No.

And now I've missed the cut off editing time.. 🙄

A good move..

No one other then Brisbane was ever getting him. The fact that it took for us at pick 5 to bid on him is a disgrace to the system in itself.

Fixed

I see Roy George was with Kozzie yesterday doing a boxing and cardio session according to his insta. Sharp to a wing isn't all that big of a surprise. It's clear Goodwin rates the wing position and to play that role, you obviously need greater running capacity to grind up and down all day long. Shape has this in spades. The only thing I will question this is whether Sharp has the football intelligence of Langdon in being able to execute the role as good as he does.

Funny enough when I was reading the Carlton bigfooty forum, majority of their supporters wanted Langford over Jagga.

It was Jagga.

Pretty sure you've missed @Its Time for Another point here. He's not saying that Sharp will come in and have the immediate impact that Nibs did but more so that eventually he'll play that role well and potentially be an upgrade over time because based off his observations he feels that he's got a better skill set then ANB. It's interesting that you're comparing a 21 year old Sharp to a 28 players that's played over 150 games at AFL and a premiership player. If you go back to around the same age bracket as Sharp, then ANB was pretty much in a similar position to where Sharp is now. He was a battler who was in and out of the senior team. Don't forget also that we put Nibbler on the trade table at the end of 2020 when he was 24 years of age and by luck we had no club interested in him at the time. Respectfully, @Its Time for Another did also say there is no guarantees that Sharp even gets to that level, purely based on observations and opinion.

Enjoy.

A great insight. Thanks Kevie.

Played against this bloke years ago just after he left Collingwood. Without doubt one of the most naturally gifted players I've come across at country league level. Really sad that he had to retire from AFL level with his heart condition.

Ok

There is no way Sparrow is in our best 22 once everyone is up and firing. He was dropped at the back end of the year when our midfield was pretty depleted and that to me was a big statement. He hasn't shown an ounce of improvement since 2021 and with guys like Tholstrup, Langford, and Sharp all coming in as extra mid/forward depth then he's no way guaranteed a spot every week.

You could make a good argument for Mentha also.
