I love Battle but geez, his two misses have been shockers.
Game would be all over if he nails those two.

Carlisle should get the job done. He is a good match up for Casboult.

Re: Team vs Magpies
Match-ups?
For mine:
Wilkie takes de Goey
Paton on Stephenson
Carlisle on Cameron
Howard on Mihocek (maybe swap with Carlisle?)
Ben Long to Jamie Eliot
Would not mind having Geary for Jamie Eliot to be honest..

Is Jonno Marsh the new Jake Stringer?
Yes, I realise it is a stretch, but the Marsh is looking like a beast and very Jake Stringer like in his speed and power. That play on Thursday when he kicked to Marshall had Stringer (at his best) written all over it. I remember 3-4 years ago there was some fun banter on here about Tim Membrey bein...

Re: Ben Long in defence, Jono Marsh Fwd
Lining up "Bennelong" on the HB flank is reminiscent of Justin Peckett, a player who made that spot his own with great distinction from the early '90's to 2006 - I think Frankie was more BP and then wing One of Peckett's major talent was that he was a superb judge of when to run into spac...

Re: Do you honestly think bringing in 5 traded players was the right move?
time will tell. True that we gave up pick 6 and a range of lower order picks, but Howard and Jones have the majority of their careers ahead of them and Hill has 5 good years left in him, we hope... Butler and Ryder were low picks and probably good value So... looks like a good trade period yes and b...

He must be good because we passed up using his pick to secure Biggy when league premiers Richmond wanted Biggy.

At pick 54 we needed to match 220 points We would get 197 points from the discount so would need an extra 23 points to have taken Biggy away from Richmond. Pick 71 would have delivered that many points (29 points). Now pick 51 actually became pick 52 on the night so AT THAT TIME pick 76 and 82 woul...

Re: All in 5 good acquisitions at a reasonable trade cost
We got all 5 and kept next year's first.
That seemed to be the objective.
We were always going to lose. 6.
Acres seems to have been a salary dump not rated best 22 by Ratten

In the equation for compo picks, Newnes has age on his side. Would be great for us if we got a second rounder for him. I hope someone wants him! we may have done well offering him 2 years.. if he goes, he will want 3 years.. so alongside his age we should get some ok compo (I wonder if Lethlean know...

If we really are trading Bruce then:
5+55 for Hill +24
then
bruce+24 for 12+50s pick
so basically downgrade 5 to 12 but change Bruce for Hill

We need to let him go if that is what he wants, with no hard feelings. He is a legend at the club IMO but clearly has some personal issues.
