Re: Rookie Ruckman We Are Into

That plays first ruck Harry Boyd, if he does come to Moorabbin, is not expected to play first ruck. He could be like Mark Blicavs (198 cm) or Hayden McLean (197 cm) who both play ruck/forward for Geelong and Sydney respectively. The club will be hoping that in a couple of years time Max Heath will ...

Re: Rookie Ruckman We Are Into

Into a SANFL ruckman Harry Boyd hailing from Shepparton VIC. Stated we are potentially going to be drafting him for the rookie draft. https://www.zerohanger.com/sanfl-star-set-for-afl-opportunity-156762/ He would be the slowest AFL footballer in the country, nick named 'iceberg'.

Re: Jack Carroll

Who cares where he comes from if he turns into a decent player! My concern is he has had 4 years on their list without consolidating, lets hope he is a slow burner and becomes a player.

Re: Land of the giants midfield

Midfield size is great if they can use it to find the ball and run. Getting all 3 is very difficult but there are a few players in this draft that fit the bill, Smillie, Langford, Allan, Marshall, Davis, Hynes, Ough, Johnson. Smaller players are usually better and cleaner at ground level excluding C...

Re: Women's AFL

They have 6 decent players the rest are rubbish. Of the 6 a lot have missed games through injury and there is no depth. Trying to run the women's team on a shoe string and it shows onfield.

His defensive game cant be any worse than Bonners thats for sure. I havent seen ...

Re: Paton, Hayes, Hotton delisted

No surprise? Never really understood why Ollie was recruited; almost no one recovers from a broken leg, brave try though Ben, tragic; Hayes was always too good to be true, great ability but body found AFL rigors too much, wish we got him young. I thought Hotton looked great in his draft vids. He wa...

Re: zerohanger

I didn't know Bonner was delisted. 19 games then dumped. Yes ordinary by foot. Bad decisions etc. He was given a lot of game time. Thought would have been useful as a backup as we have made lots of changes already and don't have many draft selections ( is it 4) Are we going to be that active in the...

Re: 204cm WAFL Ruckman

A. He has to nominate for and taken in a draft as he hasnt been on an AFL list previously. Hence the media highlighting our interest is not great if we wanted to grab him late. Geelong have also shown interest and have pick #45. Plenty of other clubs are also looking for ruckman, so dont hold your b...

Re: Ethan Phillips

He had a medical with the club yesterday. I dont know a lot about him other than watching his highlight vids, he is a good intercept marker, not quick but reads the ball in the air well. I think Id prefer Tomlinson at CHB but Phillips being younger might be the way we go. It just feels like we are c...

Re: Keep Hayes

I raised the idea of playing Hayes in defence earlier in the year, but he has just had set back after set back. I dont know why Collingwood baulked after his medical, if thats the case then he may still have injuy concerns. He is not quick but is a smart player, he may be better suited to playing th...

Re: Zebras alliance

The lack of talent put up by Sandringham really highlights just how poor this alignment is for our club. There is NOT one Sandringham player worthy of being placed on an AFL list, their supplementary list is woeful. The problem is obviously a lack of finances by both clubs but the Saints simply have...

Hawthorn are now my most hated team. The amount of high tackles they drive into for frees is disgraceful, and the umpiring tonight was that biased against Port it was corrupt.

Re: Jack McCrae

I'm pretty confident McRae will be at the club next year. I am also confident he has plenty of good footy ahead of him, given the opportunity to play midfield minutes. If he gets a decent preseason he will be invaluable to the team until our kids can take the mantle.

Re: Sydney vs GWS qualifying final

GWS ran out of legs in the last 15 minutes of the game when the Sydney midfielders took over. Its the Giants weakness the lack of run through the midfield Green, Ward, Coniglio are slow and dont run out games well. Toby Green has had the worst year of his career he is no where near it this year.
