Re: Is Roo fit to play?
Won't play for a number of weeks IMO. Missed 2 earlier this year from the same injury, expecting him to miss another 2. But this is extra special - it's his match. He and to lesser extent Jack own it. Surely if they can give him a few jabs he can camp up forward a fair bit and get subbed off at hal...

Roo and Bruce..................
p66 has repeatedly claimed that if the umpires are cheating it means the AFL is also. I am not sure the first implies the latter. now I do not think the umpires cheat, but it is always possible an individual umpire has become mixed up in all sorts of nonsense and had the hard word put on them to fa...

Re: who are our youngsters like?
Billings is like Ablett junior, you just have to watch his game against the Dogs. He's like a cat, keeps his feet, well balanced, strong core already, great hands and quicker than you would think. It will all depend on whether Billings becomes the forward version of Ablett or midfield version.

Re: mock draft 2015
Freo is a terrific place to live. I know its a long way from home for a young kid who is probably home sick but maybe he is also getting the famous Ross Lyon silent treatment. Would Spencer White plus pick 24 be enough for Lachie Weller? I am dead keen on Michael Hagan with a pick in the 40s. Just ...

mock draft 2015
Re Weller: I was speaking to a bloke from Tassie who knows the family well. He told me prior to last years draft Lachie wished to be picked up by a Vic club to be closer to his brother and parents (who were allegedly moving to Melbs). Lachie got drafted to Freo and the rest is history. This same blo...

Re: mock draft 2015
Would be looking at Parish for 1st pick, Partington, Keays or Collins for our second and Rice, Lovell and Hagan for our later. Also regarding trades I would be looking at Coniglio from GWS and Thompson the full back from GC Coniglio re-signed for a further 2 years just today. Thompson has a serious...

Congested & Less Interesting
. It cant possibly work. The centre squares works because the game hasn't started yet. While not advocating it, you could easily have a rule that whenever there is a ball-up around the ground that each team has to have say 2/3 players in each goal square (is already painted and so next extra work o...

Re: mock draft 2015
I hate quoting in this forum it makes s*** difficult to read. Dunkley is a primarily an inside midfielder. He's pretty vanilla in that there's not a lot of substance with his style. He's not quick. He's fairly sloppy with his ball use. But saying that he would be regarded as the best contested midfi...

mock draft 2015
Yeah if a club calls them Swans & GWS will need to match with points less a 20% discount. Struggle to see us winning many more this year so we're definitely in the hunt for the kid. Might get interesting if any of the top 5 picks get traded. OK thanks. I was not aware of the exact rule for 'Aca...

mock draft 2015
I've noticed the Pendles comparisons getting around a bit with Balic. He does have that laconic look about him and just like plugger said he looks slow but he isn't. His disposal doesn't look too bad at all, if I had to criticise his kicking it would be that it lacks hurt factor. He tends to chip it...

Re: mock draft 2015
Cheers. Can't say I've heard that comparison but you would have a fair idea seeing him in the flesh a number of times. Was he playing midfield or forward? Well I couldnt think of anyone else at our club because he isn't fast like Jack and he isn't slow like Ross. Last year in the games I saw him he...

Re: mock draft 2015
Interesting to see who backs up their performance from the carnival at TAC level. Looks like Mathieson and Balic were both BOG in their respective games. Mathieson, for mine, is the one not getting the degree of attention he probably deserves but he's two time AA. He's class. Would really love to s...

Re: mock draft 2015
Fwiw Paddy will be the best tall forward from 14/15 draft. Weitering the best tall....clearly and by a mile. Lets face it that's a guess at the moment. Hope you are right though.

Re: mock draft 2015
Weren't we led to believe that there were no good key position players on the horizon? Wasn't that part of the premise to take McCartin instead of Petracca/Brayshaw? Yup, last year it was expected Goddard, Lever, Paddy, Wright, etc would be the first few picked. Most were underwhelming or had serio...

Re: mock draft 2015
Parish will go anywhere between 3-10 IMO. Weitering and Schache definite 1-2, Parish, Francis, Weideman, Curnow, Mathieson, Balic, Ah Chee - in any order. If I had to guess I'd say: Pick 1 - Brisbane - Schache Pick 2 - GC - Weitering Pick 3 - Carlton - Francis Pick 4 - Melb - Curnow Pick 5 - Ess - W...
