People only rate him because he came 3rd in the brownlow 2 years ago, however clayton and Max were easily better that year. He's the definition of lazy Quote
Yze_13 310 Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 Brayshaw will be at Freo next year. No surer thing. Question is what we get for him. Quote

Elegt 872 Posted March 20, 2021 Author Posted March 20, 2021 Having Jones on the wing for parts of the game still doesn't feel me with confidence, feel like we still need a few more mids with pace Quote

We need him at centre bounces and on ball, he’s not a wingman. A lot of teams don’t have 2 great wing options. A Harmes/ Brayshaw combination is probably about league average for the 2nd wing. That said I hope we’re on the look out for a mid season draft pick up (then draft, trade, rookie etc - let’s throw multiple assets at this role). Quote
MurDoc516 1,529 Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Kozzie should be a forward pocket who can fill in midfield if needed. Outside mid a must, missing out on Hill, Smith, Phillips in recent years to compliment Langdon is hurting us. I can't for the life of me see why the coaches / administration team think Jones, Brayshaw, Harmes are good enough to stick on a wing. It's all about pace and two way running. 1 Quote

Expand hes OOC - i went to school with him, he told bevo in his exit meeting last year. i want to play back not forward to which bevo said you'll play where i pick ya. he said no i want to play back, bevo said ok but you'll start as our 42nd player ed said no worries and got to work. was playing really well vs collingwood in the vfl game on friday but then broke his leg/ankle and got stretchered off. i have a feeling a lot of clubs will be on the phone given the depth and strength of dogs in that position 2 2 Quote

Still hopping there is some body, we can pick up in the mid season draft, as long as he play from day one, and not play at Cassey for the rest of the year. I'm not to sure but i think i read, that we have two spots left, to use in the mid, season draft, do you or any one else know of any players, that could be worth a punt? Quote

Where they start off is up to the Club but all 3 could play on a wing at some stage or HFF and use Their pace and carry. Move on from Phillips we didn't grade for him or he rejected an offer He is not with us no good keeping on about it. Maybe as I saiD ANB might work as he runs both ways. He is not consistent enough at HFF so we lose nothing by trying him on the wing. Rosman is the best Long term prospect but we have to wait something you are not apparently prepared to do. 1 Quote

I can't for the life of me see why the coaches / administration team think Jones, Brayshaw, Harmes are good enough to stick on a wing. It's all about pace and two way running. Expand Worth a re-run. Couldn't agree more on both fronts. Kozzie should be blooded as a mostly small forward goal sneak specialist. That's where we'll gain the most from him with the occasional "Cyril" type cameo through the middle where he will be handy in short stints. Certainly a star in the making here regardless. The other wing is a real worry. I would personally trial Hunt here for a few matches. Outside of that we are lacking a genuine option with some toe and a genuine tank. I thought Hannan might have been the answer but lacked the latter and was too often injured. Thomo on occasions can hold his own but on the wide open spaces of the G we need someone with some toe and class by foot coming inside. Is Rivers an option at some stage once he builds a tank with another pre-season or two? Edited March 21, 2021 by Rusty Nails Quote
Pickett2Jackson 3,904 Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 Why don't we try Toby Bedford on the wing? He has a huge tank, hes quick and his form has been good at Casey. Quote

There is a squeeze at the dogs for those types of players. Vandermeer is also one of Clarry's best mates as they grew up together in Mooroopna. 1 Quote
