long term may be a win 2 top 5 picks and $800k by 6 years for a guy who has never been top 5 B & F and not top 40 AA is a lot.

Re: Battle
It all depends on the size of the contract and length. They were saying on the radio this week that if it is 6 years and $800k then it would be , base don history , level 1 which is directly after the current first round pick. At this point in time that would be pick 5, so we get pick 4 and 5. Tough...

There is a reason he has more clubs than Tiger Woods.

Re: Will Phillips anyone??
The issue with the Covid draft is how much they missed not playing that season. Forget the number taken and expect an additional year or 2 to make assessments. If you didn't pay much for him I wouldn't mind. We are likely losing Ross, Crouch, Jones, all potentially end of this year, so for the right...

Re: Ross Lyon tactics
Great coaching strategy . on Paper they are much more talented than we are and yet through tactic and team effort were able to stifle them. Was it pretty no, but coaches don't get paid for being pretty they get paid for winning.

What I learnt from Saturday
Windy is a midfield tagger and not a HBF. Not sure why he wasn't on Reid from the start but great job in the second half to shut him down and win his win his own ball too. King looked better up the ground more . Makes him lead at the ball, Pity he got hurt as needs to get multiple games in a row. Hi...

Hey everyone… was thinking about this for some odd reason yesterday. I’ve been on this site for just under 25 years and I am far from the elder statesman here.

Deck chairs on the titanic
While the concept throw the magnets around and try to generate something new , especially through the midfield sounds great, if you don't have the points of difference or they aren't performing or ready then it is a useless exercise which causes more harm than good. As I see it Henry, Clark, Owens a...

Re: Mid season draft
I would go down the path, if they exist, of someone passed over int he draft in last couple years - perhaps for lack of physical development, injury or just weren't ready which has shown performance at a lower level and can get better. No recycled , delisted after 3 season players - not where we are...

Selection and Strategy
I must say when i saw the side on Friday I was puzzled by the selections made and it played out that way on Sunday. Sharman was poor the week before and making him the sub makes no sense. It set him up not to succeed. It is clear we still haven't worked out the type of player who should be the sub, ...

Re: Team Saints V Melbourne
clearly there is specific things which players must improve on at Sandy because after watching Sunday surely Garcia should be in.
Crouch and even clark perhaps due to injury history need to build a fitness base?
Emerg to me should be
Bonner , Sharman, Jones , Paton
Sub either Ross or Collard

If crouch is fit enough then in and Ross in 2s if needs another week then Ross in
Have option to bring him back as sub also .

Re: RoMa in the ruck

Without Crouch we lack clearance strength so to negate this perhaps this is the tactic which has been used.? I think it has everything to do with it and he is probably ...
