I'm sick of hearing about Rioli. He is a poor man's Sean Charles in my opinion.....

If Daniher misses out because he "can't kick" I'm afraid Hogan might have to miss for the same reason. Neither Daniher or Hogan are reliable kicks for goal but both get the ball often enough that they can still make this list sooner rather than later. But not yet. 

Granted that Hogan's kicking last year was average. I think history will show that last year was an outlier for Hogan. The whole contract thing seemed to affect him and his confidence.Note that I mentioned him as leading the next crop of forwards (up tp 3 years on the list).

Overall he averages a healthy 62.4% overall which is pretty good compared to Daniher's 55.9%. Daniher's average has barely changed year on year so has little hope of him improving. At least Hogan has shown he can do it and he appears to have significantly fine-tuned his current routine and made a good start on the weekend

I really hope you're speaking with your tongue firmly in your cheek. Otherwise, I suggest you seek help to adjust your rose-coloured glasses.

Yep I reckon the less media attention that Jesse gets the more he will like it. No more $15m dollar man and being touted the best forward in a generation. I'm guessing the lower his profile and the more attention some equally talented team mates get the happier he will be plying his trade. He will always attract a certain amount of media being an insanely talented, contested marking  prodigal freak but think he is content to fly under the radar as much as possible

Not even Sean Charles himself would agree with that statement! Certainly not a serious statement.

Daniher is a far worse kick for goal than Hogan. Hogan will miss a few shots that should be kicked but Daniher is a 60-40 from 15 out directly in front. I'm under no illusions that hogan is a great kick but let's not get to carried away here. Besides that Hogan is a far better player anyway.. he covers the ground far better and is a better reader of the play. He has a better footy brain.

Lynch (GCS)

Franklin

Walker

Betts

Kennedy

Greene

Hogan

Rioli

in no particular order.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
