Hoffman is both a good human and a natural leader. He also communicates well. Good get.

pretty poor that the guys don't have access to a toilet nearby.. which begs the question, what do our girls do? it shouldn't be the way. not a big deal if they were playing out in the sticks, but they are a professional club playing on a major arterial road with fans watching.. not good enough :-/

nahhhh, doesn't strike me as THAT guy.. seems like a lovely kid really.

as much as i believe that our forward problem has mainly been due to delivery by our mids/wingers and coaching style (surely!), i think that this led to our forward not leading correctly and also getting in each others way. a strong forward coach would have stamped that [censored] out from day one, but it somehow persisted in a professional setting.. fingers crossed something changes. i am hopeful as a hell of a lot will have changed since mid-2025.

some foot skills/speed if possible

Byrnes highlights look waaaaay better than Dovaston's.. He looks like his skills could translate to AFL.

watching from northern nsw last weekend i was super proud of the girls - especially that last quarter! love mick stinnear's passion and how close he is with them. great team. good range of skills and personalities!

am i blind, or was noah h-h missing too?!

not quite

early days still, but King's energy is good stuff. love how he communicates. some humour, approachability, but also clearly demands respect. look forward to seeing him hopefully hand out the new guernseys on wednesday night to our new young fellas.

he's been releasing stuff prior to this video.. he seems to have great insight and can unpack things for us punters. plus, he played at the highest level.. i'd argue no one has said anything ground-breaking about the Dees at this point. but what he has said in this video and in ruck-specific content before has been insightful and well worth the praise that he gets on here.

Cumming looks so much like an Essendon player..

i'd almost attempt to move up to take him.. most impressive player in my eyes. competitive, hard, skills.

he does things that dovaston just cannot do. do not see why dovaston is rated at all really. verrrrrry vanilla. LSP could be a great player, or not, but i'd rather have a crack. no doubt he wouldn't be boring!

a dons fan you say?.. well that's certainly a mark in the 'cons' column.

i agree, i saw him as a mid-fwd, as opposed to a medium sized forward. good but good size too.

very unexcited by dovaston.. despite the need for a small, i don't think we'll select him. hopefully there's a better small in next year's draft. i'd rather get a few more mids. need foot-skills and speed and another young inside mid to grow..maybe a KPF/B if one is there at our pick and JT likes what he sees.

super exited to have him around the club.. generally happy with all the pick-ups really. love some speed though. we needed more in the back half and now we have it.

you've only JUST unfollowed him??! a year too late..

disappointing that he made sense... taking the easy option/less attacking option. remember in 2016-2020 when we would just over-handball (clarry in particular, but a lot of the team)? hand-balling to stationery targets and hand-balling almost for the sake of hand-balling... no sense. our coaching has been pretty ****ty (goes without saying) for a long time now.

might we be about to be the biggest possible baddie and nick one of the suns' prized recruits/bid for them at 7 & 8 (if that's what we get for CP?).. I would love to become the villain at trade time instead of the 'easy beat'. like 75% of the supporters on here and social media, i'm [censored] off that we are looking like bending over this trade period (even more than normal). SURELY, they have something planned.. SURELY. surely?.. we must be one of the most undesirable clubs going. the only positives i can see are, we play the MCG for home games and that we have Gawn and Kozzy and maybe a few POTENTIAL young stars coming up. i had been quite positive about King's appointment, but geez.. not sure to make of things if the cards fall like we are all expecting :-/

although some have said that he is not a contested player (true), i stand by the statement that he is hard at it (stands up in collisions and puts his body on the line).

if we do end up gulp with picks 7 & 8, i'm liking Robey and Lindsay. surprised that no one has mentioned Lindsay. antother with great foot skills & looks hard at it too. potential mid?
