Further evidence of what I say about Coaches. Ross coaches well with a good team, not so well with poor teams. Pretty much like every coach. The great A Clarkson is the best ever Coach right now coaching a mediocre side to mediocre results. Imagine if he had mediocre sides, rather than the list of g...

Just as likely to get a 30 000 seat stadium at Queenstown oval

There is a difference between A Grade and elite, which is the upper echelon of the league in a certain position

Million dollar platers!

Most teams have Multiple A Graders who are generally on 600 to 800

I think he needs to keep getting fitter, and stronger

Could be anything from Farren Ray to Steele Sidebottom.

Always stand up for your convictions

That’s how you earn respect

If the AFL lack integrity and purposefully make life difficult by being unfair, call that out too.

I’m all for sticking it to the man, if it’s warranted/deserved

There may have been a few greater players play at the Saints But he is easily the greatest saint. 383 games of sustained excellence over three decades At the peak of his career he won the aflpa (Leigh Matthews) trophy ahead of Wayne Carey, Michael Voss, James Hird, Nathan Buckley, Chris Grant, Darre...

Ideal
Anderson

Second choice
Kemp

He doesn’t play Key Forward, he’s not a marking target down the line. That’s what a Key Fwd does. Membrey and Bruce play this role. He plays as A high half Forward. I see you raised his size, so you are seduced by attributes, but not his output. If attributes were all it takes, Jake Stringer, Rhys S...

I love it how everyone thinks it’s only the coach, and if we have a new coach all of a sudden our list with very few fit A Graders (if any) are going to start winning games of footy. AR is part of the problem, not the only problem. But I think people think he IS the problem and without him, we would...

If Marshall is spending less time in the ruck because we are giving minutes to a 32yo I’ll fair dinkum lose it. Sharing ruck, wtf Why would he have to share the ruck, when he is learning so much shouldering the load. All he needs is a chop out 7-8 mins per quarter Two ruckmen... only WCE do that and...

600-800 will get you an A Grader. North payed overs a bit for Polec, like we did for Dan, because of the massive room both teams have spare in their TPP. Put that in perspective, I am pretty certain Carlisle and Steven are on around 600-650 and are only behind Hannebury as our highest paid players. ...

The fact that this was swept under the rug was a disgrace. We should have made more noise about it when it happened, and continued to make public noise until it was admitted. For them to get away with that is disgusting. As was the suspension of Steven Baker, who with no clear footage and supporting...

Dud, you overrate Acres massively. Firstly, he’s not a great kick, so how his possessions are worth two of other players, surely you jest. Can he kick the ball 90m. He kicks floaters, and no one know wtf he is going to do with the footy. If he’s only getting it 15 times and his opponent was getting ...

Wouldn’t pay 1.4 for him. I’d pay 2 good players 750k Maybe Jack Martin, maybe Zac Jones I like the look of Caldwell and Cerra to, would offer them overs and a long term deal to shake them out from their clubs although with B Hill coming back to Melb, perhaps Freo could match an offer to Cerra, and ...

Remember Jack Steven and Dan Hannebery are not playing. Someone has to play through the middle, Ross, Steele, Dunstan can’t spend 120mins in there, and really shouldn’t be in the together anyway. Who else do you suggest, and if you say Acres or Sinclair you’d be joking. They are struggling at moment...

So Barry, you’d take Marshall out of the Ruck, a position he’ll win the b&f in and put a 32yo Goldstein?

Goldstein comes, he plays two unless Marshall is Injured

Next year we need to get games into King, as he like Marshall needs to get to 50asap

Clarkevneeded to play some twos footy, nothing wrong with that, it’s also good for development. He played inside mid at Sandy and would have learned a lot, like how to win the footy inside the contest. Good thing is, he looks a class above at VFL level which is what you want to see. Will be a 200 ga...

Thought Gresham battled hard last night, surged the footy forward and put his nose over it a bit

Yes, his disposal was average, that’s because he’s a poor kick, and he holds onto the footy too long, inviting pressure too often

If we take Marshall out of the ruck, or even minutes off him as a ruckman, I will f***ing lose it.

We need him to get to a 50 game RUCKMAN as soon as possible

In 2021 he will be our best player

Dud, It was his second year in the system, he was 22 which is young for a 200cm And when he was recruited from Nth Ballarat he played CHB/CHF mainly Last year as a ruckman he was behind Longer who’s older, stronger, heavier, more experienced but admittedly useless. Hickey who was dominating when at ...

We are going to get a worse run now, if that’s possible?! Bit like GTs leave their ego in their locker comment But I like the fact he called them out, he’ll get a please explain, he should stand his ground and say, well someone explain the last two weeks umpiring. It also says he doesn’t care anymor...

Why do you need two number 1 ruckmen? Unless Marshall plays forward (mistake) they cannot play in the same team?! Even if they do, do you want Marshall on the pine more than now? I don’t! Marshall is our best prospect since Jack Steven imo, why would you take him away from the position he’s flourish...

Very optimistic

I think we need to go back to the drawing board

He was very good tonight

He’s a battler, has a crack but he’s GOP.

One paced slow 6 foot inside mid, with poor endurance and average disposal.

Good serviceable player in a poor team, wouldn’t get a game at a top club.

Poor mans Greg Burns
