Agree with your synopsis, the plus to me is that we may now have a coach who is not overly loyal to a few players and may not be afraid to make changes during a match, should things not work to his liking. Some players may get an extended run of games to prove themselves rather than come in for 1 or 2 games as the sub and them dumped the following week never to be seen again during the season. Not expecting finals next year, but an improvement on the 6 close losses in season 2025, which Petracca and Oliver both played in, and Kossie playing in the first round, next season may make next season worth watching. We may finish in the middle bracket next year, here's hoping. Just my opinion.

Need to chuck in 2027 MFC 1st, suns will ask for the 2028 1st round as well, are we prepared for that. Suns 2026 1st rounder will probably be pick 15 after more academy kids are bid on.

King came to the club with a no DH policy, didn't want Oliver, but wanted to keep Petracca.

what a waste of the last 2 pages !

Thought this thread was about training, start your own thread about Culley

Looks like we most probably have pick 33, if you follow Cal Twomey's phantom, which would leave us the 3rd pick on the second night of the draft. We may have these names left on the draft board, according to Cal, Greeves, Hibbin Hargreaves, Phillipou, Loudowyke, Leray, Onely, BOB and to many others to mention. Thoughts on who else may be left. Without Sinemma being nominated, we also now have a vacant rookie spot, maybe for a train on player, or does pick 63 (late 50's) come into play!

Neither does Gryan Miers !

Has anyone heard anything about Toby recently, the silence seems to be deafening. Maybe we may pass on him after the ND, and see what is left over for rookying in his reserved spot?

Think the media pays more!

Isn't Pickett 19 years old, turned 19 in August 2025

Can't see a bid for white until after the 40's, not on any phantom draft I've seen, needs 2 years in a gym before he comes good, anyone bidding on White early may worry that they'll get him.

Why would you do that !, if JT wants those 2 he will use 7/8 on them

Why would we turn 3 picks into 4 when we don't have room on the list, we only have 5 vacancies, including rookie drafting of White and Sinemma, which leaves us with only 3 picks in the ND
