PREGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Clarry is currently having more impact on games and actually had 3 less clangers than Viney on Friday but double the disposals!

You would drop Oliver before Viney? 🤯

Plus Lindsay rolling through there

New coach prospects
Hinkley would have to be leading given he's already leaving end of year.... He may step aside early if they lose a few more. Goody and Voss it's really who has more losses first!

I don't think it's disposal, he's pretty solid in that area. He just has zero leg speed. Would prefer him to Viney atm though easily

PREGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Fair point. Though there are plenty of sides who have picked up mature age rookies late or in the mid-season draft and played them immediately. I think he is good enough to have a long term best 23 spot, I'm more referring to that he is still learning the team systems etc.

I'm sure he is, but hopefully we are right in the fight because we just have to replenish the list and cutting everyone and sitting at the bottom for 5 years is not a good strategy anymore.

It sounds like he’s leaving and obviously Derksen we liked last year. Maybe we will go for both this off season.

PREGAME: Rd 05 vs Essendon
Agreed. Let’s not forget he only got a spot a few weeks before the season started, he’s trying to play afl level footy without even doing a full pre season with the side. He’s 100% worth persisting with in the small forward role.

I think we need to go hard at some players with talent at other clubs who can’t get a go due to positional strength. We need them to come in and have the ability to impact straight away, I don’t want to languish back down the bottom again! For example, Leek Aleer was pick 15 in 2021 but can’t get a go at the Giants. At 23 he’s about to enter a great age for key position players and has extraordinary athletic ability. I’m sure there are plenty more out there we can target, but if we get White and Sinnema through the draft we are still rebuilding with youth while trying to stay relevant! The Giants have a ridiculous amount of depth. We need to raid as much as we can.

Any chance we give Sestan a go so we can move Rivers back into the middle?

Harvey Langford Rising Star nomination Rd 3
He is a baby Bont… his goal was all class

Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026
That’s the way I see it as well

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
Correct. Imagine if that Was the pick we gave up for Houston… would be a disaster.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
Just sick of people going on about the first round pick without mentioning who we got for it. Lindsay was genuinely The best performed draftee the first two weeks, better than Ashcroft, lalor, O’Sullivan, Draper… all top 5 picks. He’s an absolute jet and I’m Glad we got him.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
Maybe goody should go, but Selwyn Griffiths should absolutely go! We’ve gone backwards at a rate of knots since he took over from Burgess.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Geelong
That pick is Lindsay you absolute fl@g of a supporter…. Would rather him at this stage. Maybe learn about what the pick was traded for you peanut brain

CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
Great work by Mentha there! Burst through the stoppage to create that goal
-
CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
Casey show more fight when someone cops a big hit than our AFL guys... Petracca would've given him a high five a wished him well

JVR job security in danger?

CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
There's a chance Sestan could be an AFL level defender. He nails laser kicks, just not sure what his actual defending is like
-
CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
Wish I could've watched that goal....

CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
Great mark by Adams
-
CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
Was having a bit of a laugh... wasn't a terrible kick. A little bit loopy though so gave the defender a chance. Also a dangerous spot. I do like what I see from Sestan though, something to work with at half back.

CASEY: Rd 03 vs Geelong VFL
That's what I was referring to... it was like it was a free kick for being too strong in a marking contest. Weird.
