meek is the best ruck they've got, dont be fooled by the sean darcy is the second coming of sandilands nonsense. and treacy has done bits since getting rookied and is more than capable to replace his work i50. lobb has been lying to himself his whole career pretending he's not a ruckman. he's very ordinary as a forward hardly ever kicks proper bags and definitely doesn't tally big goals/season

the way i'm reading it, bowey in for jetta at HT/3qrt & laurie for jones at same time vanders in from the get go due to no oliver, viney, gus. the correct way to use him in the squad he's not a best 22 player - full stop. keen to see sparrow, jj, harmes from the get go petty to swap out for tomlinson or to give may/lever a rest as someone on the last page suggested bedford might get a quarter late for chandler/anb i really hope mcdonald isn't playing wing and we're playing small ball in the forward line. u still need to structure up around a tall who isn't a second year player @ goodwin

melky and tmac already have '22 contracts

monday morning @ whitten oval

do you just intentionally misspell their names?

absolute star, when he grew the hair and beard out, had to rep him

grundy had a poor year based on his extremely lofty standards and was still top 3 rucks in the comp last season, collingwood will definitely not regret their decision at all. and you reward your captain for their importance to the club as a whole and the extra work they put in off field to lead and create culture and represent the club? how can you not understand any of that

this, and also he's a 30yo on a list clearly bottoming out and would just hold back younger types if he stuck around any longer could be a gun, could be another nietschke hardly a comparison to us and majak. one club wants to play september the other is at the beginning of a rebuild

it's not really great list management really, the competition average every single season is 8 per team add in the shrinking list and it's just standard procedure

mckay rolled an anke tonight, curnow LTI, mcgovern injured, casboult injured, TDK injured, he'll do a year of insurance and then i'd imagine make way

Round 1 ? it in? Lever 8 May 1 Hibberd 14 Hunt 29 Tomlinson 20 Rivers 24 Langdon 15 Brayshaw 10 Harmes 4 Fritsch 31 McDonald 25 Sparrow 32 Pickett 36 Jackson 6 Spargo 9 Gawn 11 Oliver 13 Petracca 5 Chandler 37 Jordon 23 Jones 2 Salem 3

no - cal moore of richmond previously and carlton listed in '20 is also training on and named on the I/C tonight. another tall type

everyone's so reactionary, just let it play out. this thread has now ruled out Daw, Kobe thread has a line through him and not a single person has any credible source. the only way to look at it is that we have 4 available slots and no one has been turned down yet so they're all still a chance

i think it's recorded way earlier in the week hence why last year they had to delay an ep when they broke josh wagner getting picked but had to wait for team announcement

maybe true but its inevitable he starts the season in

based on? half as good as a 5 game player? sheesh

Pickett and Brayshaw are comfortably best 22, theres no way to spin that. why would you not want our best players playing if they're available that's enough to win our club goalkicking in the last two seasons, seems pretty unfair

he wanted to cross the border? and we offered him more than others to convince him to join us ahead of a queue of suitors

that screams i played most-every game and therefore accumulated votes on merit without actually doing anything of note from friday's side to round 1 i suspect it will be OUT: Baker, Jetta, ANB IN: Brayshaw, Hibberd, Pickett and jones for viney the following week or maybe an underwhelming chandler? which would be disappointing imo

whilst the nab league has gone to 19yo's im not sure if it affects the academies and nga tied-ness of "mature" players? happy to be corrected if anyone has an official source saying otherwise but thats my understanding. is it just is raised to allow exposure to players who didnt get any

this couldn't be more obvious right now than at NM, will phillips everyone expected to walk in and deliver in their midfield instead Powell, Lozarro and Ford were picked ahead and spicer is equally in the mix as new draftees

maybe not a cut but definitely front loaded i'd imagine given the OOC players in the future they'd be absorbing more now while clarry/trac/salo and the younger boys are on smaller deals

lockhart took 12 days ?‍♂️

was it not this time last year where we were screaming out for anyone under 180cm to do something in the forward half? and now you're complaining that we've looked at too many? a non t.mcdonald need. whether we intended to use him on a wing but the lack of KF means he's there now so we need someone for the near side with tomlinson going back is the case? or as a backup to lever as an interceptor without hore? who knows but i think it's a good sized addition to the list

false, the SSP thread said 6 (not sure how accurate) but richmond had 5 when mansell, egg, josh green and gallucci and the other lad whose name escapes me were all training
