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.

    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.

    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

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
