wish they would start releasing the delisted names.

Will be shocked if Tapscott is redrafted as a rookie . IMO the benefit of a mature rookie is that he is fit and playing consistent football in the 2nds just waiting for a long term injury. Tappy is always injured or coming back from an injury and I would be shocked if he has ever strung 8 - 10 weeks in a row of training and playing.

 

I know Sam Blease was told when he came back into the side a few weeks ago that it was his last chance and he needs to show something, I can only assume he will be delisted or traded because of his inability to lock down a spot in the leagues weakest side.

 

Any delistings yet?

Not til after the B and F....I would think....

Bleases mentality isn't too different to a track sprinter.
He has no idea how to play as a team and he has a big ego.

The problem with Sam's ego, is that he isn't as quick as he thinks he is.

Because of this, alot of his attempts at scoring and involvement in play result in him trying to be a one man team.

Too often he tries to burn off his opponent, and either gets run down or allows the opponent to effect his disposal to the extent that it becomes a turn over or a missed shot on goal.

Too often sam ignores open option and takes the kick himself from 50, where he had pass options at 20 and 30 meters out.

I could see that he once had potential, but its too late.

Plus, kent has all of sams skills minus a tad bit of sams pace, but kent has the team factor.


It has started

Nicholson and clisby told their services no longer needed.

I don't see Watts as an effective full forward in this team. He is not a contested marking beast and our disposal upfield is not good enough to utilise his talents.

I see Watts as a Jack Gunston type of player who will be a great converter when he can find space in the forward line and guys up the ground can actually hit him with a pass. Hogan and Watts could be a dangerous combination but our midfield will need to improve to allow this.

I'm not sure how Roos sees Watts but I suspect his trajectory would be similar to Gunston's in a decent side. He only needs a couple of shots at goal a week to be really dangerous. But putting him deep forward would be no value to either him or the side right now.

Or perhaps Radar Detector is actually THE G Lyon?


Seems an age ago this thread - but we discuss it every year.

Hopefully, Watts settles it positively in 2015.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
