    With all due respect Saty, I think you are wrong here. Last year against Port in an elimination final he had 34 touches. Then in the next final he had 25, so hardly went missing when the heat was on. Grand Final in 2015 he had 34 also. So I think he has proven that he can stand up in big games. While he is obviously not a brute in the middle like Oliver, he's a different type of player and one we don't really have. I don't believe he is worth any more than $700k a season though, unlike someone like Oliver who in 2-3 years will be easily worth over a mill a season.

    Ideal scenario would be bringing in Gaff, Langdon and Wallis. Vince retires and we move Jones to the half back flank. Best 22 next season: B: Jetta OMac Hibberd HB: Jones Petty Lever ? Gaff Viney Salem HF: Melksham Hogan Neal-Bullen F: Spargo TMac Petracca R: Gawn Oliver Wallis Int: Langdon Lewis Fritsch Brayshaw We win 2019 flag.

    Anyone who doesn't think Gaff should be our main priority does not understand football. We have the inside ball winners covered, we lack outside run at times and this guy is one of the best. Plus anyone saying he isn't a competitor, he's averaging the most in his career so has improved in this area. We should be in the box seat as we can still offer a bit of cash but have the potential success card up our sleeves. Carlton, Saints and even North can't provide that.

    Definitely expected more from him this year. Still think we will be a very good player, but he should shadow Oliver for the remainder of the year and the off season to get himself in the best shape possible. Needs to lean down quite a bit. Also not sure why Brayshaw was played on the wing all day? He has been killing it in the middle and I don't remember seeing him in the starting midfield setup at all in the 2nd half. Strange.

    we could absolutely play McDonald, Petty and Lever down back over the coming years. I would say that will be our preferred option from next year and beyond. With Gawn, Hogan, T McDonald, Lever, Petty and O McDonald we will have the most mobile talls in the competition and have a massive advantage on the rest of the competition.

    I agree with this. But Petracca has been better than De Goey up until this point, yethe is listed at #14. I don't know why I'm even getting worried about this, it is meaningless anyway haha.
  7. DistrACTION Jackson
    What about Petracca?? What about McDonald?? What a joke this list is.
  8. DistrACTION Jackson
    Seems to be a really impressive guy. Will be a big loss this year but I'm sure he will be supporting the team and will likely be providing the defenders with some coaching.
  9. DistrACTION Jackson
    I've got a feeling we will bring in Declan Keilty to have first crack at the Lever role. While the loss will definitely hurt, if he can come in and play a role for the team then we should be able to cover this. Hibberd will be required to step up in the intercept role in Lever's absence.

    Nervous wait until we hear the outcome of the scan! Hopefully only a 3-4 week injury and he could be back after the bye.
  11. DistrACTION Jackson
    I hope the club come out soon to confirm the Lever injury. My anxiety levels have risen...
  12. DistrACTION Jackson
    He will jump ship after their GF loss.... to the team that beat them. There's my prediction.
  13. DistrACTION Jackson
    This thread will now be in overdrive.....

    While I agree with Reiwoldt's views, it seems the media like to choose their narrative and stick with it no matter what. Take the Eagles for example, who granted are playing well, however 7 of their 9 wins are against bottom 10 sides. Also, their two wins against top 8 sides have been at home and one of them was against an injury ravaged Geelong, who were down to one fit man on the bench. Geelong were getting on top that day until they lost those players and then the Eagles ended up running over them. They don't seem to mention this at all.
  15. DistrACTION Jackson
    Look at his backline. All small running backs. The weekly team should be as close to an actual team as possible, so a minimum of two tall backman. Lever should have been in that side without a doubt.
  16. DistrACTION Jackson
    He is a freak. Could go down as one of the greats of the game, and that is not even exaggerating.
  17. DistrACTION Jackson
    Looks like I'll be heading to Etihad for this one
  18. DistrACTION Jackson
    I didn't see that?? Can you send me the photo!

    Fritsch and Hannan compliment our mids perfectly. They are both relatively quick, skilled and can take an overhead mark and are reliable shots on goal. We looked way too slow on the flanks when these guys weren't playing. Can't see Tyson getting back in unless we get an injury to one of our inside mids. What a luxury to have Tyson and Hunt as emergencies! May it continue....

    Probably the best part of the article was this beauty...... don't think this will be happening any time soon sorry Adam.
  21. DistrACTION Jackson
    Agreed. But if a team is inflating their numbers the sponsors will know about it. Plus they would also want to know average game attendance, average TV audience, number of full season members v a few games etc. There would be a lot more to it than just the number a club promotes on its website.
  22. DistrACTION Jackson
    Oliver is 3 years younger. Has an 8% better disposal efficiency and is more damaging with his handballs and more explosive. Oliver without a doubt.
  23. DistrACTION Jackson
    The only thing that really matters at the end of the day is revenue generated from memberships, not the number. Giving out memberships is only patching over the issues, which are deep judging by reports of the Saints finncial performances the last few years.
  24. DistrACTION Jackson
    Why the AFL use a different tribunal each time is confusing? Surely you would you the same people for the entirety of the year to ensure the outcomes are consistent?

    Demonland logic for you..... The grass is always greener
