Below average in every stat which is a little concerning. 

Yes he can run but no point being an elite runner when you cannot get the ball.

 

Thank goodness..some negativity… always need to highlight his perceived faults as a 21yr old before he actually gets to the club 🤨

Well let's blow smoke up his ad like we have been with ANB and the rest of the average blokes we seem to love

 

So Brisbane have made their moves and now have 32 and 34 and some other junk (43, 45, 60).

We have 28, 40, 49, 54 and 65

I doubt we go backwards but we could just give them all 5 of those picks for 32, 34 and Sharp

Most likely result is we combo 2-3 of the 40/50’s later picks for one of 32 or 34 and Sharp.

We have to keep flexibility for Oliver trades and getting another first round pick in this draft but I do wonder just what pick GWS can’t turn down for a guy they’ve never played (or what offer we can realistically make).

Yes we love ANB.  Drafted with pick 40, turns into an ultimate professional footballer, works on his weaknesses, plays in a premiership, his mum sits in the cheer squad wearing a red wig, stays 10 years, his family comes to the last training session all in Demons gear, and we get pick 28 for him.  Draft another please.

I mean what did Bris get for Joe D - nothing;


 Good pickup if we can make it happen without giving up much, we really lacked in depth this year and this will help address that

Had a read of the Brisbane Bigfooty forum and the overall vibe about Sharp was positive:

  • Reasonably disappointed to see him go
  • Excellent athletically
  • Was said to be dominant in an early season VFL game over Casey which may have piqued our interest
  • MCG will suit his playing style and Langdon could be a good mentor
  • Disposal iffy (but who hasn't got iffy disposal at the MFC)

And some here say comments:

  • Apparently Fullarton and his Dad not are not overly excited about being at the MFC.
  • A certain someone that is no longer on the list will be a positive for the MFC in terms of behavioural and cultural issues. The player was mentioned numerous times on their forum.

No don’t have to do that …let’s just wait till he gets here..although if that’s what you thought of ANB then 🤷

Can't be true as he was the 9th best ranked for the Lions that day

20 touches and a goal.

Quality not quantity??

Who knows, I doubt many of us saw the game.

VFL stats show he was consistent through the year without starring particularly in any certain game.  His stats show a higher kick to handball ratio, offer relating his more outside run and carry role.  Sounds good to provide another link type player. Pick 54 is enough in exchange for Sharp.

Casey will benefit 

He was an emergency for the Lions in this year's GF so around the 25th best player at the Lions will do me.

You are seriously comparing a 29 year old VFL player to the premiership player and life member who just came third in the B&F? You are a fool. 

Think there's enough there to make this a great acquisition. Even if just filling Hunter's spot

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
