unless Frost can run up and place the ball in his teammates hands, he will have to kick or handball at some stage. Which often doesn't quite hit the target stifling momentum as they re-gather the footy, or just kicks a howler or two resulting in easy goals. Clarkson is slowly assembling a far less skilled disposal side, which makes it difficult to maintain possession. frost will have good runs of game for sure but even those will be peppered with atrocious mistakes. This is Frost. He does the difficult exceptionally well and the basics exceedingly poorly.

if this was the 80s. yes. but all forward have to clock up the Kms now.

He has more potential than Omac to me. but its still early days. his improvement is promising.

yes but there is massive massive pressure on clubs to improve for memberships, sponsorship and to move up the ladder. I have no doubt most clubs are impatient and for instance its much hard to prize a first rounder this year than next year from any club.

any insights who else we rate early on for pick 8 >

this superbly summed up what we don't do well and why I think Thomlinson will be valuable. He naturally takes up the spare ground and stops easy ball on the outside. a lot of winning is what happens off the ball and cutting off easy options, so the opposition has to take risks. Langdons pace and outside run will help as well.

One averages 25 disposals , the other is a one trick pony with poor awareness, average kicking skills and very poor handballing skills.

We should split pick 97

wonder who we will use 97 on.

This just got interesting. we have to talk to him now. would love to see him on the 'G.

what about the upgrading to pick 4 to get Oliver ? numbers can be important.

anything to upset Carlton is worthy of consideration.

We lost pick 26 in this weeks draft. We have no second and third rounder.

He’s a Gun at throwing out valuable second rounders for nothing.

I don’t get it. It’s backing ourselves to be top of the table !! We can come 7th and we will definitely still lose. I cannot get it. Even if we do really well next year we still lose. Explkain that to me ?

It does show how ridiculous this trade is. Even if north fail to choose anyone good and we do it’s still will not make sense to me. This first ronuder cost us a first and second rounder, which buys you an A grader. Just stupid.

You think? This trade looks ridulously one sided. We have no second rounder for no reason and It’s quite reasonable we finish back in the pack next year, with North benefiting greatly. For the board to agree to do this gives me little faith.

because you can turn at 20s pick into Melksham, Hibberd, Forst, Fritsch types. They are definitely worth something. Its like you are saying their is the first round then the rest is a lottery.

This literally looks like the worst trade of picks I have ever seen. We gain pick 8 and hope we beat pick 8 next year by jumping up 7 places (i.e become 10th) just to draw even, THEN throw in a second rounder ? then a third rounder? Absolutely ridiculous trading. please tell me this is not true, 3 picks for 1. There has to be a v good 2nd rounder pick coming back

list clogger.

tore us apart at the 'G this year. Thomlinson likes the 'G as well

basically for Hawks second rounder next year. fair deal.

well pick 6 and a second rounder is rejected. so we'd need two top picks to get the job done. Freo are impossible under Bell.

who told you that ?
