Future first trading is frought with danger. You are effectively gambling on your own performances. If we trade our future first, consider it admission of tanking this year. This is incorrect. If we trade our future pick, we ain't wanting to tank next year, it's the opposite. We would think we woul...

Pretty fair for a 19 yr old

Just remember, if his birthday was a few days later, he would have been the #1 draft pick last year

I hear Anthony Steven’s son is a tall marking key forward.

does he look like carey?

He is looking a step slow, dropping the marks he should take, taking the wrong options. Hope he finds it, as he is important and one of my favourites.

He can find it in the seconds. Cooper must play and leave him deep forward.

Take an A Grader out of the ruck and bring in a D Grader And put Marshall forward where he’s average at best Next Wouldn't expect you to understand. Campbell is a great match up for the Big O. Our forward line is struggling to win 1 on 1 marking contests. If it isn't working you sub Campbell off an...

Rowan is an eite ruckman He was in the AA squad last season, has been runner Up in the B&F both seasons he played solely in the ruck. Just last week he had 28 and 11 tackles as a ruckman!! You want him ‘released’ into a position he is very average at - he is a BOG average forward. While Ned Moy...

We have the worst and slowest midfield in the league. Dow gives us some speed and we loose Windy to tagging. Should be winning his own ball. Fix this and we will improve. Our backs are serviceable, and we need another tall forward that is good that can take the pressure away from King. Sharman/Membr...

Waterman, the new version of the G-Train (W-Train) is going to tear us a new one.
We need to get into his ear.

yes

B: Battle Howard Webster
HB: Sinclair Wilkie Wanganeen-Milera
C: Hill Windhager Wood
HF: Wilson King Henry
F: Higgins Sharman Butler
R: Marshall Steele Dow
B: Owens Stocker Crouch Cordy

Butler says hello to everyone.

This year, Howard has not been beaten in a 1v1 defensive contest. Cordy has a 20% loss rate, which is good but not 'premiership full back' good. Interestingly Howard has not had a handball this year. Turnovers in favour of Cordy, disposal efficiency in favour of Howard. https://i.imgur.com/mkFhIBD....

Do posters on this site believe Dow is best 22? I don't rate Dow highly, however assume he gets a run when fit due to the Crouch injury and our lack of midfield quality. If we can recruit/ draft some midfield talent I think he becomes depth. He is a midfield burst player that we dont have. Yes best...

He plays the hardest position on the field. He is not a focal point and our game style doesn't reward spread and not in the right spots for turnover. Either needs a tank and go genuine mid or get stronger for forward.

Shiel at his best was a jet. He is the type of mid we are lacking. I'll back Ross to get him back near his best, if not his best and get 2 or maybe 3 good years out of him. If the rumours are true, that Essendon are willing to offer Gresham enough to trigger a 1st round compo for us (supposedly pic...

End of second round Compo (pick 37-40)

That won’t get it done with Henry- they will want our FRDP

Cant let Gresh walk for that.
I would match whatever they bid on and force a trade unless its 700k+

Is Hill an elite A grade player?....I say yes on his performances this year. IMO Brad was taking the piss in the last couple of years. He was not running fit like he is now. Power running is his one wood, and when he didn’t have it, he was ordinary. As much as you despise RTB, you’d have to agree B...

just need to beat richmond to finish 8th.
My predictor says we play carlton first week of finals if we do.

kicking straight was the only reason we were in the game. Up until 3qtr, our talls were strong in the contest and were marking most 50/50 balls their way. Carltank knew this and countered it. Unfortunately, we were smashed in contested ball and on the spread and they always had momentum after our fl...
