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 🤨

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;

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

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.

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.

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
