From what little I have seen of him, have always liked him and reckon he could be a very good 2nd ruck / forward. Hard to do at North with Petrie and Goldie.

Depending on what the lawyers think of his legal problems, is he worth the risk?

(Out of contract now)

No

Yes and I posted this 2 weeks ago in the 2nd ruck/fwd thread.

No

Why no DD?

As a seat warmer for 2-3 years he'd give more than Dawes.

Did you see him rd 23 game.

I'm not saying you rate Dawes but when most people speak of him I keep hearing : brings it ground, provides a contest.....

Daw can ruck, mark, disposal is ok(it's improved from what it was) and tackle.

I always thought Daw had some promise. Don't think he gets much chance at Arden st. Not sure he's come on as possibly expected.

How many Daws do we want

Doesn't pass the no DH's policy!

Why?

Pending charges?

yes he does; his issues were years ago, when much younger. everyone has to mature from their adolescent's. & he has had bigger issues Re cultural hurdles, that put stress on, than most.

He's an amazing athlete, but I'm not sold on his football. He can do some freakish things, but not frequently enough to justify a game on their own.

far less the DH than Bennell...but everyone wants Harley

( actually i don't think i do )

God no.

Dear imaginary deity, No!

Is that a policy that is similar to the one that saw us pass on Jack "GF specialist" Darling?

That, and hooking up with a team mates (Daniel Pratt) girlfriend.

I don't want to see us waiting out both Melksham's WADA suspension & Daw's jail time.

But you want Colin Sylvia....?

Ok...

But you want Colin Sylvia....?

Ok...

Check what I said in that thread.

Never said I wanted him, said I wouldn't be against him. Bit of a difference.

I mean I'm not against Grand Final Eve being a public holiday. Doesn't mean I think it should have happened.

Is this the same Daw who can't get a game? Yep he'll help us climb the ladder.

He's kicked 6 goals in his career.. He's a good athlete but not a footballer.

Can take a contested mark. (Dawes struggled to take a chest mark)

Can kick reasonably straight. (Dawes might be a bigger kick)

Can cover the ground. (Dawes is a plodder)

Can ruck effectively enough for a decent chop out. (Dawes can't)

No one is suggesting he's a world beater and I don't see him as a long term option but what's our options....Dawes? How much crap did he cop on here during the year. We will be forced to play him due to lack of other options. What if Gawn goes down? Take out Dunn/Jones/Vince all of our talent is 18-23. We need another fwd, our play for Lynch failed. If we draft someone chances are they won't come on like Hogan has. We need someone to warm the seat.

He would come cheap and we could do a lot worse....

His round 23 game showed he has grown a player.

Great over 100. Absolutely spent by 110.

This is a satirical thread, right?

He has kicked 6 goals in one AFL game, name the Demons who have done that?

He has 17 goals from his 16 games, yes no world beater, but does he beat Dawes and Pedo?

Did you watch rd 23 v the Tigers.

He can play.

And before someone says thats one game, some are getting excited about the Melksham highlight package vs the Suns.

James Cook..?

Pedersen will be the man.

I don't get the reference to Lynch? He doesn't ruck, would have played a different role to what Daw would.

I'd rather us go for Daniel Gorringe for more ruck depth if that's why you want Daw. Can ruck, rest forward, unfulfilled talent and would also come cheap. But I'll back Viney & co in on their decision.

James Cook..?

I was going to say Fred Fanning!
