The Roan Steele Thread
No big loss. Just another Osker Baker/Rohan Bail type who can run but is an absolute butcher by trade with his foot skills. Folks melting over him is priceless.

Who is our next captain?
18 months ago I would have said Lever, but his body is cooked and he doesn't have the on field performance and influence like he previously had. He'll be lucky to hold his spot next year alone. Petracca may be next in line but whether he's willing to stick with the club for a bit is another question. As a leader, you've gotta not only be able to influence off the field but also on field performance on a week to week basis. Having that presence in being able to influence games in big moments where teammates are inspired to follow. This is why guys like Garry Lyon, David Neitz, Nathan Jones and Max Gawn were so good at it. Chandler and Sparrow are no where that calibre and never will be. They are far too inconsistent and rarely impact games enough on a weekly level. One name to keep an eye on for the future is Xavier Lindsay. Highly rated at Gippsland Power for his leadership and maturity. I do know for a fact staff and players at the club have been really impressed with the way he has conducted himself on and off the field.

It’s over - if you’re CEO, what’s the fix?

Duursma is just a half forward version of Cale Morton. Yuk.- Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
They've both just kicked a goal.- Jason Taylor - visionary or overrated
Curtin looks like an absolute gun.- Jason Taylor - visionary or overrated
Jury is still out with both.- POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast
Goodwin is done. He'll coat an arm ans leg to get rid of the coach but we need to start head-hunting whether we need the right fit or not.- CASEY: Rd 14 vs Gold Coast
Plugger Kentfield- Blake Howes Re-Signs Until 2027
He and McVee tagged team and completely shut Bobby Hill down on Kings birth and then backed it by doing the same on Willie Rioli. Hes doing his job and doing it well. That's why hes picked. You've picked out the most obscure deficiencies that anyone has seen.- PREGAME: Rd 1 6 vs Gold Coast
Loved all the selections until I saw Sharps name.. Good lord......- TRAINING: Thursday 26th June 2025

Great decision.- Time to go Goody?
I think Gaz was just as confused as all of us.- Time to go Goody?
Was that around the forward entry stuff?- Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
Okay sure. On the naked eye then, he's a poor kick in general. Simple as that.- Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
Im not deriding Hunt at all. I'm only speaking of what the reality and truth is and that is, Jayden Hunt was simply poor by foot. He had everyone you wanted in a modern footballer except he would butcher the footy coming out of defence, pure and simple I liked Hunty more then anyone and thought he was the most unluckiest player in 2021. Had it not been for that ankle injury late, we'd be lauding him as a premiership player.- CASEY: Rd 14 vs Gold Coast
A senior game at 9:35am?? What are they, under 12's? Bizarre scheduling.- We're Not Dead Yet - The 2025 Season
- Archie Walsh - 2025 F/S Potential
Yes- Archie Walsh - 2025 F/S Potential
Time to keep a closer eye on Archie. Made his reserves debut yesterday for West Adelaide and had 26 disposals and 11 marks. This is off the back of two straight week of 36 disposal game against Norwood and backed it up with a 38 disposal game a week later.- Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
I'm fine with where he was picked. But I beg to differ about his kicking. It's poor in my opinion. On effective disposal so far in his career hes rated as 'below average' thats including last year. He has time on his hand but history will say it can be difficult to turn a poor kick into a good one.- Welcome to Demonland: Caleb Windsor
