Re: Josh Bruce keen to be traded to the Saints

I have seen him play one game (admittedly against Melbourne), but he is hugely impressive. Tall, strong, athletic, tough in the contest, great mark and big kick. Perfect pick up for us. A long term player, that will need to be developed. Could be centre half back for the next flag tilt in 5 years + ...

Re: Draft Question - the Tom Boyd Scenario

I don't think a key forward is a huge need. If he slips to us, take him as he's a clear number one. GWS will either take him or trade their number 1 pick for an experienced player. The bigger worry is the AFL giving Melbourne a compensation pick for being so pathetic, which will mean we get the four...

According to Barrett

According to Barrett on the footy show we are the ones chasing Frawley the hardest. Interesting to see if anything comes from it.

Re: Captain J. Geary 2014?

I may be wrong, but isn't the system under Watters that the players vote for who will be made captain? If thats the case I cant really see them not voting for Nick next year again, just because of the respect he has at the club

screwed by west coast again

Article in the age about Harry Taylor being out of contract and may want to return home to perth at the end of the year. Still up in the air, all depends on what Taylor wants to do. Article states that west coast and geelong will come to a trade for Taylor and Brown if this is the case. Im sure we c...

Re: Westaway speaks!

He actually calls our club weak. Collingwood and Hawthorn and the like didn't become the powerful clubs they are by whinging and complaining about unfair deals and wanting more money from the AFL for nothing. This pre-season has been very positive from the club, we'd moved on from Goddard and seemed...

Watters comments on Wright on SEN

Interesting, he was asked to name two players he thought would be supercoach smokies for us and he said Lee which is not suprising. But he also said Wright, so I guess that means he see's him playing a lot of senior football this year. He also talked about how mature he is for his age earlier in the...

Re: Elite. Below average and poor

If it ranks them for there position, it's ludicrous to say milne isn't in the elite. All australian forward pocket for the last 2 years.... also Jarrod Waite and Nathan Bock are listed as elite forwards, come on

Emma Quayles Draft Guide

In her guide she says we are one of only a couple of clubs seriously considering Dayle Garlett, the other being Collingwood who could take him before us if they choose. Would be a good risk in my opinion, top ten on talent, skillful, fast midfielder, great linebreaker. A lot of people have disciplin...

Re: Trent Dennis - Lane

I remember a final a couple of years ago when he tore Carlton up in the last quarter. Including the game winning goal from the boundary line. Dont see why not for a late pick. He can play, just Jetta took his spot in Sydney.

How good is Hicky actually?

I've read a lot of conflicting reports on him. Alot of people on here think he aint that great and isn't worth anything less then our third round pick. But I've also read stuff in the media saying he is extremely talented and the sky's the limit with his potential and the gold coast are shattered to...

Re: Timing of compensation pick

Very confused about something, if we only find out after the trade and free agency period what compensation we get for Goddard then we can't use it to get anyone else. Say we get pick 13 and like everyone says we will use it to try and get someone like Caddy. Isn't the trade period over when we get...

Thank god for that!

I think bakes has a pretty good chance of getting of now, I dont think that they would appeal just for the hell of it, they must be pretty confident and have a good case for appeal.
