Take your pick, Atley worth a look of HB? http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-07-03/on-the-market-free-agents-still-up-for-grabs

I'd go hell for leather at Steven May, I think we need an experienced defender whos a leader, Lever can be third man up where he plays his best. We still don't know what our best 22 is, where do we play Tmac? Does Omac continue to get a game? Hogan needs to play forward. Does Weid fit in? It's all very unsettled. But I think we need that KPD. Frost is obviously out of favour, Petty is a long way off and who knows with Kielty. We need some pace obviously, another Saad tupe who breaks the game open off HBF, develop and go over and beyond with Hunt. We need to rebuild the defence with experience, I don't think J Smith is the answer, Jetta is getting older too.

Who was playing CHB and FB last year when we didn't have Lever and Tmac went forward? Obviously Omac was one, who was the other and how did we structure up? Was it Frost, cant remember.

This concerns me. They are busting their gut in close with bash and crash but it must be sapping their confidence from all the effort and no results, lets hope we don't capitulate from here.

That's disgusting to watch. How lazy

I think we need more than one, 4-5 runners and receivers needed. Essendon have Saad and McKenna tearing it up at the moment who are breaking games open

Yep I know you have that opinion of Gaff, but who else would you choose if not him? Mahoney says we have enough room for 1 maybe 2 stars. Vince may retire and free some up and potentially Lewis and Jones next year.

Who would you choose if not Gaff?

Has anyone seen much of Jack Martin this year and is he gettable or worthy?

Yep the form of these two have hurt us this year badly, besides Gaff I'd like us to bring in some Saad types, I can't even think of any worth pursuing that's close to out of contract, anyone have any ideas? We have tried but kind of failed in Scully, Toumpas, Salem didn't turn out to be the pacey player I thought.

Are there issues with Pert or the way it was handled? What could Pert do to destroy the club? Am just interested that's all as obviously I don't know him personally

Feel for the kid and I just hope he isn't ruined by yesterday. Going by people who watch VFL, match day reports and Goodwins comments, I thought he was ready, but it may take a year or two. Sounds like he works hard but just hope his mind holds up, coaches should have recognised very early he was getting isolated, but didn't seem to help him out.

I think we’ll make it just, but only make up the numbers. Scary thing is, we hardly have any injuries, if we get a couple it could get ugly.

I think he should grow a brain first

He also ran 16.5kms, the most by any player on the ground. 1.2kms more than next best

Mine too and it was 100% truth.

Thanks mate, appreciate it

9 disposals in the last term....

A good Friday laugh, thank you!

@Demonland is there any way to mute/permanently ignore threads? Also, when putting posters on ignore and others reply to them, their posts still show in quotes, can this be fixed so we don't see said posters content? TIA

Agree. Petracca, Hunt and Garlett a big let down for the club this year and also the unlucky Lever injury.

Good luck young fella. If I had to guess, looking at the Frost and Pedersen situations, Petty will get the 3 easier games, Pedersen playing CHB at Casey gets him back up to speed with defence and if Petty doesn't work out then he'll come in to replace him. Frost may as well seek offers now, papers stamped by the looks.

Self planted rumour by Collingwood saying he'll sign with them!

Best of luck Jack, he deserves the best in life not only footy, good things come to those who wait, it's now his time for some luck.

Needs to lose 8kg, if that’s bulk, then he still has to lose it. 96kgs looks to heavy for him onfield, unless he’s carrying an injury which I’m starting to think he might be? May explain his lack of effort, unless he’s of course just a lazy player. His fatness disgusts me too, I wish my fat was like that
