OK, it's only a still photo but jeez he reminds me of Dusty Martin. Minus tatts.

Yep, Dustin Martin minus the bogan redneck gene.

He would be ready to go if a game was played tomorrow. I think his stats are now ht:188cm, wt:90kg, that's impressive any way you look at it.

Do we go for skill and pace, or do we go for mongrel, tenacity, etc...? Either way we cannot lose. What type we draft this year, we will make a priority to draft the other type next year. Throw in Pederson to cover the loss of Rivers, our KPP's are looking well stocked.

All we would need to worry about would be midfielders and possibly another ruckman.

I'd be happy with the bogan redneck in our team!

Pics can be deceiving I remember one a few years back when watts looked huge. Having said all that pretty happy to get this Young bloke pick 4 looks to be a pretty handy one this year as 2 - 5 all appear to be pretty handy.

What do we do if GWS take;

Whitfield

Toumpas

Wines

Do we take Grundy even though we need a midfielder?

If our guys believe he is the best player available when it is our pick then take him.He's 202cm tall and the new ruck rule will suit him to a tee.

He needs a solid, uninterrupted, pre season, if you recall he was running laps with the rehab group for much of the last pre season and didn't get in to the main bunch until very late in the process.

I think he will be very good and I don't think we've seen anywhere the best so far; the difference between him and Gys is that he wants to do the hard yards and Gys doesn't appear to. I hope that Gys will stay and start to get his act together because he could be a valuable member of the side.

I agree he needs a run at it, but nothing tells me he works harder than Gys, apart from Gys being generally unfit and injured this season. Gys gets pin holes now because he was unfit when drfated and not worked on by bailey. I dont know what tappy has done to suggest he is one of the harder trainers at the club?

I hope Tappy can be a Chappy type player and Gysberts a Hayes or pendlebury, my only point being that one is bigger and slips under the radar, the other skinny and was simply unfit under a [censored] FD and is pin hoeld as not owrking hard enough, when it is a system he is brought up and taught within which dictates this to an extent.

Yes i think Gys has the talent, i just dont think we can say he doenst want it, like man yseem to, he has been unfit and injured, which makes it hard to step forward under the new regime.

you can surely have mongrel in you without being a bogan mate, it's hardly hollier than thou

I have "bought in" to the Wines/Viney partnership and I am invested emotionally in this duo eventuating.

I will actually be very sad if Wines gets taken before our pick. In my mind it's Viney with his mate kicking arse for us for a decade. Please nobody take him!

Take that photo of him with his muscles down. Stop promoting him let's keep this under wraps!

Wines is too short. Jeremy Howe will jump straight over him and land on his face , maybe O Rourke or Grundy are better options?

Didn't someone just say he was 188cm. That would make him tall for a mid.

I've heard that rumour too - that GWS will skip Grundy and take Whitfield, Toumpas and Wines.

I'd be surprised if they did not select a possible top ruckman in Grundy, even though they recently re-signed Giles. They seem short of quality and quantity in the ruck division atm.

I heard Tappy has a WoW tatt...

Gee, he must really love World of Warcraft ;-)

martin got his tatts after the ND (I think) so there is still time

Or O'Rourke

Without knowing little about them, I hope not. Based solely on the photos of each I hope we don't take O'Rourke, looks like another Cale Morton waiting to happen. Wiens would suit us to a tee, hopefully GWS take Grundy so we get the choice of Toumpas or Wines.

agreed, if we dont get Toumpas or Wines i'll be disapointed and perplexed.......im talking Lucas Cook perplexed

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
