  1. It was funny, the first highlight reel stopped the highlight shot when the kick was in mid air. I was thinking that was he going to be like Moloney and just bomb the ball without any accuracy. Then the AFL released a highlight reel where it showed where his kicks were landing and most of them hit a target. That made my more comfortable selecting him at #3.
  2. Probably year after. Don't think Weideman will play next year's QB.
  3. So when Oliver is selected tonight, you going to give yourself a jolly good flogging or three.
  4. Olisik on draft when Oliver is named pick number 3
  5. Hasn't Goodwin spent some time down at the Geelong Falcons watching and talking to Parish??
  6. Don't agree with two KPPs. Unless there something in the pipeline next off season (Prestia)
  7. Wasn't it said before that Goodwin has been at a few of Parish's games even talking to him during the game breaks. If true, pretty obvious who pick 3 will be.
  8. Hopefully Toumpas?
  9. Only because I can't remember, was Luke Hodge a late bloomer?
  10. Not a big fish. Not 'Something Massive'
  11. Please explain trade theory.
  12. I doubt it, but it would be funny to get Josh Kelly.
  13. With the way we deliver the ball into the 50 he has a very, very good chance.
  14. Good to see Jesse in the team of the week.
  15. Garland seems to have ability, at his best, to not get tackled by the oppositions attackers when he should. Then have composure to hit a target.
  16. That is not what I am commenting on. You are defending Grimes with stats and I am saying that you must interpret stats with a grain of salt, sometimes the whole salt shaker. But I do agree with you, there are more people in the side that do do this as well. I don't know what it is, but whenever Grimes gets the ball in hand I cringe. His disposals are either a complete stuff up or non-theatening, (eg a 45 degree kick to the wing) Whereas, Howe shanked some kicks on the weekend, but the ones he gets right are dangerous and/or are through the corridor.
  17. This is the problem with stats, an errant handball to a team mate who is under pressure then gets tackled and we lose the ball. This goes down as an effective disposal to Grimes then goes down as a clanger or ineffective disposal to the team mate. When in reality it is Grimes' mistake.
  18. Just like those intelligent Collingwood supporters
