It was strange that we delisted Clavarino. I thought he had shown enough and was improving. Particularly odd given CHB is one of the holes we need to fill.Banger9798 wrote: ↑Wed 06 Oct 2021 10:14am The Battle to Brisbane trade looks likely....might have to get Clavarino back to play CHB!

Re: Apparently he didn’t interview very well
I honestly wonder what Trout must think when watches Patracca play. He is embarrassed? Does he actually realise what he’s done or does he tell himself that he didn’t have a crystal ball and that he made the right decision at the time?

The AFL legal team are a bunch of hacks They were told that a conviction was the AFL preferred option and they couldn't deliver Waste of time, good for nothing hacks who should seriously look to change professions Jeff Gleeson is the best in the business.

Re: Hickey, Bruce and Hind
From Zero Hanger - Saints have two of worst trade decisions. 1. Nick Hind The Saints are battling, have no X factor and no rebound out of defence, yet for some reason they tried to turn Hind, who’s now having a stellar season for the Dons in defence, into a small forward. It worked on the odd occas...

Re: Reality Check and where we are at!!
Big question is IF we land a pick 7 this year, knowing we need to bring in multiple players do you run the risk and try split that for 2 picks mid 20 + early 30s OR do you say no best available mid at pick 7 knowing your odds are improved at getting a better quality player the higher up you selecti...

He’s a lazy, lazy footballer. He gives no repeat efforts or hard running to win the football and zero defensive pressure when the other side has it. He’s the complete opposite of the guy who used to wear his jumper. His goal kicking regime is the kind of thing you’d expect in a game of bush footy. H...

Re: What role does Ratts have in deterring the list?
I agree. I think he can coach and is the right person for job - at least for now.
The list is not good. That’s not his fault. We stuffed some high end draft picks and traded away too many picks for not much in return. It can’t be sheeted home to him.

Re: How have we gone backwards so far?
We’re paying the price for years and years of shocking drafting and list management. We’re cooked. We need to hit the draft hard for 3-4 years without giving away second rounds draft picks for broken old hacks from other clubs. We need to ask whether Gags and Libratore are up to the task too. They’v...
