You'd have to have a look at Stokes, talented forward and is still only 24ish I think.

Also as much of a gump as he may be, Blake would be our best ruckman and is still only 24ish as well.

That being said, maybe just hope someone makes it to the PSD.

Don't we have enough rucks?

Depends how you define it, I think our ruck division is seriously wanting at the moment. Not that Blake is really all that great, worth taking at the right price.

Blake, maybe.

i would prefer to continue with our crop of ruckman...ie., spencer and meesen are still developing...plus I don't rate blake...and can't see what blake will give us that jamar doesn't already give us...that said..i don't like jamar either...

Posted (edited)

I am no wrap for Jamar but he is much better player than Blake.

Blake is terrible & I am yet to meet a Geelong supporter who thinks otherwise.

If we were to go for any of their rucks I'd have my eye on Mumford.

I rate Gamble, I doubt we are in the market for another inbetween sized forward though.

Stokes will stay.

If Simon Hogan was available I'd be keen.

How about Ryan Gamble?

I thnik gamble is a good player, takes a good grab for his height but a 184cm forward is prob not top of our list, but would take him for a 2nd/3rd round pick (not 18) + Newton

Gamble wont be traded , thomson said a while ago

Jamar's a better ruckman than Blake. He'd be comfortably second though, sadly. I don't rate the guy.

No interest at all in the others. Especially not David Johnson, they're kidding right? I laughed out loud when I saw that.

Nah, no interest for us I would have thought.

And theyre kidding themselves if they think theyll get anything worthwhile for Tenace.

wasnt he offered a place at bombers but refused?

Yeah. But when was that? At the end of 2007 I think.

He's played just 6 games since.

He'll probably land somewhere. But Geelong wont get much if anything for him.

was last year wasnt it but they took Prismall instead

D Johnson wont get anything, been there 7 years hasnt even played a finals match and is very injury prone

Even if Geelong were prepared to trade Blake I wouldn't want to go near him simply because he seems like an absolute $hit bloke. Carried on like the biggest sook when he was dropped from 07 GF, then held the club to ransom over Steven King. Contrast that with the class that Wojo and now Stokes have shown in the same scenario (except that both of them are actually worthy of playing in a premiership) and add in the complete lack of class Blake has shown in saying it was nice to stick it up Kings arse on Saturday, and I wouldn;t want this nob anywhere near MFC.

Geelong are going ok if that list represents the talent they have to shed for salary cap purposes. No loss, with the exception of Wocjinski and the retiring Harley.

Good to know even the best teams have rejects!

But where does that leave Miller, Newts and Co? :blink:

Local footy?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
