Champion player.

I remember getting all these articles back in 2019.

Yeah a certain top 5 pick imo. I don't think he falls to our pick but if we continue to fall further back then who knows.

I'm a big believer that 2023 is up there with 1998 as the biggest missed opportunity of a flag. All the stats in the land had us pretty much the number 1 ranked team of the competition. This is controversial from my end but losing Melksham from our forward line was a bigger loss then Brayshaw. When he went down our forward line lost all its system and leadership. He was the captain we needed up forward to galvanise our set up and then it's he's ability to engage with the number 1 defender to not only take him out of the game but hurt on the scoreboard just completely hurt us. No one will ever change my mind, but absolutely 2023 was the biggest missed opportunity for a flag from our end.

A draft stacked with midfield talent is perfect because that has to be our number 1 priority.

Thought he was going to be a gun for us. How wrong was I.

Agree with everything about this. Well summed up.

He's not wrong.

Psychologically we are. They're a big club with a huge supporter base that can overwhelm any team going around. Look at the way they drowned the boos out everytime Maynard touched the footy. We don't have the mongrel or killer instinct in our team. We're a mentally soft football club on field and have been for a number of year. When you have guys like May and Oliver who are happy to smile and shake hands with the opposition then it just resonates the soft underbelly tag we've carried for so long.

Lol Sparrow..

He's a liability. Forget past individual awards but he's killing us in games because he's a turnover merchant who coughs the ball way too easily by stupid dump kicks. He's playing like a sub par VFL standard footballer with the rubbish he's trotting out each week. He's also in poor condition and it shows in games. Other then the doggies game this year he's been incredibly poor all year.

I miss the days of Tom Bugg, Bernie Vince (Dangerfield Ike scrag), Jake Spencer and Michael Hibberd. Guys who were always willing to fly the flag and show a bit of fight.

He was in pain mate.

He's delusional as they come.

Then why go and chase him? Myself and many more on here raised concerns around this strategy when it first came out that we were chasing Grundy. It made zero sense at the time even with Jackson leaving. Jackson could at least pinch hit up forward where as Grundy never played there in his life. Tim Lamb record of late has been abysmal of late and he needs to come under intense scrutiny for botching our list management of late.

Mcdonald, Max, JVR, Pickett and to some degree Rivers were were the only highlights for me.

Wrong thread

Quoting this as a reminder of how embarrassing of a display we dished out with these guys missing.

Bizarre that after last week's smashing we go with the same Petty and Turner forward set up.

Pack your bags Simon, you're done.. While you're at it take Richo, Pert, Roffey, Chaplin, Williams, Stafford and Tim Lamb with you on the way out.

Of course they won't.. happy to get stuck into others when opinions and the narrative doesn't suit their own agenda.

Roffey and Pert can join too. Club stinks from top to bottom.

I agree, enough is enough. See you later Goodwin.

Can we make up a rule where you can make an extra sub so we can get Oliver off the ground for good? The guy is absolutely killing us
