We have significant midfield depth issues. When Brayshaw went down I was hoping Sparrow could stand up and provide some cover. He was incredibly disappointing and having only 2 disposals to half time for a midfielder is simply unacceptable. Working out what exactly his role is confusing. At some stage he needs to step up and not live off just getting 12-15 disposals per game. With Jordon, Harmes and Dunstan potentially all gone, this will now cut deep with midfield experience and depth. Unfortunately I don't know what's out there in terms of midfield depth. My hope is a out of the blue scenario ala Lachie Hunter.

I know you mentioned he apparently played a good game up forward yesterday but can you delve a bit more in depth? Like did he kick goals? Take a couple of contested marks etc?

I've mentioned this previously when he announced his retirement that I'd happily take him on a 1 year deal with transition into a forwards coach. Imagine the leadership and tactical nous he could provide for the likes of JVR, Jefferson and Petty. We're lacking genuine leadership up forward and I think he'd be a perfect foil for Petty and JVR as they continue to develop their forward craft. Put it this way, I would have much rather a Jack Riewoldt playing on Thursday night then a Tom McDonald.

The issue is that there's no genuine key forwards in the market at the end of the year. Aaron Naughton comes out of contract at the end of 2024 and there was some talk that we showed interest last year.

From 4th position since 2000, no one has won the flag.

I wish we had Cerra 😭

Apparently played forward today and played well?

Said this when we played Sydney but Tom McCartin is a seriously good defender

The crowd noise that Sydney and Collingwood bring is amazing..

Sheesh what a comeback..

Bravo post once again Laze. So sick of people calling others on here "heros" because they simply were trying to look at it at a different view in terms of a footy action that wasn't orchestrated well. There were far worse and disgusting things said stemming from the Brayshaw incident.. funny that.. We all know that Maynard is one of thr biggest thugs in the game and we're all feeling sick in the stomach about Brayshaw. Maynard will cop his weeks and hope that means season over for him. Great post once again.

Spargo will come in for Laurie you'd think

I've seen enough. It's Carlton next week.

Sydney have settled well after a shaky start.

How did Grundy play? My guess is he'll next week for JVR.

Laura Kane already triggering Collingwood supporters lol

JVR out with a 1 match ban. Looks like Grundy is in.

Don't mind Duursma from Port. Would be an upgrade on the likes of Jordon.

Mandatory 12 day off concussion. Get him back for preliminary final if we get there.

Agree Laze.

Midfield depth and a change of game style with our forward entries is what needs to occur over the off season

Source? Who impressed?

Drugs has fried Swannys small brain here.

Of JVR gets rubbed put they'll bring in Grundy purely because Rooey has been the second ruck.
