He displays run. His kicking is poor. This isn't hard to see. Right now, its on par with Jayden Hunt who was horrible by foot. Hopefully Windsor can I.prove on that.

I think I'll take the actual recruiter on face value that openly admits what player they're planning on recruiting 24 hours prior, which has zero mention of Windsor..

These are the numbers below. I agree its aren't linear but its a roughly a good guide. I still have the up most faith in JVR that he can be our number one key forward in years to come. Like any young key forward hes going through a slump due to a combination of our poor delivery and forward connection as as well his limited game time and using him as a 2nd ruck. My belief in JVR is that he needs to be left in the senior team. alongside Jefferson for the rest of the year so they continue to gain the experience and forward synergy required as a partnership.

See this is where I know you're not watching Caddy. You said he didn't have the contested marking trait of Curnow at similar age which I then provided evidence that shows otherwise that he actually did. You're now saying its a physicality thing that he has over Caddy, which again shows that one Caddys biggest strengths is his physicality and ability to impose on games with his size. Something a lot of recruiters made note of in his draft year. And the the last part about GWS taking Windsor with their first pick? That's factually incorrect mate and you're making things up. Go to 0:46 of this video and the answer will be provided for you.

Do I think Caddy careers will project the same way as Curnow? No.. but is he showing every bit of talent to suggest hes going to be one of the star forwards of the competition in years to come potentially? Yes. I'm not saying we made a draft blunder because I think Windsor will come good eventually, but right now our club is screaming for a Caddy type forward. Even in a [censored] Essendon team (we're not much better) the fact that hes making an impact as well as hitting the scoreboard in a team with poor delivery suggest that with more size and experience, he'll be their main focal point for the next 15 odd years.

You laugh at the Curnow comparison straight after you just compared Windsor's output to Gulden.. eek. Similar age? Let's take a look huh.

Sydney players were glad to see the back of him.

You can build a premiership team around a gun CHF or gun CHB. I'm not downplaying Windsor's talent but you can pluck a wingman from anywhere that can give you 25 plus possessions off a wing. It's the rare hybrid forwards like Caddy that are completely hard to find and we've learnt that the hard way. I find it strange you think a wingman is a better fit for our list then the gun up and coming key forward that is literally what our list is crying out for. Caddy has all the traits to be a Charlie Curnow type forward imo. I think Windsor will be a solid player, but his disposal by foot is pretty poor and this is something im confident he can't work on. Right now, he is rated as below average for effective kicks.

Yeah nah. I'm an ex Yarrawonga boy and still have many contacts there through mates and family. He may have won them a premiership but he was incredibly toxic off field. Club was glad to see the back of him. Wasn't well liked at Sydney either. Guy is a grub.

Deary me..

I think the casualty may have to be Melksham unfortunately. Our season is shot and whilst hes been a great servant, similar to McDonald, we may need to look past him towards the future. Jefferson is part of our future moving forward, Melksham isn't. I think Fritsch form has been fine for now is starting to find his groove, so he stays in for me.

Shock horror.. 17 year old playing first ever senior game makes a minor mistake.

If we do go down the track of untried coaches I would strongly be looking at Brett Montgomery from GWS.

Just seen the new thread.. can delete if you want.

Has he depared the club?? I saw this on LinkedIn which was posted 18 hours ago but seems the link isn't working? I presume not considering its not on the official pages.

How did you come to the conclusion that what he said was a cheap shot? Lol.. Hes not wrong at all nor was Riewoldt getting personal. Didn't call him soft or anything but made a statement that 95% of the AFL population would agree on. I've seen Trac go back with the flight of the ball previously before injury. Clearly hes still got trauma around this and Riewoldt was fine with his argument.

Not only that, he doesn't punish sides on the scoreboard. Hes a small forward who opposition teams barely put any attention into because they know he isn't going to cause any damage or chaos. For the 9 games he's played this year he has only kicked just the one goal.

Howes was fine today and other then a turnover like majority of all our players ye was fine today. Only a goose would rate his game as 'insipid' as clearly they weren't even watching the game.

He'll see out his contract. I've wanted him gone since the Gold Coast game but after realising the cost if the club sacked him would be enormous. This club is due for a fresh and new voice.

Have had an absolute gut full of our senior players. Viney, Oliver, Petty, Sparrow, Chandler, Lever and Petracca. Why we signed to a further 4 years is one of the more bizarre list management decisions we've seen. Time to cut our losses with Oliver and thank him for his services. Lever can leave for all i care...
