The future of our forward line

At the moment it looks as though (even though i hate to say it) davey will spend a lot of his future in the midfield

also, i am expecting the retirments/delistings of neitz, robbo and yze at the end of this year which will allow youth to spend time in the forward line

FF: i would like to see Bate at FF, this will surprise people, and i may cop critisism for it, but somehow, i can see him becoming a legendary full forward

FP: marric should be a great crumber in the pocket

FP: AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE...enough said

i would love to have two crumbers in the forward line alongside the full forward

HFF: Pettard, love the kid, love him in the forward line and not the backline

CHF: Paul Johnson (if he does not work out as a ruck) or the Juice Newton if he gets his act togethor

HFF: Stefin Martin/Zomer...lets hope that they develop well with our two developmental coaches

all of these people are young and i can see in the future premiership side if they get their act togethor

    No disrespect Nugget but you have got the rosiest of rose coloured glasses on. If Yze Magic decides to sub-contract out his previews, you should put your hand up for the gig. 'Twould make very positive reading.

    Forward line isnt looking great when big Neita retires. Hopefully we draft a good sized forward in the upcoming draft to play FF or CHF. Will still be years off it though. Newton to play as either FF or CHF depending on others.

    Maric to fill the crumber role. Bate and Sylvia to lead off the flanks and push into the midfield.

    Doesnt look great when compareed to say the Hawks forward line of Buddy, Roughead, Boyle, Rioli, Williams etc

    apart from buddy, who is a once in a lifetime draftee, i think our forward line that you have just gone through isnt that bad, and wont be that bad if there is good development and good delivery from the midfield

    I don't think we have anyone that can even kick from outside fifty, and thats where we seem to feeding our forwards

    Bate and Dunn both can, which is why I want one of the two to play CHF.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
