But there are a lot of posters who seem to think that the 19 yr old Baker is going to fix our outside run problem. Or that Keilty would come in and do a better job then Oscar McDonald who a 'woeful footballer'. I think when supporters see Kent kick a few or Vanders lay a dozen tackles that they would immediately come in and make an impact at AFL level. Both of those guys aren't AFL match fit. Goodwin mentioned in a press conference last week that AVB was a month away with him needing to build form and fitness at VFL level. 2 Quote
Young Blood 2,642 Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Harmes will play this weekend I reckon. I think he'd be one of our toughest players alongside Viney, Nev, Oliver, Hibbo and Brayshaw. Edited July 23, 2018 by Yung Blood 1 Quote

Absolutely he tries hard. He has half a game really ( kinda fits us perfectly come to think of it ) Irony...he's all defence...not much chop for a small fwd . 1 Quote
Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,800 Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Still think we need extra height I think Pedersen gives us versatility and I like his reliable clunking So a small needs to come out, if not JKH then it has to be Jeffy for mine and push JKH deep forward Quote

What 18,810 Posted July 23, 2018 Author Posted July 23, 2018 We play Adelaide Oval really well. Probably as well as we play Etihad. We flogged the Crows there by 8 goals last season, and beat both Port and the Crows there in 2016. Should have rolled Port a few weeks ago but didn't take our chances. Quote
Demons11 7,151 Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 I say no change unlesss we need an extra key back in Pedo. We were so good for so long on Saturday which gets lost a bit due to the gut wrenching way we lost 5 Quote
junk 342 Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Above average Vfl players get games over average Vfl players but when those better Vfl players get their chance and constantly fail then you have to then rely on the average Vfl players and hope that somebody can step up. Don't be surprised an average player in Baker gets a game. Quote

I liked him. Still do. He's a hungry young man. Expand I agree with those things. I liked him too. And was excited for what he could be. But he wasn't an elite talent nor an established AFL player. And with his actual stats, those big marks and goals were remembered were actually not that frequent. He is tough, physical, competitive and had potential, so I hope he can make it back. I just think that we're remembering his output fondly based on nostalgia and our overall terrible performance at the time, and rating current players low because their weaknesses are currently exposed. Will we be happy with 12 possessions from VDB? Because we aren't happy with 15-20 from Pettracca, nor 15 and 2 goals from ANB... 1 Quote
