  1. Luke 'Jolly' Jackson understudy until he gets traded and wins 2 flags
  2. You're absolutely on the mark, unlike Jimmy
  3. Sadly we think the comp is singing kumbaya and preaching the good faith of win/win outcomes, when really they all want us to lose at their expense and will take advantage of us thinking 'being good to deal with' has future benefits..
  4. Maybe they're keen on Young, Ash or Kemp etc and want us to think they'll take Pickett..
  5. Maybe the GWS/Dogs/Hawks are all just bluffing so we'll leave the players they actually want alone...?
  6. Can we get the target holder in the cheer squad to hold it behind the point post to correct his kicking for goal once he marks it?
  7. Maybe should change username to JakovichBackInjury
  8. HB: Preuss, Gawn, Jackson
  9. Sports day with Dwayne & Gerard was pretty good. I preferred getting a daily summary and discussion from them, over any SEN content this year.
  10. Now that we've got a ruck stocks settled, the question that bugs me is: which premier young ruck will we draft in 2030 when Jackson is nearing his final years before retirement? We need to be pooling our resources into scouting the under 10's around the country in preparation for that draft. We can't win premierships, but we certainly know how to recruit the best ruckmen. Dwyer, Stynes, White, Jamar, Gawn, Jackson, ??? Not to be disparaging to our great rucks, but would it hurt to think about adding skillful kickers of the ball first and finding a mature age ruckmen without a top pick later, for a change. I would suggest the Tigers are happy they picked Martin with pick 3 instead of Gawn, and then filled their ruck stock with Nankervis from a junk pick 6 years later. All of this talk about our premiership window being open next year and beyond, but suddenly the same believers are fawning over using our best first round pick in years on a great ruckman/serviceable forward in 2024+ ??
  11. Weideman at home doing some gardening?
  12. Athletic midfield ruck automatically equals good forward? - Do Brodie Grundy or Nic Nat dominate in their brief stints as a KPF? Is Rory Lobb worth pick 3?
  13. Maybe we should just play Hayden Young at full forward 'Jaydn Stephenson style' with pick 3 and with his accuracy and speed, have him kick them from all angles and distances ? ahaha
  14. Luke 'Jacko' Jackson up forward in the royal blue... Seems kind of familiar.
  15. i struggle to do 3km
  16. Not to suggest we should copy a recently successful teams drafting strategy. Only to say that if they liken him to being a Selwood replacement, gee we could use even a first year-Selwood rotating through the midfield at some point later in the year. And the years beyond? Hell yeah. Are small forwards that hard to find via trading/rookie'ing? Papley, Martin, Gray, Betts all up for grabs this year. Why wouldn't it be the same as the years go on?
  17. ... Maybe that's a sign that we should be drafting Kemp instead.

    Quick question, if that salary takes him up to being worth a first round pick, then when he comes into free agency (2020 or 2021**?) - won't they effectively be getting pick 2 compo again with their wooden spoon? The salary cap hit makes sense then if so?
